The classic age of the frontier in this region continued on until the late 1900s, when the restoration regime of [[Patrick III of Urcea|Patrick III]] made establishing coherent law and order and public administration a top priority in the frontier region. The frontier was eventually the site of considerable [[Housing in Urcea|residential projects]] as well as major railways and highways in the immediate lead up to the [[Second Great War]], finally ending the "southern wilds" period and bringing the frontier into full integration with the rest of the country. | The classic age of the frontier in this region continued on until the late 1900s, when the restoration regime of [[Patrick III of Urcea|Patrick III]] made establishing coherent law and order and public administration a top priority in the frontier region. The frontier was eventually the site of considerable [[Housing in Urcea|residential projects]] as well as major railways and highways in the immediate lead up to the [[Second Great War]], finally ending the "southern wilds" period and bringing the frontier into full integration with the rest of the country. Despite this, the area continues to retain its rural character in some parts, and many locals retain a proud tradition of life away from dense cities, suburbs, and exurbs. In the central part of the wilderness - [[Afoncord]] and eastern [[Callan]] - many large scale ranches and other agricultural producers still continue on, many of them family properties descended from original [[Ómestaderoi]] settlers. The importance of ranching and frontier life remains prominent in the minds of locals and in local culture, and is reflected in many popular symbols, including that of a horse in the flag of the province of Afoncord. | ||
