Santo André

Santo André is the capital and largest city of Jungastia. With a metropolitan population of just over 11 million, it is one of the largest metropolitan areas in the Pearl Sea region and a major international political, cultural, and economic centre. Santo Andre is also the administrative capital of the Ribeirão Region and is the seat of a devolved assembly covering the entire Metropolitan area.

Santo André is also the home of the Maredoratic Health Organisation and the Maredoratic Universal Postal Organisation, both bodies of the Maredoratic League. The city is also home to Petrostado, Linhas Aéreas Intercontinentais Jungastiana, and other major companies.

History
Definitive records and artefacts show that Santo André has been continuously inhabited since 600AD, but speculative evidence has also pointed to a possible earlier date of 144AD. The current city developed in the roughly three hundred years prior to Jungastian Unification in 1420.

In 943, the first rudimentary map of the city was produced in line with the completion of the Justinian Fort and the fortification of the city. It survives as the earliest tangible evidence of the habitation of the area. The development of the city was in line with other cities on the bay such as Pietrsdam, and the focus on the wealth and bounty that was provided by the warm sheltered waters of the bay.
