It is first and foremost a coastal defence force as the but some units have the range to reach the colony posetions, as its main threat are the eraisan people that since the beginning of the republic they have vowed to retake what they consider to be their core. Their have been lots of octavina- eraisan conflicts but mostly ended indecisive for now.

Since oil was discovered in 1880s the navy took great interest in the possibility of using oil to fuel its ships, but the admiralty was reluctant to adopt oil boilers for its capital ships early so the 1898 Roma class Battleships were ordered with coal boilers only and the technology was brand new in that time.

Music and dance in Liotain

## Music

The vanollar, a stringed instrument bowed by a hand-cranked wheel, is the national instrument.

### Opera

Liotainian high society has a particular interest in opera, with a high degree of interest in both foreign operas (either translated or in their original language), and native operas. Nearly every town of any size has an opera house, and opera singers can attract massive followings.

National marches, called Marzos, are regularly played by orchestras and symphonies.

### Religious Music

There is a sizable body of religious music generated by the Orthodox Church which includes the Viespatie, Pietas, Antiphons, Carols, and Rondeaus.  The Liotainian composer Damiano Forestale (1749-1802) is one of the most prolific and well-known liturgical musicians.

### Secular Music

Popular secular music includes ballads, romantic songs, and a rather large body of humorous or comedic songs, many of which share tunes with other well-known music.

Corda

Corda is a popular sport played in Liotain and its various dominions.

Although most Liotainians know the rules for corda and have played it at some point in their lives, the game is mostly played informally (for example, street games organized and played by children, or friendly games between coworkers). Corda does not have the same draw of spectators as the national sport of sritije.

### History

Corda is possibly the oldest sport played in Liotain, being attested as early as the 3rd Century CE.

Corda received an official governing body for rules in the early 1800s, which has cataloged and published three different "official" variants.

### Rules

Corda is played on a field or court measuring 40 meters by 20 meters. In professional games, teams are composed of five players (two forwards, two fielders, and a goalkeeper); amateur games may have more or fewer players.

The objective of the game is to throw a specially-coiled and weighted rope measuring 35cm across into the goals located on each end of the field. The rope has a wooden weight secured on one side, making it easier to throw.

The rope is thrown from player to player until one of the scorers is in position to throw the rope into the goal. If the rope touches the ground, it defaults to whichever team did not touch it last.

Professional corda teams, which are organized by the Liotainian Corda League, are traditionally composed of six players (three women and three men), although only five are allowed on the court / field at any one time; the sixth player serves as a substitution.

### Variants

Three main variants are played on a professional or semi-professional basis:

* Standard corda: played on a grassy field with five players per team.
* Beach corda: played on a sandy court with only four players (goalkeeper, defender, midkeeper, and forward)

### Teams of the Liotainian Corda League

* Eisiskes
* Eletrinai
* Neris & Laizuva
* Rietavas
* Rokantiskes
* Svedasai
* Sventoji
* Svyturys
* Vadgirys
Aronn Urmana

Aronn Urmana (1862-1897) was king of Liotain between 1890 and 1897.

He was the oldest child of Prince Rimantus Urmana and Finnguala du Celtica. In 1890, his grandfather, King Raimondas II, died at the age of 70. As Rimantus, who had been Raimondas's heir, had died the year prior, Aronn Urmana succeeded his grandfather as king of Liotain.

In 1893, Aronn married the young Annachiara du Firocco. They had one child, Kotryna Urmana, born in 1895.

In March 1897, King Aronn unexpectedly collapsed while attending the opera *Bellica*. The doctors could not immediately determine a cause, but after several days identified brain swelling. An operation successfully relieved the swelling, but Aronn's condition worsened and he died on 5th April 1897. He issued orders concerning the crown passing to his two-year old daughter Kotryna, and the establishment of a regency council composed of his brother Edmundas, Prime Minister Mykolas Della Rovere, and Patriarch Carolus Rimantus of the Orthodox Church.

