Government

Belonging under the South Magocracy, Equality City follows a Federal Magocracy wherein there is a union of self-governing cities and states. This city is part of the Equivus Prefecture, often called the Capital Prefecture. Since the city is the capital, they have no mayor and instead, they are directly being ruled by Lala Sun and Mifa Hope, two of the Four Archmages. They are both tasked to be overseers of the political, economical and environmental issues within the city but also outside. They are also tasked to review and amend the general laws of the South Magocracy.
Equality City follows the barter system of trade and business. They are only being taxed every two months according to their state laws. Most of their taxes go to anti-crime campaigns, festival funds and transportation.

Defences

Personal Defenses--- some citizens often feel the need to protect their belongings. The most feasible solution for this is to use magical defenses. There are many ways to cast magical defenses although most need a generic protection charm for it to be activated. This charm is used as a detector but the mage who has bought it has the task to make sure it would activate when the time comes. For example, a water mage may buy a generic protection charm, they'll put some of their essence in it (mostly hair), and cast a spell. Then, they'll put on their door. If a burglar would break in their house, the charm would activate and immediately flood the burglar. Most humans would buy premade charms.
City Defenses--- The government tasks sentries to take turns guarding the city. When citizens are either going in or out, they'll be checked by the sentries. This remains true also for trade and business.

Industry & Trade

Unlike the other regions, Equality City does not have a farm or a barn to produce their foods and store them since Equality City is a metropolis. Due to this, the city is open to outsider trades. Their most prominent trade partner is Ifuster Region, a seafood region! Most trades that Equality City makes happens in the borders of the Ifuster Region and in Trade Town in the Middle East Region. The most important import is food and paper and the most important export are tools used for education.

Infrastructure

Most infrastructures use mostly wood for simply projects but important landmarks are usually in stone. The architecture style that is most prominent is triangular assymetrical, a bit similar to Magna City's but Equality City maximizes their use of beams and natural brown colors.
Some of the infrastructures that have been built are watermills, parks, avenue roads, main roads, houses, meeting halls and postal buildings.

Geography

Equality City is located in the middle of two mountain ranges, often called the Crescent Rocks--- one mountain range on the west (which contains the city of Magna) and a smaller, half-circle range on the east. A river, Thalassu River, runs through the valley from the west mountain range. This is where the people of the valley get their reserves of water.
