In-Game Description[edit | edit source]

Hermosillo is the capital and largest city of the state of Sonora. Originally three separate villages, Hermosillo wasn't declared a city until 1828, named after a general and established by decree. During the Mexican Revolution, forces loyal to Pancho Villa were ousted from the city. Following the assassination of Francisco Madero in 1913, Venustiano Carranza began his Constitutionalist Movement in Hermosillo, which led to the city being dubbed as "the revolutionary capital of the country." Hermosillo remains economically isolated from the rest of Mexico and the world at large, but its proximity to the Pacific and the American border has led to increasing interest from American and Japanese investors, who'll hopefully bring the city into the modern era.
