Template:Gerenian city Klämen is the capital of Mäeklen. It is the largest city in Clements and the second largest in the country, behind Port Isherwood.
History
The first Gerenian settlement in the area was created on the north side of the Nevaya River in 2012, and it was called Noltsak. Eventually a new city was built upon the ruins of Andesburgh, and it was named "Clementsgrad", after the Clements family, one of the most powerful clans in Gerenia during that time. Clementsgrad was chosen as capital of Gerenia over Port Isherwood, which generated a rivalry between both cities.
In 2013, the city changed its name twice: firstly in April, from Clementsgrad to "Clementsskad"[1] (which in Gerenian language means "Clements' City"), and again in September to the current. Along with the second name change, a portion of the city was ceded in order to form the Gerenian Capital Territory, and Klämen was demoted to the rank of city. However, Klämen became the capital city of Mäeklen, a title previously held by Port Isherwood.
The city's mayor since its very foundation is Zelmar Líniŷ, of the Independent Party.