Although Aronn Urmana faced relatively few challenges and was viewed as a very average king, his early and unexpected death was mourned as a national catastrophe.
List of Fusan names for Geographical Areas

The following is a list of the Fusan language's name for geographical areas. The Fusan language has been effected primarily by the period of Denishi occupation, mixing indigenous & Xīdǎonán with languages from Jihau. Most loan words from Velravin & Zamoroziet were eliminated during the Linguistic Reform, which standardized the language & the script, however some remain.

Ashyse

Ashyse is the Queen of Spiders and the only deity of the Kyslevite pantheon.

Believed to be a mere mortal at birth, Ashyse quickly grew up, sailing across the Encircled Sea and landing at the modern day site of Slutsk. Using her innate prowess, she was able to bring many gifts to the north, including the domestication of spiders and the ancient and secretive process of silk weaving. Through her good deeds and teachings, Ashyse eventually achieved Godhood in her own right, transcending the boundary between mortal and divine. Seeing the new powers she gained, she began to prepare her children for the future to come, hibernating her worldly body and using her powers to bestow gifts upon her worshipers and followers. Through these gifts, Ashyse gives her children the strength and wisdom needed to make the world in her image. Then and only then will Ashyse rise up from her slumber and lead Kyslev to the ultimate deliverance.
Solhynian

Solhynian is a magic sword referenced in the Liotainian epic *The Last White Sword*.

The sword is one of twelve swords, created with a mystical white metal, by the dark magician Aldoro in order to trick and destroy the angels of God. The sword is the only one of the twelve to survive, and falls into the hands of a series of heroes. Each in turn are corrupted by the power of the sword. The sword then comes to the noble farmer Vydas, who resists the temptations of the blade due to his piety. With the aid of his loyal friend Vasilkas and the sorceress Trigaila, Vydas sets out defeat Aldoro. After extensive trials, Vydas finally destroys Solhynian in order to defeat Aldoro, and by these deeds proves that he is worthy to become the first king of Liotain.
Edmundas Urmana (Prince)

*For other people named Edmundas Urmana, see Edmundas Urmana (King).*

Edmundas Urmana (b.1879) is the younger brother of Aronn Urmana and the uncle of Queen Kotryna of Liotain.

In 1897, he joined the Sovereign Military Order of Saint Mykolas, and currently holds the rank of **Knight Commander** of the commandery of Sventoji. As of 1905, he is functionally second-in-line to the Liotainian crown. He additionally serves as a Minister Without Portfolio on the cabinet, and is often sent on high-importance diplomatic missions on behalf of his niece.

He married to Karolyn Dumorne in 1897. They have two children: Edvardas (b.1898) and Valdemaras (b.1901).
Neokanisat movement

Neokanisatism is a spiritual, philosophical and political movement in Anitkabir. Originated in the late 19th century, it proposes a critique of the confrontational dualism in Hishelma and the rescue of more traditional Birite values, particular in the Kanisat faith, based on the balance between dual forces of the Universe. The movement is also strongly connected to other symbols of pre-Hishelmite Birite culture, notoriously the myth of Bir of Og, the history of the 4th century Birite Confederation under King Adham of Ethcik and the folk techniques of herding in the Kabirite plains. Neokanisatism has observed exponential growth since the start of the century, particularly among young, educated and urban groups, and estimates of its current size range from 240 to as much as 500 thousand followers in the country.

Although the book “*Of Herders and Cavaliers: An Analysis of Cultural Resistance in the region Kurakova*”, published in 1886 by Kabite historian and early anthropologist Adem Terzi, is considered the official birthdate of the movement, it was with the 1892 book “*Thus Spoke Amethusa”*, by philosopher Friket Neyzi, that Neokanisatism started to gain traction in Anitkabir. Neyzi, by then an already well-established name in Kabirite academia, helped the movement to reach a much greater audience, as until then it was restricted to specific sectors of the Northern Coast’s *intelligentsia*. Since 1892, the questioning character of the movement, its romantic rescue of folk Kabirite culture and its rejection of conservative values has become the subject of innumerous works in realms of philosophy, history, anthropology, literature, visual arts, music and theater. The movement is also strongly connected to the Birite ranks of the Liberal Party of Anitkabir.

