Tulumme

Tulumme is a coastal town and municipality in the fictional country of Solara. Located on the western shoreline along the Gulf of Solara, it serves as a local center for fishing, agriculture, and small-scale commerce. The municipal area encompasses both urban neighborhoods and nearby rural settlements, supporting a population in the low tens of thousands.

The town lies at low elevations near mangrove belts and river estuaries. It has a tropical climate with a wet and dry season, average temperatures around 26 to 28 degrees Celsius, and a coastline that supports diverse birds and marine life.

Historically, the area has been inhabited since pre-colonial times, with written records dating to the 17th century. It developed as a fishing harbor and agricultural market town in the 18th and 19th centuries, and gained municipal status in the early 20th century.

Local economic activity centers on fishing and seafood processing, citrus and cacao farming, and growing hospitality services that serve regional visitors. Small crafts workshops and market trade contribute to employment and local exchange.

Tulumme hosts an annual cultural festival honoring coastal heritage, featuring music, dance, and craft markets. The town preserves several colonial-era buildings and traditional architectural styles, while education is provided by a regional school system and a public library.

The municipality is administered by a mayor and council and is part of Solara's Coastal Province. Transportation links include a regional highway, river ferries, and an airstrip nearby; health and public services are delivered through municipal facilities.

Notable landmarks include the Tulumme Estuary Reserve, a protected mangrove area, and a historic lighthouse at the harbor.
