SanSan is an American megacity that sprawls along the California coastline from San Diego in the south to San Francisco in the north. It is the cradle of high-end tech, home to beautiful beaches, and the host of the World Expo.
It is still recovering from "The Big One", the cataclysmic earthquake that opened up the San Andreas fault and redefined America’s western coast.
NBN used to be headquartered in the city until it relocated its centre of operations to New Angeles, but their city grid remains and it is considered a haven for fast-tracking corporate projects.