Neokanisatism has by and large not appropriated itself of the more religious aspects of the old Kanisat faith, focusing on more spiritual and metaphysical aspects of the practice. Yet, the borders between religion and philosophy of life in the movement are not clear, and different understandings on to how to categorize it are focus of debate both inside and outside of the movement.

The movement has attracted a great deal of opposition, particularly from more conservative and reactionary Hishelmites. Neokanisat works have been targets of demonstrations, destruction and vandalism in cities as Uktu, Tapilasi and Eskasaba. Many Great Shikvizi have also spoken in favor of a ban on Neokanisatism and the movement has been characterized as an “advertising campaign for the God Sayi” and "the definition of moral corruption".
Gjoa Cableway

The Gjoa Cableway is a 38-kilometer long aerial cableway used for mining in Gjoa.

### Design

When settlement and mining started in Gjoa, a major obstacle was the need to transport ore from the more lucrative mines further inland to the ports constructed along the coasts. Initially, this transport occured with pack trains using donkeys, mules, or Joseon yaks, but the combination of cold weather, rough terrain, supply requirements, and manpower meant this was a short-term solution.

The initial phase of the mining operation was opening the iron and manganese mines at Gelezine Kelva, and carrying the ore down to the port of Aurora Borealine, a distance of some 38 kilometers.

The Liotainian-chartered Gjoa Company, which handled most of the infrastructure, evaluated two options: a cableway and a railway. Due to terrain conditions, a cableway was preferred to the railway, as the elevated cableway allows snow to drift freely between the pylons, rather than building up on a raised railroad causeway (and requiring constant efforts to clear). The cableway is rated for operation in winds of up to a hundred kilometers per hour, and carries 25 tons per hour.

### Construction

During the months of 1906 and 1907, the Gjoa Company began constructing the cableway, building wooden towers.

### Operation

The altitude drop of the cableway is sufficient that, when the descending side of the cableway is partially-loaded with ore, the weight differential operates the system without additional power. A subsidiary steam engine is necessary to start the unloaded system, however.

Sebiris

Sebiris is an oddity among nations. Geographically, the climate ranges from heavy monsoons on the coast, to dry splatters of desert, to hilly lake filled regions that's climate and terrain vary wildly based on altitude. The capital rest on the east side of its northern most peninsula, Point Sebir, named for its founder Jatorix Sebir, an explorer of Pictish decent. Shielded by the land from the worst of the monsoon season's rains, it survived as a settlement and has grown into a modest yet proud capital. Other than the regions surrounding the capital, few people live between Point Sebir and the Lake regions to the south, with the only exception being coastal communities along the shore. Sebir had difficulty keeping communications lines open with its lake regions due to the dense rain forest between the capital and its other population center to the south, and only recently started construction on a railroad that would connect the two regions as a vital life line. Those on the coast make their fortune based on fishing and trade, while those in the hilly lake-lands make their living with agriculture, animal husbandry and mining. If Sebiris manages to connect these two regions, it would be a powerful economic boon to the developing nation.

In terms of its political situation, it is ruled by a diarchy, with one elected representative from the coastal zones, and one from the inland lake region. Both must agree to pass laws, go to war, and conduct diplomacy. While strange, this equal sharing of power, while ineffective, keeps the country from fracturing due to the perfect balance of the two regions.

In addition, they claim the entirety of Breda, who they see as a breakaway province, and skirmishes between militias of both nations is common. Point Sebir's distance and the difficulty to supply the actual army in the region makes direct military action impossible for the time being. *Addition: Breda was occupied as a Liotainian colony in 1874.*

First Powered Flight

Among the few achievements of Tokkaido in the early 20th century, one of the most acclaimed was the development and successful testing of the worlds first powered, controlled flying machine by Tokkidan native, and inventor Yeon Yeung.

