District of Excelsior

The city of Eurina Ephronita is the largest and capitol city of the Confederated Republics of Atlastor. It is located at the mouth of the Upper Excelsior River and has a population of 6,843,000 within the city limits and a metropolitan population of around 18,000,000. The entire city as well as the cities of Sparastada, Saphirno, Shraveport, and surrounding suburbs comprise the District of Excelsior.

History:

The cities of Eurina and Ephronita were both founded in 1601. The site was chosen due to its strategic location at the mouth of the Upper Excelsior River. As a result, both the Belvedans and the Anardens competed for settlement rights at this site. Eurina was founded by the Belvedans and Eprhonita was founded 5 months later by the Anardens. By 1700 Eprhonita had a population of 34,000 and Eurina had a population of 28,000. With the transfer of the area from the Treaty of Partition the two cities fell into the hands of the Anardens. In the years before the Shepherd's Revolution the cities continued to grow and eventually the two cities conjoined. The two cities were chosen to become the capitol of the newly created Confederated Republics of Atlastor in 1769 and formally amalgated into the city of Eurina-Ephronita or Euephronite.
