There are nineteen large cities in Narwah.

[[Michrokhan]], the capital of Narwah, has stood as the centre of Narweighan politics for almost a thousand years.

[[Neith]] and [[Rom'kal]] on the other hand are relatively new cities, growing up around their local industry. [[Neith]] is the major uranium mining city of the nation bringing in millions of lanashes per year, while [[Rom'kal]] grew up around its automobile manufacturing industry.

The Republic of Narwah is a medium-sized, democratic socialist nation, located on the southern coast of Rigin continent in The Honor Guard. Historically insular, it is only in recent years that Narwah has made itself known to the other nations of Rigin.

A philosopher’s haven, Narwah boasts some of the continent’s largest protected forested areas. The Arts too, can find a welcoming home within Narwah’s boarders. Peace with nature is a fundamental law within Narwah, with many strict regulations on emitions levels.

The people of Narwah are among the nicest you can meet. Always willing to accept strangers into their midst they are well looked after by their government. However, Narweighans are known for their ability to hold a grudge, but with short tempers a rarity in this peace loving Eden, grudges are hard to come by.

The national motto, “People Matter, Knowledge Matters More”, mirrors the Narweighan philosophy perfectly. Government spending on the welfare and education of its citizens is phenomenal. Narweighans have been shown to be among the smartest in Rigin, and indeed The Honor Guard.

Industry

Narwah is home to many small companies, watched over by the government. The minimum wage is above the regional average, while prices are at a competitive level.

Narwah’s main industry is uranium mining. Based in the eastern city of Neith, the uranium mining industry supplies a great portion of Narwah’s income. With 86% of Narwah’s uranium mining industry running through Neith, the city has expanded to become one of Narwah’s largest.

Second only to the uranium mining industry is Narwah’s book publishing industry. Although many of its title have never been published outside Narwah, the industry generated over 1bn lanashes per year from sales. Many great philosophers from around Rigin have had special publications released solely for the Narweighan audience, who have proved accepting of all they are given.

Narwah boasts only one other industry worthy of mention. Based in Rom’kal, the automobile manufacturing industry is far from the best in the region. Receiving relatively low funding from the government, Narweighan cars are more functional than aesthetic. If you want something to get you from A to B comfortably, then there’s no better buy. But if you’re looking for something that looks good, you’ll have to look elsewhere.
