New Tegea
A city of nearly 100.000 inhabitants at the border between the Michigan and the Indiana on the East banks of Lake Michigan. Founded by Greeks immigrants, the city had kept until today a strong Hellenistic tradition, but other communities call New Tegea, the Irish are the most notable.

For a long time, New Tegea lived mainly from fishing but developed a little shipping industry, making the docks the biggest hub of activity of the city. Like the neighbouring city of Chicago, Tegea was hit by an economic crisis after World War 2, but Chicago managed to become attractive again and with it, Tegea. Today the city is dynamic and who welcome several high-tech companies.

The Old District
The Old District is the historic centre of Tegea and a middle-class neighbourhood. Populated mainly by the descendants of the original Greek settlers, but a little Scandinavian community exist.
-Sunset Avenue: A shopping avenue on the coast and one of the favourite meeting spots of the inhabitants.
-Midgardr Square: A place where is located the only Aesir temple of New Tegea.

Olympus District
The part of the town build on Olympus Hill and overlooking the rest of New Tegea. It’s a wealthy district and housed until recently the city institutions.
-Olympus Temple: A large temple dedicated to the Theoi. Priests of each gods work here, accomplishing the rituals and giving counsel to people wanting divine help.

The Docks
The Docks were the industrial centre of New Tegea with fish manufactory and warehouses. The economic crisis left many of these buildings abandoned. Since the improvement of the situation in the city, a program has begun to repurpose these abandoned buildings.

Harris District
Born from the immigrant influx at the beginning of the last century, it became the poorest district with the economic crisis. Poverty gave rise to a number of gangs and even with the improvement of the situation many of them exist today (even if they are less overt). The population is varied but the biggest community are the Irish.
-Hagne Orphanage: The largest and most well-funded orphanage of the city.
-Perseus Park: A park just next door of the Hagne Orphanage.

Phoenix District
The newest district and the new economic centre of New Tegea. It houses several dynamic compagnies and the new city hall.

Neighbour
-Aval and Sterring: Two small towns neighbouring Tegea and serve mainly as sub-urban area for the middle-class and the wealthy.
-The Ogba hills: Is a hilly area South of Tegea, near Harris District. The Irish immigrants build three large standing stones here to honour their ancestors and since then, the presence of fae is a persistent rumour.
-The Marish Forest: Is located east of the city and house an Indian reserve on its edge. Many of the reserve’s inhabitant work in Tegea and the surrounding. The forest itself is known for a number of legends surrounding it and the number of disappearances.