## Events

December 1903, a small biplane, weighing less than 550 pounds was tested in a controlled flight lasting 10 minutes.
The test took place from the foothills of the Shin Temple mountain to the Capital City. A total distance of 24 miles with an average speed of 30 knots.

## The Yeung Flyer

The Mk.1 Yeung Flyer was the culmination of ten years of research and development by Yeun Yeung and his associates.
Mr. Yeung designed the flyer based off of wind tunnel tests that showed a broad wing with a half teardrop shape had more lifting capability and showed slightly better ability to turn. Mr. Yeung opted for moving control surfaces on his wings and placed the elevators forward as this was to be mostly for training himself to fly, he theorized that having the elevators behind the center of gravity would be better. But felt it better for the pilot to see the surfaces moving.

In his historic flight Mr.Yeung intended to only fly a few hundred feet, however a recent high pressure system gave his flyer more lift than intended and a 20 knot head wind gave it far more airspeed than expected, again creating more lift. The flyer under these conditions made it 24 miles in 10 minutes, the airspeed was not recorded. My.Yeung however states it was designed to fly at 30 knots.

## The Results

Mr. Yeung published the results of the flight, and the plans for the Mk.1 Flyer in Tokkaido, and through government channels the design was passed to Tokkiado's allies in the west and east. Mr. Yeung for his part went on to develop more flyers however he never applied for a patent, instead opting to publish the basic design in a free to the public format.

Granadine

## Overview

The Dhow Republic controls a long stretch of barren coastline in northwestern Kijana.  Officially founded in 1624, the nation was ruled for nearly two hundred years by a series of strongmen located in the city of Granadine itself, which is located in the extreme north of the country.  As of 1905, nearly a quarter of the nation's population lives in the city of Granadine, while another quarter lives in the smaller coastal cities of Genil, Barro, and Keiro.  The remainder of the populace can be found in tiny fishing villages or farming hamlets that dot the barren coastline.

A traditional sea-trading power, Granadine's influence waned as steamships arrived on the western coast of Kijana.  Granadine's traders were well-known for their sailing dhows, and had some modest successes at oceanic voyages, resulting in Granadine's nickname as "the Dhow Republic."

The state is ruled by the Ha'i Basa, an individual who serves as joint head-of-state and head-of-government.  The twenty-one seat Lad Thouapai is composed from the three main groups within the country (priests, nobility, and commoners), with each group contributing a total of seven representatives.  Seven seats in the Lad Thouapai, those of the Commons, are held for a period of six years, while the remaining seats for the nobility and the priests are held for life.  The Lad Thouapai passes laws and elects the Ha'i Basa from outside of their ranks.

Granadine's populace is very religious, following a tribal religion known as Mak Mai.  There are numerous temples located along the coast, but seven - which are responsible for representation in the Lad Thouapai - are particularly prestigious.

Granadine imports food from Sebiris and further abroad, as well as working heavily with artisanal fishing.  The sparsely-populated interior has modest mineral reserves of cement, bentonite, and salt.  Mining of these resources, occasionally with foreign investment and expertise, has largely permitted the country to fund much of its modernization efforts.

Although Granadine's trade empire has crumbled under external competition, the Dhow Republic is modernizing wherever possible.  The country has successfully rebuffed attempts at foreign interference, and continues to maintain its political independence.
Armed Forces of the Czardom of Ostrony

The **Armed Forces of the Czardom of Ostrony** are the military forces of Ostrony. It consists of the Ostron Army & Ostron Navy. It is lead by the Council of Military Advisors, and managed by the Minister of Warfare; both of these positions are appointed by the President of Aukustia. The modern Aukustian armed forces were formally organized in the constitution which Bonaventura imposed upon the country.

