Belaham

Belaham was the capitol capital city of the planet Maynus. It was also known as the first city to obtain fresh water from the lakes and rivers in the area after the Vandoid Sickness. The city was under Maynian control until the Battle of Belaham, when the Gevorian rebels captured the city. The city was considered by both the Gevorians and the Maynians as a strategic point as it was entirely surrounded by the Lahari forest. Though it was the capitol city for both governments, the Gevorian leader, Jacen Gevorian II resided in Calahari, a small town near Belaham.

History
"No danger, be it man or nature, shall ever strike this city!"

- Laronitis Torrav after Belaham was finished.

Belaham was constructed in 654 BBY after the Vandoid infected water reached the Maynian capitol of Cypris. The Maynian ruler at the time, Laronitis Torrav chose Belaham to be the capitol as he said no danger could reach it due to the thick forest that surrounded them. The city remained unharmed until the Gevorian rebels, led by Jacen Gevorian, marched into the Lahari forest and attacked and defeated the Maynian army in what became known as the Battle of Belaham.

After the battle, Jacen Gevorian II declared that Belaham would remain the capitol of the Gevorian empire, though he did not live in the palace that had been built for him. Instead, he lived in the nearby city of Calahari.
