Ohunkagan is the largest city in the state of Makaska, in the Federal States of Archanta. It is a commercially important center of transport and commerce for the Grand Lakes Region in the nation's center-south.

Etymology

The name Ohunkagan for the city is derived from the lake with the same name. The meaning is "story" or "myth" in the local native Rakhoda language. The lake was so-named because of the periodic gathering of the various Rakhoda bands in the region for storytelling festivals around the lake, which was held to be sacred.

Before West Ulethan Settlement

Before the arrival of the ethnically West Ulethan Effessians, the region currently occupied by the city and metropolitan area of Ohunkagan was home for thousands of years to native peoples. The Rakhoda people, who were those encountered by the settlers, were themselves fairly recent arrivals, however, probably having come into the area only 200-300 years prior. They either drove out or absorbed the prior native groups, about which very little is known in terms of ethnicity, though they left a fairly elaborate material culture in the form of baskets, lodges and such. Linguistically, the region was 100% Rakhoda-speaking by the time the settlers arrived, but there is a surviving substrate of non-Rakhoda names to be found, in places such as Squallywaukus, Bockbow, and some others.

Geography

Wards and Neighborhoods

The city is informally but strongly divided into two parts, based on the historical merger of Fort Marony and Ohunkagan in 1859. By the city charter amendment of 1872, city wards must be drawn along neighborhood boundaries. So neighborhoods are listed below by ward constituency.
