Welcome to my first City Journal, La República del Mundo Nuevo. This is a region of several cities, ranging from small to large and inspired by different countries and cities, including the United States and Hong Kong, specifically. This will not be me showing only completed products; I will be showcasing a lot of growth in the cities, as they have a long way to go still.

To start, here is a picture of part of the region.

Note: As the region is not yet complete, only certain areas are shown.

So, you can probably deduce a few characteristics about the region: Rail connecting the cities, only RHW used for the highways, and a tropical setting. Other details include that I will be using a lot of construction lots (my first time using them) and seawalls along the coastline in developed areas. I hope this ends up being as realistic as possible; I will make every effort to make it that way within my own style of building. I am also something of a transportation geek; transport in my cities is probably the most realistic thing about them. I'm hoping to eventually showcase a few transportation construction or improvement projects.

Oh, and although the region has a Spanish name, I've only had two years of Spanish class in school and am not fluent in it, if you were going to comment on the CJ in Spanish.
