2. Pompeii-Herculaneum. Pompeii-Herculaneum, long an important
port for Greeks, Romans and Etruscans alike, is a bustling commercial
hub. It has also become the go-to landing for wealthy Romans.
But that's not all! Pompeii-Herculaneum
supports a thriving agriculture and provides a panoramic view of scenic
Mount Vesuvius!
1. Atlantis. Located in the Mediterranean-Atlantean sweet spot,
Atlantis is the high-tech and energy capital of the modern* world.
Atlantis has a mild, subtropical climate that attracts refugees
from the colder northern climes. With a bubbling economy,
Atlantis is a veritable hive of human industry with a highly educated,
energetic, and growing work
force. The picturesque and abundant coastline is an additional
attraction, and not any kind of risk of inundation at all. No
matter what those pessimistic gloomy climatological Gusses say.

The US Census Bureau declares the
Houston suburb of Conroe, pre-Harvey, to be the fastest-growing city in
the US of A.
