St. Augustine, alternatively spelled Saint Augustine, is the capital of Saint Augustine, a Maximusian province.
Etymology[edit | edit source]
Saint Augustine, the city's namesake, is the Catholic patron Saint of brewers and printers. The name was formally adopted in 1790 by St. Augustine's founders, primarily Catholic settlers originating from modern day Litudinem.
History[edit | edit source]
St. Augustine was founded as a trading post around 1765, but was formally incorporated as a settlement of the RCI in 1790 following the discovery of major tin and iron deposits in the surrounding hills. The city experienced a major population boom in the mid 1880s and was quickly transformed into a major industrial hub. Since then, the city has experienced some urban decay, particularly in the years following the recession of 1971.
