Konrad
 
The capital of Imaginia

Konrad is the capital of Imaginia. It's a bit small for a capital (368,600 residents) and it has more jobs than inhabitants (over 400,000 jobs), though it's the largest city of Imaginia. Konrad is the economic center of Imaginia and the city has 2 large airports, 5 railstations and 3 main highways. In the center there is a vast one-way road network, so it's hard to navigate around the town. In the Hoogerhey area there's more structure in the road network. Hirises are dominating the sky, and for small houses you should look by the water and the west side of Konrad.

The History

Konrad was founded by the dutchman Konrad van Duyn in 1633. He wanted a trading post in Imaginia. By 1639, the town of Fort Konrad was a fact. Van Duyn got more than he ever wanted. Instead of a trading post, it became the economic center of Imaginia! The city grew and grew, and by the year 1900, the city has 75.000 residents. During the economic crisis of the 1930's, Konrad's economy collapsed, and jobs dissappeared. The ecomy was fully recovered in 1950, after World War II. By then, West-Imaginia was capitalistic, and Konrad was the capital of Imaginia. Hirises where soon dominating the skies. In 1990, Konrad became the capital of the whole nation.

Konrad International Airport and the Parlaiment Building (where the gouvernment of Imaginia is).

The airport has been removed. We don't want any planes crashing into buildings, do we? Oh, and do I spot the HRS v0.1?
