Grana (Telsinqa pronunciation: ['gɾa.na]), officially the Grana Metropolis, is the capital and largest city of Riyata. With a population of 12,271,902 within the city proper distributed across 565.27 km2 (218.25 sq mi), it is also the most densely populated major city in the country. Situated in central Hitovy in the Tiqebela region, Grana is the demographic and geographic core of the Grana metropolitan area, with an estimated total population of 19,700,000. Located in the Tola Sound at the mouth of the Taliqen river, Grana has been a major Vatupic settlement since its foundation by Classical Taxic settlers in 502 BCE. It consists of seven constituent departments, known as districts, of which two make up the Grana Capital Area and five are located within the state of Hitovy. Modern Grana was created in 1895 when the cities of Grana (now Solisa district) and Rosiqa were consolidated into a single municipal entity under the control of the federal government. However, over the 20th century, Grana's urban sprawl expanded well beyond its official borders, and neighboring departments of Hitovy were brought under the jurisdiction of the Grana Metropolitan Government as they became further socially and economically integrated with the city. The seven modern districts of Grana are: Alo, Beliye, Maqisal, Rosiqa, Solisa, Taliqen, and Tiqen. The official nickname, "Triple Grana," refers to the fact that three of its districts (Rosiqa, Solisa, and Tiqen) were once major, separate cities before being merged into Grana. (See More...)
