Wiljouri

''Wiljouri is not the capital of New South Albatross. For the capital city, see Killingera.''

Wiljouri (/wɪlˈdʒoʊri/ | will-JOUR-ee) is the most populous city in New South Albatross. As of the 1940 census, the city's recorded population was 11,741,009.

Geography
Wiljouri is located in the recess of the Wiljouri Bay, and in the northern section of the Central Coastal Plain, northwest of Lilyhendon and east of Kalgurah. The city's location provides the triple advantage of a moderate Mediterranean climate for comfortable living conditions, a natural harbour for sea traffic, and close proximity to the Magnolian Mesa for easy access to the resources it contains, all combining to make Wiljouri a prime gathering place in New South Albatross.

The city, due to its size, is defined by a moderately-sized urban core, medium ring of low density buildings, and large exterior of suburbs and smaller towns within it, as with many of the other large cities in New South Albatross. The city has numerous parks and green zones placed about the city to combat pollution, smog, and the sentiment of "urban imprisonment," earning it a reputation as one of the most livable and pleasant cities in not just the country, but the continent of Magnolia.

Wiljouri is located just below the Austral Tropic, giving it a tropical climate with hot summers and mild winters. This is paired with its proximity to other large cities and access beaches to offer a similar resort feel to Kinross, in Persland.

Demographics
The city's population, as of the 1940 census, was recorded to be 11,741,009, the highest population of a city in New South Albatross. 46% of the city's population is composed of immigrants[1] and 64% of the city's population's grandparents to parents are immigrants. The top countries of origin for these immigrants are Persland, Adélieland, and Morithaea-Flora, but a population from countries including Federico Medio, Ondesria, Rosterlund, Lumisaaret, and Wyrfayine has been growing rapidly in recent years. The city has been reported by the NSACB (New South Albatross Census Bureau) to have an overall Xenophobia Score of 0.18, making it one of the most friendly cities to immigrants in New South Albatross. The least xenophobic towns are Lance Corporal (0.10), Downtown Wiljouri (0.10), and Croswell-Lexington (0.11), while the most are Palais (0.21), Hogan Hills (0.23), and Pleasant Meadow (0.26).

Politics
The mayor of Wiljouri is Progressive Keira Dunleavy, elected in 1936. The city has often voted for Progressives and Liberals in national elections.

In recent times, political movements have formed to transfer capital city status from Killingera to Wiljouri, due to the fact that Wiljouri is bigger, sees more traffic, and is not related to Adélieland, and the Wiljouri Party was formed to petition and lobby the New South Albatross government to do this.

Perception
The city is typically regarded poorly by outsiders. Common negative terms used to describe Wiljourians include "hipsters," "ritchies," and "city slickers," with a typical phrase of choic being "Wiljackasses." Wiljourians, in response to these insults, often regard outsiders as "bogans" and accuse critics of "never visiting Wiljouri in their life" and "giving in to stereotypes and hearsay." To see if this was true, independent organisation NSArveyor conducted a survey of those visiting Wiljouri for 3 days and found their perception of the city had, in most instances, become more positive after they concluded their tour.

Abroad, Wiljouri is seen by other nations, primarily former Morithaean colonies, for "those who think Kinross is a bit much." Most often comparisons are made between Wiljouri and the capital of Persland as both are tropical with famous beaches, have high populations, and share a language and culture from Morithaean-Albatrosser colonisation. The main difference is that Wiljouri is much larger but further from the Equator, making it less hot overall, which is why some may prefer it to Kinross.
