Foreman City is a city in the Zamastanian Province of Pahl, and is the 19th most-populous in the country and fifth most-populous in the province, after Duncan, Glades, Alanis, and Emerald, with a population of 3,272,000. Foreman City is known both as "the Iron City" for its more than 300 steel-related businesses and as the "City of Bridges" for its 446 bridges. The city features 30 skyscrapers, two inclined railways, a pre-revolutionary fortification and the Point Provincial Park at the confluence of the Crane and Albet rivers. Aside from steel, Foreman City has led in the manufacturing of other important materials — aluminum and glass — and in the petroleum industry. Additionally, it is a leader in computing, electronics, and the automotive industry. For part of the 20th century, Foreman City was behind only Tofino and Emerald in corporate headquarters employment; it had the most stockholders per capita. Deindustrialization in the 1970s and 1980s laid off area blue-collar workers as steel and other heavy industries declined, and thousands of downtown white-collar workers also lost jobs when several Foreman City-based companies moved out. The population dropped from a peak of 3,675,000 in 1950 to 3,270,000 in 1990. However, this rich industrial history left the area with renowned museums, medical centers, parks, research centers, and a diverse cultural district.
