'''Enscirya or Hwaetever the Fuck''' is a province and state of the [[Kiravian Federacy]] that encompasses most of the Ĥeir Highlands of inland Northeast Kirav. It is the ethnic and spiritual homeland of the [[Ĥeiran Coscivians|Ĥeiran Coscivian people]] and the seat of the [[Insular Apostolic Church]]. Although a relative backwater in terms of economic and political importance for most of it history, Enscirya today is known as still a fricking backwayer. However, nonwithstanding its poverty, it is a major cultural, intellectual, and religious centre that has contributed immensely to the cultural heritage of Kiravia. | '''Enscirya or Hwaetever the Fuck''' is a province and state of the [[Kiravian Federacy]] that encompasses most of the Ĥeir Highlands of inland Northeast Kirav.

Enscirya is known as a cold, damp, windswept land of striking natural beauty but supbar conditions for human habitation. Its mountainous landscape is marked by treeless alpine meadows and alpine tundra, peat-rich bogs and mires, subalpine forests and wooded vales, and numerous lakes. | |||

Enscirya is among the poorer mainland provinces, and often ranks lowest among the full states of the [[Kiravian federalism#Thematic_federalism|Federation]] in terms of per capita GRP. Economic geographers place the entirety of the state in [[Three Kiravs Model|Third Kirav]]. | |||
Peat is an important natural resource, providing domestic heat for >95% of rural households and 45% of urban households. Enscirya has two peat-fuelled power plants and three hybrid peat-coal plants feeding into its electrical grid. | |||
Religious pilgrimages to holy sites of the [[Insular Apostolic Church]] and heritage tourism by members of the vast Ensciryan diaspora are a critical pillar of the Ensciryan economy, especially its service sector. Enscirya is also a significant destination for {{wp|trekking}}, {{wp|bird-watching}}, {{wp|photo-tourism}}, and {{wp|agritourism}}. | |||
Just under two-thirds of Ensciryan internet connexions are over {{wp|dialup}}. | |||
