With a population of around 18.5 million, it is the largest city in El Kadsre and the one of the largest in the world. The city is located in West El Kadsre, in the south-west of the country. As New Edo, it was the capital city of New Japan and later Georgeland.

History[]
El Kadsre City was settled by the Tokugawans in 1818 as New Edo. At the time, the site of El Kadsre City was occupied by a few then-uncontacted Vicnoran tribes; the descendants of the Vicnoran tribes make up the majority of El Kadsre City's Vicnoran community. At the end of the 19th century, it became the largest city in New Japan (now El Kadsre, Mahri, Sentan and Taranotochi). In 1914, after the Sentanese Empire was established, the city was renamed to New Salta.
On July 14, 1875, New Edo was heavily stuck by a 7.6 magnitude earthquake. It was the most powerful earthquake in the city. Around two thirds of the buildings were destroyed and the whole city was rebuilt in the span of ten years.
On December 13, 1968, after Georgeland and El Kadsre were united into the Vlokozuian State of El Kadsre & Georgeland, New Edo was renamed to El Kadsre City.
On October 7, 2007, mayor T.K. Yang was assassinated following his re-election by a supporter of losing candidate Toby Aandahl at a charity event. Yang was a divisive mayor, with his plan to re-route air traffic to El Kadsre City International Airport over the residential suburbs turning out to be controversial. Yang's assassin, Peter Q. Emert, was sentenced to 20 years in prison.
In October 2017, the city was hit by a magnitude 7.1 earthquake.
