regenciesWest

Regencies West, often stylized regenciesWest in official materials, is a fictional subnational region in the western part of the sovereign state of Veridia. It comprises several regencies with local councils and limited autonomy under a regional governor appointed by the central government. The regional capital is Solara.

Geographically, regenciesWest spans coastal plains along the western seaboard and inland uplands toward the Misty Highlands. The climate ranges from temperate maritime to continental inland, supporting diverse ecosystems. The Blue River and Silver Brook drain the region and support agriculture and industry.

Historically, the area was unified after constitutional reforms reorganizing western provinces into regenciesWest. The name appears in governance documents and branding, while daily administration remains at the regency level. The region has developed a mixed identity balancing local traditions with national policy.

Governance is conducted by a regional council elected by residents, working with a governor who represents regenciesWest in national affairs. The council handles planning, education, healthcare, transport, and environmental management. Local regency councils retain authority over municipal services.

The economy is diversified, with fishing, agriculture, light manufacturing, and services. The port of Harborview and nearby industrial zones are anchors, while tourism centers on coastal towns and national parks. Infrastructure investments emphasize roads, rail, and regional airports.

Demographically, regenciesWest hosts urban and rural communities with multiple language groups and traditions. Cultural life includes regional festivals, markets, and crafts. The region hosts several higher education and research facilities contributing to sustainable development.

Notable locations include Harborview Port, Solara City, Misty Highlands National Park, and Rookridge University. Regencies West is cited in policy discussions as a model of subnational governance within Veridia.
