New Atlanta (formerly the cities of New Beachfield and Victoria) is the capital city of the Victorian Republic. It was started as a small colony of the XR, based over on Active Worlds, but later declared it's independence in the wake of political crisis and remained an independent city for a month before declaring itself a republic. New Atlanta is split into two segments, New Atlanta-Victoria and New Atlanta-Beachfield, which are run largely autonomously of each other by their chief heads. Under the Victoria segment, consists of Metro Vicky (GZ), West Vicky, East Vicky, and the Victorian Sea District. New Beachfield consists only of Downtown NB.
New Atlanta, particularly it's Victoria segment before the merger, has been responsible for being a springboard for newer users that have went on to develop their own cities or builds outside of the area over the years, such as Cannaville, New Phoenix City, and Gabrieleville (the first two being member-cities within the republic itself). The city itself is known for also introducing some of VP's best builders towards the platform.
Overview
Pre-Merge
New Atlanta began as the city of Victoria, a small village setup for people who wanted to move over to VP, and remained as a territory under full control of the government in comparison to it's sisters whom allowed more local governance. It never became as big as it's sister communities until the city declared itself a republic months later, but did serve as an example for a partly-successful migration between two platforms. Political turmoil, hacking incidents, and fading interest forced the XR to disband as it lost most of it's government and population while the remains regrouped in Victoria.
The city was immediately faced with several options after the fall of the XR: join Palmshire, go it alone as a city, or become it's own nation. A month later, it became a nation due to not wanting to lose it's any of it's sovereignty. After it's statehood, the city began to construct Lake Victoria as well as an international transportation network connecting Vicky and the area of NCH within the kingdom. Vicky during it's time as a republic has also been it's largest period of expansion, with the formation of a port and growth around the lake and eastern regions of the area. In July 2016, the city government approved a request to create an autonomous region involving the construction of an artificial island, hereby becoming the city's first individually owned district. In August, the issue of multiple migrant communities from Active Worlds not fully integrating with the main area of Blizzard came to a head. The Victorian government issued a joint statement alongside the Lemerican Federation (and indirectly Summerville for a brief moment) within the Facebook group, protesting the current Palmshire parliament system, accusing it of not fully representing all of VP while imposing laws upon the world of Blizzard itself. After solutions were reached, drama flared again the following day until the existing parliament including Palmshire itself was dissolved by Legion, leaving Victoria, Summerville, and Lemerican the only active communities for a while until it's revival.
The governmental body of Victoria was dissolved in October under order of the High Governor in response to the fallout. Eventually, the peerage was reformed and revived in the later portions of the year. Victoria would gain new builders such as Tardyllamma and PCBilder later in December 2016, leading to a massive expansion of the city itself and the revitalization of the Victorian Sea District project by RyanLion and Courier, allowing for the formation of a proper canal and small sea region to surround all of Victoria's northern newfound coastline.
Transformation into New Atlanta
In January 2017, the Kingdom of Palmshire collapsed, leaving the nearby city of New Beachfield independent. Negotiations began with Sarah to bring NB into the republic long before the collapse, but it was eventually decided on merging the two cities to unite under the name of New Atlanta.
