Isabella is mainly made up of agricultural and farming land. Some would say that Isabella's figure-heads include the Turrans, and the Frankovich's. Isabella is large, spanning both sides of U.S. 2 several miles in each direction. One main cattle farmer in the area, John Frankovich, owns large plots of land in all directions.

He is the main local contact for the Frankovich's, which have main control on the south side (of U.S. 2). The Turrans, considered by most, have large influence over the northern region of Isabella. Their main influence, actually lies on the west side boundaries of Isabella, The Chambers'. (more soon)
