EN: Fort
The original 'Walled City'. Think Intramuros. It's a fort built to keep enemies out, usually with cannons, high walls, and a great view of the sea for spotting incoming pirates or colonizers. In modern terms, your bedroom when you don't want to do chores is your personal **kota**.
From Malay 'kota' (fort, city), which in turn is from Sanskrit 'koṭa' (fort, stronghold).
Primarily used in historical contexts. 'Kuta' is a more common variant.
