Rackham Range

The Rackham Range is a major mountain range in Zwangzug, running north-south through the west side of the country.

The largest city in the area is Outrive, located in Rolea District, and endpoint of the demanding Volkron-Outrive cycling race. Rolea is Zwangzug's largest electoral district in size, in large part due to the low population density of the mountains (the districts were designed to be roughly equal in population, though this tends to vary). Because of the high elevations, the effect of the stark waste line is readily apparent, although like much of the nation it involves an excruciatingly contrived etymology.
