Nouvelle-Rayenne is the capital city of Cassier. It stands on the south bank of the Saint Marie River in the western portion of southern Monbec. Nouvelle-Rayenne borders Rideau, Breloux; the two form the core of the N-R-R census metropolitan area and the National Capital Region. As of 2016, Ottawa had a city population of 651,006 and a metropolitan population of 1,502,205 making it the fourth-largest city and the fifth-largest CMA in Cassier.

Founded in 1826, the city has evolved into the political centre of Cassier. Its original boundaries were expanded through numerous annexations and were ultimately replaced by a new city incorporation and amalgamation in 2001 which significantly increased its land area. The city name Nouvelle-Rayenne was chosen in reference to the city of Rayenne in Gaullica.

Nouvelle-Rayenne has the most educated population among Cassien cities and is home to a number of post-secondary, research, and cultural institutions, including the National Arts Centre, the National Gallery, and numerous national museums. Nouvelle-Rayenne has among the highest standards of living in the nation and the lowest rate of unemployment.
