Jakálla, the "City Half as Old as the World", is located on the south coast of Tsolyánu at the mouth of the Missúma River. It is bisected by the Eqúnoyel River which flows from the east. The city is a thriving metropolis and port with a population of around 600,000 souls. It has a well deserved reputation for decadence and indolence.

The annual rainfall averages 380 cm.
