Provinces 1960-2006

Abasina

Abasina's inhabitants are mostly Traditional Baranxtuan, and therefore, the whole province still is very rural and the main source of income is agriculture, though tourism into this archaic world has become very popular. Abasina's capital is Lamaggra.

Ωþ-Neila

North Neila is the northernmost province and its population is very mixed, as many immigrants came here, because North Neila is the industrial center of Baranxtu. Its capital is Nei is the third largest city in Baranxtu, even larger than the city state of Deioprajji.

Ωgg-Neila

South Neila is the only landlocked province of Baranxtu, and its inhabitants are largely employed by large-scale agricultural companies. Its capital is Misma.

Bari Nazer

Covering the original area of the colony of Baranxtu, Bari Nazer houses most of the high-tech industries of Baranxtu as well as a strong tourism-driven economy. Its capital still is Ωn-Baranxiž, although it was split from the province in 1909.

Dorista

Superficially the largest province, Dorista never had many resources or very fertile land to offer, so its unscathed landscape has made it the primary tourism destination in all of Baranxtu. Its capital, Leiris, is the only military port of Baranxtu.

Ziaha

Ziaha is the central province of Baranxtu. Its capital Eisha is the oldest city in all of Baranxtu, as it was founded by the native people of the Umtrenas in the 6th century CE.

Jjiria

Not including the three city states, Jjiria is the smallest of all provinces. Located on the northern shore between Abasina and Bari Nazer, it covers the area of the former Native kingdom Anier, which did not become part of Baranxtu until 1906.

Qiru

The southwestern province of Qiru is the only province where the native population of the area still is an important force. It has no official capital, but the parliament of the province is in Pnema.

Halaora

The easternmost province of Baranxtu, Halaora once was the center of the mining industry, however, this industry is no longer profitable. A lot of Halaorans have migrated to other parts of the country, or even to different states, and Halaora is the poorest province of Baranxtu. Its capital, Inar, has the highest unemployment rate of all Baranxtuan cities.

Leumena

The bread basket of Baranxtu, Leumena is one of politcally and economically most stable provinces due to the government controlled agriculture that employs a majority of Leumena inhabitants. During the last decades, the many towns of Leumena with their historical buildings have also started to attract many tourist. Its capital is Leu.

Ωn-Baranxiž

The capital district is the second most populous administrative district after Ωþ-Neila and is only as large as the city of Ωn-Baranxiž itself. Named after the capital of the kingdom of Baranxtu, Baranxiž (city of Baranxi), it grew to be almost as splendid as the original Baranxiž. It lies on the western shores of Bari Nazer.

Deioprajji Make

Named after king Deioprajji of the native people of the Masenas, Deoprajjni Make grew to be the fourth largest city of Baranxtu. It is an enclave of Dorista.

Siragge

Siragge, the second largest city of Baranxtu, lies on the southern shore.
