Burrafirth Municipality

The outskirts of Burrafirth

**Burrafirth Municipality** is a municipality in the Eastern Bayland region. It is the largest municipality in the region by area. It mostly consists of farmland and some forests.

## Settlements

Burrafirth Municipality has many small settlements, and most urban areas in the village have a population below 500.

## Transport

The municipality is crossed by national road 11 and local road 109. The East-West Mainline and East Coast Line railways both run through municipality.
Brenstead

Brenstead's main railway station

Brenstead is a town in the region Eastern Bayland. It was the capital of the region until 1951. The urban area has a population of 34 149 and is the second largest urban area in Eastern Bayland by population.

## History

It is unknown when Brenstead was founded, but it was possibly founded by the original polish settlers of the island. However, the English and Õbii-speaking population had control of the city by the early 1800s. As Brenstead is located in the east of Bayland, it was mostly uninvolved in the Bayland Independence War, aside from producing weapons. The town was chosen as the capital of the newly established Eastland region, which consisted of modern-day Newnorth, Eastern Bayland, and Portsburyshire.

In the late 1800s, a railway came to Brenstead, but Eastend was chosen as the main railway interchange in Eastern Bayland, causing Eastend, which was rapidly industrializing, to grow to be larger than Brenstead, with Eastend's population overtaking Brenstead in 1896. During the early 1900s, many voiced their opinions on Brenstead being a bad capital for Eastland. This was remedied slightly by the split of Eastland into the modern regions. However, Eastend officials argued that Eastend was larger and therefore a more suitable capital. The Eastern Bayland government eventually decided to move the capital to Eastend in 1951.

Brenstead growed slowly during the 20th century, as no major industries were established. The population of the town hasn't grown significantly since the 1930s, as many residents moved out. However, Brenstead has a growing IT sector, and is predicted to reach a population of 50 000 by 2033.
National roads in Bayland

**National roads** are a type of road in Bayland. They are assigned and maintained exclusively by the RAB. They have 2 digit numbers and the standard varies from small 2-lane roads to highways with 3 lanes per direction.

## Types

### E-roads

E-roads are the rarest type of national road, with the only one in the country being the E2. These roads only differ from other national roads by having a number in the international E-road network.

### Centerline roads

Centerline roads include all roads with a center line or railing separating the directions of travel. These roads include highways, 2+1 roads, and some rare 2 lane centerline roads.

### Non-centerline roads

Non-centerline roads include all roads without a center line or railing separating the directions of travel. These roads are inherently more dangerous and therefore have a lower speed limit. These roads are most common in rural areas with low traffic, as main arteries between cities are usually centerline roads.

## Speed limits

We will never let Bayland lose, when Kwitzka gave us what we deserved, we celebrated for a year.

We will never let Bayland lose, we may have lost the battle, but we can still win the war.

But if the time ever comes, Bayland's soul will rise up to heaven.

We must protect Bayland, we cannot take it for granted, but if we ever do, Bayland's soul will rise to heaven.

But if the time ever comes, Bayland's soul will rise up to heaven.

Borderside Line

The Borderside Line south of Newcoast

The **Borderside Line** is a railway line from Newcoast in Newborder to Bleckmouth in the Greater Border Region, via Falkbury, Bordertown, and Bleckbridge. The line was built in 1954 as part of the post-WW2 expansion of SR (now Bayrail). Trains on the line run under the Greater Border Region-owned Coast Express brand.

## Service

Passenger services on the line are currently operated by SVL Bayland under the Coast Express brand. Local trains run 1tph on the full route in offpeak hours, and 1tph on half of the route (Newcoast-Bordertown and Bleckmouth-Bordertown) during peak hours. Regional trains run 1tph on the full route in peak hours.

SVL Bayland also runs night trains on the line under the Coast Express brand. Due to low demand, these night trains are some of the shortest night trains in Bayland.

In addition to the passenger services, Bayrail operates multiple freight trains per day on the line.

Previously, the line had been operated by Bayrail under the Coast Express brand, after the region-owned GBR Rail took over services on the line in 2016 and established the Coast Express brand. Before 2016, the line was operated as a regular part of the Bayrail network.

## Line standard

The line speed on most of the line is 130km/h, although between Bleckmouth and Bleckbridge it is 140km/h. The line was electrified in 1977, due to fears of another oil crisis. The line is single track with 400m passing loops.

Õbii

***De blát le tilgén ki õbii héri.*** *This page is availible in õbii here.*
*Õbii is a constructed language created in 2022. It is still unfinished and subject to change. The current documentation for the language can be found here.*

Õbii is a language spoken in Bayland and parts of Kwitzka and Lustar. It is spoken mainly in Greater Border Region and parts of Newnorth, Eastern Bayland, and Capital Region. Most cities in Bayland and many in Kwitzka and Lustar have significant Õbii minorites (above 2000 people). Small minorities also speak Õbii in other countries.

The language is considered a Germanic language, consisting almost entirely of loans from other Germanic languages, Kwnat, and Polish. Many words, however, have unknown etymologies, likely the result of a language reform. It is relatively new, with the language having been formed during the 16th century.

## Spelling reforms

### Schwa reform

Prior to April 2022, the letter Ә(ә) was used for the sound /ә/. This was replaced by Õ(õ) on April 1 2022. The old spelling is no longer used and is not considered acceptable in new writing.

### Ú reform

In December 2023, Õbii spelling was reformed and a new letter was added to the Õbii alphabet: Ú(ú). It replaced the digraph uu. The older spelling is still used, and is still considered acceptable. Most Õbii writing since the reform, however, uses the new spelling.

Optinia

Optinia's city center

Optinia is an urban area in the Capital Region, usually considered a suburb of Beachport, due to their close proximity.

