One of the earliest structures to be built was the factory building, with the first factory, a compactor being donated by [[Mount Augusta]], created by Mayor Ahrimanne in particular. Following this, Salisbury's train station was slowly dug underground around 20 metres from the quarry itself with the first completed rails to Bloom and Varkonia within this time period. This underground rail construction was overseen by Chancellor BritishWanderer who is also credited with the construction of the original Bakery, Storehouse and Mckinley gardens which were the projects built around the quarry and were the start of what we now know as Salisbury. The Bakery built at this time is the oldest building within the Chancellery of Gabon.

However due to budget constraints and a skilled labour shortage as of an outbreak of dysentery, only a brief foundation of the castle and a small meeting room was ever laid down and as such construction was ceased in late July at the dismay of the Queen.
As Queen
The construction of these two buildings set the tone and direction from which Salisbury would take while under the Monarchy, following to improve architecture and infrastructure under the policy of productivity for the local economy while the concerns of the local citizens were brushed aside. The roads during this time were constructed as medium sized 5 block wide, straight plain passages out of stone slabs built for the sole reason of passing wagons and large amount of citizenry, leaving no room for greenery or public spaces. These roads would make up the three main avenues of Salisbury as, Worchester Road, Balmoral Avenue and Warwick Drive.

Around this time, Salisbury's leading government ministers and monarchy especially that of
During August the initial productivity slowed down in Salisbury, with much of the Council taking up residence in neighbouring Varkonia to assist in policy due to their appointment as Varkonian Senators representing the Province of Gabon. This left Salisbury somewhat stagnant, with no buildings being constructed during this time. Although Councillor Gobblin was hard at work making blueprints of the suburb of Winchester, continuing on the construction of the surrounding areas of the concretery.

After being settled in and becoming an integral part of the Varkonian Senate, BritishWanderer, still Chancellor of Gabon returned home to Salisbury to continue to work on the city alongside Councillor Gobblin. It did not take long for numerous issues to arise, internally Salisbury was suffering deep neglect with royal duties being off-loaded onto the already over-encumbered Council of which half were inactive at the time. The peaceful green flag protests occurred during November, where much of the citizenry held up green banners on their person and blocked roadways and other crucial infrastructure, the protestors demanded an end to the royal tax and an overview of the current system of governance.
Chancellor BritishWanderer swiftly put an end to the royal tax by pushing through a successful council vote to abolish the controversial levy. The Queen,

'''Circa November 9th''']]After the quelling of the citizenry, Gobblin & BritishWanderer set about constructing and renovating current building projects within the centre of Salisbury. The underground portion of the train station was updated to a modern standard and granted the title of `''International''` by the Government of Varkonia. Homes were planned and built up around the central fountain in Salisbury with priority given to house councillors and active citizenry. Councillor Gobblin encouraged excavation of nearby areas in search of minerals, namely diamonds to fund the purchase of resources for Salisbury, while Chancellor BritishWanderer sought out those without a home from far and away to come to Salisbury and assist in construction and the start of a new era, most notably of all those who came as a result of this is ChrisFa99.
Her Majesty,
On the 9th of November The Queen branded her Chancellor and the fellow Councillors as traitors and declared a civil war in order to restore the absolute power of the monarchy and declared independence from Varkonia. Citizenry within Salisbury were split down the middle with regards to political support of either side, most of those residing in poorer sections of Salisbury supported the rebels led by BritishWanderer supported by [[Varkonia]] & [[Hjaltland]], while those living closest to Balmoral felt a deeper connection and inevitably supported the Monarchy. Her Majesty allowed the military forces of Gabon to commit what they must for a victory, who committed brash violence in small skirmishes throughout the city in alleyways and parks. Many sympathisers tried to hide from the loyalists however most were found, arrested or murdered in cold blood. Gabonese rebel forces led by BritishWanderer and a Varkonian Legion led by S4NTA entered Salisbury from the west in order to take back the city and put a swift end to the civil war.

''Districts, Suburbs and Divisions are used interchangeably when referring to the Capital boundaries between neighbouring areas.''
An independent assessment survey was conducted on the seven marked suburbs and districts within the capital city boundaries during the period of April to November 2019. This survey assessed the quality of education, housing and service facilities, additionally touching on the economical benefits and social aspects of individual residents.

Serving the residents of Melbourne with drink, food and a place to sleep is the aforementioned inn, the 'coughing swine'. A butchers, 'Paps Meat' is also within the vicinity, serving fresh cuts of meat from various animals for affordable prices. Although lacking in major industry, Melbourne is home to the Gabon Florist which produces 80% of Salisbury's output of grass and various flowers.

=== Winchester ===
'Jewel of Salisbury'. The administrative division of Winchester is approximately 122 metres crosswise with the highest point of the housing district standing at 20 metres above local ground level (70). There is a clear eye for detail within the suburb, with adequately wide inner pathways and sizable open spaces littered throughout. Great care has been taken to ensure the beauty of Winchester and it's boundary zone by the local district administrators, flora and fauna has been carefully manicured into a structured yet messy style which compliments the suburb nicely. Every building with exception of the central residence is detached from those around it with at least 3 metres of pathway or green spaces being the most common divider. Winchester is clearly the recipient of extra government funding compared to suburbs around it, boasting an Inn, a BnB, Cafe, School as amenities.

The community within Winchester is remarked to be snobbish, with residents carrying a 'holier than thou' attitude. It is notable to mention that a majority of residents (56%) support the restoration of the Monarchy. Inhabitants tend to avoid each other outside of organised gatherings such as street parties or national holidays, most families keep to themselves imposing strict schedules and curfews on their children which carries on to shape much of the adult residents of Winchester. Winchester boys are usually expected to follow in their father's footsteps, this is evidenced by nearly 55% of government employees being part of this generational work ethic. This however is not without criticism, many outside Winchester feel that it is improper to allow one such district to practically dictate Capital policy, efforts to combat this have been weak-willed at best with seemingly no change coming in the near future.
Expansion has been slow within the suburb, inhabitants are adamant that no further development should take place. The housing development of Pillypaddle lane took 4 months to debate and plan, with the plans eventually being taken to the highest court of Varkonia by residents in order to dispute the project, the courts ruled in favour of the development and as such it was constructed in late May 2019. This is not the only foray into development projects by the residents of Winchester, with inhabitants protesting and taking the government to court over the neighbouring suburb of Melbourne in order to have portions of it demolitioned due to the claim that it was 'unsightly'. The court case was settled outside of the courtroom with the government agreeing to construct unnatural tall and externally pretty looking buildings to effectively wall in the impoverished area of Melbourne, this solution pleased residents on the mainroad of Winchester and as such the situation has been left alone since.

==== Notable Buildings ====
The residents of Winchester have a varied selection of food & drink establishments with the immensely popular and posh Cafe Glorina, and the two alcohol serving businesses of The Red Lion Pub and the Royal Bed & Breakfast. However the most recognised Winchester building would have to be that of the Winchester Private School, responsible for the education of almost every single inhabitant of the suburb. The school is also the host of the Winchester Wolves, the hugely celebrated resident football team for the suburb with a current W-D-L ratio of 17-5-2 and a current win streak against the Hackey Hogs of 6. Although the district of the vital Gabon Concretery, most employees come from the neighbouring suburb of Hackney and as such is not an integral part of Winchester's local economy.
