A Brief History Of Simonvia
Simonvia is a nation which has thrived over the many years since it was founded in 1650 by a man who later came to be Emperor Simon Gilson the 1st.

A recent example is the Oubanarian War which devastated the country when the capital city, Chapeltown, became another one of the Simonvian towns & cities attacked by rebel Oubanarians.

Though Simonvia resides in Trains are Great, other regions that Simonvia has been a part of include the now non-existent Weatherfield & TheConfederacy of Greatnations.
