Ábbad is the capital and second largest city and capital within the nation of Palesmenia. The city has a rich history, being the capital of two nations that fell long before Palesmenia's creation.

History

The city was formerly the site of the capitals of Kampong (Chinang) and The Kingdom of Uantir (Castle Uantir). After the collapse of Uantir and the reduction of Juclandia's borders, the Palesmenian people stumbled upon the ruins of Castle Uantir. Most of what was Chinang was gone, save for the portions of the sewer pipes having Kampongese company names on them. It had appeared that the city was already looted, as many shops and houses where burned and had their windows smashed in. This, however, didn't stop Nasser I, future emperor of Palesmenia, from choosing the ruins as his seat of power. It was said he chose it for its highly defensible position and it's "nice seaside view". Ábbad's name is hard to trace back. The Láu people, a clan rivaling those of Nasser's , named the city "Anbárdiy", which literally meant "Sea Rock". Most people would tell you that people just began calling it "Ábbad" and the name stuck. After the unification of Palesmenia, it remained the capital and the seat of the nation's government, the Nadcraši. During the 1684 coup, the city saw heavy fighting, as republican and militarist militias sought control over the Federal District (which also held several other key cities). The fighting in the city caused heavy damage to infrastructure and structural components of the city, and caused many civilian deaths. However, after the coup ended, most of the damage was quickly repaired.

Ábbad Today

Today the city is a booming center of art, culture, and music. The city is also regarded as the financial capital of the country. However, ghettos aren't uncommon within the western part of the cities due to the lack of funding of these areas. Regardless, many people have began to move to the city for better opportunities and jobs.

Administration

The city is home to 6 municipalities, 3 of which are urban, 3 of which are suburban.
