Devalōmara is a state of the Kiravian Federacy, located in northern Great Kirav. It contains the Federacy's second-largest city, Escarda.
History
Devalōmara was forged in the crucible of two of Kiravia's foundational conflicts: The Cromwelute Wars and the Continental War.
After the Continental War, much of the newly conquered territory in the West was incorporated into the Kiravian Federacy as the "Continental Territory" (Devalōmax Skírēn), for which Devalōmara 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 Devalōmara in [YEAR].

Government
Devalōmara is a presidential republic within the Kiravian Federacy.
Devalōmara has a bicameral legislature. The inferior chamber, the Legislative Conference, is elected [how]. The superior chamber, the Stanora, is elected [how].
The Continental Party, whether in control of the legislature or not, has been the largest single party in Devalōmara since the end of Kirosocialism. 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 Devalōmaran 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.
Other active parties include the Order & Justice Party (étatist, Coscivian nationalist), Union Party (conservative), Social Credit Party (social-creditist),

Economy
Devalōmara has a strong and diversified economy, the third-largest state economy in the Federacy, following Kiygrava and Cascada.
Escarda and the other cities of northern and central Devalōmara make up the western end of the North Kiravian industrial belt. Devalōmara 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.
Devalōmara has the largest known non-offshore oil and gas reserves in Great Kirav, found mainly in shale deposits and oil sands. More recent developments in extraction and processing technology have made Devalōmaran hydrocarbon plays more profitable and have opened up new areas to mineral exploration.
Central and southern Devalōmara 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.
