Tokyo

Tokyo, officially Tokyo Metropolis, is the capital of Japan, member of the Sino-Federation, a United Earth member nation, and the largest metropolitan area in the world. It is the seat of the Japanese government and the Imperial Palace, and the home of the Japanese Imperial Family.

Tokyo is in the Kantō region on the southeastern side of the main island Honshu and includes the Izu Islands and Ogasawara Islands.

Tokyo Metropolis was formed in 1943 from the merger of the former Tokyo Prefecture and the city of Tokyo. The population is over 38-million people.

Tokyo was hit hard when the August Wave, created by the Xindi First Strike , struck the city during high tide. While much of the population had ample time to evacuate, the metropolis was decimated by a 175-meter high wave and still continues to rebuild.
