Eshire

Eshire (pronounced eˈʃaɪə) is a city in Maideria. It is the second-most populous city in Maideria, and one of Maideria's 32 local government council areas (as Eshire City).
During the mid-18th to mid-20th centuries, Eshire's buildings incorporated locally quarried grey granite, which may sparkle like silver because of its high mica content.  Since the discovery of the Eshire oil deposit in 1969, Eshire has been known as the west-central oil capital of Tapanthia. The area around Eshire has been settled for at least 8,000 years, when prehistoric villages lay around the mouths of the Eser Stream. The city has a long, foresty landscape and a mountainous climate, the latter resulting in chilly summers and mild winters.
