==History==
The history of Citadel is one of the longer in the server.
Early Cao Yuan:
On the 21st of the 11th, player MCLS_Lotus joined the town of Cao Yuan, almost a week later she founded Citadel, a small shipbuilding company operating domestically for Cao Yuan. After building many yachts for high profile players, Citadel shifted to building warships, this netted Citadel a large amount of money and they began to shift towards a global market netting even more income.
Corporate Independence:
After much time gaining wealth, Citadel split from Cao Yuan and started a separate town under the Cao Yuan nation, this move was politically motivated. The split of the nation and company fell right before Ireland joined Cao Yuan, forming the Irish Yuan Commonwealth, this helped cement The Commonwealths reach as a nation, and net more profits to Citadel.
Origin Horizon, Jumpworks, Solar City and Microtech:
After a rival mega corporation successfully raided Citadel, leaking their powerful Rapid Deployment Torpedo technology to the world, Citadel fled to New Zealand, with a large plot of land purchased from the USR by Lotus herself. The town became known as Citadel Aotearoa, 4 more mega corporations joined Citadel in this move. Origin Horizon was the largest Yacht Builder in the world at this point, and worked closely with Citadel to produce ships. Jumpworks was a corperation that specialized in building airships for war and leisure, the company was a branch of Citadel that declared independence, not as well known as some other companies, but it was highly trusted in the Yuan Commonwealth. Solar City was a very powerful energy and infrastructure provider, it build many of the buildings still left in the now ruined town. Microtech was a global company based in a now long gone nation, they produced many of the small components needed for ships. Together these 5 companies ruled most of the worlds ship and airship production.
The Corporate Wars:
Citadel Aotearoa was peaceful for many moons, until a small dispute between Solar City and Citadel regarding the payment for the power used by the town, this caused the 1st corporate war, over 700 civilians and 1200 company employees died as a result of the conflict. Only a few months later, the 2nd corporate war started with Solar City and Microtech. Microtech at placed restrictions of trade between the companies to help stop the 1st corporate war, but refused to lift them after the war ended, thanks to Citadel bribes. Solar City ceased almost all power being sent to Citadel and Microtech, causing catastrophic damage to infrastructure. Microtech and Citadel launched a series of attacks and raids on Solar City outposts across the island, and all but decimated their company within weeks. Microtech absorbed Solar City and later merged with Citadel to make Citadel Party. During this time of large blood raids, almost 60,000 Solar City employees died at the hands of Citadel and Microtech soldiers. The 3rd war started when Jumpworks attempted to get the government involved, they contacted the Yuan Commonwealth with the intent to get military help to quwell the conflict. A week after the distress call was made, the shores light up with fire from Yuan Commonwealth carpet bombing. Microtech managed to almost completely destroy the Yuan Commonwealth fleet using enhanced Citadel Submarines. This forced the Yuan Commonwealth out of the conflict and started the Citadel Party sieges on Jumpworks. At this point Origin Horizons was neutral and accepted bribes from both sides, they collapsed after a global revolution and declared bankruptcy months later.
The Steel Sakura Blossoms Fall:
After the corporate wars months of peace followed Citadel Party, until the Japanese Suppression wars, Citadel Party remained neutral until Cao Yuan, now Possibility was sieged and captured. After weeks of fruitless negotiations, Citadel Party joined the Japanese in an attempt to capitalize of them. During this time, many Japanese immigrants fled to Citadel Aotearoa to avoid the Japanese government. This massive influx of immigrants lead to the migration of Citadel Aotearoa to its current location south of Golden Malaysia. The new Citadel and Sakura was heavily influenced by Shintoism brought in by the Japanese immigrants, and it heavily effected the construction of the town. 
==Daily Life and Culture==
Citadel and Sakura have a mixed Polynesian/Māori and Shinto culture, Torii gates can be observed around the towns and cities, for example. Citadel schooling is known to be very predatory to lower income families, the owner of the house is considered the Family Spokesman, if the Family Spokesman earns less than $150,000 per year, the family is considered Lower Class and all children are sent to labour schools. Labour Schools are large schools owned by powerful education companies, these are used to raise workers from a young age, children are sent to Labour Schools at 14 years of age, and leave at 27, where they immediately start working, normally in farms or construction. If the Family Spokesman earns over $150,000 per year, the family can choose what school to send their children to, schools range from High Class Labour schools, Art schools, military schools or the pristine Corporate Schools, these schools are the high way to high paying employment, as well as starting loyalty to a large corporation.
