'''Minxia City''' is a city in northwestern [[Daxia]] and capital of the province of [[Mung]] with a population of approximately 470,000 people according to the 2027 general census. The city has a total land area of 1,065,353 km2. | '''Minxia City''' is a planned city in northwestern [[Daxia]] and capital of the province of [[Mung]] with a population of approximately 470,000 people according to the 2027 general census. Nestled deep in the Arik Mountains, extensive road and tunnel construction was needed to make transport to and from Minxia economically viable, so much so that it is not a critical transport junction for the transport of goods to neighboring [[Canpei]]. The city has a total land area of 1,065,353 km2. The city is the center of the country's phosphate production operations. Founded in 1964 as a planned settlement by the Department of Mineral Exploration to house the workers of the nearby phosphate mines, the city has grown and continued to thrive from this single industry, leading it to be known as the 'Fertiliser Capital of [[Daxia]]. Starting in the decade of the 1990's, steel mills also began to operate in the outlying districts, cementing Minxia as a top industrial city of the northwest. Minxia City is among the top ten most polluted cities in [[Daxia]] and is home to the sludge filled [[Lake Zhenzhu]], one of the man made wonders of the modern world. | ||
