Turinsk

Turinsk (Finn. Turala) is a Uralican city located in eastern Southeast Uralica, about halfway between Tavda and Irbit along Highway UH-25. It is the hub city of a larger area that contains several smaller towns and villages along the Tura River (after which it is named), meaning that the retail sector of the city is large by necessity. There are many other sectors to this city's economy, though. The most prominent industrial sector pertains to forestry products, primarily pulp-and-paper but also some domestic forestry. Agriculture, metallurgy, hi-tech, food production, and the production of road-building materials and equipment also have decent presence within the city.

Culture
The original inhabitants of the area were Mansi, although historical references start with the Khanate of Sibir, which was eventually toppled in the late 16th century. What would eventually become Turinsk was grounded on the location of an earlier settlement, Yepanchin-yurt, which was destroyed by the Cossack leader Yermak Timofeyevich in 1581. "Turinsk" was first mentioned in 1600 as being an "ostrog," or military fort, while the Russian Empire was starting to expand into Siberia.

Many participants in the 1825 Decembrist Revolt (a push for reforms mingled with a refusal to accept Nicholas I as czar) including the eventual leader, Yevgeny Obolensky, are associated with Turinsk due to the fact that the city had become a settlement point for exiles in the eighteenth century. These people are immortalised in the Museum of Decembrists.

Other cultural tourist spots include the St. Nicholas Convent, which only started being reused for its original purpose again in early 2010 after a refurbishment sponsored by the Uralican Orthodox Church, the Church of the Merciful Saviour, the Great Wars Memorial, and the Ethnofuturist Art Gallery.