## History

Optinia was founded in 1839. It grew into a key trading hub for goods heading into Beachport, further increasing both in population and importance in 1903 when the Ogston-Lintham Railway (now the BSW) reached the village. Optinia's growth was slow during the mid-20th century, as it did not have any important factories. In the 1970s, the town planning council in Optinia realized the potential of the town as a suburb of Beachport, with good transport links already being in place. Many new areas of Optinia were subsequently built, causing the population of Optinia to increase rapidly.

## Transport

Optinia lies on the Beachport Southwestern Railway, allowing easy travel into Beachport by rail. There are also good road links, with national road 32 from Beachport to Bleckmouth passing through Optinia. Busses in Optinia are operated by GBT.
East Coast Line

The East Coast Line in Burrafirth Municipality.

The **East Coast Line** is a railway from Portsbury to Norsham. It passes through the regions of Portsburyshire, Eastern Bayland, and Newnorth. The railway was built partially by Bayrail and partially by 2 private railway companies.

## History

The first part of the railway was opened in 1892 as the Portsbury-Brenstead Railway (PBRW), with another private railway called the Eastend Southern Railway (ESR) built a line north from Brenstead to Eastend in 1899. Both railways were bought by Bayrail in 1909. In 1924, Bayrail built an extension to the line to Helston, to connect with the Norsham Line. However, due to Eastend Central being built as a terminus station, trains had to reverse in Eastend, a problem that remains today. The line was electrified late for Bayland, with the first electric trains running in 1998.

## Line Standard

The line is one of the slowest railway lines in Bayland, with a line speed of 80-110km/h. The line is electrified with the Baylandese standard 25kV 50Hz AC OHLE. The line is entirely single track with passing loops, except the parts of the line shared with other railways.

## Service

Passenger services on the line are operated by Bayrail, with local trains, regional trains, and some intercity trains being operated on the line. The line has timber trains on the northern section, as the Helston area has heavy forest cover. Other freight trains are commonly seen on the line, although it is less of an important freight transport artery than other railways or roads in the area.
N-Stat

**N-Stat** is a company gathering statistics in the region of Newborder. It is headquartered in Newcoast and was founded in 2004. The company is owned by NPB and focuses on audience measurement in TV and radio in the region of Newborder.

## Purpose and methodology

N-Stat collects information on behalf of various private radio stations of the Newborder region and NPB. The company ranks stations by total market share, and also measures listening time, most common way of listening (FM, AM, DAB/DAB+, Internet) and most common listening location (car, at work, at home or elsewhere).

The research methodology is based on a continuous diary survey (ex. Christmas holidays) measuring the listening behaviour of over 24,000 adults (aged 15+) a year. The diary is filled in on a quarter-hour basis for one week's listening drawn from a sample representative of the individual station transmission area and the region as a whole.

Historically, the data has been collected from respondents via a paper diary. From quarter 3, 2011 N-Stat introduced an online version of a radio listening diary (Radio Diary) as an additional collection methodology. It is recognised that respondent engagement is critical to the continued quality of the survey and that by offering a choice as to how people record and return their listening data will help maintain the current high levels of participation and completion into the future. Additional benefits also include higher accuracy in attribution of listening to the different platforms (digital/non-digital) as well as higher in home completion that in turn enhances overall data quality.

The Iron Gate District

*Me? No, I'd NEVER move from Iron Gate. What a better place to fit the whole... serial murderer aesthetic than the estate that half the population thinks has dead people in its walls... Does it? well, you certainly can't prove it doesn't!*

*-Oligarch Nikolai Von Ionnovich*

## Iron Gate

Part of one of the five districts of Salena, Iron Gate is an estate that once housed the late Czar Micholash and is now currently occupied by **Oligarch Nikolai Von Ionnovich**. Marking one of the oldest districts of Salena known as Mortoraa, Iron Gates sheer size is enough to block sunsets over its respective area. Though no stranger to old money, a majority of people who live here are simply middle class civilans or students who attend the districts medical university.

◉ ⸻ ◉

The estate of Iron Gate is a peculiar case when it comes to naming conventions, as it breaks the rest of the estates ideals of being named after their owner or their owners pillar of truth. Many speculate that it is because of the architecture of the building consisting of mainly black iron. A materal only used in Salein architecture that caters to the upper class because of its prestege. Others say it is because of the loomingly large spiked gate at the front, something other estates seem to lack. But truthfully, The estate wasn't created for the present Oligarch Von Ionnovich, but rather the previous Micholash, who had a completely different set of values. The reason for Iron Gates odd naming died with its architect, and now the house is much like its current resident, is an ominous reminder of the previous Czars iron tight grip over the nation.

## Mortoraa

Mortoraa is one of the largest districts of Salena, but unlike other large districts, tends to be a bit more sleepy in comparison the the hustle and bustle of the streets of Salena. Located directly near the heart of the city, it is peculiar that Mortoraa is deemed as deadly quiet. Perhaps it is the presence of the Oligarch that resides over the district that causes people to remain quiet, as not to disturb him. After all, to the people of Salena, Nikolai is less of a person, and is more akin to a foke-lore monster, contained within his estate. Too much chattering, and he may just come out.

Though despite the fear that lines the streets of Mortoraa, There isin't just sleepy suburbs. What Mortoraa is actually known for, is it's academics. Actually opened and funded by Oligarch Von Ionnovich, within the Mortoraa district actually lays a university for the medical sciences. Only rivaled by the prestigious **Saga Academy** in its programs, it is quite a highly respected college to attend in Parthas. Though funding it and creating it, Nikolai keeps his hands off the institution, and will rarely appear on campus seemingly at random to speak. These rare encounters are some of the only times people can see the districts Oligarch in a bit more of a positive light.
