This article is an overview of several cities in the Tierradorian Woqalate, sorted by commonwealth.

Naihungo, sometimes spelled Nai Hungo (No Entry) is the second-largest city in Alcosky, and is the administrative of the Alatoco Territory. Most of the city lies within Nateqo County, with other portions spilling into Kitts, Polk, and Ośacari counties. All four counties encompass the Naihungo-Nateqo Metropolitan Area, which, as of 2036, has a total population of 1,225,980, making it the 19th-largest metropolitan area in Tierrador. It was founded in 1653 as a temporary fort during the Orixtal Crusade. The Battle of Nai Hungo occurred in the spring of 1655, and was one of the bloodiest battles in the war.

After the Orixtal Crusade, Naihungo rebuilt and quickly became the capital city of the newly-founded Western Republic, meant to serve as an Occidental buffer state between Takosenic Tierrador and the Occidental possessions in South Crona. Its location in the southwest of Alcosky made it an important hub for the Republic's struggling trade industry. Naihungo-based Prairies Trading was the largest trade contractor in the Western Republic, and contributed a little over 64% of the Republic's GDP, until it was reformed into a retail chain with locations in Alcosky, Ulunkheria, and Porlos. Naihungo is also a major agricultural hub for Alcosky, formerly being a farming community. The Western Brotherhood of Farmers, the largest agriculture labor union in Western Tierrador, was founded in 1780 in Naihungo, and is the oldest known labor union in Tierrador.

Naihungo is one of eight Ængle-majority cities in Tierrador, with the population being 52% Ængle, 32% Abioic, 11% Coscivian, 3% Audonian, and 1% Central Cronan. Like the rest of Alcosky, Ænglish is the most widely-spoken language, due to its status as the Commonwealth's sole official language. Abioic languages such as Qabóri, Soqwuex, and Ibaha, along with Kiravic Coscivian are also spoken in Naihungo, though mostly as second/third languages.

The city is also home to the notable University of Naihungo, the largest private university and the largest Catholic university in Alcosky by enrollment. Notable sports teams in Naihungo include the Alcosky Prairie Dogs, who play in the OHL and have won four Watson Cups, Naihungo City F.C. of the NFL Championship, S.D. Naihungo of the Hemp League, and the Naihungo Buffaloes of the OIAA's Middle 14 Conference.

Country	Tierrador
Commonwealth	Alcosky
County	Milan
Population	9,266,149

Ominasky is the capital and largest city of the Commonwealth of Alcosky. Located in the heart of the Alcosky Prairies, Ominasky was founded in 1077 as the principal city of the Tamaqafee Tribe, which was the largest tribe in the area. Ominasky's city limits are wholly engulfed in Milan County, with some of its suburban areas spilling into Marinets and Epson counties. With a population of almost 9.3 million inhabitants, Ominasky is the third-most populous city in Tierrador, behind only Taisgol and Qabór, and is the most populous city in Alcosky.

Archaeological evidence suggests that Ominasky was the sight of an ancient Aonaali city known as Alcos Itil. The Nitúlúúk Market ruins were discovered in 1889, and were rebuilt and reopened in 1969. Ominasky was officially incorporated in 1122, and became the administrative center of the short-lived Prairies Qoyalet. After the Prairies Qoyalet's dissolution in 1454, Ominasky was assigned to the Alcosky Qoyalet, with the city soon becoming Alcosky's administrative center in 1529. The city was one of many that were completely burned to the ground in mid-1655, during the Orixtal Crusade. After rebuilding, Ominasky would later rise to global prominence when the Audonia-Tierrador Trade Corporation (ATTC) was founded in 1706. ATTC became one of the largest trade firms in the Qabóri Woqalate, contributing massive amounts to the Woqalate's economy.

Ominasky's location in the middle of the Southeast Alcosky Oil Fields makes it an important hub for Tierrador's petroleum industry. PT and Summit 71, two of Tierrador's largest petroleum companies, operates their global headquarters in Ominasky, cycling petroleum and natural gas extracted from Southeast Alcosky and the Gulf of Telohakee-Alcosky to the rest of the world. Ominasky is also well-known for its manufacturing sector, with the Lámparas Company being the world's largest manufacturer of lamps. The city is also a very prominent destination for historical tourism, with the city's unique Ænglo-Abioic architecture attracting over 12 million visitors per year, making it the ninth most-visited city in Tierrador. The fast-food chain Prontoburger is also based in Ominasky.

