Hekatonschoinos is the capital world of the Church of Alexandros. It is currently underdeveloped, and most residents are either the followers of the new religion or immigrants seeking work.

Hekatonschoinos, despite the relative underdevelopment and underpopulation, has scores of opportunities for work, featuring infrastructures for work in all fields of careers, as well as multiple shops and merchant work. The major force in the neighborhood is the supposed creators of the landmass and certain founders of the new city, the Union of the Insane in which Kallisto is a part of, and despite its split to maintain their hold over their old domain at Sunset Valley, Union of the Insane remains the most powerful household in Hekatonschoinos. Most houses available are largely middle class dwellings, and land is plentiful in the region.

Mass Immigration

However, it was only a matter of time before sims were attracted to the once isolated neighborhood like moth to the flames: jobs were plentiful, the place was fairly large and countrylike rather than suburban, and the buff established by the rumors around its creation led to some immigration just for curiosity. The "Attike" style house were quite readily available from the beginning, and Kallisto and the others also went around building more houses, thus a ready availability of housing and low prices due to underpopulation inevitably led to mass immigration.

Trivia

  • Schoinos means rope, and the plural form is Schoinoi. The region in Ptolemaic Egypt named Triakontaschoinos, meaning 30 ropes, is the basis for the name, and hence the usage of the singular form schoinos at the ending rather than schoinoi. This is because numbers above 3 does not have inflections. The name might be unfitting, since Hekatonschoinos imply that is is much larger than the region, as Hekaton means 100. However, since Schoinos does not have an exact measure (the unit historically varied between region), the name might make sense if the unit was drastically smaller, sinice Hekatonschoinos is a large city at best, Triakontaschoinos an entire region.
