| - Koutero (Russ. Ковдор, some Finnish dialects Kouteri) is a Uralican city situated in southern Sapmi along Highway UH-40. In spite of its proximity to Old Finland, there is no actual highway link into the area, with only some minor local roads going into the area. There is, however, a rail link running to Rovaniemi that goes through the city. It was founded in 1933 as a mining city, with iron ore and mica becoming the main products very quickly. Given its remoteness though, it would have to become self-sufficient in many areas, especially after the Cataclysm. Nowadays, machine-building, consumer goods manufacturing, auto repair and parts construction, and railway production are also important industries in the town. Trucking is vital to the town as well, as it brings in food produced in places such as Polar Dawns and Murmansk, although some agriculture and food production occurs in-city as well.
