= Solis = |
|||
Solis was the original capital city of SPQR, the Roman-themed faction of Civcraft. Located at the gateway to the Metropolis region, it is a large city divided into several distinct districts. Once the population center of the S.P.Q.R. and Metropolis, Solis is now effectively abandoned. |
|||
= History = |
|||
At the start of Civcraft 2.0, SPQR founded Solis as its capital in the [http://civcraft.org/doku.php/factions/metropolis Metropolis] region. The city achieved a good amount of growth and stability for several months, however in early October the city's fortunes turned for the worse during a period of political turmoil. This resulted in a large splintering of the population. Following the city's abandonment it was heavily griefed, and remains waiting to be restored to its former glory. |
|||
SPQR has since moved to a new capital, [https://civcraft.org/doku.php/cities2/roma Roma]. |

= Landmarks and Surroundings = |
|||
'''The Villa Publica'''[[File:/cities2/villapublica1.jpg|300px|class=align-right]] |
|||
The ''Villa Publica'', also called the Censor's Office, is a large 4 story structure in the Forum District. It is the official headquarters for the city's two Censors; the two magistrates who oversee immigration, the census, and elections. It was in this building that ballots were dropped off via secure hoppers during elections, and where the archives are stored. This building is 95% complete. |
|||
Historical Note: In ancient Rome, the ''Villa Publica'' was a structure located on the Campus Martius (Just outside the city in republican times). The Censors used this building as the headquarters to conduct the Census, which happened every 5 years. |
|||
'''The Emporium''' |
|||
The Emporium is the newly commissioned storehouse for the city's bulk supplies. After months of using a recommissioned NPC village house as the faction's main storehouse, a new storehouse was needed and recently completed. 100% complete. |
|||
Historical Note: The Emporium was a large warehouse structure on the banks of the Tiber River in Rome. It housed many things, but in particular it housed the city's reserve grain supply. |

|||
'''The Temple of Saturn'''[[File:/cities2/templesaturn1.jpg|300px|class=align-right]] |
|||
The Temple of Saturn is the first full Roman Temple to be built in Solis. Built in traditional Roman fashion, the inside remains unfurnished for the time being. Even though the main structure is complete, the Temple as a whole is only about 85% complete. |
|||
Historical Note: In Ancient Rome, the Temple of Saturn was the official location of the state treasury. |
|||
'''The Colosseum''' |
|||
The Colosseum is the newest build project in Solis. It will resemble the Roman Coliseum Colosseum when completed, a centerpiece of the Arena District and the venue for many Civcraft Events. 1% complete. |
|||
Historical Note: There were many arenas throughout Rome's history, but the largest and most famous was The Colesseum. It could seat 90,000 spectators and was the location of many games. At one point it even hosted a mock naval battle. For anything else, see the movie Gladiator. |
|||

|||
'''The Senate of SPQR''' |
|||
When complete it will be one of the largest buildings in the city, and the server. The structure will feature a large central rotunda, which is the Senate 'well', (The foundation for the well and Senate Chamber, as well as the outline of the Senate Chamber Wall is what can be seen so far). The Senate Chamber will be surrounded by a large foyer supporter by tall grand columns. The Foyer will have entrances on all four sides. 01.00% complete |
|||
Historical Note: This structure is a draw from several influences, and it does not resemble an Ancient Roman Senate building in the least. |
