The Minister's City

The Minister's City is the capital and most populous city of Mokita and the United Elemental Nations. Located in the central-most point of Mokita, the home of the UEN's most elite citizens—as well as all major government and military workings—it has been a major settlement since the beginning of the UEN in 30 AF.

The city received its name due to the fact that it has been the home of the Minister of Saudade since the first minister, Sonder, settled there. Since then, the Ministry Castle has been built, and has served as both the home to the current minister and his or her family, as well as an important government building in which many important political and military figures reside.

The Minister's City is characterized by its opulence and wealth, even in comparison to the rest of Mokita, which is already the most affluent of all the Elemental Nations. Art, culture, and music is abound throughout the city, and all of its residents live an opulent lifestyle.

The Minister's City is also known for having the most disproportionate Elemental to Moore ratio (1:6), as almost every resident has at least one Moore servant. This has historically made the city one of the most susceptible places in the UEN to Moore Uprising (see: the Great Uprising of 1654), which has led to increased militarization in recent centuries.

The city—still scared by the Halla Castle Massacre in 2000—also puts a significant amount of resources into locating and expelling any hallas who may appear, with the most extreme example occurring within the castle itself: whenever a child in the castle is nearing their fourteenth birthday, they are sent to the border between Mokita and Ayera, in order to protect the castle from any further attacks from the Iktsarpok. In the rare case that the child turns out to be a halla, they are left there.
