Kathakaion

Kathakaion is a large city in the northeastern reaches of the Kirdan Empire. Its current name is derived from that of Kathakai the Way-Changer, the sixth Tash-Teshivan and a great reformer of the empire. It was previously known by its Uremite name, Kmiora, but was renamed after Kathakai in 1004 CV, in conjunction with his ordering the construction of the city’s current citadel and the massive enlargement of its cisterns, granaries, and other such public works.
Etymology: The city’s name is formed by combining Kathakai’s name with the old Tuvai place name suffix -ion or -aon, denoting “that which lies upon” or “that which is held up” (cf. Enyrion, tessaraon). In this case it means “That which Kathakai lifts up” (or more figuratively, that which he improves or glorifies).
