Sopron (Ruvelkan Script: Ḻīũṷīṵ; Karvelebi: სოფრონი) is a city in east-central Ruvelka in the historically disputed Zemplen Region between Ruvelka and Syara. Following the end of the Zemplen War, Sopron is recognized as part of Ruvelka and the current capital of the Zemplen Autonomous Region. It is built on the banks of the Rioni River and has a population of 248,687. Between the 1700s and the modern-era, Sopron has changed hands several times and has been characterized as a point of contention between the region's historical nation-states.
Because of its location on the crossroads of northwestern Siduri, it became an important city along continental trade routes and continues to be an important transit route for trade projects. It’s history can be easily reflected in its varying architecture which is a mix of medieval, neoclassical, Syaran, Ruvelkan Traditional, and modern structures. Sopron has long been home to people of multiple cultural, ethnic, and religious backgrounds, but is characterized for being the ancestral home of the Karvelebi people.
