Cities[edit | edit source]

Cadia[edit | edit source]

The City of Cadia is a Trade City on the planet Ilius, led by Vortexion. It is a large city, with the distinctive feature that the entire city is situated on a series of floating platforms, positioned above Lake Peigneur. These platforms include a large, central trade platform (which hosts the city's importer, exporter, and bazaar), three residential platforms, three shipyard platforms, and several assorted others.
Cadia is the closest city on the server to Spawn, and as such serves as a frequent tourism and business destination for new players. The city offers free housing at the residential platforms, including to non-residents.

Setra Maria[edit | edit source]

The City of Setra Maria is a city on the planet Chimgara, led by the sitting Cortesian President. It is the legal capital of Cortesia Del Mar, with a distinctive dense urban building style. Its distinctive structures include the National Forum building, the Interior Ministry building, the server's oldest hockey rink, and the Setra Maria homeless encampment. Pursuant to its status as the capital, Setra Maria guarantees admission to all residents and citizens of Cortesia Del Mar.
Setra Maria is connected by both iceroad and item pipe to the Woolworths Production Complex, and as such serves as the port for Cortesia's industrial activity.

The Anthill[edit | edit source]

The Anthill is a combination city and artistic project on the planet Aret, led by Consue. It is a large, intricate mega-build mixing Arabian and cyberpunk build themes, which serves as an indefinite artistic project for its participants. The Anthill is wrapped around a central trade tower, which is built out of several thousand aluminum blocks.
Admission to the Anthill project comes with complementary build tutoring by Consue.

Additional Settlements[edit | edit source]

Woolworths[edit | edit source]

Woolworths is a land claim housing the Woolworths Production Complex, which is the server's largest industrial complex. It sits roughly one kilometer east of Setra Maria, and is connected to it by iceroad. The Woolworths Production Complex itself is off-limits to non-allies of Cortesia Del Mar, or those who have not been specifically granted access.

Stations[edit | edit source]

Elysium[edit | edit source]

Elysium is a small space station in northwestern Regulus, owned by the settlement Cadia and built by Vortexion. It is the server's oldest space station, and during the server's first months served as an important base of operations for the nation of Arimfea. As of the present, Elysium is disused, and is preserved by Cadia as an historical site.

Fortitude[edit | edit source]

Fortitude is a medium space station in northern Regulus, owned by the settlement Cadia and built by Vortexion. Its structure consists of two protruding docking arms to its east and west, affixed to a central living hub. Fortitude has a working redstone casino, a domed grassy park, and a large wall of player heads obtained in Arimfea's wars.
Like Elysium, Fortitude was also formerly an Arimfean station, and served as a crucial center of activity for the nation until the Horizon Federation-RentDueYesterday War. It is still in use by Cortesia Del Mar.

Seraph[edit | edit source]

Seraph is a large space station in southern Sirius, owned by the settlement Cadia and built by Vortexion and nungal. It is primarily an aesthetic build, with extensively decorated interiors spanning the full height of its mostly-vertical structure. Positioned inside of Seraph's main hall is the a captured Vegan gunship once used by ClownPierce, whose death sparked the Alliance of Regulus-Vega War of 2023.

Politics[edit | edit source]

Cortesia Del Mar's system of government is distinguished by its depth and complexity. The nation, which titles itself "The Republic of Cortesia Del Mar", is governed by a presidential republican political system, the form of which is set out in the Constitution of Cortesia Del Mar, a legal document which is over 100 pages long.

The national government of Cortesia Del Mar consists of the following bodies:

The President and Vice President, who are elected together on a four-month cycle every February, June, and October,*
The Cabinet, a body of specialized Ministers consisting of the President, the Vice President, and the Ministers of Security, Foreign Affairs, and the Interior, who are appointed by the President and have varying specific duties,
The National Forum, a general legislative body whose members are elected individually for indefinite terms, which is empowered to pass laws within the nation, and
The Supreme Court, a judicial body empowered to decide civil and criminal court cases, and to review the constitutionality of laws, elected on a four-month cycle every April, and August, and December.
