Ngol To (Common: /'ŋɒltɒ/), properly written as Ŋołtʿokeq (Old Dze: ['ŋoɬtʼokeq]) and officially the Ŋołtʿokeq Autonomous Foreign Banner (abbr. NAFB) is a recently founded city and Special Autonomous Region in the Dze Confederation. With 1,732 inhabitants and a territory of 80 square kilometres, it is one of the most densely populated areas of the country.

Ngol To was established as a settlement in 1612, after the Tsodzuń of 1612 declared the need for a settlement to flock all foreigners into in order to avoid potential outside interference in the confederation at large and to keep an eye on them. Originally inhabited by native humans meant to staff the original buildings and docks, the port would quickly begin to experience population growth as many nations sought to establish quadrants of economic influence in the city, beginning. That same year the first five Mandates would be issued.

Originally a bay ocassionally frequented by dzeii tribes, the area is set to become one of the most important trading hubs of the Wintry Ocean due to its strategic location as the only port for a thousand kilometres in either direction.

Etymology

The Prestorean Common name of the settlement, Ngol To, comes from the Old Dze term "Ŋołtʿokeq", lit. sea-work-place (of), "sea workshop", which was simplified and romanized in early 1613. Alternate romanizations exist, based off a similar etymology from the local dzenic languages, but these are rarely utilized. The term was also alternatively combined into Ngolto, however most foreign sources prefer the two word Ngol To instead.
