Noua Cymru (French: Nouvelle-Galle) is a province in Kelssek located in the eastern coastal part of the country, and is the largest province by population. "Noua Cymru", which means "New Wales", is a corrupted combination of Latin "Nova" and Welsh name for Wales. Its capital is Winchester and its largest city, Kirkenes, is also Kelssek's largest metropolis. Other important cities in Noua Cymru include Redswyth, Rittick, Colwyn and Wentonweakes.

Noua Cymru has considerable economic power within Kelssek as it accounts for 46% of the nation's manufacturing industry and Kirkenes is home to most of Kelssek's non-state financial services industry. The province is a leader in the production of motor vehicles, aircraft, and refining of metal ores. Tourism, especially visitors to Kirkenes, is also an important part of the economy.

Noua Cymru's provincial legislature is the unicameral Legislative Assembly of Noua Cymru. Its current Premier is Douglas McCaern, who leads a majority government formed by the Liberal Party of Noua Cymru.
