'''Gonece''' ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|d|ʒ|ɔː|ˈ|n|iː|z}} ''{{wpl|English pronunciation respelling|joh-NEE-ss}}''; {{wpl|Luxembourgish language|Dahemian}}: ''Gëinen'' {{wp|Help:IPA/Luxembourgish|[ˈgəiːnen]}}; {{wpl|German language|Notgerman}}: ''Geinen'' {{wp|Help:IPA/Standard German|[ˈgaɪnɛn̩]}}; {{wpl|French language|Hyacinthean}}: ''Gonéce'' {{wp|Help:IPA/French|[ʒɑ̃nes]}}) is the {{wp|capital city}} and most populous [[Dahemia|municipality]] of [[Dahemia]] with 626,915 inhabitants in 2021, straddling the shores of the river [[Lonane]]. Comprising approximately a quarter of the country's entire population, Gonece is Dahemia's {{wp|primate city}} and the 6th-largest city in the Notgerman-speaking world, after X. Generally considered to lie at the cultural, geographic and economic crossroads of Calesia, it is situated X km (X mi) by road from X, X km (X mi) from X, and X km (X mi) from X.
'''Itabira''' ({{wpl|Portuguese language|Lavish}}: ''Itabira'', <small>Nadauran Lavish pronunciation:</small> {{wp|Help:IPA/Luxembourgish|[itaˈbi.ʁa]}}), officially known as '''Itabira, Distrito Federal''' (abbreviated '''Itabira, D.F.''') and formerly known as '''Santa Conceição de Itabira''' (<small>Nadauran Lavish pronunciation:</small> {{wp|Help:IPA/Luxembourgish|[ˌsanta ˈkɔnseisˈɐ̃w ðɛ ˈitaˈbi.ʁa]}}), is the {{wp|capital city|capital}} and [[Nadauro#Largest cities|largest city]] of [[Nadauro]], as well as the most populous city in [[Elia Australis]]; it is considered to be one of the world's X-speaking centers of culture, finance, econmics, and politics. Generally considered to lie at the cultural, geographic and economic crossroads of Elia Australis, it is situated 1,070 km (665 mi) by road from [[Fort Banister]], X km (X mi) from X, and X km (X mi) from X.


While previously having been settled by the [[Goneitii]] tribe, Gonece proper was founded by the [[Hernician Empire|Hernicians]] in the 1st century BC as ''[[Castrum Goneitiacum Domecanum]]''. During the {{wp|Middle Ages}}, the fledging settlement flourished as a regional trade hub and became an influential {{wp|free imperial city}} and {{wp|citadel}}. Gonece served as the capital of the [[Duchy of Dahemia|Duchy]], and later the [[Kingdom of Dahemia]] in the 18th and 19th centuries, and both its growing importance as a Calesian center of political power and the {{wp|Industrial Revolution}} brought about a profound demographic boom; by 1900, it was the 3rd-most populous Notgerman-speaking city in the world. Much of the historic city center was bombed and heavily damaged during the [[Great War (Teleon)|Great War]].
Itabira largely comprises the territorial extent of the Federal District and it is situated in the [[Valley of Sacpa]] atop the [[Central Nadauran Plateau]] at an elevation of 1,950 meters (6,400 feet), making it the [[Elia Australis|third-highest capital city]] in Elia Australis after X and X. The 2022 population of the {{wp|city proper}} was 8,885,192, whereas the population of the [[Greater Itabira]] {{wp|metropolitan area}} was 18,847,201, which makes it the [[Teleon|fourth-largest metropolitan area]] in the world, the [[Teleon|second-largest]] {{wp|urban agglomeration}} in the Eastern Hemisphere (after X), and the largest {{wp|Portuguese language|Lavish-speaking}} city in the world. It has the highest nominal {{wp|GDP}} in the country, responsible for generating 19.9% of Nadauro's entire GDP.


