The nation's political hub, Frehmenwerth is also the key commercial entrepôt of the Upper [[Zalgis]] and serves as the gateway to southwestern Hendalarsk for domestic and international traffic from both the north and the east of the country, a role which has contributed to its commercial prominence since the medieval epoch. Although it has become displaced as the nation's ''primary'' commercial hub in recent decades by Zalgisbeck, with the latter's position on the [[Vandarch]] at the mouth of the Zalgis driving its growth, Frehmenwerth remains the nation's key financial centre and the home of its stock exchange, the [[HenBürs]], as well as the site of many ministries and institutes of government. Most foreign governments have their primary diplomatic bases in the city's World Quarter (''Weltviertel''), while the Lagyar Quarter (''Lungarviertel'') on the banks of the Zalgis is the nation's greatest concentration of 'classical culture' in the form of museums, theatres, galleries and concert venues. | The nation's political hub, Frehmenwerth is also the key commercial entrepôt of the Upper [[Zalgis]] and serves as the gateway to southwestern Hendalarsk for domestic and international traffic from both the north and the east of the country, a role which has contributed to its commercial prominence since the medieval epoch.

Frehmenwerth is the seat of the [[Thearch of Hendalarsk|Thearch]] of the [[Hendalarskara Catholic Church]], the supreme ecclesiastical authority of the Frehmenwerther faith. [[Sankt-Nikolaus-Kirche]] is the cathedral church of the Archdiocese of Frehmenwerth, and the Thearch is thus often referred to as the Archbishop of Frehmenwerth. Conclaves to elect a new Thearch are likewise held in the church upon the previous incumbent's death, resignation or deposition, and pilgrims flock to Frehmenwerth from across the nation for open-air services in the adjoining [[Maximilian's Square]] at key occasions in the ecclesiastical calendar such as Christmas, Good Friday, Easter Sunday and the Day of the Waters. | |||

Frehmenwerth is the association footballing capital of Hendalarsk, home to three established [[Hendalarskaras Bundesliga|Bundesliga]] sides and many additional lower-division teams. [[Lagyaria Vrémenverda]], often known as Lagyaria for short, represent the city's prominent Lagyar minority, while [[Frehmenwerther Kickers]] and [[Rapid-Frehmenwerth]] are two of the most successful sides in the country's history, regularly qualifying for continental competition and challenging for major honours. Their rivalry, contested in the Capital Derby, is arguably the league's fiercest, while both clubs also maintain a friendlier rivalry with Lagyaria. [[FK-FK-Arena]], Frehmenwerther Kickers' stadium, is additionally one of the largest sporting venues in the country, and is home to many of the male and female national teams' fixtures. | |||
Other sports, while not as popular as football, enjoy some popularity in the capital. Baseball does not have the same domestic prominence as in other Levantine nations like Urcea, but the Frehmenwerther Phalanx are the most well-supported team in the country. | |||
