Hyomeniga Province

Hyomeniga Province (Mirselec Hyomeniga denai) is Province 21 of Risevne, and one of the so-called Mountain Provinces. Facing the Lavgor Inland Sea on its eastern coast, it borders Besurgana Province on its south, Tasenir Province on its north, and Lorudac, Neiberin and Tineye provinces on its west. Its capital is the coastal city of Nitaro.

By area Hyomeniga is the largest province on Masalne, though its population is comparatively much smaller. Encompassing the Mathormagos mountains within most of its area, the province is known as a rugged land with beautiful scenery.

Geography

Hyomeniga is mostly dominated by the Mathormagos mountain range, most importantly the Hyomene Plateau which rises in the centre of the province and takes up around one-third of the area. A plain at an altitude of about 600 metres and surrounded by mountains reaching up to 2200 metres, this plateau is much enriched by volcanic soils and is a highly productive area for agriculture, especially the ranching of cattle.
