Geography

History

Golanbe is famous for being, by proportion, the settlement that lost the most of its people during the Fourth Global War. During the war, the Risevan Army was organised for convenience and morale into units according to the hometowns of recruits, and the regiments of Golanbe repeatedly found themselves in the thick of some of the worst fighting of the war, including the Battle of Garmagas Island and the Battle of Hamakairanoe; because of their proximity to Isana and their being well-known as alternative factory sites, they were also heavily bombed by Coalition attacks. All in all, out of 81,000 people at the start of the war and discounting children who were evacuated, a shocking 22,000 died and another 29,000 were wounded. Most of the city was also ravaged by bombing attacks.
