Cities of Æonara

Central Æonara

New Kartika

New Kartika is the capital of Central Æonara State and was temporarily the capital of the Kiravian Remnant after the Federalist government's initial exile in Sirana and until its relocation to Vaśyansar. After the 1941 reörganisation of provincial boundaries on Æonara, New Kartika became the capital city of Central Æonara after its separation from East Æonara. The core of the city is a master-planned "new town" laid out under the supervision of the Federalist government in exile, centred around important government edifices that would later be taken over by the provincial government. Outside its planned core, the city is essentially inner-suburban in character, with many csingle-family homes, business parks, and shopping centres.

Sar-i-Pául (Æonaran Coscivian) or Sarípáuv (Kiravic Coscivian) is the largest city in the Kiravian state of West Æonara and the second-largest city on the island of Æonara, after Sirana. Located across the Snávin Strait from the Cape, it is a major port of entry to the Kiravian Federacy and a conduit for trade with the Cape and Paulastra.

Sarípáuv was established on June 2, 1674, and was intended as a trade outpost for Kiravia on Æonara. Located in a bay that had natural defenses and sitting at the southern approaches of the Snávin Strait, this small outpost quickly developed into a large town within a generation. Kiravia mobilized significant military and economic support for the fledgling city, and fearing an attack on the part of forces from Crona, construction began on the Snávin Wall in 1729. This fortification was massive, but it was not a literal wall. Instead, it was a series of fortifications going north from Sarípáuv to Kaesek. The Snávin Wall was made up of fortresses, batteries, artillery, barracks, and military roads, taking over two decades to complete. Employing thousands of workers, Paulastrans was introduced into the workforce in 1735 to speed up the completion of the project. In 1756, the project was completed. In that time, Sarípáuv had grown from a large town into a city, and ships traveling from Crona to other continents were forced to pass through the city. Paulastrans who had worked on the Snávin Wall had moved into the city, and very quickly the character of the city changed. What was before a mostly an ethnic Kiravian settlement was now transformed into a multi-national city. Portions of the city became home to various ethnic groups who spoke their mother tongues, and racial conflict soon developed. Paulastrans, who were treated as cheap labor, quickly grew into the largest minority. Kiravians, insecure at the top, reacted by force. However, in 1774, on the city's centennial, it was reported in local newspapers that Kiravians barely held onto a majority, and Paulastrans were quickly growing as a minority.

New industries came to Sarípáuv around this time. Although international shipping was the largest employer, whaling and fishing grew steadily as well, and this brought canning and more Paulastrans. The Industrial Revolution hit the city around this time as well, with mechanization of industries seeing fewer Kiravians in essential positions, replaced with low-level automation or Paulastrans. Local newspapers even nicknamed the city Sar-i-Pául due to the situation, and in 1820, when Paulastrans became one of the largest groups in the city. Although Æonaran Coscivan quickly became the dominant language, Paulastran was also widely known by much of the population. Æonaran Coscivians, Umcaran Coscivians, Paulastrans, Sinyolans, and Kir peoples made up the fabric of Sarípáuv in 1820. In 1848, protests took place in the city, demanding union rights. The Sar-i-Pául Revolt took place from May 1848 to February 1849, forcing the city government to make significant changes to its charter. On February 14, 1849, Sarípáuv was formally renamed to Sar-i-Pául. At this point, Paulastran saw 95% of the population having a "good command" of Paulastran", including 72% of the Coscivan population. This situation remained stable for over a century. In the 1940s, following the conclusion of the Second Great War, much of the Snávin Wall fell into disrepair, and while ethnic conflicts disappeared, post-war development erased the violence.

In the modern-day, Sar-i-Pául is a unique city and is often regarded as the financial capital of Æonara. Although the Snávin Wall is now gone, trade with the Cape and its economic prosperity has continued. The Port of Sar-i-Pául, officially established in 1986, remains a frequent port of call for vessels traveling from Crona to other continents to the east. Sar-i-Pául International Airport is also a common layover location for aircraft traveling between Crona and Levantia. The service sector after the 1940s quickly became the dominant industry in Sar-i-Pául, with restaurants, bars, clubs, and adult entertainment being popular. Luxury goods are also popular in the city, with local brands often sold across Kiravia. Despite past conflicts, Sar-i-Pául has a proud cultural and civic tradition, its heritage as a multi-cultural city often superseding the historic stereotype of interracial strife. Instead, it is a center of international trade and regional culture.
