Famas City - city founded in 1875 by Major Samon and his trusted confidantes and built on the ancient ruins of Ethereum. It is the largest state in the alliance, with more than three million inhabitants in 1925. Its primary resource is a mysterious mineral that can endow both living beings and objects with extraordinary abilities.
History[]
The ancient city was named after the mysterious mineral - ethereum. In the sixteenth century, it ceased to exist, some speculate it was due to wars, and other theories indicate a natural cataclysm. Before the downfall of the city Ethereum, many large lakes existed, that in modern Famas, have become dangerous swamps of Famas. At its discovery, only those swamps and a few villages survived in the remote land. Samon rallied artists and architectures giving them access to the antique books that he had found. The unique collection of books that documented ancient Ethereum was used to recreate the modern territory. Samon built his Heavenly Hill in the place of the former royal palace. Modern Famas emerged due to the resumption of ethereum production and grew enormously in a short time. Creatures of various professions and fortunes move to the bustling city, starting new enterprises and contributing to the growth of its districts. Famas is the first city where the energy industry bases itself almost entirely on the energy of ethereum. However, although Famas is a city of incredible opportunities, many citizens remain poor due to excess labor.
Architecture[]
The main architectural feature of Famas is the existence of Hills – exquisite buildings that house in the form of vertical parallelepipeds. The tiers with homes of the wealthiest Famasians are situated inside those parallelepipeds. Large enough to house skyscrapers upon skyscrapers, they are gilded and well lit as a reminder of the ancient golden cube of Ethereum.
Geography[]
The wide river Niprod flows on the northern border of the city. Local swamps of Famas are known for their unpleasant vapors, which intensified when building began, and enterprises dumped waste into them. In the 1920s, severe problems developed as the city's industrial growth covered the land in thick smog. The central part of the city, shrouded in this smog, is called Middle City. There is also a Low, or Underground Famas - a system of dungeons and passages beneath the city. Some of the dungeons and tunnels have survived since ancient Ethereum - and remain insufficiently studied, while others contain nightclubs and various institutions, some of which are illegal.
Culture[]
The city hosts the annual Eggster Festival.
