Majlisda

Majlisda is a town and municipality situated in the coastal region of Meridia, a fictional country in the eastern continent. It lies along the lower reaches of the Majlis River and faces the Gulf of Lira, anchoring a modest harbor and a compact town center. The municipality administers a cluster of surrounding villages and serves as a local hub for commerce, education, and services.

Its name is commonly traced to a local term meaning "assembly place," reflecting historic functions as a meeting point for traders, elders, and fishermen. The settlement developed from a fishing village into an urbanized community over several centuries and gained formal municipal status in the early modern era.

Geographically, Majlisda encompasses a shoreline district and adjacent low inland plains. The climate is maritime and subtropical, with mild winters and warm, humid summers. The delta area supports agriculture, palm groves, and market gardens, while the harbor interfaces with nearby fishing grounds and trade routes.

Economy centers on fishing and seafood processing, complemented by agriculture, small-scale crafts, and retail services. Tourism has grown around the historic harbor, weekly markets, and traditional architecture. Local industries include woodwork, textiles, and cuisine-based crafts that reflect the town’s cultural heritage.

Governance is by a mayor and a town council, elected to set policy and oversee municipal services. Majlisda maintains basic educational facilities, including a primary and secondary school, a public library, and a health clinic. Cultural life emphasizes markets, festivals, and religious observances.
