International Nature Preserve: Difference between revisions

Aurora City is the primary population center of the preserve and the only location where "civilian" economic activity is allowed. The permanent population of the City is about 2,000 and its primary economic sectors are government, tourism and transportation. The only large airport and seaport within the preserve are located in Aurora City. It has a small downtown area with shops, restaurants, and one [[Catholic Church]], Our Lady of the Snows, which is part of the Archdiocese of [[New Yustona|Port St. Charles]]. Hotels are the most prominent structures in Aurora City, though the large Protected Lands and Sea Lanes Authority complex is the largest building in town, and it serves as the de facto governmental headquarters for the preserve. The city's location, an old Venua'tino fishing village, was chosen due to its natural sheltered harbor as well as stunning mountain views. Within Aurora City, the [[Taler]] is used as the de facto currency of exchange, and a majority of foreign visitors are from the [[Levantine Union]] or [[Nysdra Sea Treaty Association]].
