Savage City (officially the Principality of Savage City) is a Mayor city founded by Weier, located at T46 on the MRT Taiga Line. It is located north of Vegeta, and south of Charlemagne and Willow. Savage City was founded on November 26, 2018, and attained Mayor on April 13, 2020.

Districts

Savage City is an organizational mess, and buildings go wherever Weier thinks there’s enough space for them to exist.

Arrondissement 1: Citadel

The Citadel district includes Citadel Island as well as a portion of the coast on Savagia Island and the mainland. It’s known for its most famous landmark, Quadrilateral Square, which has Savage City Central Station as well as the Savage City Cathedral. It also houses the Royal Palace and the Palace of Justice of Savage City on Citadel Island.

Arrondissement 2: Lumensburg

Lumensburg is best known for its variety of shopping choices as well as high housing prices. Dubbed the “most expensive street in Savage City”, Bahnhofstrasse in Lumensburg is the premier shopping street in Savage City.

Arrondissement 3: Umm

The Umm district has one of the 3 great cathedrals of Savage City, as well as many pedestrian shopping streets.

Arrondissement 4: Rouge

Rouge has the tallest skyline in Savage City, with it acting as one of the central business districts. Savage International Business Centre is located in the Rouge district, with many companies headquartering themselves there.

Arrondissement 5: Étoile

The Étoile district includes land between Savage City Central Station and South Taiga Station. It has one of the largest parks in Savage City, as well as connects to the A892.

Arrondissement 6: Prémontagne

On the south shore of the canal lies the Prémontagne district, which is home to the Amusement Park, which has roller coasters and a Ferris wheel where you can see most of southern Savage City if your render distance is high enough.

History

Prehistory

The earliest evidence of human occupation in what is now Savage City were dated back to 1.8 million years ago. It was determined that early humans in Gamma were hunter-gatherers, living with no permanent settlement. The region has many decorated caves from the upper Palaeolithic era, including the most famous and best preserved one near the Hirondelle mountains.

Antiquity (3rd Century - 5th Century)

The earliest founding documents for Savagia, as it was called, date back to the year 243 AD. It had a population of roughly 50 000 at the time, probably due to its port being on an important river. It neighboured the cities of Lumensburg and Umm, both on what is now Savagia Island, as well as Willow, Charlemagne, Sansberg, and Yellowspork to the north. Lanatam and Ludkrona were also located to the east beyond Lumensburg and Umm. Savage City also had access to the MRT system, the minecart transportation system who’s appearance couldn’t be explained by archaeologists. The area couldn’t be described as peaceful, with wars regularly happening. Savage City, however, managed to shield itself by building a large system of defence around the city. To this day the medieval defence is a sort of attraction for curious tourists.

Middle Ages

Savage City is largely credited for the invention of the Trebuchet, to which it wielded mercilessly, making it a policy to launch 1 burning stone covered in oil out the city walls and into the neighbouring city of Sansberg that had no way of retaliating, due to the technology being a closely guarded secret. Eventually, Sansberg soldiers managed to tunnel beneath the deep 15 metre foundation of the Savage City wall, and set fire to all of Savage City, in the Burning of Savage City, which occurred in the year 500. The Sansberg troops attempted to steal the Trebuchet diagrams, but they were burned by the royal family when they escaped the castle and into their residence in Lumensburg, which they had good relations with at the time. The citizens of Savage City proceeded to stampede over Sansberg, which had a much smaller population, and invaded it. This became known as the Sacking of Sansberg, with the soldiers from Sansberg who came in through the tunnel being trapped in flames, leaving no one to defend Sansberg.

In 1066, the prince of Savage City went missing, leaving the city in chaos with no one to preside over trials. Seeing this, the neighbouring Lumensburg assumed temporary control of Savage City to “stabilize the situation”. Since the prince never returned, and Lumensburg was doing a pretty good job managing the city, Savage City was formally incorporated into the newly created Principality of Savagia, which was made by merging Savage City and Lumensburg.

Early modern era

A delegation from Lanatam came over to Savagia to announce the creation of their town to mark the beginning of the early modern era for Savage City. This saw cultural development in art and architecture across the region. When a prince of Savage City went to visit Lanatam in 1589 and saw their newly built cathedral, he decided to order his people to make one even grander. The Savage City Cathedral thus started construction the moment the prince returned from his trip. Construction finished in 1642, making it the second largest cathedral in the land. The royal palace was also built during this time.

Location

Savage City is located in northwest Epsilon (Gamma maybe?)


Public Transport

The Société de Transport Métropolitain (STM) operates all public transport in the city, most notably the metro system.

CTransit

CTransit operates the Elevated rail from Charlemagne into Savage City. There is currently 1 line in operation, Line 1 from Charlemagne / Willow. Line 2 is currently being built and will be partially operated by SC authorities. Line 1 stops at Border Station and Old Town Station.

Metro

The Savage City Metropolitan Railway, or simply Savage City Metro, is a mass rapid transit system within the Savage City metropolitan area. Known for its unique architecture and station design that reflects the district above it, it has grown into something that most Savagians cannot live without. It is completely underground with 35 stations across 6 lines as well as additional ones being planned. Lines are identified on maps by number and colour, with the direction of travel indicated by the terminus.

Roads
