'''Natlia''' (/nat.li.a/, [[Lithian]]: <small>{{cs|LHN|natlА}}</small> ''Natlia'') is a capital and the most populous city located at the southern region of [[Lugida]], at the [[Nagidan]] metropolitan state whose urban agglomeration is one of the largest on Sahar with the population of around 24 million.
'''Natlia''' ({{small|[[Lithian]]:}} [natli.a]) is the capital and the most populous city of [[Lugida]], being located partly on Cape () and on the [[Mount Lenthir|Lenthiri]] mountainside. Natlia is part of the [[Nagidan]] metropolitan area, whose urban agglomeration of 24 million people is one of the largest on Sahar.


Natlia's history can be traced back to the [[Letsatian Empire]] period, when it was constructed. The city then later grew to become one of Sahar's trading hubs, culminating as the chief capital of the Four Swords from the 14th century. However, Natlia went a period of decline following the fall of the Four Swords on 1731, and has suffered extensive damages from the [[Great Ekuosian War]]. The city later recovered and grew rapidly following the war.
Natlia was initially built as a fishing settlement, and was expanded into a city during [[Letsatian Empire|Letsatian rule]]. Through extensive silver mining on the mineral-rich mountainside, Natlia grew quickly to become one of Lugida's trade centers, with its historical zenith during the [[Four Swords]] period. The city went a period of economic decline following the dissolution of the Four Swords on 1731, and has suffered extensive damages from the [[Great Ekuosian War]]. The city later recovered and grew rapidly following the war.


Today, Natlia is a global city, with the largest metropolitan economy in [[Soltenna]], which has grown rapidly following the Lugid economic boom in the mid to late 20th century which contributed to the metropolitan area's large GDP of around $1 trillion. Natlia boasts as one of the leading technology, cultural, and tourism hubs of Sahar, being the headquarters of Lugid companies such as [[Wilith]] and [[Mitsetale]], as well as the home to Lugida's modern cultural icons, [[Peace Seeker|Dinel]] and [[L-pop]].

==Etymology==
The modern-day name, Natlia, comes from the [[Lithian]] words, Natlan "Sun" and Fia "of", which literally translates to "of the Sun". This name became the subject of metaphors, in which the name may indirectly mean either "the rising sun" or "the city of the sun". The meaning of "the rising sun" is the most publicly accepted alternate meaning of the "Natlia" name.
''Natlia'' comes from the [[Lithian]] words ''natlan'' "Sun" and the derivational ''fia'' "of", literally meaning "of the Sun". This name has become the subject of multiple metaphors due to its vague direct meaning. Public consensus prefer the meaning "the rising sun" for Natlia, while other meanings such as "the city of the sun" is also used but are rare outside literary contexts.

==Culture==
Natlia is one of the cities in Lugida whose primary cultural influence is [[Letsatian Empire|Letsatian]], instead of the traditional Lugid culture, which contains some degrees of [[Qonklaks|Qonklese]] influence. This is evident from the mainly-Letsatian architectural style of Natlia's old buildings, especially those from before 6th century CE, followed by the high presence of historical [[Iovism|Iovist]] and the later [[Avism|Avic]] temples within the city.
Natlia is historically known for its art, such as paintings and pottery, particularly during the time of the Four Swords from the 14th to 18th century CE. Much of Natlian art at the time pertains to Avism, [[Mount Lenthir]], and folktales from around the world. In the 1970s, Natlian art starts to diverge into many different artistic styles, as Natlian pop culture flourished as the result of Lugida's Natlia-centralized massive urbanization, industrialization, and post-war rebuilding.
The massive change in the Natlian lifestyle and culture during the post-war rebuilding, followed by the city's rather high civil liberties, turned the city into one of Sahar's prominent centers of pop culture, with the city being the origin of various Lugid world-renowned icons, such as the video gaming icon, [[Peace Seeker|Dinel]], and the musical icon, [[L-pop]].

Natlia's massive economic growth began from the 1960s, when Lugida is recovering itself from the damages of the [[Great Ekuosian War]]. Rebuilding was centralized in Natlia, as large companies moved its headquarters into Natlia to take advantage of the better access to the government. This was followed by the implementation of Lugida's export-oriented economy and the construction of massive government-sponsored infrastructure projects, such as the Port of Natlia, in an effort to accommodate the economic growth and "reinstate Lugida's historical position as the world center of trade".
Natlia experienced a rapid rebuilding and economic growth from the 1960s, after sustaining severe damages from the [[Great Ekuosian War]]. Centralization of economic growth to Natlia caused large Lugid companies to move to the city in order to take advantage of the city's better access to the government.

This massive economic growth of Natlia made the city an emerging international financial center from the late 1960s. This prominence continued even with the emergence of competing financial centers in Soltenna such as [[Bosato]] and [[Cuáma]], although the Natlian and Lugid economy in general was partially severed during the economic downfalls in 1979 and 2005. However, given the high cost of living and population in the Nagidan area, this economic growth is slowing down, and other Lugid cities, particularly [[Kirni]] and [[Dalshabet]], began to replace Natlia's position in Lugida's prominent metropolitan economic growth.
The city's economic growth is challenged by increasing living costs, population density, and high real estate prices, thus inviting economic competition by other Lugid cities like [[Kirni]] and [[Dalshabet]].

Economy

Natlia is the business and financial hub of Lugida. Despite having only around 0.1 percent of Lugida's land area, Natlia and its metropolitan area contributes to almost half of Lugida's nominal GDP. Service sector accounts for half of Natlian economy.

Natlia experienced a rapid rebuilding and economic growth from the 1960s, after sustaining severe damages from the Great Ekuosian War. Centralization of economic growth to Natlia caused large Lugid companies to move to the city in order to take advantage of the city's better access to the government. Through centralization and Lugida's export-oriented economy, Natlia later went on to become Soltenna's international financial center since the late 1960s amidst competition with other Soltennan cities such as Bosato and Cuáma.

The city's economic growth is challenged by increasing living costs, population density, and high real estate prices, thus inviting economic competition by other Lugid cities like Kirni and Dalshabet.
