Kiravian addressing system

The Kiravian addressing system is based on a nested hierarchy of discrete geographical units, from the dar (lot, parcel, or estate) to the block (ram) or townland, on up to the province. Kiravian addresses do not make reference to streets or roads, but rather to the physical configurations of the country’s built environments and the boundaries of its administrative divisions. The web portal Kiravia.kr describes the system as “place-oriented rather than route-oriented”. The system is complex and idiosyncratic, showing considerable variation across the country.

General paradigm

There are two general forms of address in Kiravia, usually referred to as "urban" and "rural". The boundary between urban and rural in terms of addresses is often blurry. Buildings in clustered rural villages typically use an "urban"-style address, while some newly built-up peri-urban developments use rural addresses.

In urban addresses, lots are numbered within their "block" (ram), and blocks are numbered (often irregularly) within a "circuit" (kontruv). In rural addresses, lots are numbered within their townland. Most townlands are named, but in some remote parts of the colonies and remote parts of the mainland interior they may be numbered instead. It is not uncommon for large rural estates or high-volume urban addresses to dispense with lot numbers, and use a named location instead (e.g. Konsaháken Manor, World Financial Building).

All urban circuits have numbers known to the sector post office; however, in some cities the sector numbers are not common knowledge, and the corresponding neighbourhood name is used instead. In Escarda, the opposite is the case: most residential neighbourhoods do not have official names and use only the kontruv number. In larger towns and cities, kontruv are numbered within vintuv which are (or once were) physically discernible districts or outgrowths of the urban area. Rural addresses are also grouped into sectors, which in most cases are directional divisions of the countyship (e.g. NW, NE, SE, SW), though in the South and the Baylands they are generally named instead and correspond to large historic landholdings or feudal domains.

Many addresses feature additional geographic information that may apply, such as a city district or borough (if not elsewhere specified), a civil or survey township in states where they exist, or relevant physical-geographic features such as hollows, valleys, or islands. Such information helps to reduce ambiguity and facilitate timely and correct delivery.

All rural addresses include the countyship in which the address is located. Most urban-type addresses also include the countyship, though in the largest cities it is more common to omit it. The Kiravian Post strongly recommends that all addresses include the province in which they are located. However, in Valēka, it is customary to ignore this for residential addresses. Every province has an official postal abbreviation, as do the Army Post Office, Fleet Post Office, and Diplomatic Post Office.

For international mail, the country (e.g. Kiravian Federacy, Atrassic Crona, Scapa, Pribraltar, Saint Kennera) should also be specified.

Extent

The Kiravian addressing system is used throughout the Kiravian Federacy and Kiravian Collectivity, with the exception of New Ardmore. In New Ardmore, streets are named and urban addresses resemble those used in Urcea or Arcerion. In rural areas, an indigenous reckoning of townlands is in use, so rural addresses in New Ardmore more closely resemble their mainland Kiravian counterparts.

The Kiravian Post also serves the associated states of Saint Kennera and Pribraltar, and the Kiravian addressing system is used there as well. The same is true in Scapa, with the unique distinction that all addresses in Scapa are rural in form, even those in the larger towns.
