  • Mikun' (Russ. Микунь, Finn Miikuni) is a Uralican city, located in Komiland just a short distance off of Highway UH-16, and 15 kilometres north of Aykino on Highway UH-5. After Tráty, it is the second-largest settlement in the county. Founded in 1937 as a gulag camp, it became a city in 1959, based around the railroad industries, which kept the centre running well beyond the Cataclysm, although it did lose its city status in 2007 because the then-rulers didn't think it was big enough. This would later prove useful, as Mikun' became a safe zone for Uralics fleeing persecution during Great War III. Those Komi living in the city were more than happy to welcome in their Uralic brethren from further south. Nowadays, Mikun' is still a railroad city, although there are other industries as well. Although the compressor factory stopped working with oil and gas, it was never shut down - instead, it was refitted to work with industrial gases, which would be supplemented by the building of an industrial gas production factory right next door. Not surprisingly, metallurgy became very important, especially after the discovery of unimaginable quantities of iron in Uralica, and machine-building soon followed. A specialty sector of certain cities and towns in the area (Mikun', but also the nearby city of Zheshart and towns like Aykino and Vogvozdino) is that of railroad track repair. All of Komiland, Northwest Uralica, the Arkhangel'sk-Severodvinsk unitary authority, the Syktyvkar unitary authority, Mennoland, and Kotlas (county) are served in this regard by factories in the Mikun' area, and the fleets of trucks and specialised vehicles at their disposal.
