Logres, the capital and largest city of Avalon, is situated in the northwestern region of the main island, nestled between the eastern shore of Aldenn Cape and the expansive Blue Bay. With a population of around 240,000, Logres serves as the heart of Avalon's economic and governmental activity. It is not only the kingdom's administrative center but also a site of historical significance, believed to be the location of the first permanent settlement in Avalon. Uniquely, Logres is the only land directly administered by the King, free from the influence of any other assembly or authority. The city also hosts the permanent Royal Court of Avalon at Tintagel Castle, solidifying its status as the central hub of both political and royal power.
The National Druidic Temple occupies an entire wing of Tintagel Castle in Logres, the capital of Avalon. This temple, a blend of ancient tradition and modern reverence, is led by Druidess Morgan, the head of the National Druidry religion. The temple's chambers, adorned with vines and natural symbols, serve as both a place of worship and a center for learning the mysteries of the natural world. Druidess Morgan, known for her wisdom and authority, presides over the temple while wielding significant influence throughout the kingdom. Morgan, married to King Lennart of Avalon, maintains her own power as a religious leader. She holds a seat at the round table, symbolizing her equal status among the kingdom's most powerful figures. Her role represents the balance between spiritual and temporal power, as she advises on both state matters and sacred rites. Morgan’s influence extends beyond her marriage, rooted in her deep understanding of ancient traditions and her dedication to Avalon’s well-being.

The National Flag commonly receives the name of Triband flag and it symbolises the Celtic-Briton heritage (represented by the red dragon) and the power and Dignity of the Avalonian Monarchy since the days of King Arthur. Its use is regulated by law and necessary in any official act but you can burn it at demonstrations. Cops won't get mad and people won't riot over it. We're cooler than that.
For two years, between 2013 and 2015, a version of the Royal Banner (sometimes called the Welsh flag rip-off) was widely used and accepted as the main National flag, but a Decree from King Lennart restored the former flag on the 24th of July, 2015, to easily differentiate Government acts from purely Royal appearances and messages.
Avalon's naval jack and military flag is also used as an alternative flag in unofficial acts and sport events. It looks awesome because it has a cross on it, and everybody knows a cross makes a flag look a lot better.
