Well kids, I decided to get back and work on my old region. I started this region in march 2011, almost 2 years now. But i stoped some months and started another regions, but this one is my gem. The population so far is 6.390.000 and counting. And this is the current region. Sorry, no larger version =(

Muito Lisboa

Replies TowerDude: Esta la cuidad muy grandes A: you haven't seen anything yet jigsaw: looking fantastic. i have been studying the history of New york, and this CJ does it credit. i have found DEM data on Manhattan before colonisation that would be great to use in SC4. check out 'mannahatta' or 'gotham: a history of New york".... great pics and well researched history A: Dude, i have seen all the pictures of Manhattan from the 17th century , it was smaller. And thanks! The history of NYC is just amazing....

Byeana

Replies 9988: I really like many buildings there, awesome city! I also think that this small amount of maxis stuff there should be even smaller. A: Thanks. 1000000000: Not a busy traffic day on the highway huh? Great work on the Downtown and transit systems! I think the diagonal sewalls are a bit problematic though. I think that Church in the first pic is also oddly placed... A: I probably took those pictures with the pause on. And the church might seem oddly places because the city was not planned....

Replies Schulmanator: This is certainly a nice area. And, BTW, I like your current avatar. A: Thanks!

A: Si y No, esto es solo el mapa de New York. 7891122562059523: It is really realistic, considering that you tried to mix poor with rich, this is very good. And also, your city looks an american one! Indeed! A: Thanks! It's so good to read comments like yours XD bwong: Nice stuff! Just...

Replies escilnavia: Wow, beautiful city, how long did it take you to build? A: Well, i'm still working on this city, so that would be 6 months. vivapanda: It is an amazing neighbourhood, especially the biking path is some great dutch work bu the timber framed house and the name/style of the church seems more German to me, being Dutch myself. But beside the name it is awesome! A: Thanks, well, i think i made a mistake choosing those apartments then. 111222333444: Nice to see that A: oh, thank you!...

1660 - 1670

Replies TekindusT "Just to be picky, the Spanish coat of arms you used on the message is the democratic one, established in 1981 if I remember well. There have been several official ones since Philip V's "unification", before this king, all different kings used their own coat of arms (and some of them are quite cool, you can see them here [link]).But if you don't know this, it looks very nice!" Yeah, it's more interesting if you know even a little about history. I didn't know about the coat of arms, i just...
