City prime stood by the shore the huge metropolis contained within six layers of huge fortifications. The outermost reaches were farmland small houses intermixed amongst the growing wheat. After which came a militarized zone airfeilds to lauch the ungainly helicopter like vechiles the clockwork republic utilized for air combat and artillery cannons that could pound targets up to ten miles from the city limits.Next was a residential zone tall towers to house the city's many inhabitants as well as shops and other essential establishments for. The comfort of citizens. Next came an industrial area tightly packed with factories their smokestacks spewing exhaust into the sky as the internal machines rumbled away their clockwork gears churning completing the same task over and over again. Once more was a military section a fallback in the event of invaders breaching the first section. Last but not at all least came the innermost area a grand gray fortress large enough to house the entire cities population in a last stand style contingency. Connected by a huge road was a vast partially incomplete harbor its operationalshipyards sheltering dozens of ironclad warships. But even this was heavily defended with harbor guns consisting of three huge barrels mounted on swiveling turrets each barrel looked to be about 20 yards long giveing the impression that any naval assault would make no headway whatsoever the guns large enough to send one of the clockwork republic's own dreadnoughts to a watery grave. The ground for roughly a quarter of a mile around the city was a deep charcoal color the result of hundreds of clockwork repulic " battle cleanups" and even from here the sound of hundreds of clockwork ticks could be heard as the machines of the clockwork republic ticked away endlessly serving their countless purposes.
