Kyningsmer (Azmaran pronunciation: [kʏnɪŋzmɛɾ]; Weranian: Königsmeer, Borish: Koningsmaar) is the capital and largest city of the Azmaran province of Ostlaak. It is the sixth largest city in Azmara, with a population of 151,787 residents in 2017, while its wider urban area has a population of over 300,000 residents, making it one of the largest urban areas in the country outside of the central Bojnersteden conurbation.
The city is considered to be a religious centre of both Azmara and the Westmarckian movement of Sotirianity, with the Primate of Kyningsmer serving as the reverend of Kyningsmer Cathedral and the primus inter pares head of the Church of Azmara. It is also historically significant as a major industrial centre during the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries due to its proximity to the mining villages of the Ostlaak Hills, with the city being prominent in the early mass production of steel.
