Mountain-Ridden Province (Inutilia, Cancioni-Inutilia)

Mountain-Ridden Province is the northernmost province of the State of Inutilia, Cancioni-Inutilia. It has a population of 10,000, one-tenth of which is rural. However, neither of the cities there have particularly impressive populations, and most visitors assume that they are just scaled-up villages until they've been driving through them for half an hour. A great many Inutilian cities are like this, which goes some way to explaining the otherwise distressingly low rural populations.

Perhaps unsurprisingly for a province that was well named, its primary economic input is through mining. Argenti and Congelatonis are both mining cities. At the insistence of Cancionan government they are also military outposts to watch the mountain passes to New Circassia and highway to CROK. At the insistence of the Inutilian government the military outpost of Argenti is also supposed to act as a guard against the Cancionan state.

Being the silverless side of the Cancioni-Inutilian Range, Mountain-Ridden Province has gotten more than a little beaten up in the many Silver Wars before the forcible merge of -499.

Mountain-Ridden Province is the only part of Inutilia that has any truck with Great Star Lobsterism, being in close proximity to Nonostros Odiamos Las Montanas (which is a religious centre).
