New Antioch is the administrative and spiritual center of the Militocracy, a sprawling fortress-city built on structure, service, and sacred law. With a population in the hundreds of thousands, it serves as the seat of the Church Militant, the registry of the Proven, and the cultural heart of the eastern mainland.

The city is divided into well-regulated districts, each tied to a core civic function. The Bastion of Flame houses the High Synod and the national archive of oaths. The Smithward produces arms and armor for the legions. The Lucent Quarter trains clerics, inquisitors, and census-keepers. Public works are clean, tightly scheduled, and open to all who follow the law.

Citizenship in New Antioch must be earned through military, civil, or spiritual service. Those who complete their term are recorded in the Roll of the Proven a sacred document maintained in every parish and government fortress. Voting, property rights, and leadership roles are restricted to the Proven, but all residents benefit from safety, education, and stability.

Visitors are expected to show respect in holy sites and follow local order codes. Sermons, oath ceremonies, and memorial processions are open to the public. Non-citizens may not speak in council halls or bear arms within the inner ring, but are otherwise free to conduct trade and travel.

New Antioch is not a city of leisure but it is a city that endures. It remembers what the world has forgotten. And it was built to last.
