San Juan

This is the great port city of Puerto Rico, and one of the most powerfully fortified of all cities in Spanish America, looking east out to the Atlantic and welcoming ships from Spain and their allies. San Juan was settled early and remains a bastion of old Spanish aristocracy. The island has few exports, but its garrison is maintained none-the-less as a symbol of strength. Prices for all goods except food are high, and most times Spanish law is vigorously enforced. Ultimately it becomes a base for Costa Guarda raids on the Caribees.
