Initially named Alþisar, the city was renamed in 21121 in honour of Árelius Pelāruv, a Kiravian general born in the city who later fought for Kommenori in the IxNapoleonic wars. In Greek, Pelāruv’s name was rendered as Avrelios Pelairos, and in Latin it was rendered Aurelius Belærus or Aurelius Belarus. The name’s similarity to that of the nation of {{wp|Belarus}} is thus entirely coīncidental.

'''Dēvlinsar''' is a city in western [[Étivera]] near the [[Íarthakelva]] border. Once an important industrial centre and railway node, the city did not fare well during the post-Kirosocialist economic transition, and has become an icon of the uneven economic fortunes in contemporary Kiravia. It is widely known across the Mid-Oceanic region and Eastern Highlands for its economic woes, and for its left-wing politics and ostentatious Kirosocialist nostalgia, as well as for its architecture and other physical reminders of its storied history.

The population of Dēvlinsar is 52% Coscivian and 43% Celtic (24% Pretannic and 19% Gaelic), with most of the remainder being [[Urom|Urom]]. The prevailing local speech is based on the Calburian dialect of [[Kiravic Coscivian]], but incorporates a great deal of Pretannic, Antaric Coscivian, and Æran Coscivian vocabulary, and is spoken with a distinctive accent different from that of surrounding rural areas in County Krégar.

Dēvlinsar is a stronghold of left-wing politics. Power on its Municipal Commission is currently held by a People's Front alliance between the Kirosocialist Party, which controls five out of seven seats, and the Communist Party of the Kiravian Federacy, which controls the remaining two. Dēvlinsar is the only municipality with a population of more than 5,000 to have any CPKF commissioners.

===New Kartika===
'''New Kartika''' is the capital of [[Central Æonara|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 [[Cities of Kiravia#Vaśyansar|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 {{wp|Master-planned|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.

'''Madisar''' is a {{wp|satellite city}} on the northern end of the [[Bérasar]] metropolitan area. It is widely considered the most liberal and Westernised community in the nation.
'''Mandrasar''' is a {{wp|satellite city}} on the northern end of the [[Bérasar]] metropolitan area. It is widely considered the most liberal and Westernised community in the nation.
 
After the end of Kirosocialism and the accompanying {{wp|economic liberalization|economic liberalisation}}, Madisar was one of the first Kiravian cities to experiment with modern {{wp|Place branding|city branding}} and {{wp|city marketing}}, with the goal of positioning itself as "Kiravia's International City" to attract foreign businesses, investment, and human capital. It is consistently ranked as one of the best Kiravian cities for expatriates and the most Anglophone-friendly city in the nation. 
 
Madisar was founded as a mill and market-town by Coscivian colonists from eastern Taństedan in 20546. As Fariva industrialised beginning in the 20970s, Madisar, which was located near (but not quite on) the eastern seaboard's {{wp|fall line}}, became a secondary center of industrial activity. Under Kirosocialist rule during the 21160s, the government of Fariva established the Fariva Technical Institute in Madisar, which trained a large number of informaticians, engineers and scientists. After the fall of Kirosocialism and the Kiravian economic miracle of the 21190s, Madisar became home to many wealthy Kiravians who had made their fortunes in Bérasar, many with the help of foreign investors and markets, and also to many FTI-educated returnees who had emigrated during the ''cuahyrvrætor''. This influx of residents with cosmopolitan worldviews laid the foundation for Madisar's later reputation as a center of Western culture in Kiravia.


Most Madisar residents belong to the professional and international business classes or are affiliated with the city's two institutions of higher learning: the Fariva Technical Institute and Darmon University, a Western-style institution where English is the medium of instruction. According to the [[Kiravian State Executive|State Executive]], Madisar has more international passport-holders (not to be confused with [[Passport system in the Kiravian Federacy|Kiravian internal passports]]) per capita than any other census tract with over 10,000 inhabitants at 763 passport-holders per 1,000 residents. The average rate for the entire Federacy is 411 passport-holders per 1,000 residents. A study conducted by Darmon University found that 53% of Madisar residents were fluent English speakers, compared to 2.4% nationwide, and 36% of non-immigrant residents had lived abroad for a year or more, compared to 16% nationwide.

