Kirov (Finn. Kirovi) is the fourth-largest city in Uralica (after Yekaterinburg, Perm', and Izhevsk), is bigger than the capital Syktyvkar, and was the centre of Uralica's wheat trade when wheat was still exported. It is also a major centre of overall commerce in Uralica, even though the headquarters of the Uralikan Ykköspankki (First Bank of Uralica) is in Ukhta. At one point it was Uralica's financial capital, though this has since shifted to Yekaterinburg.

  • Kirov (Finn. Kirovi) is the fourth-largest city in Uralica (after Yekaterinburg, Perm', and Izhevsk), is bigger than the capital Syktyvkar, and was the centre of Uralica's wheat trade when wheat was still exported. It is also a major centre of overall commerce in Uralica, even though the headquarters of the Uralikan Ykköspankki (First Bank of Uralica) is in Ukhta. At one point it was Uralica's financial capital, though this has since shifted to Yekaterinburg. Its industrial sector has actually shrunk since pre-Robertian times, however the burgeoning retail and finance sectors, combined with a new river port (the old one went bankrupt in the 1990s), an increase in the importance of ferrous metallurgy, and the emergence of a large printing and publishing business, have more than made up for this. At one time, it had a reputation for having some of the worst-maintained roads in all of Russia, however upon becoming a part of Uralica, the road infrastructure improved dramatically within just two months. It sits on Uralica's first two numbered highways - UH-1 and UH-2, now part of the Intra-Uralican Highway Network - and the unitary authority contains highways 1A and 30, with 30A connecting just south of the UA boundaries in Kstinino.
