It sits on riverine plains with rolling farmlands to the south and foothills to the north. The climate is temperate, with warm summers and cool winters; average annual precipitation is about 700 millimeters.

Oyhyn began as a riverport in medieval times and grew through trade and skilled crafts. It gained regional significance after the railway reached the area in the late 19th century and later diversified into manufacturing and services in the 20th century.

The economy is diversified, with logistics, food processing, textiles, and public services forming major sectors. The city operates a river port, a rail link to major cities, and a modern road network. It is also a hub for regional commerce.

Oyhyn hosts an annual Riverfest and houses the Brinara Museum of Regional History, two universities, a polytechnic institute, and several libraries. The population is multilingual, with Veridian and neighboring languages spoken.

Oyhyn is governed by a mayor-council system within Veridia’s provincial framework, and it elects representatives to the regional assembly. The city maintains sister-city relationships with several coastal and inland municipalities.

The Riverside Market District, Oyhyn Park, and the Old Town District are among its notable districts.
