Creighton is the principal city of the Creighton-Orford Beach-Arbuthnot City metropolitan statistical area, which is the fifth-largest urban area in the U.S. state of Altamasstachia. The Creighton metropolitan area boasts a total population of 942,577 according to the 2021 estimate from the U.S. Census Bureau.

Creighton was founded in 1812, but like San Gerardo Bravo to the northwest, was never more than a small regional outpost known for its fishing industry until the mid to late 19th century. Trade between the United States and other nations including the United Kingdom (particularly between Altamasstachia and other American ports on the continental mainland and Mallettbarr, a Crown Dependency of the British from 1733-1926, an Australian-administered territory from 1926-1928, a U.S. territory from 1928-1938 and a U.S. state since 1938) helped to gradually build Creighton's economy as one dominated by retail trade, especially along the Pan-Pacific trade routes. In the 20th century, as the United States eventually acquired the previously British territory of Mallettbarr from Australia in 1928 (which eventually became a U.S. state ten years later) and with the advent of automobiles and the highways across Altamasstachia and the rest of the United States offering long-distance commuters a helping hand, Creighton would boom in population in the years after World War II. Today, Creighton is a major port city on the Arbuthnot Coast and is known for the Port of Creighton (the fourth busiest in Altamasstachia), and the Creighton-Newmarket Fellows Ferry which takes commuters across the Sea of Orr (marked on the map as the Pacific Ocean) between the U.S. states of Altamasstachia and Mallettbarr, and it takes about seven and a half hours to complete a one-way trip from Creighton, AT to Newmarket Fellows, ML. Creighton is the headquarters of retail firm Lester MacGuffin as well as three Fortune 500 private firms. Creighton is also a nerve center of specialty automotive industries that convert left-hand drive (LHD) vehicles to right-hand drive (RHD) for export to Mallettbarr, as Mallettbarr drives on the left side of the road (and likewise convert RHD vehicles to LHD vehicles). The Creighton metropolitan area is served by Altamasstachia State Freeway Routes 2 and 17 as well as State Freeway Routes 102, 302 and 502, and Creighton Regional Airport is located in Northeastwood. Creighton is home to the University of Altamasstachia, Creighton (home of the Aces), and in professional sports, plays host to the Creighton Lancers of the Altamasstachia Bowling Federation, the Creighton Ospreys of the Altamasstachia Baseball League, the Creighton Valkyries of the Altamasstachia All-Pro Football League, the Creighton Surge of the Altamasstachia Basketball League and the Creighton Thunderbolts of the Altamasstachia Hockey League. A gateway to Southern Altamasstachia for those taking the ferry from Mallettbarr to the south, and certainly the nicer side of the Sea of Orr. Creighton may not be the most important port city in the state, but they're giving it their all to remain one of Altamasstachia's most relevant destinations, and they have a sunny outlook.

The city of Creighton is divided into 12 distinct neighborhoods. Listed in alphabetical order: Acipco Ridge, Brookings, Cape Langlois, Cupaiwac Park, Downtown Creighton, Dundley Beach, Ivesdale, Monkbridge Cresta, Orrview, Poinciana Key, Radio Mound, Walrose

Regions of Zeconnemeleth

  A map of the four geographic regions of the U.S. state of Zeconnemeleth (click to enlarge). For political, economical and cultural reasons, there are 4 regions in the U.S. state of Zeconnemeleth, which are not necessarily geographically distinct from one another. These four regions were originally drawn up as the three original counties of the Protectorate of Zeconnemeleth, North Carolina which lasted from the jurisdiction's establishment in 1779 to 1861, when Zeconnemeleth seceded from North Carolina and became a federal territory the following year in 1862 and from that point the three counties were gradually broken up into the 56 counties of today. The original three counties of the Protectorate of Zeconnemeleth - Northern Zeconnemeleth, Central Zeconnemeleth and Southern Zeconnemeleth - were subsequently divided into the current 56 counties between 1862 and 1926 and are now considered regions by the Zeconnemeleth state government with Central Zeconnemeleth split into North Ce...

"Mallettbarr Plainess" - A Summary of Mallettbarr Culture and Defining Characteristics

Mallettbarr isn't called the Prudence State because of the implication that its residents are humble, low-key and are extremely disinclined to stand out from one another – Mallettbarrites are socially prudent, tend to be largely ignorant of the world outside their own physical constitutions, and are unwavering (indeed, the state's motto). Anti-social, curt, brusque, abrasive, provincial, grumpy, aloof, cold, distant, insecure, self-defensive and standoffish are not words you'd expect to describe someone from a place that's in between Altamasstachia and Hawaii, but these stereotypes are accurate and appropriate given their love of living pure, unadulterated country life and in solitude, nature, hunting, fishing, hiking and football and a quiet contempt for anything else. Where a whisper is a yell, Mallettbarrites are a hard, difficult people who live simply and deliberately.  After all, "Mallettbarr Plainess", the term often used to describe the reclusive natur...

Things Only People From Altamasstachia Understand

Image
It may be true that each state is unique in their own way, but Altamasstachia truly isn't like all the other states in America! Here in the Bayflower State, we Altamasstachians take extreme pride in our ways of life, our traditions and our oddities and quirks that define our homeland as we continue to embrace our future together, from Olympia to San Gerardo Bravo to Heston to St. Ann to Foxbridge and to New Scotland. While there's always something for everyone in Altamasstachia whether you're north or south of the Clapton Line, there's always going to be our own unique eccentricities only we Bayflower folk can understand. Altamasstachians Measure Travel In Counties.   Lee County is just one of Altamasstachia's seemingly endless counties. And trust us, each county has something for everyone. With the possible exception of Midway County. You may as well get used to seeing lots of these signs travelling on the road in this state. Altamasstachia has 550 counties, which ...
