Megion

Megion (Finn. Mekkio) is a Uralican city located in Yugra, on the Ob' River, and on Highway UH-1 between Nizhnevartovsk and Langepas.

Its economy once relied heavily on oil extraction, and it still has a purpose of refining imported oil, however there is a more diverse economy nowadays, with metallurgy and mining, food production, manufacturing of several types, food production, and hi-tech research and development. Retail is also fairly important, although since Surgut and Nizhnevartovsk aren't particularly far away, it isn't as important as those two.

Culture
The ethnic demographic of Megion shows that the vast majority of the people in the city are ethnic Russians, however there is not a single monoglot in the city, with the whole population speaking Russian, Finnish, and English. Since the area is in the traditional territory of the Khants, Khanty is also spoken.

Mostly an industrial city by nature, Megion is found lacking in the tourism department, although like most Uralican cities, it does have "stuff to do" for its own residents, like movie theatres, sport facilities, drama theatres, and concert halls. However, there is one tourist trap in the city - "Stella," which is a small radio observatory located in Megion on the bank of the Ob.
