'''Iselin''' is a medium-sized industrial city in Niyaska's County Jeff. Founded as a mill town on the {{wp|fall line}} of the Niyaska seaboard by a colonist from the Coscivian province of Erasta named Ārvo Iselin, Iselin later acquired a sizeable population of craftsmen and eventually an ironworks. With the beginning of the industrial era in earnest, Iselin joined [[Cities of Kiravia#Parþotren|Parþotren]] and [[Cities of Kiravia#Rávéga|Rávéga]] in producing a wide range of products, such as textiles, processed meats, beer, glassware, bicycles, and metal products. Since Kirosocialism, the city has retained a significant industrial base, but has shifted toward the manufacture of electrical components, plastics, and (perhaps most notably) garage doors.

[[Iselin International Airport]], the busiest in the Valēka Metropolitan Area and the Mid-Oceanic region as a whole, is located in the city. The Iselin Chamber of Commerce tried to promote ''Iselin: Lavnubān Niyaské'' ("Iselin: Gateway to Niyaska") as the city's official slogan, but was forced to adopt ''Lavnubān Valēké'' ("Gateway to Valēka") after legal action from the city of Śervinaxt, which claimed an identical slogan. Śervinaxt itself was forced to abandon the slogan for ''Tolalpuv Valēká'' ("Valeka's Doorstep") after a lawsuit filed by a real estate consortium in Telmerdun, which had been using it to advertise several residential developments it had built near the Telmerdun Bridge linking Niyaska to [[Valēka#Geography|Strathannan Island]]. Iselinites who dislike the noise pollution, traffic, and strange-smelling foreigners brought by the airport often refer to their city as ''Tolaśbruv Valeká'' ("Valēka's Doormat") instead.
