Progress Tower
Arguably the most famous and iconic monument in the People's Democratic Social Republic of Ariddia, Progress Tower is located in the capital city, Rêvane.
It is a tall, black metal-and-stone building, topped by a large, eternal flame protected by a transparent casing. The Tower is filled with empty rooms, and only the lower-most levels are ever used, to house and feed those in need. Today, with housing guarenteed to all, Progress Tower is rarely used at all, and exists mainly as a monument for tourists to take photographs of.
It is rivalled as an icon of Rêvane by another building, Harmonia.
