'''Íarþasar''' (English: ''Weston'') is the largest city in [[Ilfenóra]] and among the largest directly on the West Coast. It is a major shipping port.

Due to changes in the economic environment and technology after liberalisation, Trár faced the challenge of transitioning from traditional heavy industry to a new economic base. This transition was difficult for the city, as it required significant changes to the local economy and workforce. Many workers who were trained in traditional manufacturing skills found it difficult to adapt to the new, more technologically advanced manufacturing processes, and the city experienced significant unemployment and population loss as displaced workers relocated to cities like Valēka with better job opportunities, leading to {{wp|urban decay}}, though the decline was not nearly as acute in Trár as it was in many inland industrial centres and smaller {{wp|monotown|monotowns}}. Local authorities have worked to encourage diversification of the economy and development of new industries, including technology and advanced manufacturing. The Trár-Tragen metropolitan area is the second-largest per-capita recipient of grant money from the federal [[Kiravian Development Executive#Structural Adjustment Fund|Structural Adjustment Funds]], much of which has been invested in education and training programs to help its workforce adapt to the changing economy and leave Trár better-equipped to weather economic downturns and changes in the global marketplace. Since the 2010s AD, Trár has experienced a pronounced economic upturn, due in large part to the relocation of some Valēka-based corporate headquarters to Trár's more affordable commercial real estate market and lower taxes. | Due to changes in the economic environment and technology after liberalisation, Trár faced the challenge of transitioning from traditional heavy industry to a new economic base.

Śervinak is seen as a working-class city inhabited by many of the dockworkers, construction personnel, and other blue- and grey-collar workers who keep the Federacy's largest city running, and most Śervinak residents have embraced this identity. The largest ethnic groups in the city are Æran Coscivians and Paisonic Coscivians, who each account for around one-quarter of the population. Eskean Coscivians, Cosco-Yetruenes, Damèts, Triathan Coscivians, Melotes, Kaśuvan Coscivians, Rumeli Coscivians, and [[Faneria|Fanerians]] are also present in significant numbers. The overwhelming majority of Śervinak residents are "Greens", meaning fans of the Valēka Metropolitans fieldball team in [[Intracity Sporting Rivalry in Valēka|the Valēka area's bizarre, politically-charged intracity sporting rivalry]], in contrast to neighbouring Cantrasar, which is populated almost entirely by "Blues" (fans of the opposing Valēka Conquerors). | Śervinak is seen as a working-class city inhabited by many of the dockworkers, construction personnel, and other blue- and grey-collar workers who keep the Federacy's largest city running, and most Śervinak residents have embraced this identity.

As is typical of the rest of the state, most Sarávak residents are Suderavian Coscivians, [[Fhainn]], Covines, or Skithanawites. Around five thousand Unintrans reside in the city. Most are expatriate Unintran nationals, though there are also a few naturalised or [[Civil status in Kiravia|meticised]] Unintran-Kiravians and a larger number of natural-born Kiravians of Kiravian and Unintran parentage. | As is typical of the rest of the state, most Sarávak residents are Suderavian Coscivians, [[Fhainn]], Covines, or Skithanawites.
