In-Game Description[edit | edit source]
Formally incorporated in 1880 as part of the Meiji government's colonization and development of Hokkaidō, Sapporo represents a modern frontier of Japan not seen elsewhere on the Home Islands. A planned city from its inception, Sapporo's grid layout is unique among Japanese cities, centered around Odori Park, incorporating greenery into the center of the city. The deep winters of Hokkaidō have made Sapporo a focal point for a growing interest in arctic sports in Japan, and was selected to host the 1940 Winter Olympics before its cancellation by WWII - with the city likely to be nominated again in the near future.
