| '''San Pietro''' ([[Western Imaguan Creole]]: ''Pitastad'') is the second largest city in [[Imagua and the Assimas]], and the capital of the [[Assimas Parish|Assimas]]. Located on the northern shore of [[Avitabile Island]], San Pietro is the second largest city in the country, and the largest city to not be its own county, as it is the county seat of [[Assimas County]]. | | The '''Prime Minister of Surrow''' was the {{wp|head of government}} of [[Surrow]] from when it was granted full {{wp|self-government}} by [[Rythene]] in 1915 until Surrow was granted independence in 1950. By custom, the Prime Minister of Surrow was the leader of the largest party in the [[Parliament of Surrow|Surrowese Parliament]], or otherwise had the most support among the members of Parliament. |

| While the [[Caldia|Caldians]] were the first to set up a settlement on what is now San Pietro, doing so in 1536, the settlement was abandoned for unclear reasons in 1548, although it is speculated by archaeologists that the small population made the settlement vulnerable to attacks by the {{wp|Island Caribs|native Imaguan}} population.

| It was only in 1601 that it was established as a permanent settlement by [[Blostland|Blostlandic]] settlers as the city of '''Peterstad''', it was initially an insignificant settlement under [[Estmere]] captured [[Imagua (island)|Imagua]]. Following the fall of [[Cuanstad]], the Blostlanders kept control over the [[Assimas Islands]], causing the town to grow, as many government officials previously based in Cuanstad moved to Peterstad.

| In 1813, [[Eldmark]] sold the Assimas Islands to [[Etruria]], and the Etrurians immediately set San Pietro up as the capital of their colony. Over the next century and a half, San Pietro was aggressively Etrurianized as the Etrurian government sought to integrate it with its other possessions in the West Arucian. (TBC)
| | ! width=5%| Portrait |
| | | ! width=10%| Name |
| ==Etymology== | | ! Took office |
| The name '''San Pietro''' derives from a {{wp|Italian language|Vespasian}} translation of the {{wp|Swedish language|Blostlandic}} name, '''Peterstad'''. The name, meaning ''Peter's town'', is due to the city established on 29 June, 1601, the feast day of {{wp|Saint Peter}}, by Blostlandic settlers. After Etruria acquired the Assimas in 1813, Peterstad was renamed to San Pietro to Etrurianise the city. However, the Blostlandic name was the basis for San Pietro's name in [[Western Imaguan Creole]], '''Pitastad'''.

| An earlier settlement on the site of San Pietro that was founded by Caldish settlers in 1536 was known as '''Baile Adamhnáin''', with Baile Adamhnáin getting its name from [[Saint Adomnán]].

| The first evidence of human habitation on San Pietro dates back to between 6,250 and 6,750 years {{wp|before present}}. Due to its location on the mouth of the [[Colosimo River]], on relatively flat plains, and on the [[San Pietro Harbour]], archaeologists have found evidence that the site was home to several settlements, including a {{wp|Taino people|Nati}} settlement from around 150 BCE.
| | |- |
| | | |- style="background:#EEEEEE" |
| In the 200s CE, San Pietro became the site of a [[Marai]] settlement: although the Marai settlement was not as large as the Marai settlement in [[Nua Taois]], archaeologists noted that it "greatly expanded the original Nati settlement," with the Marai settlement lasting until around 800 CE, when the decline of the Marai city states, combined with the arrival of the [[Mutu people|Mutu]], led to the city entering a period of decline.

| However, its geographical position made the site of San Pietro a regional centre, with evidence that it was home to chieftains ruling over the area. By the early sixteenth century, the area of San Pietro was home to the capital of the [[TBD Confederacy]], which comprised most of the [[Assimas Islands]]. However, the arrival of Euclean explorers and the spread of disease led to the TBD Confederacy imploding.

| The first Eucleans to settle the site of present-day San Pietro were the Caldish, who established '''Baile Adamhnáin''' in 1536, naming the settlement after [[Saint Adomnán]]. While initially, the relationship between the natives and the settlers were cordial, tensions started to rise between the Caldians and the native population on Avitabile Island. Combined with the small population, the settlement was abandoned in 1548 for unclear reasons, although many archaeologists believe that it was primarily due to the small population, making it impossible for the settlement to defend itself against native peoples, or because of a lack of supplies.

| By the 1580s, the site of settlement was completely abandoned, with a Blostlandic official saying in 1583 that the natives recounted the existence of a Caldish settlement, but the only evidence that it ever existed were some roadworks.

