Eldursjóland

It is the world's northernmost capital of a sovereign state. It is located in western Eldursjóland, on the southern shore of Eklajerdrisingr Bay. With a population of around 140,000 (and over 200,000 in the Greater Sjnöhöhnhaevn Area) it is the heart of Eldursjoland's economic and governmental activity.

Sjnöhöhnhaevn is believed to be the location of the first permanent settlement in Eldursjóland, which Amedsfüun Ingels is said to have established around 870. Until the 18th century, there was no urban development in the city location. The city was founded in 1786 as an official trading town and grew steadily over the next decades, as it transformed into a regional and later national centre of commerce, population and governmental activities.
