'''Cartaganca''' ([[Rodavese]]: Cartaganca) is a city on the coast of southeastern [[Produzland]]. It is the capital and largest city of the state of the [[Rodaves]], as well as the second most populous municipality of Produzland. With a population of 1.6 million within city limits, its urban area extends to numerous neighbouring municipalities within the [[Province of Cartaganca]] and is home to around 3.2 million people.

Cartaganca was found in the year 432 AD as a port city in the Kingdom of Lurrak not long after Orthurian withdrawl from the area as Cartegantza. Cartaganca was the capital of the Kingdom of Velarre once the capital was moved from Lurrak (San Aurelio). In 1238 the king of Aenicioa, Ramiro V conquered the city and divided the land among the nobles who helped him conquer it, the majority of the Velarre land given to the Dukes of Sundrescia. He also created a new law for the city, the Furs of Cartaganca, which were extended to the rest of the Duchy of San Aurelio. After the partition of the Kingdom of Velarre, Cartaganca was ceeded from the Duchy of Sundrescia to the newly established Principality of Cabeca by Produese King Vincent VI and made its capital. It remained the Cabecan capital after Cabeca was given independence in 1925, Cartaganca however again became the capital of Cabeca when the republic was annexed into the Federal Republic of Produzland, and has remained its state capital since.
Founded as an Orthurian city, in the Middle Ages Cartaganca became the capital of the [[Republic of the Rodaves]]. Cartanganca continued to be an important city in the the Rodaves as a major trading city of southern Orthuria as an economic and administrative centre of the republic, and even after merging with the Kingdom of Produzland it remained the capital of the Kingdom of the Rodaves as a component realm within the Kingdom of Produzland. Cartaganca has a rich cultural heritage and is today an important cultural centre and a major tourist destination.


The city is situated on the southeast banks of the Bay of Ascoy, on the coast of Cabeca, fronting the Gulf of Cartaganca on the Bay of Ascoy. Its historic centre is one of the largest in Produzland, with approximately 420 acres; this heritage of ancient monuments, views and cultural attractions makes Cartaganca one of the country's most popular tourist destinations.
