Apollo City, Apoltopoli or Apollonium in Audente, in the past called Airosamente, is the current capital of the Baronial Empire of Sermolot in Kildare and on its way to become once again a major city. Even with the major disasters that struck the city, like war, diseases and the lifting in and falling back from the sky, the city survived. For long it was just a shadow of its former self. But the government is rebuilding the city, so it will bring the good times back to the lands of Audentior.

History

The city is now called Apollo City, but before the reattachment of city on the mainland, it was called Airosamente.

Airosamente was founded a little bit after the Great Merge between the four provinces as the new capital of Audentior. The main builder were Tapferites, since, after all, it was on their soil. You can see the fact that the buildings look more Tapferite than Audente. It grew quickly, and it was a feat of engineering for its time. The Egalitarian Tower was, until it collapsed together with the other buildings, the largest building in the sector.

It took quite a lot of time and effort to complete Airosamente. When it was done, it became a city wonderful enough to rival Apolyton City, the first and largest city in the Apollo Sector. Airosamente took its name from Audentior in a way; Audentior means "More Brave" in Latin, and Airosamente means "Brave" in Spanish.

When Tapfer seceded, Airosamente seceded with Tapfer. The rest of Audentior was in ruins; with the loss of its capital, it never became as glorious as the old Tetrapole Era Audentior. Airosamente was originally a sea island; When Tapfer was merged, Airosamente and New Long Island lifted up in the air and became two more flying islands in the Flying Islands of Jasonia.

Before the collapse of Jasonia, the population reached around 4 million citizens, but after the collapse of Jasonia that number of citizens reduced quickly.

In 3354 ASC the lands of Audentior were attached to the Imperial Republic of Shireroth. In 3585 ASC, Baron Jonas of Antya decided to dissolve his barony and replace it by a new barony, with Apollo City as capital.
