District IV name: Koningstad, maybe. It means "King Town". What were you thinking, Xahar?

I guess for the metro stations the central one could be Universiteitplein, "University Square." I'll think of the other two later.

I'm using the google dutch translator btw, so I don't know if I'm getting the names right.

It can also mean King's Town, which would make sense if it's an old university.

Yeah, that's what I was going for, actually, but I have no idea how Dutch does possessives and online translators kind of suck.

Koningstad

This ward, centered around the renowned Kolshaven Universiteit, has a mix of social groupings. The central area, dominated by the university itself, is predominantly inhabited by the students and employees of the K.U. and its five graduate schools.

The western and southern sections are mostly working class; the eastern section of Koningstad is more wealthy in comparison. There are also several notable developments along the riverfront.

Thanks especially to the student presence the area's politics is some of the most socially liberal in the city, though significant leftist economic beliefs are also present.

twenty districts, I like it! With a tie-breaking vote for the mayor and all, I guess.

question: should this District XX cut-up/placement be considerred part of the pre game setting up, or an in-game debate?

Transportation
Public Works (Catch all - also deals with the mundane, like refuse collection)
Planning and Development
Welfare and Housing
Business and Enterprise (working closely with Planning and Development)

Hmmm... I'll take the last three.

You only get two, silly soulty.
