Trevirs is the most populous human city in the Pallathantic Region with 960,000 inhabitants, the fourth most populous in the old world, and heir to a past reaching back into the mists of human history. Trevirs rests atop a large prominence of hills in the Magdanalate of the Empire of Magdala. The Palace of the Imperial Diet rests in Trevirs. Historically, Trevirs was also the place of the Imperial Palace. The city is sometimes called Great Trevirs to distinguish it expressly from Royal Trevirs. Trevirs arose in very ancient times as a Pytharnian Giant settlement and eventually came under control of various human tribes. Since the Fall of the Yophenthean Empire, Trevirs has served as an important skyport between the western Jaggudorns, Medibgö, and the Pallathantic Region. Trevirs is the financial capital of southeastern Pytharnia and the seat of the headquarters of several important organizations including the Dwarven Dragonrail Guild of Pytharnia and the Sovereign Archguild of Master Titancrafters of Pytharnia. Trevirs remains the seat of the Palace of the Imperial Diet of Magdala.

Boroughs
Trevirs is comprised of forty two boroughs that rest both within and without the historic walls. The boroughs are based upon historic districts of the inner city, townships along the Yoise River, and adjacent barrhuigs or fortified towns atop neighboring hills for added protection to the main city of Treivrs. The boroughs are: Ackery Barrhuig, Ackery-Liocha, Annudhain, Bafftammon, Baniryoise, Belgachaib, Blacksmith, Braffergha, Caohirrimur, Citadel, Dragon Knight, Farvedhain, Gaffdiseal, Gantahufel, Gisgedine, Haiseagh, Harleagh, Heailmurgha, High Chancel, Iblatha Barrhuig, Ifosk, Kishrimmer, Lalondela Township, Liocha, Murgavain Slums, Nirgabarrhuig, North Baftammon, North Sewdhania, Ondbriffin, River Yoise Township, Saint Aireánnau's, Saint Bambdringot's, Saint Friadora's, Scoher, Sewdhania, Sprileen, Swahalain, Tandel House, Tarrhabiaith, Temple, Throguntiac, Yophenthean Quarter.

Demographics and Enclaves
Dragonneath
Dragonneath is the informal term for the sprawling network of under-rail tunnels and associated underground tunnels and chambers beneath Trevirs. Most of the Dragonneath that is known to the public is part of the Trevirite Under-Rail. A few portions are part of ancient monastic catacombs. The sewage system at some points meets with the Trevirite Under-Rail system. However, there is an illicit portion which the authorities strive to fill in or seal up which connects to the chambers where chaos cultists are thought to convene to practice their foul religion. Despite the vigilance of the authorities, new tunnels to these places occasionally spring up. Of course, the most infamous places in Dragonneath are those associated with the headquarters and warehouses of organized crime.