The army swears its loyalty to both the President & Czar of Ostrony, and their existence & funding are approved in the triannual "House Review of the Military Apparatus," where the Parliament must decide upon funding & management of the Armed Forces. The current Minister of Warfare is XXX.

### **Army**

The **Ostron Army** is the principal land warfare force of Ostrony. In 1906, it was recorded as having had some 125,000 standing personnel. The Ostron Army is historically the more favored branch of the armed forces, as it needed to combat the immediate threats & insurrections within the Rift Valley, which caused Ostrony to never develop a strong maritime presence outside of its own waters. Ostron army doctrine is based upon creating cadres from standing personnel, who function as a basis upon which a potentially much larger force could be built upon during war time.

#### Infantry

The majority of the Ostron army is comprised of infantrymen, who engage in military combat on foot. While actual infantry warfare is conducted on foot, many infantry divisions utilize horses to provide quick & mass transport across Ostrony. The Ostron infantry are led by a hierarchical structure of both commissioned & non-commissioned officers, known as the Board of Infantry. Positions start with meagre lieutenants, & stretch all the way to the sergeant-generals, whom are appointed by the Minister of Warfare. The Board of Infantry is unique in that it does not have an overarching Master-General; disputes are settled directly by the Minister of Warfare.

#### Artillery

While artillery regiments are essentially glued to an assigned infantry division, the artillery is actually run under a separate branch of the army, known as the Board of Artillery. The Board of Artillery is lead by the Master-General of the Artillery, and consists of both the standing ground forces but also of specialized schools & camps for officers of artillery components.

#### Logistics

Logistics are managed by the Board of Ordinance, which works in tandem with the other boards to ensure a flow of supplies to Ostron military engagements. The Board of Ordinance is lead by the Master General of the Ordinance, who manages the army's engineers, fortifications, military supplies, transport, field hospitals, among other miscellaneous functions.

Matinsoq

Matinsoq, officially the **Workers State of Matinsoq**, is a Syndicalist country in northern Akaina.

### History

In 1905 Matin Labor Front (Syndicalist) won the Parliamentary elections. In the aftermath, they declared their sponsorship of a global worker’s revolution.

### Geography

Due to the Arctic conditions, Matinsoq is cut off from the rest of the world between October and April each year. During this period, Matinsoq can communicate with the rest of the world by telegraph wire to Kuagaaruk.

### Government

* **Chief of the Executive Council** (also Party General Secretary): Representative Jods Larkin
* **Foreign Minister**: Representative Nichol Buchanan
* **Revolutionary Forces Minister**: Representative Elji Girley Falyn
* **Mining Minister**: Representative Max Baginisky
* **Education and Indoctrination Minister**: Representative Alcaste Deambris
* **Hunting and Agricultural Minister**: Representative I.M. Mann

### Economy

Matinsoq's economy revolves almost exclusively around the extraction of bauxite for purposes of aluminum. Due to limited electricity available in Matinsoq itself, most of the bauxite is shipped elsewhere for refining.

Elzbieta Urmana (Queen)

*For other people named Elzbieta Urmana, see Elzbieta Urmana (Princess).*

Elzbieta Urmana (1781-1827) was queen of Liotain between 1801 and 1827, succeeding her mother Maurizia Urmana.

She was highly regarded as a beauty from an early age.

Maurizia encouraged her daughter to marry early.  Maurizia's health was starting to be uncertain, and she also had quiet concerns that Walter Bonaventura might try to negotiate a marriage of convenience with Elzbieta. Maurizia wanted to deny that opportunity.

Elzbieta reigned during the Bonaventurian Wars and the Four Banners War.

Her son Edmundas Urmana succeeded her as king.
Orazia Dusvente

Orazia Dusvente (born August 22, 1889) is a Liotainian adventuress from the city of Sventoji.

She is the only daughter of Dr. Adomas Dusvente (b.1864) and Domante Simonis-Dusvente (b.1871).

