KINGDOM: Dawson City
One Throne Magazine is run from the heart of the Klondike: Dawson City, Yukon (far north of Canada) on the traditional land of the Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in First Nation.
Former Dawson writers include Jack London, Pierre Berton, and Robert Service.
The population of the "city" stands at around 2,000 and is packed with creative minds. Dawson has an art school, writer-in-residence program, an artist-in-residence program, one of Canada's largest music festivals, an annual printing and publishing symposium, short film festival, etc.
In 1957, Order of Canada recipient and local writer Pierre Berton narrated a short film about his hometown, which was nominated for an Academy Award. It's only 20 minutes and well worth viewing.
