Siardara

Siardara is the westernmost region of Malaena, along the coast of the Pinakloosi Sea. It is bounded on the east by the Binnar Mountains and the west by the Pinakloosi. The name derives from Proto-Noulaenic thiar (sunset), dair (coast) and the suffix -a indicating a region, literally "sunset coast region". The region is hilly, dry, and steeply sloped and historically has not been densely populated. The largest city in the region is the old Noulaenic port city of Darafalis, which remains a busy trading port and has a population of 100,000 people. Politically Siardara is ruled by a feudal monarchy based in Darafalis, having declared independence from the Second Noulaenic Empire in 2022 NE.
