Taluste

Taluste is a major city in Risevne, situated in the south on the east side of the Feladmena Plain. One of the three designated cities of Risevne, it forms the eastern end of the conurbation known as Ibretal and has a distinct culture from the other two major cities of Isana and Bresnga. It is the second largest city of Risevne, with an urban-area population of 7,276,550.

Geography

Taluste's location on the eastern end of the Feladmena Plain, where the last of the Marhormagos mountain ranges meet the coast, means its terrain is much more rugged than the plain-dominated terrain of Isana and Bresnga; for this reason it is sometimes known as the Hill City, or Konesanite. The city's residential areas stretch along the eastern coast, while the industrial regions tend to be farther within the hills. The entire city has an area of 831 square kilometres.

Economy

Taluste's modern economy is centred around high-end products and research and development, especially in computers, robotics, life sciences and precision engineering.
