Porterdam
History
The City of Porterdam was established when it was apart of Colonial-Era Segasaturn in 1908 to allow France to coordinate shipping throughout south-eastern Segasaturn. After Segasaturn won its Independence in 1978, the popluation grew and exploded, making it the country's third largest Port.
After the Great Segasaturnian Anarchist Revolution in 1992, It became the Porterdam Commune, and it was of the Anarchist Commune's main commercial centers. But after New Ronin recieved its independence in early 2004, neighboring Porterdam City and suburban area next to it became displeased with Segasaturn. As a result, Porterdam seceded from the Anarchist Communes of Segasaturn on August, 28, 2004 as the Republic of Porterdam.
During the Two-Week Revolution in neighboring New Ronin, Porterdam decided to join The People's Republic to aid Anarchist Revolutionaries and for self sufficiency. It became a City of New Ronin on September, 2, 2004. It joined along with the suburban area, making New Ronin 30% times larger.
Currently, it is the largest city in the People's Commune of New Ronin, with a popluation of nearly 194 Million. It is also that nation's largest port.
