Neon District

Neon District is a district located in New Robloxity, USR. It is comprised of three cities, the Japanese and English-speaking one, heavily influenced by the west, Shiguto, the Chinese east-influenced Amery (that was a socialist enclaved country from 1969 to 1989) and the Spanish-speaking Novela Avenue. Shiguto has been the capital city of Neon District since 1924 and Amery the cultural capital since 1989.
== Name ==
Neon District got it's name from the Neon element and the fact that it's a district. The meaning of "Fujishiri", the name of Neon District from 1850 - 1923 is currently unknown.
== History ==
=== Settlement and Prehistory (1850 - 1923) ===
Neon District was settled by Japanese immigrants in 1850. Back then it was called Fujishiri, with a population of about 130 by the end of 1855. It grew slowly, as they mostly produced American agriculture, with the exception of rice shipments from Japan every year. It was finally recognized by New Roblox in 1888, and was the smallest district in New Robloxity back then, about a 16th of the size of Central Park.
The first American citizens came in 1890 to help develop the town, and they were let in.
It started growing in 1899 as two British scientists visited and invented the "Neon" element. The townsfolk of Fujishiri were impressed, and let the British stay.
=== The Chinese Invasion (1923) ===
Chinese immigrants ambushed and raided the city for loot in September 1923, creating the "Bloody September" holiday. The Japanese and Americans lost, and let them in. This forced Fujishiri to be renamed "Shiguto" and Amery Chinatown was founded, causing them to become an official district, naming themselves "Neon District". 
=== The Great Depression, Innovation and Television (1924 - 1952) ===
Around this time the area was starting to grow and more people started coming in, and by the end of 1929 Fujishiri had atleast 2000 people, creating the slum revolution in Neon District that still carries on today.
The Great Depression hit Neon District hard. People went homeless, electricity was also brought but was rare and people built homes on top of homes, which quickly became disease-ridden and dirty. By the end of 1939, TGD was over and World War II had begun. Neon District, allied with Japan, decided not to fight, because you know, they were a district, not a country. 
Innovation sprouted in the two cities, and by 1945 about half the population had telephones and radios at the same time. They were forced to make their own currency, which is the now obsolete Neon Dollar. NDRB started radio broadcasting in 1939 and eventually started television in 1952.
=== The Electric Revolution (1952 - 1969) ===
Electricity soon became extremely common in the district. By 1955 in Shiguto, about 60% had a radio, 30% a television set and 10% a motor car. This doubled in 1960 and tripled in 1965. Neon signs started to become extremely common. In 1957, 600 Chilean immigrants settled in Neon District, creating Novela Avenue.
Construction was good aswell. There were still slums but they were becoming less common, public housing and Danchis were being made out of concrete and even some Japanese-inspired urban-subruban houses were being made. In 1958, Amery Chinatown got television, 1964 saw Shiguto getting a second channel, then in the next year they got color. 1969 saw Novelan television aswell. But this all came to a halt in 1969.
=== Amery's Battle for Independence (1969) ===
In 1969, Amery Chinatown made a deal with the Soviet Union to become the smallest citystate in the world. This would be called the "Socialist Citystate of Amery". They had a short but bloody war with Shiguto and Novela Avenue in 1969 that lasted 14 days. Eventually, they one, and became the first socialist enclaved citystate in Robloxia.
=== Silence. (1969 - 1973) ===
When the Amery SC was created, Neon District, which now had atleast a third of it's land taken over by the Amery SC, and was only left with Shiguto and Novela Avenue, went into mourning. This lasted for about three months.
What was happening in the Amery SC was crippling it. Propaganda, statues, NDRB jammers, slavery, cheap labor, false info, slums, diseases and god knows what else.
Color television finally reached full-time for Shiguto in 1971, but was yet to be introduced in Novela Avenue until the late 1970's. Everything went back to normal but in 1973.
=== Hyperinflation (1973 - 1975) ===
On March 3rd, 1973, the government of Neon District started to print more Neon Dollars. "NOOOO! YOU CAN'T JUST HYPERINFLATE OUR CURRENCY, MAKING CHEAP NOODLES COST ATLEAST 10 MILLION N$!" Cried the cityfolk. "Haha, money printer go brrrr." the government responded as 10 N$ turned to 100, then 1000, 10000, and 100000. It got worse in August, as 1 Robingle was atleast 10 million N$. 95% of the population lived in poverty. Electricity stopped being affordable. The townsfolk had no choice but to throw away their money. NDRB 2ch quickly stopped broadcasting color full time, then NDRB 1ch, and then they almost went off the air.
Neon District was in shambles. Novela Av. had it bad, but Shiguto had it worst.
The ecomony then hyperdeflated in 1974, but 1 Robingle didn't go lower than 150 N$. Recovery took a year, which was extremely fast for a now underdeveloped city.
=== The Pogchamp Years: Part 1 (1975 - 1989) ===
In Janurary 1975, the Neon Dollar was discarded, and E-Cash was created by Econo-Smart, the precessor of Neon District Bank although they wouldn't be de facto by 1978. According to the "Make The City Rich You Idiots" law of 1975, 1 Robingle = 17 E-Cash. This made the city so developed for some reason, that atleast 15 non-fake skyscrapers had been constructed by the end of 1980, and it also made NDRB rename themselves to NTS, splitting the radio part into NRS. 
Slums still existed, but most of the poor people moved into lower-middle class Danchi and Japanese metropolis urban settlements, although the Neon District Metro was still extremely popular. Also, the worn-down dusty abandoned buildings quickly turned into futuristic vaporwave-like buildings. Neon District's main motive was no longer to work hard and throw away your money, it was to work hard and have fun.
1000 North and South Korean immigrants arrived in Neon District in 1976, and settled in between Shiguto and Novela Avenue.
Color television in Novela Avenue was introduced in 1978, and full color began in mid 1979.
In 1980, the last black and white TV set used unironically was sold. VHF shut down in 1989 to make way for new channels, such as the newly-launched NRTN 3. But the Amery SC was falling and slowly being exposed. Time for a 3-month war.
=== Battle Against the Amery SC (1989) ===
In August 1989, the USR Navy launched "Operation Frick Down the Amery SC For Being Disgusting Commies", and Neon District hopped to the chance for a 3-month war against the Amery SC. People were killed, statues destroyed and labourers rescued. On November 10th, 1989, one day after the Berlin wall fell, the president of the Amery SC, Jin Jieming resigned, and the Amery SC flag was raised down. The Amery Curtain fell, and Neon District had some of it's land back, yay!
=== The Pogchamp Years: Part 2 (1989 - 2008) ===
After the Amery SC fell, development sprawled all over the district. NRT renamed themselves to NRTN, and TV Novela planned to rename themselves TVN. More skyscrapers were built, and the fake Amery SC skyscrapers turned real. Neon District became the second biggest city in the world of revenue. These were true pogchamp moments. The Neon District New Years 2000 celebration was the biggest in the world, the amount of fireworks made the sky extremely bright until atleast 7:00 and the noise from the Fujishiri Stadium deafened atleast 57 elders.
=== Modern days (2008 - present) ===
The ecomony fall hit Neon District real hard in 2008. The architecture wasn't effected, but people sure did. People lost their jobs and went homeless. It was a real mess but everything went back to normal in 2009, I guess. People got their jobs and homes back.
In 2016, the CEO of Cybervision, the main Chinese television network in Neon District was overthrown by the citizens of Amery Chinatown for fake news and propaganda.
Today, Neon District is a crime-riddled, dangerous but amazing to live in city. That is all I have to say about the history.
