East Hills (Narasha 'Oshenna: Eesheckt, IPA: [ˈiːʃɛkˠt̪]) is a rural Lovian town in the northern region of the State of Oceana. Administratively, it belongs to the town of Hurbanova. It is built near the Jamal Hustróva Quarry and most of the town's landmarks are directly related to its past as a mining hub. East Hills is the home of the Lovian Quarry Museum and also houses the East Hills Sports Facilities. The state office of Walden, a progressive environmentalist party, as well as Walden Elementary, a nature-oriented elementary school, are based here. The Emerald Railway to Hurbanova used to stop in East Hills.
The Highland Society, a semi-governmental initiative between Sylvania and Oceana, aims to engage East Hills and nearby Clave Rock in a close bond and to stimulate tourism in the area.
The Oceana nationalist movement is most powerful here as there is a great diversity here of Europeans, like ethnic Slovaks, Dutch, and French who all want a free Oceana.
Even though East Hills is a town and not a hamlet, the official nickname is "The Quarry Hamlet".

Geography 
Edit
East Hills is located within the geographic Central Hill Land region (Narasha 'Oshenna: Thie Kopetshes) of Peace Island. Very agricultural and rural in general, the direct surroundings of East Hills tend to be rockier and less suitable for crops. A great portion of the surrounding surface is not considered to be arable land.
East Hills' direct environment, however, is found extremely suited for quarrying. Open-pit mines, like the notable Jamal Hustróva Quarry in East Hills, are generally used for extracting building materials, such as dimension stone, construction aggregate, riprap, sand, and gravel. An island being so suitable for quarrying is rather rare, and does not occur on the nearby Hawaiian islands.

Seal and flag Edit
- See also: seal for more information about the usage of seals in Lovia.
The town's flag and seal, both designed by Governor Andy McCandless, bear the map symbols for quarries and mines (hammer and pick). The seal bears the town's motto Labore Omnia Florent (English: By work everything flourishes). The predominant colors are the crimson red also seen on Hurbanova's flag and seal and light green, considered East Hills' color, as a reference to the surrounding landscape.
