Chichiltik

Chichiltik, also known as Tlenome-Tlahatl, or The Second Tlahatl, is the Capital and largest city of the Snydii Federation, a member state of the Confederation of Nandor. It is located on the Eastern Shore of the Tsar's Folly Peninsula, in the Province of Actiuh adjacent to the Phagosian Sea and Fort Tahat, a remnant of the Huitca Imperium.

It is one of two cities to hold the title of "Capital of the Huitca", alongside Tlahatl, and now serves as the political headquarters for the Snydii Legislature, the Senate, Embassies, as well as the Snydii Royal Family, led by the unbroken Tizoc Dynasty of Huitca. Due to these reasons, It remains the most culturally significant cities in the nation, and one of the most influential municipalities in the former Huitca Federation.

Name
The city's name Chichiltik comes from the old Huitca word Itlaninchichiltikuauitl, meaning Land of the Red Woods, referring to the once abundant Acacia Trees that dotted the land scape. These have all been subject to decay and deforestation under the rule of Herod and Ganeff, when the Tsar's Folly Peninsula was subject to the reign of Escharia.

Establishment
The city was founded on December 11th-12th of 2020 following Rex's Fernand's retreat from the city of Tlahatl during the Huitca Coup. It was intended to act as the new administrative centre for the (short-lived) Huitca Imperium, but following the coup's failure, the the status quo was restored within Huitca, with the capital returning to Tlahatl, causing the city to instead act as a historic site and military fortress for the Federation.

It would be reestablished by refugees of the Huitca and Pazist Diaspora following both nation's collapse in 2022.

Geography
The Downtown core of the city, directly next to Pickles Bay and the Phagosian Sea sits on a Redwood plain that spreads Northwest and covers much of the Nation. To the South and Southwest is the Chichilian Marshlands, which have been protected due to its unique species of Axolotl by having much of this part of the city built on stilts. Also in this part of the city, on a small peninsula jutting Southeast is the Fort Ganeffevia, the home of RedFireRex and the Palace of the Snydii Royal Family. To the North is Fort Tahat, built on Tahat Hill by Rex Fernand during the Huitca Coup. This area remains one of the two National Historic Sites of the Nation, and thus is off limits to development.

Districts
The city is a WIP and no formal districts besides Fort Ganeffevia have been designated.

Culture
The City's culture is heavily connected to that of Northern Ummarnu, rather than that of Syltor. Much of its population is made of first and second generation refugees from both Paz Firainya following the Bardonian Invasion, and the Zoquiyo-Bradecblight-Quia'jal region of the Republic of Centaris, who fled after Huitca's collapse, thus the local culture of the city hails many elements from both of these regions. However, both of these cultural groups hail from the same origin, making Chichiltik seen by some as a City of Confluence of the Jalic Cultures.

The Architecture of the city is largely inspired by that of the Zoquiyo Region in Centaris, but does take some elements from Ashura to the west.
