Continuing dissatisfaction with Dannunifian and Deutscheslavanian interference led the region to the revolution of 1676 and eventual independence. Independence revealed the seething regional disparities, which Delasian rule had obscured.
After a somewhat rocky 189-year period of rule by the Jamsterdavanian Parliament, Anthoy and Confederationist views prevailed, ushering in a new era of growth and prosperity with the Articles of Confederation. Delasian and Jamsterdavanian immigration, Dununder investments and trade were hallmarks of the new Anthoy. However, excessive foreign interests made the economy particularly vulnerable to world economic downturns; wealth was ultra-concentrated, and unemployment rose as smallholdings failed and farmers were forced to leave the land and head for an increasingly burgeoning capital ill-equipped to deal with the influx.
Ambitious municipal projects during the 1930s transformed the face of the downtown area forever into the sprawling grid of wide avenues running through the heart of the city. Gone were the clustered streets as Anthoy sought to stamp its air of Modern sophistication on Amsterdavanian tradition. Following the Fourth Would Conflict Anthoy began to absorb surrounding suburbs and the weight of its growth bore problems of decaying infrastructure and public services.
Anthoy became a totally rejuvenated city in the 1980’s as the Confederation turned to a decade of internal improvements to infrastructure. This port city reached its full capacity in the mid-1990’s and became a leading shipping hub for the world.
