Valegoria, formally the Valegoria Autonomous Urban Zone (Ostro-Ludzic: Autonómna Mestskă Zona Valegorska, Valdavian: Zona Autonomă Valegoria, Rheigner: Freizona Sargestatt), is a metropolis in the Prime Republic of Ostrozava, and its largest city with a population of 9,xxx,xxx. The city stands on the Karmin Fork, the confluence of the Karmin and Balarog Rivers and namesake of the region of Transkarminia. Known until the High Middle Ages by its ancient name of Saragetra (Rheigner: Sargestatt), the city served as the capital of Tervingia and Valdavia-Rheigen and has been an important center of Kupalnitsan and broader Belisarian civilization since antiquity, with a history spanning millennia.
Valegoria is considered to be the most diverse city in Ostrozava. No major ethnic group holds majority; Valdavians, Ostrozavans, Rheigners, the three co-nationalities of the Prime Republic continue to be the largest demographics, although significant populations of Dzhuvens, Kupalnitsan Jews, and others continue to exist. Valegoria is a hub of cultural events and governmental administrative apparatus; the Ostrozavan Civil Service is headquartered at the Karmin Fork Annex. The city's economy relies primarily on tourism, although services and information-technology are rapidly growing sectors. Extending beyond city limits, the Autonomous Urban Zone includes the entirety of the Valley (Valdavian:Valea) metropolitan area.
