Saint Rosalia

Saint Rosalia
The City of Saint Rosalia was founded by player WhenYouExist and is the current capital of the United Federations. It was first founded approximately in March of 2020 in Season 3, and quickly rose to become a prominent city on the server. The city is known for its Renaissance era Italian/French building style, which incorporates a unique block palette consisting of regular, smooth, and chiseled sandstone, smooth stone slabs, and red bricks. Saint Rosalia has been and is currently the only town on the server that uses this style of building, and has as a result become very well-known for it.

Government
Saint Rosalia is the capital of the United Federations and serves as the Federal District for which the national government is housed. Therefore, the city itself is managed directly by the national government.

Executive: First and/or Second Consuls

Legislative: The Senate of the United Federations

Judiciary: Not defined.

Residency
Residency in Saint Rosalia is for those who enjoy living in a town that enacts and enforces a strict building code. Those who prefer to build whatever they want, when they want, are encouraged to not reside in the city. Houses are generally prebuilt by WhenYouExist, though residents may build their own houses if they abide by the building code and are well-versed in the building style.

Strengths & Weaknesses
Saint Rosalia remains very prominent when it comes to architecture and aesthetics. These attributes make the city a symbol of power and prestige. However, the city generally lacks in industry, finance, and resources. This is because, as stated before, Saint Rosalia's sole purpose is to house the government of the United Federations, therefore the emphasis on industry and resource-production being diffused to other towns within the nation.

Future Plans/Expansion
Saint Rosalia is generally known to grow very quickly. It's mayor, WhenYouExist, has always pursued an agenda of aggressive expansion that usually entails the rapid annexation of large-swaths of land and the swift construction of buildings.

To quote a common conversation about Saint Rosalia that occurs in game:

Player 1: "Omg! How did you build all of this so fast!"

WhenYouExist: "Because I'm genuinely fucking insane."
