That's where the benefits of free trade come in -- as it stands now, importing goods from Wyver is expensive, if not bordering on impossible. If foreign merchants were held to the same standards as those who live and work here in their own respective city, there would be a greater incentive for businesses to expand.

[So no extra complicated taxes, tariffs... there were definitely pros and cons to it, but seeing as it was chiefly trade between just two countries, it shouldn't be too complicated to figure out.]

Of course, I imagine there may be some friction after being implemented... we wouldn't want local businesses to think that their government is turning their backs on them.

It's important to consider every outcome when dealing with a delicate situation like this.
