Darwinschtad (/'dɑːwɪnʃtæd, Te Rova Lainer: Te Turanga Takamarua [tɛ tʉː'ɾɑŋɑ tɑkɑ'mɑɾʉɑ]) is the capital and largest city of South Neviersia. As of 2024, it has an urban population of 5,479,303, making it the fifth-largest city in Veropa. It is located in the Greater Darwin region, the area governed by the Greater Darwin Council, which encompasses Darwinschtad Council, and the administrative counties of Bolton, Epping, Kakapo and the Otāhei Peninsula, and which has a total population of 6,102,869 as of 2024.

Etymology

The name Darwinschtad did not appear until the 1930s. Prior to that, there existed two cities in the area: Darwin Town, named after Charles Darwin, much like its Australian counterpart), and the larger of the two, Port Macarthur, named after David Macarthur, a British pioneer in the area). As the two cities expanded, they were amalgamated into one political entity. The new name chosen was "Darwinschtad", Lainerovan étendard for "Darwin City". Despite Port Macarthur's prominence and larger size, David Macarthur advocated that the new city's name derive from Darwin Town because of its central location. As a compromise, he decreed that the city's Te Rova Lainer name be "Te Turanga Takamarua" (literally "the sheltered port") in honour of Port Macarthur in the city's southside.
