Cities of Megalopolis

Megalopolis is the combination of seven cities into one overlapping Mega-Municipality.  The cities banded together to provide more comprehensive services.  Megalopolis has combined services for Electric, Water, and Gas services; Fire Departments; Hospital and Ambulance; and Cape Clean-up services.

The combination also created the largest Municipality with the largest Cape population.  The situation warranted their own divisional offices of CHESS with the two squadrons of Knights which are attached to it.  Skeptics  believe the reason for the creation of Megalopolis was to ensure a greater CHESS presence.


The seven cities of Megalopolis are:

Center City: It is the seat of the Megalopolis Government offices. The Financial District is located here as well as the HQs of many major corporations (i.e. Emerson Electronics, Manning Enterprises, Vanguard Incorporated, and Yamashito Electronics). It is a city of tall gleaming buildings, condos and advanced technology.

Our Fair City: Major Retail Centers and High Tech Industry is the backbone of this city.
