Mambiza itself is a metropolitan province of Garambura. The city sits on the expansive Gonda Delta and its coastal location makes it a popular destination for global trade. The city was founded as a trading outpost in 1656 by [[Gaullica|Gaullican]] merchants, who named the city ''Sainte-Germaine'' after the Sotirian venerated figure. It served as a stopover for trade between [[Euclea]] and southern [[Coius]], namely [[Xiaodong]] and [[Senria]], and so the city's wealth grew under the Gaullicans. It was designated as the capital of [[Baséland]] when it fell under full Gaullican sovereignty in 1813, and was designated a city in 1814.

The East Line (Brumenese: Ostlinie, Lush: Keleti Vonal), commonly referred to as the Dinsmark - Alexandropolis Corridor, is a high-speed rail (HSR) line in East Belisaria that is part of the continent's larger interconnected HSR network. It is served by the Comet, a HSR service owned by the Continental Comet Consortium (C3), a consortium established by various railway corporations from Brumen and Drevstran. The East Line begins its service at Südbahnhof in Dinsmark the capital city of Brumen, which also serves as its terminus & depot. It terminates in the city of Alexandropolis, the capital of Mesogeia. There are two types of services: the slower Astro line which stops at all stations along the corridor, and the faster Sage line which only stops at certain stations. The Astro line is serviced by Blitz 2 NG trainsets, with a service speed of 220km/h it is the slowest of all Comet service lines. Sage lines are serviced by Blitz 4 trainsets, with a service speed of 380km/h making it the fastest HSR service provided by the Comet. Talks of a HSR network between the two neighboring countries began since 1991 when both governments signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) which laid the groundwork for a fully integrated HSR network between Brumen and Drevstran. The Dinsmark - Angrast Corridor, now considered as Phase 1 of the project, commenced operation in 11 May 1994. Since then it has expanded its coverage to include Beredino in 2005 and Alexandropolis in 2006.
