"The Pleasure Capital" - Glam Gas Land (
Overview[]
The area was originally very poor and covered in red earth mountains. A tribe of migrants, the Glam Caravan, discovered a valuable natural gas resource in the mountains and settled near the deposits, abandoning its centuries-old nomadic lifestyle. The land became known as Glam Gas Land, and many came in search of the valuable gas. After the deposits were depleted and the Glam Clan became wealthy from their management of the resource, they focused on the business of casino management. Hotels were built alongside the casinos and competed with each other to bring in the most guests, attracting the best magicians and performers for their shows. Consequently, show business became the city's signature trade.[1]

Trivia[]
- Las Vegas may have been the inspiration for the creation of the city given some of its characteristics: its location in a desert defined by numerous mountain ranges, a renowned resort city known for its gambling/entertainment/nightlife, and a city famous for its mega casino-hotels and associated activities that bills itself as "The Entertainment Capital of the World" a.k.a. the "City of Lights" and "The Gambling Capital of the World". However, many aspects of the city's concept are also taken from real-life Arab companies successfully exploiting oil and natural gas resources, leading to the rise of grandiose cities such as Abu Dhabi, Doha and Dubai.
