896. The 59 Nation Army
59 Cruisers travelled across the great plains of Brandar. The distant mountains of the Maw of the World gradually disappeared into the atmosphere. Similarly, the one-hundred-ter walls that surrounded the Nex galopolis ca into view.
Massive structures were seen as a civilization’s way of showcasing their might. It was why palaces were usually built over hundreds of ters tall with a compound stretching over several kiloters. But for such grand architecture to be limited to re walls deeply disappointed the rulers and their aides.
First ti visitors were expected to be marveled imdiately at the first glimpse of the Nex galopolis. Instead, they were greeted by a monotonous pattern of black and off yellow that stretched on for thousands of kiloters.
Still, they would be lying if they said that it was not impressive.
The outer wall of the Nex galopolis began from the City of Strings which was well within Emvita’s borders. From there it ran north, passing through the City of Clubs, the City of Spades, the City of Hearts and finally, the City of Diamonds.
Put together and the Nex galopolis was easily one of the largest civilizations in Elysia. Few saw the cities as separate entities, but more like different districts within a city which was further segnted into sectors. If one were to put the entirety of the Nex galopolis into the Region of Emvita, then it would take up more than 40% of its entire landmass.
Paradise was the single largest walled city in the world. But if one were to rank the sizes of civilization based on territory, then it would be an argunt between the Nex galopolis, Anids, Insectids, Demons, Elves, Aquatids or the Beastkin. However, in terms of developed urban complexes like that of the Nex galopolis – then there were far few in between.
Yanarin took a map of the world, cut it up, drew on it with colored quills and placed it before Princess Mary.
