GOTHAM CITY MY NEW CJ Interduction Gotham City was founded in 1635 by a Swedish mercenary and was later taken over by the Kingdom of Great Britain. During the American Revolutionary War it was the site of a major battle and various occult rites were rumored to have been conducted within the city. Perhaps for these reasons Gotham is a dark and foreboding place rife with crime, grime, and corruption. Despite this, Gotham City has maintained a thriving economy and is considered a major economic center of activity. [edit] Architecture The unique architecture of Gotham City can be traced back to Judge Solomon Wayne during the pre-American Civil War era. Wayne's entrepreneurial skills made him a leading citizen in Gotham, starting a dozen businesses including the Gotham Buggy Whip Works. His campaign to reform Gotham came to a head when he met Cyrus Pinkney, a young architect looking for a commission. After the promotion of Pinkney's designs in the Property Holders Association, Wayne commissioned the first Gotham Style structures to be built in what is now the center of the city's financial district. Despite mixed reviews from critics, the Gothic architecture became a focal point for a thriving commercial center. Wayne and Pinkney would raise a dozen similar buildings in the years that followed, as Gotham took on a new face that would make it famous the world over. [edit] GCPD and corruption In addition to rampant organized crime activity in the city, the Gotham City Police Department (GCPD) was steeped in corruption up until the late 1980s. The strongest blow against police corruption came in 1986, when an increasing amount of conspiracy charges against Commissioner Gillian Loeb forced him to resign his position. The Falcone crime family, which had had a stranglehold on Gotham's underground for generations, finally crumbled by the end of the 1980s, when a series of killings shook the structure of the mafia organization. After the death of Carmine Falcone in 1988, the Mafia lashed out in sloppy, retaliatory crimes, which, in combination with rising gang violence, severely crippled organized crime in Gotham City. Simultaneously, the ebbing presence of corrupt police officers allowed James Gordon to become the new commissioner, a man determined to eradicate crime wherever it existed. [edit] Arkham Asylum Numerous costumed maniacs have emerged, necessitating the construction of an asylum dedicated to the incarceration of the criminally insane (called Arkham Asylum in homage to the fictional city of Arkham, Massachusetts in the works of H. P. Lovecraft, whose stories often included forbidding and decrepit New England cities with histories of occult practices and other evils). The origins of the asylum have been traced back to 1920, when psychiatrist Amadeus Arkham converted his estate into a mental health institution. Dr. Arkham studied under Carl Jung and Aleister Crowley, and pioneered several key concepts in criminal psychology. Unfortunately, a series of personal tragedies caused Dr. Arkham's mental deterioration. At the start of the Great Depression in 1929, Amadeus was incarcerated for assaulting his stock broker. He died years later, imprisoned in the asylum he created. His nephew, Jeremiah Arkham, currently runs the asylum, and oversaw its reconstruction in 1992, and its movement to the Mercey House in 1995. Unfortunately the asylum has rarely managed to cure or keep its various insane inmates for long. [edit] Recent events In the late 1990s, Gotham City suffered from an artificially created plague, and was given its most devastating blow when an earthquake (measuring 7.6 on the Richter Scale) struck the city in 1998. After much political controversy, a federal edict cut off the city from the rest of the United States, with most of Gotham's residents evacuating in the process. After a full year as a federally proclaimed no man's land, the reconstruction of the city was initiated by privately owned businesses, and later taken over by the Federal Works Projects. Old landmarks were painstakingly restored or recreated in tribute to the city's rich history. New buildings were erected, in addition to the completion of the Gotham Rapid Transit System, which included the longest independently operated monorail system in the world. Gotham thus regained its identity, and remains today as one of the greatest cities in the world. Additionally, James Gordon retired from service as Gotham's police commissioner. He currently is a law professor at Gotham University. He has been succeeded by the new police commissioner, Michael Akins. [edit] Mayors A list of Gotham City's mayors, in chronological order from earliest to latest: * Hamilton Hill * Armand Krol * Marion Grange * Daniel Danforth Dickerson III * David Hull [edit] Residents One of Gotham City's most famous residents is Bruce Wayne, CEO of Wayne Enterprises and noted philanthropist and playboy. A number of heroes associated with Batman have operated in Gotham City. These include several youths in the role of Robin (Batman's sidekick), Nightwing (the original Robin Dick Grayson's adult superhero identity), Batgirl and The Huntress. Apart from Gotham's superhero residents, the residents of the city were featured in a back up series in Detective Comics, Tales of Gotham City and in two miniseries called Gotham Nights. In addition, the Gotham City Police Department is the focus of its own series, Gotham Central. Other DC Comics characters outside the Batman-related titles also reside in Gotham City. Alan Scott, the Golden Age Green Lantern, is based there and Plastic Man has been said to operate out of Gotham City as well. Tommy Monaghan, the title character from the Garth Ennis comic-book series Hitman, is a hired killer from Gotham's Cauldron neighborhood. [edit] Notable areas, landmarks, institutions and businesses In addition to Arkham Asylum, other major facets of Gotham City seen in Batman comics include: * Blackgate Maximum Security Penitentiary