Since 1940, the {{wp|global city}} has been a major center for {{wp|international politics}} and {{wp|diplomacy}}. Gonece is the ''{{wp|de facto}}'' main seat of the [[United Congress (Teleon)|United Congress]] (alongside X), as well as several other {{wp|intergovernmental organization}}s, such as the [[Central Commission for the Lonane]], the [[International Human Rights Council (Teleon)|International Human Rights Council]], and the X, most of these located in the [[Zollhafen (Gonece)|Zollhafen]] {{wp|urban renewal}} district. The {{wp|metropolitan region}} comprising 1.3 million inhabitants is part of a large {{wp|conurbation}} extending towards [[Greven (Dahemia)|Greven]] and [[Cherms]], known as the [[Lonane Arc]], and even beyond Dahemia's borders towards X and X in X, totaling a population of more than 5 million.
The city was initially founded on 8 January 1546 as the provisional encampment of the army of Lavish {{wp|conquistador}} [[Pedro Gárcia de Semhanas]] for the [[Parley of Tlecupilxan]] with [[Huecean Empire|Huecean emperor]] [[Yolotzil]]. The Huecean towns of Tlecupilxan and Itabira were swiftly absorbed by the rapidly growing settlement of ''Santaconceição'' (its name until the 18th century) after the subjugation of the Hueceans, before becoming the major economic center and {{wp|seat of government}} of the [[Captaincy of Secpa]] in 1577 and the [[Vice-kingdom of New Pania]] in 1602, as part of the [[Lavish colonial empire]]. After the 1820 [[Battle of As Cachoeiras]], it became the capital of the [[Nadauran Wars of Independence|now-independent]] [[First Empire of Nadauro|Empire of Nadauro]]; [[Emperor of Nadauro|Emperor]] [[Emperor of Nadauro|Luís I]] himself rebaptized the city with the name of ''Itabira'' and established the Federal District in 1821.


Gonece is a major continental hub for commerce and transportation. [[Gonece Airport]] is the busiest {{wp|airport}} in the country, and one of the busiest in the world. The [[Port of Gonece]] is the second-largest on the Lonane after X. The city's central railway station, [[Geinen Hauptbahnhof]], is the third-largest railway station in Calesia measured by floor area. As a notable {{wp|financial center}}, it hosts a number of corporate headquarters and subsidiaries, is home to the [[Gonece Stock Exchange]], and the [[Messe Geinen]] is one of the world's most influential {{wp|trade fair}}s. The [[University of Gonece]] is one of Calesia's oldest and largest {{wp|university|universities}}; other significant educational institutions include the [[Academy of the Arts (Gonece)|Academy of the Arts]] and the [[Technical University (Gonece)|Technical University]].
The city is home to Nadauro's main political institutions (the [[President of Nadauro|Office of the President]], the [[Federal Cabinet of Nadauro|Federal Cabinet]], the [[National Congress of Nadauro|National Congress]], and the [[Supreme Court of Justice of Nadauro|Supreme Court of Justice]]) and most of the country's corporate headquarters and offices; it is also considered the cultural, financial, commercial, educational, and industrial center of Nadauro and the [[Elian Rift]] region, and it is one of the most well-visited {{wp|tourism|touristic}} cities in the Southern Hemisphere. [[Itabira International Airport]] is the busiest airport in Elia Australis by passenger and cargo volume, and the [[University of Itabira]] is the second-oldest and largest {{wp|public university}} in the Elias. Major attractions of the city include the [[Catedral de São Paulo]] and [[Palacio da Praça]] on the [[Praça do Provo]], the [[Avenida da União, Itabira|Avenida da União]] main {{wp|boulevard}}, the [[Torre Eliana]], [[Yolomara Royal Palace]], and the [[Monumento do Renascimento]] on the [[Praça da Reforma]]. Itabira was the host of the [[1996 Summer Olympics (Teleon)|1996 Summer Olympics]], making it the first ever Elia Australian city to do so.
 