### Family

Orazia's paternal grandfather Mykolas Dusvente - the son of an azularie factory manager - was one of the main investors into Liotainian railways. Since he diversified his holdings, he never became a "railway baron," but still amassed rather significant affluence. As a result of Mykolas Dusvente's investments, the family is independently wealthy, and Orazia's father Adomas was able to pursue his hobby of archaeology without worries about funding.

On her maternal side, Orazia's mother Domante came from the Simonis family, which was involved in shipbuilding.

According to family history, the Dusvente family are descended from Nazarios Dusvente, a Liotainian privateer and corsair.

### Education

Orazia attended the University of Sventoji between August 1906 and April 1908.

#### Sports

Orazia trained in imtynes (Liotainian wrestling) and acrobatics. Unlike most Liotainians, she is a rather indifferent equestrian.

### Hobbies

Enjoys opera, but only attends with friends.

### Pets

Orazia has a cordillera cat named Areli, who she adopted as a kitten. Areli generally accompanies her everywhere, as cordillera cats tend to have certain behaviors very similar to dogs.
Elzbieta Urmana (Princess)

*For other people named Elzbieta Urmana, see Elzbieta Urmana (Queen).*

**Princess Elzbieta Urmana** (b.1882) is a member of the House of Urmana; she is the younger sister of King Aronn Urmana and Prince Edmundas Urmana, and the aunt of Queen Kotryna of Liotain. She usually goes by the name *Princess Elze*.

Upon turning eighteen, Princess Elze attended two years at the Svyturys Naval Academy, followed by a four-year term of service in the Royal Liotainian Navy.

Although well-regarded for her administrative business sense and her military skills, she is seriously lacking in diplomacy. In 1899, she famously refused to dance with a foreign ambassador with the words "I am not that desperate, and you are not that lucky; and if you do not remove your hand from *my* arm, I'll remove your hand from *your* arm."

Elze is an accomplished sritije player, serving as the team patroness (and #2 lancer) of the Club du Karoliniskes. She is also a patroness of the Liotainian Royal Opera and Ballet Theatre, and usually represents the House of Urmana in the royal box, almost never missing a performance.

Dakuat

Dakuat is a country in northern Zamoroziet.

Dakuat's capital city of Qua-Daku, as well as over two thirds of the national population, is located in the southeastern section of the country, along the Daku River, which flows northward toward the Dakuat Sea (a branch of the Encircled Sea).

In 1867, Dakuat and Nunat held border talks to finalize their respective borders. The final treaty resulted in Dakuat receiving a western coast, although this coastline is quite rocky and usually ice-bound year round. There are only two minor ports on this coastline, and they are accessible only one to two months each year. The western coast lies over a small mountain range from the rest of Dakuat, and hosts only 5% of the national population.

Following the 1867 border treaty with Nunat, the Kalajiit tribal confederation in the extreme north sent a messenger indicating that they did not recognize Dakuat sovereignty in their affairs. Dakuat responded with a message granting them "full autonomy" and made no efforts to actually control the territory. Official government maps still show Kalajiit as part of Dakuat, but list it as an "autonomous zone."

In the 1870s, a railroad from was proposed running from the Encircled Sea, on the Gulf of Somal, all the way to Qua-Daku. However, the project was shelved due to funding and technical challenges.

Reindeer herding and mining serves as one of the primary economc activities of the Daku River Valley.

Dakuat is ruled by the Atunshey, who administers the country through a hierarchy of tribal chieftains (sheys). The current Atunshey, Anjor Shey (b.1855), was educated abroad (in Prem-Bol) and was expected to be "weak." Instead, Anjor has proven remarkably canny and extremely tough, willing to mix foreign reforms with traditional lifestyle.

The national bureaucracy, however, is not highly modern.

The country's National Army is small, but professionally organized under the direct command of the Atunshey. A large portion of the troops are organized as cavalry, organized into squads of nine men, each provided with three heavy sledges or two-wheeled wagons and draft reindeer.

Telegraph lines reached Qua-Daku in 1895.