| In 1601, the [[Blostland|Blostlanders]] established '''Peterstad''' on the site of Baile Adamhnáin. Initially, Peterstad was a fishing village, with an official remarking that "besides fishing and subsistence farming, there is not much of an economy as [[Cuanstad]] and [[Vaxholmen]] remain the primary centres" in the region, but with the fall of Cuanstad in 1658, Peterstad began to develop as it became the main seat of Blostlandic rule over the islands.
| | |- style="background:#EEEEEE" |
| | | ! style="background:#00247D; color:white;" rowspan="2"|2 |
| With this, Peterstad began to grow, as Blostlandic authorities focused their attention on developing the [[Assimas Islands]] to protect them from invasions by outside colonial powers, leading to the construction of what would become the [[Castello di Slott]] on the Slott peninsula to protect Peterstad's harbour. At the same time, Peterstad began to grow into a town, as many colonial officials on the Assimas moved there from Cuanstad. This growth would make Peterstad an important urban centre, and by 1700, the city's population was measured to be around 3,000 people.

| | | |rowspan="2"|[[Eddie Hammond]]<br/><small>(1884-1945) |
| During the eighteenth century, Peterstad became a thriving urban centre on the island, with its harbour exporting sugar and nutmeg to the Blostlandic market. However, with the outbreak of the [[Asterian War of Secession]], and [[Eldmark]]'s subsequent declaration of independence, Peterstad would be the scene of the [[Mutiny of Peterstad (1769)|Mutiny of Peterstad]] in 1769, which saw the local garrison stage a mutiny against the Blostlandic colonial government and declare their loyalty to Eldmark.

| After Eldmark obtained its independence in 1771, Peterstad became part of Eldmark. With the abolition of slavery, the Assimas became seen as a liability by the Eldmarkian government, who had incurred substantial amounts of debt to obtain its independence. By 1813, Eldmark would sell the Assimas to the [[United Kingdom of Etruria]] in order to pay off its debts.

| After Etruria purchased the Assimas from Eldmark in 1813, Peterstad was renamed to San Pietro. While it remained the administrative centre of the Assimas, the change in administration led to substantial changes in the character of the city, as the remaining white Eldmarkian population who had not already left in the aftermath of the end of slavery left San Pietro. This, combined with an influx of Etrurian immigrants to San Pietro, both from [[Bonaventura]] and loyalists from [[Gapolania]], but also immigrants from Etruria itself, changed the character of the city.

| | | |- style="background:#EEEEEE" |
| After a fire in 1834 that destroyed most of the old settlement, colonial governor [[Giambattista D'Intino]] decided to rebuild San Pietro as a "little [[Sermoni]]." D'Intino's plan involved replanning the city, with a central square surrounded by a rebuilt [[Saint Peter's Church, San Pietro|San Pietro]], the ''[[Palazzo Governale, San Pietro|Palazzo Governale]]'' which would house the colonial government, and shops to the square's northeast and southwest, and the streets to be "perfect diagonals expanding ever outward until they reach the sea or the hills." This would necessitate demolishing most of the surviving buildings: the few surviving pre-Etrurian buildings are located on the Slott Peninsula next to the Castello di Slott. The new buildings were to be built "in a similar style to Sermoni," as it would help make San Pietro "an Etrurian city."
| | ! style="background:#00247D; color:white;" rowspan="2"|3 |
| | | |rowspan="2"|[[File:Lord_Macdonald.jpg|80px]] |
| By 1850, San Pietro had been completely rebuilt in an Etrurian style in accordance with D'Intino's plan. This was aided by the [[Etrurian Navy|Royal Etrurian Navy]] expanding their naval base in order to protect the San Pietro Harbour, leading to substantial population growth throughout the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century, and to the establishment of factories in the city and sugar refineries. In 1913, San Pietro would be granted city status by the Etrurian government to celebrate its centenary under Etrurian rule.

| However, the [[Great Collapse]] greatly affected San Pietro: although the city recovered much of its pre-Great Collapse output by the outbreak of the [[Great War (Kylaris)|Great War]], and initially was not too affected by the war, Etruria's entry in 1928 would lead to a Gaullican occupation of the city, lasting until 1933 when the [[Grand Alliance]] liberated the city as part of its island hopping campaign.

| After the [[Legionary Reaction]] in 1937, the [[Greater Solarian Republic]] would aggressively Etrurianise the city and the Assimas, with virtually all remaining pre-Etrurian buildings, excluding the Castello di Slott, being demolished to make way for Etrurian buildings. However, the Greater Solarian Republic's control over the city was short-lived because in 1944, after the outbreak of the [[Solarian War]], the Imaguan militia would invade the Assimas and occupy it. While de-jure Etrurian rule continued until 1946, it was de-facto under Imaguan control, with the Imaguan government seeking to annex the Assimas.

