Geography

The climate has features of both the dry Central Anatolian plain and the Black Sea coast; winters are cold, summers are hot and dry, with most rainfall in spring. The district is partially mountainous and wooded. Being so close to the city of Çorum the district has little economic strength of its own; people live on growing grains, chickpeas and other crops.

The town of Laçin provides the district with high schools, a hospital and other basic amenities.

gollark: They can be as long as you want, we have "horizontal scroll" technology.

gollark: Just increase it every time you run out.

gollark: You start with a lot of spaces/tabs/vertical tabs/ZWSes, then remove one when you enter a block you'd normally indent, and readd it when you leave said block.
