East Bank City

East Bank City, sometimes referred to as East Bank Town, mostly by the locals, is the largest city in the Antarctic Peninsula. The city also has the second largest economy in the Antarctic Peninsula due to its location on SABER and being home to a few companies, and is often called the "Big Coin" to indicate its wealth. It is located on the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula, south of the city of EmotiVille, and East Bank City is the county seat of Waffle County. For a few years, East Bank City was one of the fastest growing cities in the United States of Antarctica.

Background
A settlement has existed at East Bank City since at least the middle ages, although for most of history it was a small village that mostly relied off of fishing. In the mid to late 1900s, East Bank Town as it was called back then, began to grow significantly in population due to the amount of people moving out of the major cities in the Peninsula such as Aurelia and Shiverpool. According to an estimate in 1990, East Bank Town had a population of 324,610, an increase from around 46,493 in 1940, which made it one of the largest cities in the Antarctic Peninsula.

CatZip888 became mayor of the city in 2006, and he wanted the place to become very well known, so he began advertising the small city as an ideal place for many to settle. Many penguins, seeing the advertisements and how it was inexpensive to settle there, came to the area to settle down, with many opening up their own small businesses as well. CatZip needed money to spend on the city, so he had to put a large tax on the inhabitants of the city, which made him and the city government unpopular, so the residents protested against the high taxes.

In response to this, Mayor CatZip hired Advisor Advisle, as he wanted other ideas to gain money for the city. Advisle recommended him to reduce the taxes, and told him to invest the money gained from the previous taxes to the bolstering the image of the city. This worked, as the protests stopped and more people moved to the city, wanting to earn more money. They established companies, businesses, and the city became one of the fastest growing cities in Antarctica, growing to a population of about 3.5 million by 2019, and East Bank City became the county seat of Waffle County.
