After the Continental War, much of the newly conquered territory in the West was incorporated into the Kiravian Federacy as the "Continental Territory" (''Devahomax Skírēn''), for which ''Devahoma'' became the common name. As Kiravian colonisation of these lands progressed, most of Continental Territory was split off into separate territories, most of which were subsequently subdivided to form the modern-day administrative divisions of Western Kirav. The core area that remained became a full state of the Kiravian Federacy under the name Devahoma in [YEAR]. | After the Continental War, much of the newly conquered territory in the West was incorporated into the Kiravian Federacy as the "Continental Territory" (''Devahomax Skírēn''), for which ''Devahoma'' became the common name.

Although founded as an anti-Kirosocialist grassroots opposition party in the National Renewal Movement, the party assumed its current form by gradually absorbing the institutional machinery of the Devahoman Socialist Party it had usurped, eventually becoming a establishmentarian, broadly centrist "party of power". It has maintained its consistently major presence in the state government in large part through its ability to mobilise voters in the state's urban centres. | ||

Escarda and the other cities of northern and central Devahoma make up the western end of the North Kiravian industrial belt. Devahoma is a major producer of electronics, electrical equipment and electrical components, farm machinery, construction components, chemicals, and machined metal products. Devalōmaran companies are well-known for manufacturing cheaper and more durable alternatives to and "knockoffs" of more upmarket cutting-edge consumer electronics such as printers, cameras, mobile phones, and computer displays produced in [[Heku]] and [[Burgundie]]. Brewing is a major industry. | Escarda and the other cities of northern and central Devahoma make up the western end of the North Kiravian industrial belt.

Central and southern Devahoma are productive agricultural regions, growing large amounts of cale, potato, wheat, barley, maize, oats, onions, turnips, squash and gourds, cabbage, flax, and feed crops such as clover. As in other regions of Kiravia, hops are an important and high-value crop, meeting the large demand created by the Kiravian brewing industry. | Central and southern Devahoma are productive agricultural regions, growing large amounts of cale, potato, wheat, barley, maize, oats, onions, turnips, squash and gourds, cabbage, flax, and feed crops such as clover.