| Following the end of the [[Solarian War]] in November 1946, San Pietro was annexed into [[Imagua and the Assimas|Imagua]] following the passage of the [[Constitution of Imagua and the Assimas#First Amendment (January 1947)|First Amendment]] to the [[Constitution of Imagua and the Assimas|Imaguan constitution]], with the [[United Provinces (Kylaris)|United Provinces]] reluctantly approving Imagua's annexation after the [[Sotirian Democratic Party (Imagua)|Sotirian Democrats]] threatened to break their coalition with the [[Democratic Party (Sainte-Chloé)|Democratic Party]]. Thus, for the first time in nearly three hundred years, San Pietro was in the same country as [[Cuanstad]].
| | |- style="background:#EEEEEE" |
| | | ! style="background:#354C9C; color:white;" rowspan="2"|4 |
| However, San Pietro, like the rest of Imagua and the Assimas, would not stay long in the United Provinces due to tensions between the Imaguan and federal governments, and on 23 April, 1948, San Pietro became part of an independent Imagua.

| After their independence, San Pietro became a major economic centre, alongside Cuanstad, as both were manufacturing hubs. However, in the 1950s, tourism started to develop, with hotels being opened to cater to tourists from both the [[Asterias]] and [[Euclea]], with Etrurians being the main Euclean demographic travelling to San Pietro. At that time, {{wp|deindustrialization}} started to take place, as the economy began to transition more to a {{wp|service economy}}.

| However, the main beneficiary of the economic shift was not San Pietro, but rather, Cuanstad, as the {{wp|financial sector}} blossomed there. This led to significant job losses in San Pietro, which helped heighten anxieties among many of the Etrurian population, as they believed that they were neglected by the central government. In addition, the influx of people from the island of [[Imagua (island)|Imagua]] attending the [[Università di San Pietro]] helped increase anxieties among the local population.

| In the 1960s, the [[Assimas Independence Movement]] started to become a major force in island politics, forcing the government under [[Prime Minister of Imagua and the Assimas|Prime Minister]] [[Efrem Lacovara]] to grant concessions to the Assimans, such as expanding educational rights, establishing the {{wp|English language|Estmerish language}} [[University of Cuanstad]], and by 1969, granting autonomy to the Assimas Islands. Thus, by the early 1970s, the Assimas Independence Movement faltered.

| Despite this, San Pietro saw many jobs being lost, which helped fuel a {{wp|brain drain}}, with younger people generally moving to Imagua or to other countries to find work. However, the economic crisis in the late 1970s and early 1980s made things more difficult for San Pietro.

