Ŝalkarjin gets its name from the river this city sits on, the Ŝalkar river, combined with the Proto-Calutian word for city, 'jin.'
History
This city had historically been the center of Hemberdorian and Calutian culture, with the city having been the capital of Hemberdoria for many centuries. Its role as the capital of Hemberdoria has stood the test of time, and has even gone through a devastating fire and bombing, from both events it has recovered and rebuilt. It acted as the capital for the Kahân dynasty, the first Hemberdorian dynasty, and all the dynasties after that.