Ominasky is ethnically made up of 57% Abioic, 26% Ængle, 10% Coscivian, 4% Audonian, and 3% Central Cronan indigenous. Despite being only 26% Ængle, Ænglish is still the most widely-spoken language in Ominasky, with 52% of Ominasky's inhabitants using the language daily. This is due to increased influence from Alstin in the mid-1800s prompting Alcosky to make Ænglish its official language. Qabóri is spoken by 39%, while 6% speak Tamaqafee and 3% speak Kiravic Coscivian. The city is a political battleground, mainly between the TSD and PpT. Currently, the TSD holds the majority of Ominasky's Qangreč delegations.

Ominasky is home to Alcosky State University, the flagship public university of the University System of Alcosky, and the second-largest public university in Alcosky by enrollment. In 1991, the Ominasky City Council passed a law setting a minimum literacy rate of 100%. The law is still in place today, with Ominasky boasting the highest literacy rate of cities in South Crona. Some notable sports teams in Ominasky include Lámparas of the Premiership, the Alcosky State Red Raiders of the OIAA's Orix-12 Conference, and the Ominasky Outlaws of the OHL. In 2010, the 76,000-seat Summit Dome was completed, and currently serves as the home of Lámparas.

Population	856,801

Tarhogun is the administrative center and largest city of the Wulokskee Territory and Tyynehet County. It is the third-largest city in Alcosky, with a population of 856,801 inhabitants. Tarhogun is a prominent ski tourism destination, with its location at the foot of the Qalhéq Mountains making it the third-most visited ski tourist destination, behind only Sevier and Tataía. Tarhogun is located in three counties: Tyynehet County (which it is the administrative center of), Wilson County, and Tu'uhanet County.

Tarhogun was founded in 1875 as a gold-mining settlement after the invasion/annexation of the Western Republic one year prior. The city was, and still is, a prominent mining hub in Alcosky, with all of the Commonwealth's mining operations being fully controlled by the city. Tarhogun is also home to Parténát, which is the largest cannabis cultivation firm in Tierrador, and Northwest Energy, a major energy producer operating in and around the Qalhéq Mountains.

Ethnically, Tarhogun's population is comprised of 56% Ængle, 30% Abioic, 7% Coscivian, 5% Sarpedonian, and 2% Audonian. Ænglish is the most-spoken language in Tarhogun, with Qabóri and Sokalakee being the second and third-most, respectively. Tarhogun is home to the University of Alcosky, which is the largest public university in Alcosky by enrollment, and Tarhogun University, a smaller but very prestigious liberal arts college. Notable sports teams in Tarhogun include the Alcosky Red Wolves of the OIAA's Orix-12 Conference, and Tarhogun City FC of the Hemp League.

Bogocía

Holčaq

Holčaq is a city located in eastern Bogocía, in the Agualaría Qoyalet. It has a population of 876,343, making it the 25th most populous city in Tierrador. Holčaq is one of the few “melting pot” cities in Tierrador, with the ethnic makeup of Holčaq being 41% Pan-Qabóric, 32% Coscivian, 16% Sarpedonian, and 11% other.

Holčaq is a much newer city compared to others, being founded in 1821 as an industrial hotbed for Bogocía's growing steel industry. Nicknamed the "Steel City," Holčaq is home to Songun Steel, which is the largest steel-producing company in Tierrador, and the largest employer in the city.

Archeological evidence suggests that what is now Holčaq was a former Aonaali city, supposedly settled from 1900 BC to 1500 BC. A few centuries following the collapse of the Aonaali Woqalate, the area would be settled by the Abio Woqalate for 700 years, until its destruction in the Abio Wars. The Ausatakee Ruins are what remain of that settlement. They are located 10 miles east of downtown Holčaq and are one of the most prominent tourist destinations in the city.

Notable sports teams in Holčaq include the Agualaría Bluewave, who play in the OHL’s King of Tapkoii Conference, and have won three Watson Cups, in 2000, 2007 and 2015, and S.C.D. Holčaq, who currently play in the NFL's Eastern Conference, the second-highest level in Tierradorian football.