Major attractions of the city include the [[Bendlerberg]] (and the [[Marktplatz (Gonece)|Marktplatz]] main square), [[Old Castle (Gonece)|Old Castle]], [[Royal Palace (Gonece)|Royal Palace]] on [[Castle Square (Gonece)|Castle Square]], the [[Zollhafen (Gonece)|Zollhafen]] {{wp|central business district}} skyline, the [[Weserath Gate]], the [[Independence Column (Gonece)|Independence Column]], the [[Kaiserallee (Teleon)|Kaiserallee]] main {{wp|boulevard}}, and the [[Yingok|Yinese]] community in [[Emmanuelsstadt (Teleon)|Emmanuelsstadt]] (also called "[[Little Dongsing]]"). The urban landscape is characterized in part by extensive parks and green areas, including the [[Hofgarten (Teleon)|Hofgarten]], [[Wallanlagen (Teleon)|Wallanlagen]], the [[Zitadellenpark (Gonece)|Zitadellenpark]] surrounding the [[Donnerberg (Teleon)|Donnerberg]] hill and the [[Gonece Citadel]], the [[Volkspark (Gonece)|Volkspark]], the [[Zoologischer Garten (Gonece)|Zoologischer Garten]], and two {{wp|botanical garden}}s (the [[Old Botanical Garden (Gonece)|Old Botanical Garden]] and the [[Palmengarten (Gonece)|Palmengarten]]).

Itabira (Lavish: Itabira, Nadauran Lavish pronunciation: [itaˈbi.ʁa]), officially known as Itabira, Distrito Federal (abbreviated Itabira, D.F.) and formerly known as Santa Conceição de Itabira (Nadauran Lavish pronunciation: [ˌsanta ˈkɔnseisˈɐ̃w ðɛ ˈitaˈbi.ʁa]), is the capital and largest city of Nadauro, as well as the most populous city in Elia Australis; it is considered to be one of the world's X-speaking centers of culture, finance, econmics, and politics. Generally considered to lie at the cultural, geographic and economic crossroads of Elia Australis, it is situated 1,070 km (665 mi) by road from Fort Banister, X km (X mi) from X, and X km (X mi) from X.

Itabira largely comprises the territorial extent of the Federal District and it is situated in the Valley of Sacpa atop the Central Nadauran Plateau at an elevation of 1,950 meters (6,400 feet), making it the third-highest capital city in Elia Australis after X and X. The 2022 population of the city proper was 8,885,192, whereas the population of the Greater Itabira metropolitan area was 18,847,201, which makes it the fourth-largest metropolitan area in the world, the second-largest urban agglomeration in the Eastern Hemisphere (after X), and the largest Lavish-speaking city in the world. It has the highest nominal GDP in the country, responsible for generating 19.9% of Nadauro's entire GDP.

The city was initially founded on 8 January 1546 as the provisional encampment of the army of Lavish conquistador Pedro Gárcia de Semhanas for the Parley of Tlecupilxan with Huecean emperor Yolotzil. The Huecean towns of Tlecupilxan and Itabira were swiftly absorbed by the rapidly growing settlement of Santaconceição (its name until the 18th century) after the subjugation of the Hueceans, before becoming the major economic center and seat of government of the Captaincy of Secpa in 1577 and the Vice-kingdom of New Pania in 1602, as part of the Lavish colonial empire. After the 1820 Battle of As Cachoeiras, it became the capital of the now-independent Empire of Nadauro; Emperor Luís I himself rebaptized the city with the name of Itabira and established the Federal District in 1821.

The city is home to Nadauro's main political institutions (the Office of the President, the Federal Cabinet, the National Congress, and the Supreme Court of Justice) and most of the country's corporate headquarters and offices; it is also considered the cultural, financial, commercial, educational, and industrial center of Nadauro and the Elian Rift region, and it is one of the most well-visited touristic cities in the Southern Hemisphere. Itabira International Airport is the busiest airport in Elia Australis by passenger and cargo volume, and the University of Itabira is the second-oldest and largest public university in the Elias. Major attractions of the city include the Catedral de São Paulo and Palacio da Praça on the Praça do Provo, the Avenida da União main boulevard, the Torre Eliana, Yolomara Royal Palace, and the Monumento do Renascimento on the Praça da Reforma. Itabira was the host of the 1996 Summer Olympics, making it the first ever Elia Australian city to do so.
