Sen Yaneta

Sen Yaneta is a coastal city on Detrosse, inspired by Los Angeles. It is the setting for Motley Oak Vista.

History
Sen Yaneta was founded by a combination of powerful non government forces that still rule it to this day. The business interests that would become The Four Studios, the Siritoni Crime Family (newly run out of Los Rejos), and several shipping companies. The isolated nature of the land was deeply appealing, although it required them to seek permission from the angels who lived on the nearby Mount Blanco.

Geography
Sen Yaneta is relatively isolated from the rest of the mainland. To the east of it is the brutal and sprawling Solkern Desert, which dominates the landscape for hours by car before the brief respite of Los Rejos. To the north are towering mountains, including Mount Blanco, as well as the fertile Del Deim Valley. And to the west and south is the vast ocean.

Despite this isolation, Sen Yaneta is well provided for. Desalination plants give the city and the towns scattered around it plenty of freshwater, transforming the region until it is unrecognizable from the desert bordering it. The Del Deim Valley provides an abundant supply of produce, in exchange for access to the previously mentioned freshwater. And although it is fairly difficult to travel to Sen Yaneta via land, its port is constantly bustling. Trade from other cities and nations in Detrosse, as well as Ulnia.

Sen Yaneta is also the best way to get to Ulnia from the mainland; there's a ferry that travels there and back every morning and night. This leads to Sen Yaneta being a popular hub for Ulnian tourists, and people looking to visit the underwater city.

Governance
Sen Yaneta doesn't have a traditional government, nor do they have a police force to speak of. However, the Siritoni crime family maintains a monopoly on violence, and the other major business forces end up fulfilling similar needs as a government would. For all intents and purposes, Sen Yaneta is a company town, and one that does little to hide that nature. There is a considerable amount of stratification of society, with the rich and powerful having considerably more leverage and fewer laws to follow than the poor and working class. But even among rich people, there's vast differences between those who are actor rich, those who are CEO rich, and those who are descendants of the founding members of the city. And of course, above all the humans, there are the angels, who possess a level of power and authority beyond even that.
