Ranekouh

Ranekouh takes its name from the Ranekouh district in the hills of eastern Gilan, between the Caspian shore and the Alborz range, with its seat at the nearby port of Langarud. In the fourteenth century this countryside formed part of Bia-pish, the eastern Gilani polity ruled from Lahijan by local Alid sayyids and later by the Kar-Kiya dynasty.
