Neo Babel: A place for the many, a home for the few. A country founded in East Asia millenia ago, its origins long since lost, and few dare delve to discover what lies under its neon-lit skin. There's no time for the past in Neo Babel, only the present; either move with the times, or be crushed beneath them. The cost of living is high and life is cheap: barring celebrities in their own right, few who go missing are rarely heard from again, and fewer still given a second thought.
MONMORRAH
Neo Babel's residential district, where most people live their daily lives and go about low-paying, mundane blue collar jobs. Most people live in vast apartment complexes, but such people are significantly closer to living in the slums than they to owning a house. It is the most crime-infested part of the country, especially due to senseless gang warfare. Education is bare, job opportunities far and few between, and many become desperate enough to leave for the Vineyards' gruelling shifts and bare necessities in order to escape the cramped spaces and poor law enforcement.
THE VINEYARDS
The industrial district of Neo Babel, the Vineyards is called such after the Cana Corporation essentially bought up all business here. Starting out as vintners, House Cana rapidly rose to wealth and in modern times are the greatest working powerhouse in the entire country. There has only been one attempt to break the monopoly of Neo Babel centuries ago, and so devestating was the defeat to Neo Babel's government that it is still repaying that debt in service to the corporation to this day. Work, shelter and security are a guarantee; the greatest criminals are the ones the labourers work for.
SODOMORRAH
Neo Babel's must-see tourism district Sodomorrah is where visitors can find the most landmarks, exhibitions, shows, taste authentic local cuisine and engage in all manner of activities. Everything here is cynically curated and perfect to a fault, as plain-clothes law enforcers act quickly and efficiently to keep Neo Babel's reputation and revenue safe. Those who dare to step into any nearby slums to look behind the curtain find actors playing the part of gangsters to give tourists a feeling of authenticity without putting them in any real danger, hoping to scare them enough to stick to the main attractions. A glamorous prison with an unlocked door.
NEW ENOCH
New Enoch is the bustling metropolitan district of Neo Babel. Rumoured to have grown from the Biblical Cain after exile for the murder of Abel, it has since spread to what is now assumed to be the site of creation in Christian lore. Despite not having a largely Christian population, it is a tradition to consider that being the most agreed upon reason for the city's being. New Enoch is considered where money changes hands in all manner of ways: retail, insurance, the stock market, fame and in its sprawling slums, infamy.
