Chihiro(English pronounciation: Chi-hi-roh / Petrovan: Qhiro) is the capital city of the Kingdom of Petrova. It is the home of the Petrovar Royal Family, the Petravo Family. The city is the third populous in the country(2,100,000), and Metro Chihiro(also known as the Capital Belt) is the most populous in the country(10,000,000). Chihiro is the country's major tourist city as well as one of the commercial hubs of the country (Avenida Vista being the major commercial hub of the country).
The capital city is known as the prominent tourist hub of the country and second in Eastern Europe (behind Moscow. The city is famous for its recent hosting of major high-profile international events in the past year. Chihiro's history is still undisputed to this day, as the great fire of 1804 ruined the major records of the Library of Chihiro, containing the only information about the city's past.(Chihiro wasn't as famous as it is today, therefore Russia contianed vague information on the city.)
History[]
The history of Chihiro is still undisputed to this day. This is due to the Chihiro Fire of 1804 which burned the historical records at the Library of Chihiro. Those records contained the only copy of the origins of the city. In the early 1800's, Chihiro was a tiny town, therefore Russia didn't keep record of the then-town. Some accounts say that the town was founded in the late 1700's by a girl named Qhiralia, a maid of the Winter Palace of St. Petersburg who was banished by Peter the Great. She ended up in a mountainous place and found a house of an elderly couple where she stayed at. She eventually found a man named Greve, whom she married and had 17 children. Her children then grew on to make their own families, and so forth resulting in the town's population to be 400. According to historians, this account is false as the account would mean that more than 40 percent of Chihiro's modern population can be traced back to Qhiralia and Greve.
wikipedia:Peter_I_of_Russia Peter the Great once considered making Chihiro his capital, since the city was conviently situated in the southern leg of Russia, but decided to make wikipedia:St. Petersburg St. Petersburg his city. The town was known for its trade & market, connecting Moscow to cities such as Azovo & Sochi(present-day Brytyavska).
According to modern day Petrovars, the city was "born" when the Petravo Royal Family came into the town and established it as their capital of the newly founded Russian state of Petrova in late 1800's. By turn of the century (1900), Chihiro is home to over 140,000. The city grew immensely during and after both World Wars. This was due to the city being a haven for most Eastern European countries during the wars. The city prospered economically as well from selling Russia ammunition during both wars. However, the Chihiro and the country as a whole refused to sell ammunition or take part in the atomic project during the wikipedia:Cold War Cold War.
Today, Chihiro is a proud symbol of the country. It is recently dubbed the "Entertainment Capital of SimEurope" due to the fact that the city has hosted numerous high-profile events. The most notable is probably the 11th ISC Session that was held in Ordona, Petrova (15 miles east of Chihiro).

The 1 mile entrance is filled with motion sensitive lasers, numerous cameras from different angles, automated guns and a gate that will appear out of nowhere. The palace is also guarded from the air, as high tech radar and a force of no less than 10 jets patrol the palace non-stop.

They, along with their son, HSH Prince Andrew and their daughter HSH Princess Yelena, reside at the Royal Palace of Petrova.
