Sapphopolis lies on a small bay on a small island. It is a tranquil city, within its rings of defenses. Sapphopolians prefer technology to be as unobtrusive as possible, giving the appearance of a pre-technological lifestyle, while maintaining most of the benefits of technology. The city is criss-crossed with canals, and gondolas or walking are the primary forms of personal transportation. This pre-tech aesthetic is one of the city's more notable features, and there is a small market in other cosmopoli among people that appreciate the aesthetic, or find themselves in need of a piece of tech that hides its true nature. | Sapphopolis lies on a small bay on a small island.

Shops, homes, offices, small gardens, parks, and other services are jumbled together throughout the city without much rhyme or reason. Heavy industry, and large facilities like hospitals, are located out of sight beneath the city, or under the surrounding hills. The main shipping and air port is outside the city, on the other side of the hills, so as to not disturb the tranquility of the city. | Shops, homes, offices, small gardens, parks, and other services are jumbled together throughout the city without much rhyme or reason.

− | While technically Sapphopolis is under the absolute rule of the Archon, this is a prerogative that Archons of Sapphopolis have not traditionally exercised, except in times of emergency or crisis. In practice, there is the Council of Advisors, made up of a mix of elected and appointed members, selected from the Many. The Council drafts laws, develops policies, and recommends judges for the Archon's approval, which, most of the time, is automatically granted. The Archon and the Archon's household implement the policies and serve as the bureaucracy of city. Under Bastelle, the Archon's household is lead by her first wife, who she appointed Governor of Sapphopolis in her name. Other wives head up the security and other services. Not every person with a position of authority within Bastelle's household is her wife, but the majority are. | + | While technically Sapphopolis is under the absolute rule of the Archon, this is a prerogative that Archons of Sapphopolis have not traditionally exercised, except in times of emergency or crisis.

Cats, even before Bastelle, are highly regarded within the city, as the sacred animal of Saint Sappho, and cat iconography can be found on most buildings in the city. Cats themselves can be found everywhere in the city. | Cats, even before Bastelle, are highly regarded within the city, as the sacred animal of Saint Sappho, and cat iconography can be found on most buildings in the city.

Men are not formally excluded, and some have chosen to live in Sapphopolis, been born in the city, or married in to the city, but they are a minority. Some of the men of Sapphopolis adopt more feminine styles, so as to not stand out as much, while others emphasize their masculinity. Though of course the women of the city are hardly universally feminine either, and many of them also choose to emphasize their masculinity. For some reason, perhaps some forgotten sacritech, nearly 75% of the children born in Sapphopolis are female. | Men are not formally excluded, and some have chosen to live in Sapphopolis, been born in the city, or married in to the city, but they are a minority.
