Shindo (新都 Shin-do) is the capital of Namsa. It is the second-largest metropolitan area in the country, with over 2,8 million residents. Situated on the Jedong region, it is the capital of Shin province and Namsa's major port.
In 1501, general administrator Kim Sun designated the area now known as Shindo as the new capital. It quickly became one of the biggest cities in the New World, and the main hub for cultural and economic exchange between eastern and western colonial powers. Shindo saw multiple raids and invasions througout its history, most notably the Japanese occupation of Shindo. The city became a hub of tourism in the 18th century. After the Baekyeonhwa, Shindo remained an important cultural hub for Namsa, but it no longer was the preferred destination for Korean settlers, as they moved towards the rapidly industrializing west.
