Your nation's capital city

Postby YaoiFangirlLand » Mon Mar 21, 2011 9:21 pm

Hello fellow world leaders! The Empire of YaoiFangirlLand (YFL) would like to create a documentary on capital cities. You may also include capital cities of colonies. Please include many pictures and plenty of information about it.

Mirski (YFL)
Mirski was founded in the late 1200's, and is the largest city in YFL with a population of over 100 million. There is hardly any crime and the main languages spoken here are Fujoshi and English; the latter is used much more frequently except in the old town. It is a very cultural and friendly city known for it's fast paced lifestyle of shopaholics, entertainment, and sweet teeth. Your life savings and cavity fillings won't last long here.

This is Dreikola Plaza, where the city hall is as well as many tourist attractions and shopping malls.

http://www.yankodesign.com/images/desig ... ilnius.jpg
This is the Museum of Technology, which features 5 underground floors of technological advances through the ages. A fun family attraction for people of all ages.

http://www.amdoc.org/pressmaterials/upt ... angtze.jpg
Yui Lili'piet, the entertainment district, affectionately called Lili for short. It is home to hundreds of clubs, bars, malls, and shopping centers. You can come here every night for years and still not see it all.

http://www.fanline08.at/en/wp-content/u ... strase.jpg
Mashtaimav Street. Part of the Mirski college district. Home to many...unique stores.

http://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/ ... sse-at.jpg

The Andei'o Nai Theater street. Like the Broadway of Mirski.

http://www.zeninfocus.com/wp-content/up ... -tower.jpg
The Yumavoff Hotel and Tunivas hotels. Very famous and elegant.


Malaty (Tyelona-lye, TYL)

Malaty is the capital city of Tyelona-lye, one of YFL's two colonies. It is a rapidly growing cosmopolitan area, however the YFL government is making sure they don't ever surpass Mirski. Malaty is a more quiet city than Mirski, but that is mainly because of the personality of the people. It's much more laid back, but there is more crime than in Mirski. Malaty is a very popular tourist attraction, nevertheless. The languages spoken in Malaty are Tyenese, English, and occasionally Fujoshi. The population is about 50 million.

http://seatvacations.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/shanghai_at_night.jpg
The main highway, where the city starts and the city ends, known as Vashtiina road. Many Tyenese and Fujoshi movies reference this spot. No matter how you get in the city, you're bound to find this road.

http://www.zastavki.net/pictures/1024x7 ... 05059_.jpg
Just a view of downtown Malaty. Some fun tourist spots are Denii'kla Land, a family-oriented theme park, Gregstop avenue, which is a relaxing but fun resort area, and the Gunti, the largest park in any YFL controlled areas.

http://www.cedcc.psu.edu/khanjan/europe ... 20rome.jpg

The old town plaza, or Tunyinh-lo. A popular spot for teenagers.

http://www.efficient.ws/wp-content/uplo ... 88x388.jpg

The Gellatal Hotel, the finest in Malaty. It even has its own beach inside.


Keika (Keiruit, KRT)

Keika is a small city of only 500,000 on the Northern coast of Keiruit. The languages spoken there are Keimat, Tyenese, and English. It's a quaint, cheap place to stay, but not necessarily too exciting compared to Malaty and Mirski. It is mainly an industrial center. Not much can be said about it, as it's pretty boring.

http://galerija.voratinklis.lt/albums/Naktinis-Vilnius/naktis_vilnius_nuo_gedimino_pilies.jpg

This is just a view of the East Side. There are some attractions, but not too many.

http://www.psfk.com/2009/07/the-art-of- ... y-lab.html

The city is known for many motivational messages projected on the buildings at night.

Oured: It was the East Erusean Capital (Around 1890's) and then when West Erusea merged with East Erusea, it was decided that Oured would be the capital of the nation. This place is where the Government does most of its business. It is on the Fascum Sea.

Spread across the plains in an eponymous valley between two mountain ranges, San Angelo is the capital city of the Front Range Republic. The population is around 800,000 in the city itself and roughly two and a half million in the metro area, making it fairly large for Mount Shavano. The city is the best example of current Front Range architecture, being clean and modern with no pretensions to grandeur. Most streets are lined with red brick sidewalks and lines of aspen or pine trees.

