Domaani

Domaani is a fictional city created for world-building and narrative purposes. In its imagined geography, it serves as the capital of the Domaani Province within the federated state of Veridia. The city sits on the Domaani River, near its delta, and experiences a temperate climate with wet winters and warm summers.

Domaani was founded in the 11th century as a trading post at a river junction. It grew under successive rulers, becoming a regional commercial center by the 14th century. In the modern era, it industrialized modestly and developed a university and cultural institutions that drew scholars and artisans.

The city sprawls along the riverbanks, with an old walled core on higher ground and newer districts along the waterfront. Bridges connect neighborhoods, and the Great Market Hall anchors a pedestrian-centered downtown.

Domaani's population is described as diverse, with communities descended from merchants, farmers, and artisans. Domaani and Veridian are spoken; Domaani is a constructed language used in fiction. The city is known for metalwork, ceramics, and folk music.

Its economy centers on river trade, crafts, and small manufacturing. A regional railway and a highway corridor link Domaani to neighboring towns. The city hosts Domaani University, a research and arts campus.

Domaani is governed by a mayor and city council within the Veridian federal framework. It maintains cultural partnerships with neighboring cities and participates in regional development initiatives.
