Metamora, officially known as the Megalopolis of Metamora, is a Sparkalian nation housed on the western coast of the continent Pelia. It borders no other nation, being forced to pursue an autarkic and self-contained existence; however, it still contains a link to the outside world through the Cobalt Bay, the endpoint of the Mora River that the nation gets its name from. There are no other effective routes to connect it to other nations due to the Estethan Desert to its southeast, and the heavily wooded lands to its north. Despite the varied climates around it, Metamora itself enjoys a warm and sunny climate.

One of the last entirely sovereign city-states left in Sparkalia, Metamora defends its independence and governmental system jealously. The population of 8.28 million people are governed by a Technocratic Unitary State, established in the wake of the Grand Revolt against a forgotten origin nation. The government operates off of a fully planned economy, with private industry being entirely illegalized. This extreme economic system has produced a gradual but efficient industrialization of the city, with much of the economic development being centered around the Cobalt Bay.

History

Metamora is a relatively young nation, the very city itself only having archived records that date back to (PLACEHOLDER) at the earliest. Its architectural style varies throughout the city, with the oldest construction styles being found a stretch upriver from the existing city. This suggests that, over time, Metamora has moved further away from the river to attach itself to the coastline, which brought increased immigration from nearby towns and started its progress from a simple port town to a very large city.

Pre-Revolt City Era

The records and history around this time are fuzzy and generally not well understood, as few copies available to the public still remain. Most pieces are considered to either be lost in various undiscovered archives throughout the city, or are heavily classified and under careful preservation efforts. What is well-known, however, is that Metamora did not develop as a city-state. It was originally a normal city under the control of what scholars call "The Origin State", or what is more popularly known as "The Founders".

Metamora grew at a decent pace after its original establishment on the banks of the Mora river, attracting young and bright-eyed locals from the surrounding countryside to its opportunity.
