Bukhara is a hub of trade from the mines in Hayasa. Sales occur from the raw producers to merchants, and these merchants typically resell these goods in other locations.

History

Hayasa-Azzi is a nation older than Hycernia. Hayasa first formed about 1200 years ago, from where historians are not certain. What is known is that a group of different tribes/humans came together to make Hayasa. Some scholars call the current Hayasa kingdom Neo-Hayasa-Azzi because of the recent reformation, but this is not in common parlance.

Architecture

Akin to the Ottoman Empire during the early Middle ages.

Geography

This city exists on a large plateau of rocks surrounded by sand. Huge tent cities exist on the outskirts of the city for the poorest of the population. These people tend to be shepherds, guides, or unemployed.