our story starts in a remote and isolated village in the central mountains of the Japanese Island, Surgato. This village, home to about 500 pepole inside the city limits and 600 in the neighboring farms, are 70% Zen Buhhdist. Here is map of japan, Surgato is in Red Here is a view of the island Our Journey Starts with a young boy, Narguao (NOAR*GACH*YOU). Only 11, Nar(Or So His Freinds Call Him) His Mother died when he was only 6, leaving his Aunt and Uncle To take care of him. The three of them, along with his two cousins are crammed into a small hut, on the family Soybean farm. The soybeans that are harvested every year, along with the rice his aunt gets from trading cloth with the neigbibors, makes up there daily diet. To bring in the extra money to keep his family alive, his Uncle (Kwen Chi) works for a Natural Gas Refinery 30 miles form town. When Narguao finsihes his daily chores, he sprints to catch up with the other schoolchildren at the school, 3 miles away from the farm. WILL THE FUTURE EMPOREOR BE ENOUGH TO STOP THE SPREAD OF CHINESE COMMUNISM??

After the Attack on Akira, the Pepoles Army (Chinese Army) prepares its forces for invasion. The Liberation Sea Battlement(The Navy) prepares to battle against the more techniclly advanced Japanese Navy Here is Marika Beachhead, one of the strategic points needed to keep the mainland from invasion. The sign reads: This area is governed under the administration of the Japanese Navy and The Heirarchy of the Japanese pepole. NO TRESSPASSING!! The American Ship the U.S.S Anchorage was moving throught the South China sea 3 days ago. Apperently, it was attacked by a group of heavily armed Chinese warships. It did nto sink, but limped back to the Island of Surgato for repairs. The Chinese goverment claim no responsibility fot the attack, yet some think otheriwse. The Akishimo, the Pride and Joy of The Japanese Imperial Navy, travels to the front en route from Tokyo. Below it the smaller Fuijihu, both carrying H76 Tornado Figther/Bombers 7:38 GMT Today. In one swift stroke, the Yugistu Battle Divison of the Chinese Navy attacks the key Japanese island of Ditustu. Within an hour the Chinese attackers overwhelmed the Battlements and Raised their flag atop Hukip Hill, claiming the first of their victories in this bloody war.

By word of mouth, his uncle heard of a surplus of jobs in the Takamatsu Transportation Department So they make there way to the outskirts of Akria, the main railyard, which is one of the busiest in Surgato due to its central location to the four main cities. They cannot get a passenger for there little money, so they decide to ride Caboose in a coal train leaving Akiras Mine. The Train Pulls Away.. The last Civilization for 100 miles, the train stops at a rural station. As it rolls away the inevitable happens.. STAY TUNED FOR NEXT UPDATE TO FIND OUT!! P.S Please Comment
