History

OwainX, the founder and current Governor of Babbage previously governed the autonomous city of Freeport within Acadia on CivUniverse. When Acadia decided to migrate to CivClassics OwainX journeyed to the new claim creating a camp in what is now Kanava. When Acadia officially moved and a site was selected for the capital, New Turing, the site for Lovelace, along the Lovelace river on the northern border with Mir was selected and work began.

The first major project in Babbage was the creation of the Lovelace Canal linking the Lovelace River and Lake Elizabeth and allowing for easy travel between the two cities.
