History

Chapeltown is the capital of Simonvia. It was established as the first settlement of Simonvian people. The hamlet has grown over many years into the bustling capital city that visitors will now find when they go to the capital of Simonvia. During the Oubanarian War, the Simonvian capital was one of the targets of many attacks. Now, the country just starting to regain normal life. The Chapeltown Bombings as they were known as, caused havoc throughout Simonvia. Now though, Chapeltown is thriving again and has recently reopened a high speed rail link to St Albans, another of the early settlements in Simonvia. Derby is only a short train ride away as well.

Transport & Tourism

Chapeltown Airport, luggage tag code CLN, opened in 2004 to fly people to and from places like Portaños and is served by many airlines including the increasingly popular Simonvian Airways and the low-cost airline Air Calgary. The tourism industry in Chapeltown took a massive dip during the Oubanarian War and The Chapeltown Bombings but has now increased thanks to Simonvian Airways and Air Calgary.

Chapeltown Central, the main station has also undergone a much-needed upgrade. This is called the Chapeltown Central Environmental Upgrade. This included the Chapeltown Underground station.
