Ar is at war with its ancient enemy, the island Ubarate of Cos.Its walls, its countless cylinders, its spires and towers, its lights and beacons, the high bridges are lit by lanterns and connect many of the towers the sight is unbelievably exciting and fantastic, particularly as seen from the more lofty bridges on the roofs of the higher cylinders. It has a set of double walls, made of white marble, the first is 300 feet high and the second 20 yards from the first is 400 feet high. Ar is most marvelously viewed when seen at night from tarnback. All gorean cities save one are built by free men. Surrounded by great walls, it's great Gate opens onto the Viktel Aria and there are forty other gates as well. Her politics lack the grandeur of the city itself. The powerful of Ar contributed to a disaster in the delta by not supporting their own army against the invading forces of Cos. Her citizenry burned their gates and tore down their walls to aid the Cosians.
