Tauhad written in ancient Ithradic Dwarven Cuneiform

Tauhad is an ancient dwarven city and the capital of the Commonwealth of the Ithrads, a sovereign dwarven state in south central Pytharnia. The city name, 'Tauhad,' means 'The Lodes' in the Ithradic Dwarven Language, because it was rich in gold ore. It was established in 9687 AS by Kuhamite dwarves who had migrated from Midrardia to the mountains after the Flood of Aturyanda. Tauhad later became the mother city of Qaish'aa dwarven colonies in the southwestern Jaggudorns. The city became the capital of the dwarven dynasty that unified the dwarven tribes and clans of the Ithrads into a single kingdom. Although the gold ore is thought largely depleted, Tauhad today has several active ore processing firms that work the remaining less pure deposits in the mountains. Tauhad is an important industrial leader in manufacturing, titancraft development and production, and traditional dwarven metallurgy.

Tauhad is located almost entirely underground. The surface portion of Tauhad is called Upper Tauhad and provides access and support for the underground city. Tauhad proper is home to about 110,000 dwarven inhabitants.

Tauhad is divided into seventeen musqa' or districts.
