'''"Grey Belt"''' is an informal term for the region of central [[Ostrozava]] that has served as the industrial core of the nation since the mid-1960s. It roughly includes the entire center of the Transkarminian region, from eastern Rheigen to the Karmin Delta in Strakosko. The term "Grey Belt" originates in the [[Ostrozava#Reform and Integration|New Society movement]] of the mid-20th century, which saw rapid industrialization and the construction of many new cities in a distinct architectural style, often at the expense of historical landmarks, especially in small villages. While some cities in the Grey Belt, such as Valegoria, have maintained a majority of their medieval architecture, they are still included due to the density of newly-constructed suburbs and importance to the industrial region.
