Newdam
Newdam is the largest and most prosperous port city in Zailleon, spanning across three large islands on the eastern coast of the continent, each island connected by a series of bridges. The islands are held in a triangular formation, with two of the islands facing the Great Sea while the third rests between them and the mainland of the continent, and as such, the city is divided into three sections: Northern Newdam, Southern Newdam, and Inner Newdam.
The island of Inner Newdam houses the various residential districts of the city, and is where most of the city’s population lives. The nobles and the wealthiest of businessmen reside in large and beautifully-designed mansions on the western-most coast of Inner Newdam, closest to the mainland. Surrounding the wealthier neighborhoods are the living areas of the middle-class; those moderately successful business-owners and commoners who have made a decent living for themselves and their families. This area is also taken up by a number of various shops and stores, as well as schools and academies for children and teenagers to attend. The residential areas of the middle-class take up a majority of Inner Newdam, and as a result of this, the slums and ghettos of the less-fortunate are pushed to the northern and southwestern coasts of the island, to keep them out of sight of the main city, so as not to spoil the image of Newdam to those coming over across the Great Sea by ship.
The island of Northern Newdam contains the sprawling industrial districts of the city, and is where half of its work force goes to, being dedicated to manual labor, construction, and material production. The island is covered by an expanse of large buildings, including factories, refineries, smithies, and construction yards. Its eastern coast is taken up by a sprawling harbor, which is almost constantly filled with activity as cargo ships embarking and coming into port, delivering supplies to the city and its work force. The island is always alive with the din of unending construction from the various production lines in the factories and construction yards.
The island of Southern Newdam, by contrast, holds the various business districts of the city, and is where the other half of the work force goes. Here, tall buildings and skyscrapers can be seen, filled with offices where all of the clerical work of the city is done. The larger malls and shopping districts of the island can be found here. A great deal of the city’s revenue is generated on this island, both in part to the businesses residing here, and due to the second large harbor, where people come and go from transport ships and cruise liners crossing the Great Sea. Numerous recreational centers including sports arenas, clubs, and casinos are located here, for the benefit of the natives, immigrants, and tourists. This island is also the home of the local Stamarian military base, which has its own personal docks, positioning it between the main harbor on the southern island and the one on Northern Newdam.