Among the Low Class citizens, they are expected to speak English or a regional dialect, this however, is not taught in school and must be taught by the parents, this has lead to a 20% illiteracy rate among Low Class Citizens. The High Class families are expect to speak at least 3 languages, normally English, Japanese and a regional dialect, however its not uncommon to see younger high class citizens who speak 4, or even 5 languages. Citadel food, like most things in Citadel culture, depends on the family income, it can range from canned, processed meat with steamed vegetables to daily glazed and marinated roasts, commonly laced with gold leaf.
The most common occupation in Citadel and Sakura is one of many forms of Maids or Servants, these are normally payed well by high class CEO's or rich families. The second most common occupation is any form of a shipwright, shipbuilding is considered the most stable job for a young person in Citadel. There are 23 Million people in Citadel and Sakura, but there is over 40 million registered businesses, this makes CEO's very common, and the third most common occupation, its very normal for parents to buy their children a company as a present on their 22nd birthday.
In Citadel and Sakura, high class citizens are considered adults at 22 years of age, while low class citizens are considered adults at age 17. Citadel has a 100% employment rate, as adults who are unemployed are not considered adults, along with those who earn less than $90,000 a year. It is common to see these unemployed and "poor" families wandering the streets begging for money in the dimly lit parts of cities. Police corruption is common in the government, and they are commonly seen assaulting and abusing these families. 65% of Citadel law enforcement is owned by mega corporations, with another 15% owned by smaller, dedicated companies, these forces are normally very well organized, and act like state or city police inside corporate grounds. Corporate Police are a rare find in the masses of people unskilled in that area of work, and are thus treated, and payed very well by corporations.
Employees of mega corporations are generally "discouraged" to join another corporation, punishment for this can range from murder of the individual or murder of the individual and their family. Citadel and Sakura has a very small and corrupted government, however this organization is similar to the crown in a constitutional monarchy, citizens have almost no loyalty to their country, and are only loyal to their corporation. Companies control almost every part of Citadel and Sakura life, and its common to see generations of families who only worked in one corporation or a branch of the same corporation. On [redacted] of the [redacted], mega corporation Jitatek Private Military Company was raided by Citadel and Sakura government forces, this was due to alleged human trafficking, something the government, and only the government is apposed to. The raid left 5 Jitatek employees injured and over 400 government mercenaries and soldiers killed, this was the day everyone realized the government is powerless over their nation, and is at the mercy of the mega corporations.
Defense is a delicate issue, there is not a single defense force or military, but several corporations building war machines and training soldiers, all of these act as their own unit, making Citadel and Sakura a very unpredictable ally and enemy. Citadel is the largest naval power in the world, the company owns hundreds of ships and trains hundreds of thousands of sailors yearly. the Army is mostly dominated by Jitatek Private Military Company, but there are many similar sized corporations doing similar operations. 
Corporations tend to have more structure than most governments, ruling their land as if they are. Citadel, the largest corporation, for example, has Empress Lotus, Sengoku No Gunkan of Citadel and Sakura, the closest thing the country has to a leader. Jitatek has Supreme Commander Haisack, Sengoku No Bushō of Citadel and Sakura, while these are equal in rank, they oversea totally different parts of the nation. These two are examples of the Naming Unicode, present in almost all companies, Empress Lotus' rank, Sengoku No Gunkan, translates to Warship of the Warring States, while Sengoku No Bushō translates to Warlord of the Warring States, these names date back to the early days, before Cao Yuan.
Global Diplomacy is handled by Empress Lotus and Citadel Proper (Citadel and all of its sister and daughter companies), Citadel and Sakura is a town under The Kaiserreich Afrika, Citadel and Sakura holds a large amount of autonomy, and generally acts as an independent entity, however, the mega corporations have many ties with the Kaiser himself, and are more than willing to lend a hand in the name of prosperity. from the inside, Citadel and Sakura is a massive, inescapable machine, but from the outside it is a wonderful business partner and powerful ally.
Citadel and Sakura is what happens when corporations act like governments, when peoples are oppressed, slavery and trafficking is rewarded and drugs are one of the most profitable businesses. Everything about the nation is made to be efficient, weather it be layering their steak with literal gold, or rolling out superships on the daily, Citadel and Sakura is a powerful entity, and is not to be underestimated