| ===Contemporary era=== | |
| In the early 1980s, San Pietro, while it was attracting migrants from the countryside of the [[Assimas Islands]], was continuing its decline. However, in the late 1980s and early 1990s, it became a centre for the {{wp|information technology sector}}, which combined with the {{wp|hospitality industry}}, helped San Pietro begin to recover its status compared to [[Cuanstad]].
| |
| | |
| (TBC) | |
| | |
| By the early 2000s, San Pietro began to attract immigrants for the first time since the 1960s, as job prospects there were improving rapidly, due to the information technology sector. However, anti-immigrant sentiment started to grow, which accelerated with the outbreak of the [[Mariranan Civil War]] in 2013. As many people from Marirana were seeking refuge, many settled in San Pietro, on account of it being an Vespasian-speaking city, as opposed to Cuanstad.
| |
| | |
| ==Geography==
| |
| San Pietro is located on the northern shore of [[Avitabile Island]], and is located in a relatively large plain shaped by the [[Colosimo River]] which originates on the slopes of [[Mount Pioniere]], the highest point on the [[Assimas Islands]]. Thus, most of the settlement is flat, with only the edges of the mountains taking form near the city limits, with the highest point being a slope of Mount Pionere which at the point where it crosses the city limits reaches an elevation of 456 meters above sea levels.
| |
| | |
| Climatically, like the rest of the [[Assimas Islands]], San Pietro experiences a {{wp|tropical monsoon climate}}, due to its location near the {{wp|equator}}, with the yearly average highs being 32 °C (89.6 °F), and the yearly average lows being 20.5 °C (68.9 °F). The wet season is generally from May to October, while the dry season typically lasts from November to April, although the months of April and November receive more rain than any other month in the dry season.
| |
| | |
| The highest recorded temperature was recorded on 1 August, 1939, when it was measured at 37.5 °C (99.5 °F), while the lowest recorded temperature in San Pietro was measured at 14 °C (57.2 °F) on 19 February, 1911.
| |
| | |
| ==Government== | |
| [[File:Casa_Alcaldia_-_Carolina_Puerto_Rico.jpg|250px|thumb|right|''[[Palazzo Governale, San Pietro|Palazzo Governale]]'', 2017]] | |
| San Pietro has an eighteen member '''town council''' ({{wp|Italian language|Vespasian}}: ''Consiglio comunale'') and is headed by a '''mayor''' ({{wp|Italian language|Vespasian}}: ''sindaco''). They are all elected by residents of San Pietro every four years. Like other town councils, San Pietro is a {{wp|non-partisan}} government, with all members and candidates being {{wp|independent politicians}}. The current mayor of San Pietro is [[Narseo Quagliata]], who was first elected in 2008, defeating [[Oscar Mugavero]], and was re-elected in 2012, 2016, and 2020.
| |
| | |
| While it is commonly referred to as a '''city''' ({{wp|Italian language|Vespasian}}: ''città''), having been granted it by [[Etruria|Etrurian]] authorities in 1913 to celebrate the 100th anniversary of its purchase from [[Eldmark]], since the end of the [[Solarian War]] in 1946, it has been legally classified as a '''town''' ({{wp|Italian language|Vespasian}}: ''cittadina''), as it never had been given {{wp|borough}} status like [[Cuanstad]] had been. Despite proposals made in 1977, and in 2003, San Pietro has not been granted city status as doing so would require a constitutional amendment, as the ''[[Cities Act of 1961]]'' declared that only city-parishes (i.e. [[Cuanstad]]) can be cities.
| |
| | |
| On the parish level, San Pietro has thirty-seats of the sixty member parish council, which like other parishes, is non-partisan, with all members and candidates officially being independent politicians.
| |
| | |
| On the national level, San Pietro is represented with ten members in the [[Lesser House of Imagua and the Assimas|Lesser House]] of [[Parliament of Imagua and the Assimas|Parliament]], due to it's status as the second largest settlement in [[Imagua and the Assimas]].
| |
| | |
| ==Population== | |
| As of the 2011 census, San Pietro has a population of 191,096 people, while its metropolitan area comprises 230,758 people, comprising 76.5% of the population of the [[Assimas Parish]], and 17.6% of the national population.
| |
| | |
| Ethnically, 113,977 people, or 59.6% of the city's population are [[Eucleo-Imaguans]], with 99,370 people, or 52% of the population being [[Etrurian-Imaguans]], with the remaining Euclean population comprised of [[Estmerish-Imaguans]] and more recent immigrants from [[Euclea]]. After this, 71,363 people, or 37.3% of the population, are [[Bahio-Imaguans]].
| |
| | |
| Only three percent of the population, or 5,733 people are immigrants, mostly from the [[Asterias]] and [[Coius]], with only twenty-three [[Native Imaguan people|Native Imaguans]] residing in the city.
| |
| | |
| Religiously, San Pietro is heavily dominated by the [[Solarian Catholic Church]], with 78% of the population, or 149,140 people adhering to the Solarian faith. After the Solarian Catholic church, the next largest sects are {{wp|Lutheranism|Bahrism}}, with 22,164 people, or 11.5% following it, and then 7,388 people, or 3% of the city's population, who follow other {{wp|Christianity|Sotirian}} sects. Only 4% of the population, or 8,710 people are {{wp|irreligious}}, while 3,694 people, or 1.9% follow other religions.
| |
| | |
| Linguistically, San Pietro speaks {{wp|Italian language|Vespasian}}, with 158,616 people, or 83% of the population reporting that they use Vespasian on a regular basis, with 31,524 people, or 16.5% of the population reporting that they use {{wp|English language|Estmerish}} on a regular basis. Only 956 people, or 0.5% of the population, reporting that they do not use either official language on a regular basis.
| |
| | |
| The largest non-official language spoken is [[Western Imaguan Creole]], with around 48% of the city's population, or 91,726 people, reporting it as their native language. The next largest native non-official languages are {{wp|Swedish language|Blostlandic}}.
| |
| | |
| ==Transportation==
| |
| San Pietro is, as the largest city in the [[Assimas Parish]] and on [[Avitabile Island]], a key transport node in the regional transportation network. The city is accessible to the rest of the country by ferries, with daily ferries connecting San Pietro to [[Guardia Island]] and [[Ineweyu Island]], as well as ferries connecting it to [[Nua Taois]], and an hourly ferry to [[Cuanstad]]. As well, all roads on Avitabile Island ultimately converge at San Pietro. It is home to [[San Pietro International Airport]], the second and least busiest international airport in the country.
| |
| | |
| The city's {{wp|public transit}} system is [[Avitabus]], serving not just San Pietro, but the entirety of the island, although most of its routes operate within the city limits of San Pietro.
| |
| | |
| ==Culture==
