As Soravia expanded, both in Euclea and colonially, many settlers travelled to Samistopol to live, quickly expanding the city's population and size. Samistopol was one of Euclea's fastest growing cities in the 19th century and was the fastest growing in western Euclea. The city suffered minimal damage during the First Soravian Civil War and Great War, preserving much of its original architecture. To the modern-day, Samistopol is still consistently ranked as one of the most influential cities in Euclea.

Outside of city planning and architecture, Samistopol is known for its vibrant night scene, universities, museums and restaurants, and is one of western Euclea's cultural capitals. Important political institutions such as the Voynaskul and Duma are also located in Samistopol.
