Iustitia City, officially, the City of Iustitia, is the oldest major settlement and largest metropolis in Libertas Omnium Maximus, home to 2.8 million residents. It is also one of the nation's keystone cultural and commercial centers and is the capital city of Iustitia Province. The city was formerly the seat of government for the Iustitian Republic, a merchant republic which existed from 1802 to 1837. The city has many iconic sites scattered throughout, including the Harbor of Iustitia, one of the largest commercial harbors in the world, and the Oliver Milton—Iustitia City International Airport (ODM), serving nearly 30,000 travelers each year. Iustitia City is a popular tourist destination, home to the Cathedral of Saint Andrew in the city's historic downtown (consecrated in 1560) and a number of surviving structures from the city's time as a colony, including Fort Charles, the Governor's Manor (now both museums), and Blackstone Square. In addition to tourist sites and a vibrant night life, the Iustitia City Stock Exchange, a major world securities market, is housed in the Arsenal Plaza financial district. Also based out of Iustitia City are a number of shipping conglomerates, such as MNSC and ODL.
History
