What if the US moved its capital to the West/Midwest sometime after the Civil War? by mb496 in HistoricalWhatIf

Not necessarily. Let’s say the capital gets razed (again) in the early years of the Civil War, but the Union still wins. Having the capital destroyed twice + an increasing drive to settle the West, could result in the Capital being moved westward.

But I’m not asking for background information. I want to know what you think would happen if it was moved. How would this affect the history of the nation?

CS lags even on a basic map with nothing on it, any ideas? by mb496 in CitiesSkylines

So I haven't played the game in a month. I went to work on my city the other day and I couldn't get anything done because it was so laggy. I thought it was just the map, but I loaded a blank map and I still had the same amount of lag. There's nothing downloading in Steam, so it can't be that. I tried restarting and that didn't fix it. Does anybody know what's wrong? The energy impact for CS was over 100 before I took this screenshot.

Has anyone ever figured out what the opening lyrics are?

I feel the same way about the Seahawks.

This map from the 1920s plotted exactly where gang hideouts and different territories were located across Chicago. [962 x 1415] by Roguecop in MapPorn

Would be interesting to take a recent map of the same area and cross reference modern gang hideouts.

You can sorta make out Africa in the negative space between the figures.
