'''Mahhal''', formally The Seven Kingdoms of the Mahhal Alliance (''[[Mahhalian Language#Romantian_Orthography_Kastelly|kastelly]]'' '''Dolla Byky Rewk Mahhal''', ''[[Mahhalian Language#Ghezic_Orthography_Fidelly|fidelly]]'' '''ጦሓብክሬዑክማኣል'''), is an [[Mahhalian Archipelago|archipelago]] nation located in far reaches of the southern hemisphere, as a southeasterly extension of the continent of [[Antarephia]], to the southeast of the [[Harda Archipelago|Harda Archipelago]].
=Etymology=


Mahhal is divided into 7 kingdoms, and under them a total of 50 prefectures (each kingdom has 7 prefectures, plus the so-called special capital prefecture of Rewk Mahhal, from which the country derives its name).
The name Ohunkagan for the city is derived from the [[Lake Ohunkagan|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.


= Etymology =
=History=


The name Mahhal is just the name of a river, Ma Hhal, meaning "Snowy River." The Snowy River Alliance was a treaty signed over a thousand years ago between the seven kingdoms.

= Human Geography =
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.

Revision as of 14:26, 12 September 2019

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.

History

Timeline: Growth of Ohunkagan

  • 1812 - founding Fort Marony
  • 1831 - founding Ohunkagan
  • 1859 - Ohunkagan annexes Fort Marony (south of Canal)
  • Ohunkagan in 1860: https://opengeofiction.net/relation/155439
  • 1861 - annexes South Plains and Mt Airy
  • 1872 - annexes village of Balto
  • 1874 - annexes New Hotanka
  • 1875 - annexes villages of Allanack and Hogarth
  • 1879 - annexes Coke Undertown
  • 1879 - annexes Hailsham
  • Ohunkagan in 1880: https://opengeofiction.net/relation/155144


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.