It is consistently ranked as one of the best Kiravian cities for expatriates and the most Anglophone-friendly city in the nation.


Madisar is a rather secular city by Kiravian standards, statistically more so than any other city of significant size. While several large towns in Xirya have fewer religious ''affiliates'' (much of the unaffiliated population being irreligious theïsts and deïsts), Madisar has a greater share of residents classed as "nontheïst and irreligious" than any Kiravian city of significant size at 21.4%. The city is home to the second-largest Unitarian Universalist congregation in the Federacy after the First Unitarian Church of [[Valēka]]. 47.6% of residents declared a religious affiliation to the 21200 Kiravian Census, with the largest being Catholicism, the [[Kiravian Sectarians|Archepiscopalianism]], and Mercantile Reform Protestantism, the Bahá'í Faith, Methodism, Unitarian Christianity, and Liberal Catholicism.
Mandrasar was founded as a mill and market-town by [[Taństan Coscivians]] in 20546. As Fariva industrialised beginning in the 20970s, Mandrasar, which was located near (but not quite on) the eastern seaboard's {{wp|fall line}}, became a secondary center of industrial activity. Under Kirosocialist rule during the 21160s, the government of Fariva established the Fariva Technical Institute in Mandrasar, which trained a large number of informaticians, engineers and scientists. After the fall of Kirosocialism and the (coastal) Kiravian economic miracle of the 21190s, Mandrasar, with the help of the state's chamber of commerce and development bureaucracy, promoted itself aggressively as a friendly, polyglot enclave for the international business and professional classes involved with the growing capitalist economy in the Bérasar metropolitan area. The student body of Darmon University provided a large workforce of Ænglish- and Latin-speaking service workers for the comfort of Occidental expatriates. Foreign-language street signs and public use of [[SI]] units were also employed to contribute to the cosmopolitan atmosphere.


Notable businesses headquartered in Madisar include SALIX Application Development SAK, White Charcoal World Capital, Window Vista Real Estate Corporation, ProPisca Marketing SAK, Courier-New Messaging & Teletype SAK, Tower of Scrabble Translation SAK, and Maximal International Patent & Trademark PLR.

A study conducted by Darmon University found that 53% of Mandrasar residents were competent Ænglish speakers (compared to 2.4% nationwide), 64% were competent [[Caphiric Latin|Latin-speakers]] (compared to 16% nationwide), and 38% were competent Burgittan speakers (compared to 1.3% nationwide). 36% of non-immigrant residents had lived abroad for a year or more, compared to an estimated 8% nationwide.


Municipal politics is partisan and competitive. The statewide Freedom Plus Party (classical liberal) and the New Direction Party (post-Kirosocialist, progressive) are the main contenders. The Liberal Democratic Party of Kiravia is represented on the city council and boasts its strongest electoral results in Madisar.

'''Tolôn''' is the largest city of Xula and the principal port on the southern coast of [[Great Kirav]].


Tolôn is the leading port for Kiravian trade with [[Cartadania]] and [[Heku]], and is particularly important as the main port of entry for Kiravian {{wp|oil and gas}} imports from Cartadania and for coffee imports from both countries. It is also an important base for Kiravian oil and gas exploration in the northern Sea of Odoneru and for colonial imports of sea oil from [[Uruvun]]. It is a crucial link in Great Kirav's energy supply chain, as the site of three large oil refineries and the terminus of five oil and three gas pipelines running northward and north-eastward to supply Central Kirav and the populous Northeastern, Mid-Continental, and Mínhanska Bay regions with fuel. On the export side, Tolôn is the main port of departure for products from Central Kirav, South Kirav, and Northwestern Kirav southbound to [[Ixnay (continent)|Continental Ixnay]], [[Pribraltar]], the [[Melian Isles]], [[Sydona]], and the [[Sakhalin Islands|Sakhalins]].

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.
