Lexington

A city as luxurious as its name implies, Lexington is the corporate center of the region.  Many coalition business who have fought their way to the top of the economy are headquartered here.  Huge industrial giants such as Hallman: Uranite Technologies, inc., Toland-Huynh Agriservices, LLC., and PanJhit Land Developments Corp. employ small armies of administrative workers to keep their empires functioning. The city has a staggering population of 30 million inhabitants, many of whom travel between destinations in posh Terrashperes equipped with engines using Mass Reconciliation Technology.  Lexington is also the entertainment capital of the coalition, where many of its most popular programs are filmed and broadcast.  The Coalition’s state-run radio broadcast “Tears of Rust- WVIC” pumps pro-Coalition rhetoric across the region.   One of the more popular and current Telecast shows is named “Some Like It Cold”: a tongue in cheek comedy show that follows the protagonist Cinder Steve, an offbeat mine worker trying to charm and trick his way into the upper echelons of society, but always falling flat.  While popular with the general public, the show drew harsh criticism for making light of issues such as the prevalence of Cinderlung in mine workers and the continued use of slave labor in the region despite multiple petitions to coalition delegates by the emancipation group Honest Flame.   
The immense demand for energy produced by the city is supplied by dozens of Cinderite-Fusion Reactors dotting its landscape. One reactor can produce up to 2.5 MegaWatt Hours of energy, powering approximately two million housing units.  These reactors are fueled with the raw-then-refined Cinderite mined hundreds of miles away in the slave town of Grotsk, amongst other places.
