Overview
Cyrene is a large city located on the shores of the Eastern Sea and surrounding the Bay of Cyrene. The capital city of the Republic of Paxem, Cyrene is one of the most populated cities on the Doggerland bank, and currently operates the largest port on the continent. It is famous for its governmental district, vibrant downtown area, large skyline, and electricity-generating seawall.
Inception
Originally, the city was designed by architects Antonin Kaldwin and Julia Meynora as a replacement capital for the Neu Corporate Republik after the planned destruction of Novenæ by Florian Steinbauer. Florian Steinbauer had a significant hand in the project's design as well, especially the federal sector of the city, where the large, imposing buildings reflected his obsession with power and status. In a book published by Julia Meynora after the war, she reported that Steinbauer stated "It needs to intimidate. It needs to show the rest of the universe that we're a force to be reckoned with."
After the end of the war and the defeat of the NCR, the plans for the capital were discovered in two locations - a room adjacent to Florian Steinbauer's office at the Chisel Enterprises regional headquarters in Novenæ, and within Julia Meynora's office in Neu Wiltshire. These plans were quickly requisitioned and studied by the newly formed Paxemese government, who was already preparing to construct a new capital due to the extensive damage and rumblings for independence in Novenæ.