Surnames did not arrive in Dakuat until the 1880s, and nearly half the population still only carries one name.
Krocylea

**Krocylea** is a mythological island in the Encircled Sea. It was first mentioned in the 2nd Century BCE by a Reman writer, who alleged that Krocylea was located halfway between the Strait of Moirai and the Cape of Syrellia, and was the source of a fruit that granted mortals visions of the gods.

The island made occasional appearances in legends and literature through the 10th Century, although Liotainian and Firoccan sailors concluded fairly decisively by the 7th Century that the island did not exist. Krocylea instead became more closely associated with supernatural events. In Solymitana Delivered, Krocylea was the home of the sorcerer Gaetano, and existed as a sort of underworld. In the Syrellian faery-tale *Arkaitz and the Queen of the Dolphins*, the island serves as the place of meeting between Arkaitz and Naia.

Cordillera Cat

The Cordillera Cat is species of wild cat native to south and central Liotain, particularly the mountainous regions. They are solitary and nocturnal, but can be friendly to humans.

### Characteristics

The cordillera cat is very similar to the larger ocelot in appearance, although the head is a little longer, the eyes larger, and the tail and legs longer. It weighs from 2.6 to 4 kg (5.7 to 8.8 lb), with a body length of 48 to 79 cm (19 to 31 in) and a tail length of 33 to 51 cm (13 to 20 in).

Its fur is brown and marked with numerous rows of dark brown or black rosettes and longitudinal streaks. The undersides are paler, ranging from buff to white, and the tail has numerous dark bands and a black tip. The backs of the ears are black with circular white markings in the centre.

### Ecology and behavior

The cordillera cat is a primarily terrestrial animal, but is also an adept climber. Like all cats, the cordillera cat is an obligate carnivore, requiring meat for survival. This cat eats small mammals, lizards, birds, eggs, invertebrates, and the occasional frog. Occasionally, the cat will eat grasses. The cordillera cat stalks its prey from a distance, and once in range, it pounces to catch and kill the prey.

They are generally nocturnal, but in dry areas such as southern Liotain, where their main food source consists of diurnal lizards, they are more likely to be active during the day. Cordillera cats are social when they are comfortable, emitting a range of vocalizations ranging from purrs, chirps, squeaks, and

### As a Pet

Cordillera cats are occasionally kept as pets due to their striking fur patterns. They can be trained to walk on a leash, as well as play fetch. However, owners need to provide fairly constant mental stimulation to keep a pet cordillera cat from devolving into disruptive or even destructive behavior, usually caused by boredom and a lack of engagement.
Atangmik Railway

The 40 km Atangmik Railway is a 600mm narrow-gauge rack railway constructed in Kanqaamiut.

### History

The railway was started in 1898 and completed in the summer of 1904.

The 600mm gauge was chosen for construction due to the very tight tolerances required. The track came in prefabricated sections, initially being placed directly on the ground, with improvements following over time. Due to the gradient, a rack railway was selected for the first half of the line. Due to difficulties with steam locomotives operating on the line, it was designed from the start as an electric railway, with a coal-fired power generation plant in Atangmik providing power to the locomotives.

The advantages of the prefabricated 600mm track soon became apparent as it allowed work crews to easily repair sections damaged by the expansion and contraction of the earth, caused by freeze and thaw cycles.

The railway operates between April and October of each year; usually significant maintenance is required each spring.

### Route

The railway runs from the port town of Atangmik up to the mines at Isulijarnik (altitude 510m). The railway has an average gradient of 1.28%, with a maximum gradient of 11.3%.

Although the last 20 km of the railway run across relatively level ground, the first half of the line runs up a steep canyon. The engineers developed an Abt rack-and-pinion system for the locomotives that allowed the line to climb quickly, and thus completely avoided the need for complicated tunnels (as was required on the Paamiut Railway to the north). However, a switchback was required at Kilometer 10.2.

As a result of the switchback, trains always run with two locomotives, one on each end.

Snowsheds cover 25 kilometers of the line.
