This chapter is an interesting montage of images, showcasing the Tour de Magne as well a handful of new landmarks. The first two are nowhere near the city of Montereau, but instead are located in the heart of the rolling hills and forests that encompass the capital city. The castle is the Château de Chaumont which was named in honor of a previously venerable member of the SCJU, the Empire of Chaumont. The castle dates back several centuries and was built as a retreat for the Genevran monarch. The stone monolith standing in front of the castle was located at the sight first and it is unknown who constructed the beautiful statue; it was named the Fidèle Garde, or Faithful Guard, as it was seen as a symbol of protection over the capital city. Back in the city itself, the structure adorned with a golden dome contains the two houses of Parliament; the House of Peers and the Lower House and is the nexus of government affairs.

Whoa, nice use of STR in the intro pic! 

And, of course your Parisian and European style is the best I've seen.  Love the detail on the bridge over the canal, nice use of a median and light posts!

That mosaic is just incredible! My keyboard is covered in drool

I love the castle with that statue, that single rail bridge and the rail bridge next to it are just awesome! I also love the way you use Simfox's trees, it's splendid how they sit over the canal.
