Hodo

Hodo (Japanese: 富都; Tomitoshi) (Chinese: 富都市; Fùdūshì; lit. City of Wealth) is the capital and the largest city of New Kasukabe state of YinYangia. The city has a population of 413,557, with 80% of the population of the city identifying themselves as ethnically Japanese.

It is YinYangia's most expensive city for expats, due to a large influx of goods imported from Japan.

Etymology
Hodo in YinYangiese means 'Place of the Rich', referring to the Japanese businessmen.

History
The city was established on the northwestern coast of the Gawudzan Republic by the Japanese immigrants in 1873. Many Japanese businessmen arrived there and heavily industrialized the area. The city was also heavily influenced by the Japanese.

The Gawudzan Government nicknamed Hodo as the Industrial Capital of the country. A large number of Han businessmen moved there. The city came under Toralaq control in 1936.

In 1937, the Toralaq Republic passed many laws which were said to discriminate against the Japanese minority living in the country.
