New Dorasterrock

New Dorasterrock is a large city in northwestern Bardonia, where it serves as the Bardonian state capital. The city is famous for its various battles and geopolitical events that have historically occurred there, chiefly among them the Battle of New Dorasterrock during the War of Southern Aggression. Due to its large size and influence over the world as a political entity, the city has garnered a reputation as the capital of Bardonia, taking pride in its place as the capital.

Etymology
New Dorasterrock's name is derived from the city of Dorasterrock or 'old Dorasterrock', located in Bardonia's east. Dorasterrock is derived from the prefix dor-, meaning 'new' in the old Dorasterrock civilization's language, and Asterrock, an ancient Jagdasian city-state once part of the old Cobalt Concord named after one Aster's Rock. The name New Dorasterrock therefore technically means "New New Aster's Rock".

The city's tagline of "Once the Capital of the World" harkens back to previous Bardonian states, but in particular the Third Empire- when Bardonia was at its greatest extent.

Political Geography
The city of New Dorasterrock is the capital of the Bardonian Soldiers' Republic. It lays on the Ryzani border not far from the city of Carthya. It has served as the capital of the various Bardonian states since at least the Second Empire.

Physical Geography & Climate
The city is located between the East River and Flumenian River on the East Syltör Plain, a large area of temperate grasslands and open deciduous forests in east-central Syltör, and thus experiences a mild climate year-round. It receives snow in the winter, with temperatures averaging between -10 and -5 degrees Celsius; however, its summers are warm, around 30 degrees Celsius. To the city's south lie the Solanarian Mountains, a mountain range separating the Bardonian core territories from the Solanaria region.
