New York City

Earth’s capital is New York City, home to the government and military of The United Nations of Earth, though the UN’s administrative offices and the headquarters of its judicial branch are in the Hague. Climate change has caused sea levels on Earth to rise, flooding many coastal cities and turning them in whole or in part into crumbling, waterlogged ruins jutting from the sea. However, New York City - like many other coastal population centers - is protected by great sea walls that hold back the rising tide.
