'''Epsilar''' is a city in County Telbrant, located five kilometres from the [[Bérasar]] city limits. It is notable for its large [[Levantia|Levantine]] population, and for being the birthplace of the [[Levantian Union Party]]. Originally a working-class community inhabited mostly by Coscivian immigrants from Éorsa and Triatha, the Kiravian economic resurgence in the 211290s caused living standards in the city to rise and turned certain sections of it into affordable but pleasant residential space for professionals. The nucleus of the Levantine community was formed by a few dozen Urcean expatriate families who settled in the vicinity of St. Mark's Catholic church in 21192, which grew rapidly as trade with Urcea increased. Fiannrians, especially Gothic-Fiannrians, sought out the city as immigrant-friendly, and began to cement the city as a major destination for Levantine immigrants. | '''Epsilar''' is a city in County Telbrant, located five kilometres from the [[Bérasar]] city limits.
