Starlight City

Starlight City was a coastal port town located in the Northwest of the map. It served as the capital of Towny.

It's a fairly old city (the oldest in Towny) and has long been considered the de-facto center of the entire continent. It held this reputation until the very end, as the towny's spawn was located here.

Many important institutions were situated here, including the Starlight City Police Department, Starlight City Library, Central Towny Hospital, and others.

Life Quality
Housing was extremely cheap, but apartments were less comfortable than in other places - still featuring their old, small historic designs. There were exceptions however, and you could come across some quite fancy apartments in the sea of apartment complexes.

Temperature was moderate, with cold winters and hot summers. Although, it did have a tropical feel to it, as the sea surrounded 3 sides of the city and you could find multiple beaches and bars.

Starlight City was ranked as one of the safest cities in the entire world. It was also one of the busiest cities, and seeing players walking/driving by was very common.

History
Starlight City is the oldest known settlement in the entire Towny continent, built around 50 years before official release (in year 1).

Ever since the very beginning, the town had served as the capital of the entire continent, and for a long time its inhabitants knew nothing about the outside world as it was yet to be explored. Therefore, other than a few tiny settlements built not long after (notably North Springs), Starlight was the only major population center in the entire world.

Throughout the many years of its existence, the city had seen a large amount of renovations. However, it was always aimed to not change the original look and design of the town, for historic purposes. So, even though newer cities such as Nightshade had a significantly more modern infrastructure, Starlight's old buildings still remain today, and it can literally be considered a living museum.

After the first big expansions, other major population centers were created (Nightshade, Moonville). This meant that Starlight lost its initial importance (even though it still remained as the capital). After the rise of new nations and settlements in all corners of the continent, Starlight ended up not being as dominant as it used to be in the earlier ages, being forced to form the Metropolis Union.

After the Great Towny Depression and the fall of nations, it's safe to say that Starlight eventually received its long-known reputation as the capital of Towny once again.

Since it has always been at the center of the world, it had seen many conflicts and civil wars throughout its history. Notably:
 * The Starlight Massacre
 * Iron Golem Wars
