Sahara City

Sahara City is a desert city with a long history and a clear Egyptian aesthetic. It places value on the families descended from the six kingdoms that surrounded the city, and is home to humans, anthros (namely foxes, jackals, cats, spiders, and cobras), driders, and another type of spider that stays in the shadows. Sahara City has ancient traditions that it holds onto even to this day, along with clear signs of the legacy the families left behind.
Unfortunately, this has led to classism problems, with some families putting down those who aren't from families due to not having the "blood of pharaohs", which led to the plans of Chavi Gamal before her death to try and drag the families down.
==History==
Sahara City was founded by King Falzur about 4700 years ago, where he worshipped the Duel Spirits of the Egyptian God Cards. It was at the center of the Phoenix Kingdom while being surrounded by six other kingdoms: Fox, Jackal, Cat, Spider, Cobra, and the hidden Dragon Kingdom, all ruled by their own pharaohs.
==Alpha Rangers: Evolution==
The Alpha Rangers and Caleb's allies arrive in Sahara City not long after the former got back from recruiting Free. There, they went into Vixtanu's tomb, where they met Hatem and Nerin, along with fending off the Osirix family and witnessing the awakening of Vixtanu, who tells Hatem and Nerin they're the reincarnations of Falzenhotep and Horusipatra, respectively. While Jason and the Rangers quickly accepted that, Caleb was skeptical of them being reincarnations, which creates an enmity between him and Hatem that grew throughout the visit to Sahara City.
All of them met the Vulpentari siblings, and Nefer accepted that Hatem was reincarnated, though Nefer was skeptical at first. The teams split in two, with some of Caleb's team staying behind in the city while the Rangers and the others went to the Dark Bird's tomb, where she awakened and started killing Wallace Harper's cousins, though the Book of Set was recovered. When Caleb tried to destroy the Book of Set there and now, he was ambushed by Shukura, who left when she saw a vision of his corruption, then Yuri tried carding him, though he was saved by Suneater. This made the conflict between Caleb and Hatem even more intense, while Yuri carded Cleo and Anutep Osirix, stole the Wicked Avatar, and defeated Jennifer Cruz in a duel.
Everyone went to two fronts--the Rangers met the Asker family, while Lucinda's group and Caleb's team entered the spider district, where after Hatem arrived, Zaros OTKed Caleb with his Valkyries before issuing an ultimatum: if Hatem doesn't defeat the Dark Bird by sunrise, she'll sacrifice his parents. As such, Hatem, Nefer, Nerin, and Vixtanu went and recovered the Mystic Book of Anubis, while Mira dueled Caleb to get his spirits back up. The Marauders and the Bishara family came to help, and though Ahmed suggested rallying the families, that plan was shot down due to how much the two teams outnumbered the Dark Bird and how long it'd take to search Sahara City for them.
Vixtanu joined the Bazuri family, and everyone assaulted the Dark Bird's tomb, where she pulled them all into a Shadow Game. Skylar and Sakari became a couple, Jason met Anucis, who told him how Shukura had captured hundreds of Duel Spirits to power the ritual, Caleb gave up trying to argue with Hatem, and everyone narrowly escaped being eaten by an angry sphinx. Hatem finally challenged Shukura to a Shadow Duel, while Nerin, Vixtanu, Caleb, and Suneater went and freed Hatem's parents just minutes before sunrise. Shukura lost by default and tried killing the Bazuri siblings right then and there, but the Argent siblings destroyed the Book of Set. As a Penalty Game, Shukura lost her soul, which was taken away by winged figures with chains, with the Duel Spirits being freed as a result. 
The two teams left Sahara City soon after.
The Rangers return to Sahara City after the Seacrest Cup, while Operation Rock Smash happens early during the visit due to timezones. After Vixtanu ambushes Alex, Shinji, and Theodore and is stopped by Hatem, everyone visits the tomb of Falzur. He manifests before the team, telling them about a way to counter the power of the Wicked Gods. Because of that, they go to the museum that Mahmoud works at to research this method, a pair of daggers forged by the Cat Kingdom called the Feathers of Ma'at, but not before Caleb calls Alex and Shinji.
Once things are done at the museum, they travel to the Mansour family's mansion, reuniting with Kimiko and Gong along the way. They learn that the first of the two daggers is located in the city, and after Hal calls Alex's trio about the events of the operation, including Dabi's ambush and Caleb and Tamaki both going to the hospital, they meet up with Nefer again. The Koopalings attack during that time, and while they're scared off by the power of Kimiko's Shen Gong Wu, Kamek orders the Koopa Troop to start searching the city, with Roy in particular asking for Petey Piranha's assistance.
The team splits into four, while Osran Raven meets with the gang leader Chavi, who promises to help if they aid her in her own goals. Jason's group heads out to the ruins of the Spider Kingdom to speak with the ghost of Zeferkari, while Alex's trio and Hatem's group go to search for the first dagger. Unfortunately, one of Chavi's goons disables Vixtanu, so Hatem's group has to take a detour back to Nefer's home to help her.
