Markanda is a major trading city in Markandutana Rajya, the Rajanate of Amaranth. Its current rajah is Manjusha Darbinyan.

It is in the lower part of the Kolyvan Mountains along the Irmak River. It is the eastern terminus of a trail named the Kharskhakayan that goes to Anzhedonev through three major passes in the mountains. From east to west, these are the Marana Pass, the Szhan Agir Pass, and the Kuulakh Pass.

Markanda is one of the oldest cities in Eard, having been founded during the time of the Akkermenian. Hence, scholars and Chroniclers are unsure of its founding.

The pine trees that grow in abundance around Markanda are excellent for making paper. Along the way, the Kagaazsanga, the guild of paper makers in Markanda, developed some of the most advanced techniques of making paper in Eard.
