This city, inhabited continuously for four thousand years, is where democracy first appeared as a political system. Athens was for centuries, the intellectual capital of the Old World. Their advances in architecture, sculpture and philosophy consume the base of our modem world.

Now, however, its population is 33% of the total of Greece. This uncontrolled expansion has resulted in chaos, where urban and rural features coexist without any order: goats feed in vacant lots, you can find wagons among the dense traffic of the avenues, and elegant fashion shops rest alongside turkish-style bazaars.

The main support of Athens today is tourism, real and illegal (high-risk operatives are traditionally big spenders). All touristic areas are high security, with military police conspicuously present The other great source of income is trade, and as illegal trade brings more income that legal, it is highly popular here. There is also a brisk forgery industry, copying anything from Chinese passports to Ares Citymasters, along with weapons and drugs. They even make cheaper polymer one shots!

At night, if you avoid the tourists-only areas and the curfew, you can find the friendliest people of Europe (if you behave properly). Women will have to bear continuous propositions, however.
