Callentown

Callentown City (Chinese: 卡蓮市) is the capital and largest city of Sandao, Tseng. It's considered to be the centre of Spanish culture in Tseng.

History
Callentown was founded in 1753 by Spanish traders as Puebla Tortuga (Turtle Town), after the turtles that lived there. It became the capital of Spanish Sanjiao that same year.

In 1755 Spain handed Sanjiao Island to Britain, and Puebla Tortuga was renamed its current Callentown, after Edward C. Callen, a priest. However, it became part of the French colony of Tseng in 1778.

Callentown was renamed Karen and became the seat of government of Sanshima Prefecture while Tseng was under Japanese control in 1938. After the Japanese left however, many Callentown residents left the city, which was compounded by Sandao Premier Adam Luo's repressive rule, and in 1950 the city was downgraded to a town.

It wasn't until the 1970s and 80s that Callentown sprang up again. With the Wanxia Miracle, many people came to Tseng for work. Callentown was a popular city for Spanish and Latin American workers, and in 1984, when Sandao State was created, the town was upgraded to a city, and became the capital of the new state.

Geography
Callentown is located on the northern end of Sanjiao Island. The city is divided into two unofficial parts, the New District, and the Old District. The New District was developed in the mid 1980s and is full of skyscrapers and shops. The Old District is the historical part of the city. Many Spanish and English-style houses are located here.

Transportation
Callentown International Airport serves the city by air. Highway A7 is the city's highway.
