Founded in the late 1700s, resting south-east of the state capital Trenton on the east coast, the city quickly became one of the United State's most important coastal locations. Not only was it a communal ground of trade and travel, but also a hub of industry, meaning despite it not holding the title of 'state capital', it quickly became the biggest and most populous city in the state. Throughout the centuries since it's conception, Port Rush has continued to grow, becoming a multi-cultural mixing pot, having a large population of European, Puerto Rican and African-American citizens. However, the city, now, in this modern era, does not have the most healthy of reputations. Despite the fact that petty crime is fairly well controlled, it is no secret that the city has major underground gang warfare issues, though the rumors do not even match the severity of the issue. In reality, everything in the city, from the industry to the police force has been infected by these dominating gangs. Port Rush is in the hands of gangs, and the everyday people don't even know it.