As the seat of the government, San Angelo is the most active nighttime location in the Front Range Republic. Street lights, headlights, and lit skyscrapers can be seen at all hours, leading to the common description of San Angelo as a "glittering" city. The city's most common nickname is "the Angel City".

Our capital and largest city is Olivia, a massive city situated on and between the Kanter and Korn Rivers. It is a major governmental, cultural, and commercial center, serving as both the administrative and financial capital. Below are some images of Olivia:

The Global Enterprise Center, the tallest building in Olivia as well as in the nation.

The W.U. Capitol during winter, situated in an area known as "The Clearing". The primary governmental and administrative area of the city, it gets its name for resembling a forest clearing, in that it comprises large government buildings and open spaces while tall buildings and skyscrapers seem to stop at its perimeter.

There is a huge thread about this already, but I'll play along.

Ko-oren city is the name of the capital of the country of Ko-oren. It was founded as a trading post between two countries and used this trading post as a fort later to attack a third country. After a few wars, the city of Ko-oren grew out to be the most powerful city in the region, and even establishing an own neutral zone around this city. After a few hundred years, this neutral zone expanded to the full island of Fandar (see map). This is how the country was founded.

The city grew out from a relatively small rural town to a trading post with great infrastructure over sea and land, then to a city and cultural melting pot to the huge metropolis of almost 10 million people it is now.

Damascus is the capital of the Umayyad Caliphate. It was the center of the Second Caliphate, which was overthrown by the Third who established the capital in Cairo. When Caliph Hassan Ibn'Rashan re-established the Caliphate in 1892, he captured Damascus and established it as his capital. Since, it has been the Umayyad centre.

Bastioforre

The overall capital of the Galladian Empire, Bastioforre is the home of both the ruling Beauford family and the Galladian House of Nobles. Situated in what was once the dark, snow capped north of the motherland, Bastioforre rarely saw sunlight due to the almost constant cloud cover. However, thanks to the implementation of the artificial atmosphere placed around the Empire, sunlight now streams down upon the streets. Renown for it's dedication to the arts, Bastioforre is home to many of the Empire's most talented artists, musicians, actors and writers. Has a population of 245 million Aelune, making it the second largest city in the Empire. Became the capital in 1608 (56,000 BC by earth standards) after a military coup forced the Beaufords to evacuate Del'rai and head north to this city fortress. A largely changed city, Bastioforre has modernized over the last few decades, representing the advances of the Galladian Empire.

Spread out across 3,900 square kilometers, the capital of Lundenwic is a massive city divided into a heavily urbanized outer city, and the smaller historic inner city. Inner Lundenwic is separated from outer Lundenwic by a 18 meter tall and 10 meter wide wall, and a man made canal with several bridges crossing between the two cities. The wall surrounding inner Lundenwic is over 1,000 years old and has 20 gate houses from which roads lead into an out of the inner city. While the outer city is the economic centre of the city, housing factories, apartments, business headquarters, and financial buildings, the inner city contains many historic government and public buildings, including the first Imperial Palace, the second Imperial Palace, the three royal palaces, the chambers of the Witengemot, and the Imperial Fortress, which includes abandon quarters for up to 30,000 soldiers, and the headquarters to the defunct Imperial Assassination and Subterfuge corps. The total population of Lundenwic is 12.5 million people, 90% of whom live in the outer city.

The administrative municipality of Peros (population of 712,000) serves as both Greater Santiago's largest city and capitol. It was first settled as a trading port by the Spanish during the mid 17th century and has continued to grow ever since. Along with its already immense supply of fish the recent discovery of oil sands near the city has spurred a rush of investment by foreign multinational corporations. This has been a mixed blessing for the city as the recent construction of corporate offices and hotels have forced out the poorer citizens who have lived in those areas for generations.

The gentrification of Peros has caused a rise in tension between the rich and poor. Fences have been erected to protect wealth boroughs while the national army guards the entrances to the unofficial city within a city of Vientos, which serves as the location for Santiago's most important government buildings.
