History
The City was founded by the English in 1822 to be the seat of government for the Province of Slokais Islands. A grid was laid out in 30 streets running East to West from the Parliament Building. By 1840 it had swelled to over 85,000 people and became one of the hubs for Slokais. It grew even more once it became the capital of the new Federation of Slokais Islands. So in 1972 the city and the surrounding area became a Special Metro Region. The city has seen growth in recent decades as the Metro Transit network grew. And by 2020 New Liverpool had around 1 in every 4 Slokaisans living in and around the metro area.

The City has 2 airports John Santos International Airport and East Bank International Airport. The metro is also served by the New Liverpool Rapid Transit Authority as well as Slokasian Rail.
