Smacked square in the middle of the Metro Kingdom, New Donk City is seen as the event hub of the Kingdom. Advised by the wonderful Mayor Pauline, the city has grown from a smaller urban development, into a sprawling paradise for anybody looking to make it big. Considered to be the most famous of any of the cities in the Metro Kingdom, talent hunters and monopoly-makers are bound to walk beside you on the sunny sidewalks. Sporting a strong twenty-seven degrees Celsius and a countless number of commuters, New Donk City really is the urban dream.

In the north, you are likely to see the New Donk City Hall from any spot in the city. Being the largest building in New Donk has made it the most memorable, especially for tourists. Tours are commonly held for the Hall, occasionally hosted by Mayor Pauline herself. Inside is a slew of jazz performance and political discussion, with each level of the building sporting a different function. Each tour will cost roughly three hundred coins, but it’s all worth it to learn about such a historical locale.

Speaking of historical locale, New Donk City is home to the origins of most of your favorite companies! The Crazy Cap, Expresso Espresso and its fierce competitor Moonbucks Coffee, and Harold’s Engine and RC Development (HEaRD) all began business here in New Donk. The city council is always looking for fresh new ideas to sponsor, which is perhaps why it feels as though New Donk is always under construction. Not that this is a complaint, of course! New Donkers were polled on how they enjoyed the environment, and around 83% of New Donkers said they really enjoyed seeing constant new ideas and buildings appearing around town.

But if one is to discuss New Donk City, you would be mistaken to not mention the New Donk City Festival! Yearly, a gigantic festival is held for several days in New Donk, featuring bright lights, upcoming stars, and even Mayor Pauline singing her classic tune, “Jump Up, Super Star!” Toad Monthly named the New Donk City Festival as the Best Event to Experience in the World in 2017, and its spectacle only grows more every year. Is it highly recommended to see which dates and falls upon this year, and that you plan your stay in New Donk accordingly, if you are only visiting.

As for housing, New Donk’s apartment complexes are tall, grand, and cheap, only at about eleven thousand coins per month! If you are of lower income, don’t fret! The streets are a perfectly safe, pleasant alternative, especially with all of the street performers whom you’ll encounter! Everybody is so helpful and nice in New Donk City that anybody is likely to give you a financial hand!

… Ah hah, I mean, yes, welcome to Crumbleden! Magnificent, isn’t it? It’s not as if I was in the Cascade Kingdom for the last ten years or anything, I expected this fully! Yes, this is the beautiful Kingdom of Crumbleden! Do mind the stairs, and the fog, and the falling debris…

Ahem! Not many residents of other Kingdoms are aware of Crumbleden’s presence in the world, due to its seclusion. We’ve always been a more prestigious bunch, but rest assured that the residents here would accept you with open arms, if you were to stay. Our Kingdom is well-known for its absolutely impervious building design, and strong protection against intruders! In fact, in my time in Crumbleden, I have never seen a single building collapse! While it’s awfully foggy right now, I promise you that the sky really is a delight at night, with all of the twinkling stars and Power Moons… You may still want to wear a jacket, though. It can get awfully brisk.

If you look in front of you, you’ll find yourself gazing upon the Crumbleden Spire, a tower in which lighting was brought down with arcane magic, energizing the rest of the Kingdom with its intensity. It’s said that, hundreds of years ago, Magikoopas first began training here due to its electric energy! Of course, it’s rather hard to tell that now…

But that’s not all of the secrets Crumbleden holds, oh no! Thousands of years ago, the first dragon in existence hatched from an egg, which had mysteriously appeared overnight. From there, dragons became a regularity in the Kingdom of Crumbleden, until the Great Dragon War, in which the ruler, His Honorable Shroommidge III, used fear mongering to turn the residents against the dragons, when in actuality recent attacks on the Kingdom had been done by the Mushroom Kingdom people. Regardless, all of the dragons were eliminated in the war, and none more exist in the world to this--
