Kiygrava occupies a roughly wedge-shaped territory in the Kiravian Northeast. It borders the states of [[Livella]] and [[Eredlina]] to the east, the Íravokan Sea (a margin of the [[Kilikas Sea]]) to the north, the Aquaric Ocean to the southeast (sharing maritime boundaries with [[Niyasca]] and [[Endivéga]]) , and [[Arcvera]] to the west. The Kiygrava River, for which the state is named, is fed by mountain springs just north of the state's geographic centre, and flows toward the southeast through the Kiygrava River Valley, ultimately bisecting the Iyaspala Peninsula before emptying into the Aquaric Ocean at Valëka.

The state is quasi-officially divided into five geographic and economic regions: the Estuary-Insular region or Lower Kiygrava (comprising the Valēka metropolitan area), Upper Kiygrava (the northern Iyaspala peninsula and the heavily-populated Kiygrava River Valley), Northern Kiygrava (encompassing the area between the source of the Kiygrava River and the Íravokan coast), and Aterandic Kiygrava (the mountainous regions on either side of the River Valley). Lower Kiygrava is heavily urbanised and highly developed, owing to the concentric rings of sattelite cities and suburbs radiating outward from Valēka, though areas of the northern shore of the Iyaspala peninsula and the outer islands are more exurban. Though less extensively developed than Lower Kiygrava, Upper Kiygrava is characterised by exurban and rural areas of smallholds, poultry farms, and dairies, punctuated by medium-sized industrial cities such as Traur, ~~Xæluret~~, and Evira. Moving northward along the Kiygrava River, the cities give way to large towns and finally to smaller towns of 1-5,000 people, with the state capital of Alëdmar (population 212,000) being by far the largest city in the region.

While Lower Kiygrava and the southern portions of Upper Kiygrava are ethnically diverse, Northern Kiygrava and the northern reaches of Upper Kiygrava have remained predominantly Sedhem since colonisation. Though there is some industry in Northern Kiygrava, concentrated along the Íravokan coast, the hilly uplands are more agrarian and markedly less populated than either the estuary or river valley. Still, the region is more densely populated than the Aterandic mountain areas, which are home to small, scattered hamlets and isolated dwellings inhabited by Sedhem and Kiravite Aboriginals.

===Ethnic Groups===

Paisonic Coscivians are the largest single ethnic group in Kiygrava, followed by Sedhan Coscivians, [[Ensciryan Coscivians|Æran Coscivians]], [[Taństem Coscivians]], and Gaels, but the state is home to members of virtually every Coscivian ethnic group, as well as many non-Coscivian peoples, ranging from Gaels to [[~~Alkharvis|Alkharvis~~]] to the indigenous Tapkek.

There are two socially distinct populations of [[Taństan Coscivians]] in Kiygrava: The Green Taństans, who have deeper roots in Kiygrava, usually pre-Kirosocialist, and the Blue Taństans, who are the product of more recent waves of migration from the Northeastern states and elsewhere. The two groups are so named for their alignment in [[Intracity Sporting Rivalry in Valēka|Valēka's intracity sporting rivalry]]: older Taństan families in Valēka mostly support the Valēka Metropolitans (who wear green uniforms), while newer arrivals mostly support the Valēka Emperors or the Béyasar Blues (both of whom wear blue uniforms).

Line 189:

The city of [[Cities of Kiravia#Xanten|Xanten]] is the seat of the Coscivian Orthodox Church. Coscivian Orthodoxy is the traditional faith of Kiygrava's largest ethnic group, the Paisonic Coscivians, as well as of other ethnic groups with large populations in Kiygrava, such as the Kālatans, Ardónians, {etc.}

Over three quarters of Kiravians who profess the Jewish faith live in Kiygrava, with most belonging to the Avramem Coscivian ethnic group and practicing {{wp|~~Modern~~ Orthodox Judaism}}. The Avramem population is concentrated in Canova, West Valēka, County Ālkūdan, County Tapanin, and County Séarlas.
