Arcadia

America’s newest and farthest-north major metropolitan city. Colville overtook Chicago in population in 2042 to become America’s third largest city, and the rapid growth is shown through the futuristic architecture of the city (developers had a near blank slate, as Colville was a very small town before). Situated right near the US-Canada border, Colville sits between the Columbia River and the Colville National Forest, and is across the river from the Colville Reservation.   In addition to being one of the largest cities in America, Colville has one of the biggest wealth gaps. The upper class lives among the bright lights, tall skyscrapers, and flycars in the city proper, while right outside the city limits live millions of low-income workers, most of whom commute into the city to work support roles.   In 2042, Hercules Corp. decided to move their headquarters from Silicon Valley to Colville (this was the tipping point that pushed Colville past Chicago to become #3 in population). They built Hercules Tower, a massive spiraling skyscraper topped with a statue of Hercules slaying the Nemean Lion. Around Hercules Tower is a sizable complex of support buildings, gardens, and parks.
