Silograd is an abandoned city in Novdon. The former capital, it was once one of the most prominent cities of the Eastern Realms. Today it is largely uninhabited, although it is estimated that there are hundreds of undocumented people who remain. The city is in the Special Protection Zone where it is forbidden by law to visit without permission from the Novdavian government.
Silograd first emerged in the Classical era as the origin of the Silo Empire which dominated the southern shore of the Eastern peninsula until its fracturing during the Middle era. The city remained a large and continuously inhabited settlement, later becoming the capital of the Kingdom of Novdon. The city continued to grow as an important political and financial centre, later becoming the industrial heart of the Provisional State of Novdon which joined the Federate Union. The city experience large waves of Tasian immigration and became one of the largest cities of the Federate Union. After the Visit of 1954 and the looming Slowdown, the city and its surrounding area was swallowed up by monogas, creating a large no-zone and causing a massive exodus and the subsequent abandoning of the area. After the Wave of Nations and the Popular Uprisings, the People's State of Novdon moved its official capital to Zhalov and established the Special Protection Zone to administer the no-zone.
