Berlin 1941
The Berlin Metropolis is a vast city and the capital of Germany. It was also the base of operations for Die Zwielichthelden.
The Metropolis features many different levels and systems of transport, as well as enormous buildings and highly advanced technology.
Deep underground beneath the Metropolis lies the Workers' City, where the working class reside. These workers run the huge generators and pumps that power the city.
Following the death of Carl Rotwang, the city's creator, the Metropolis was governed by Dr. Caligari with the help of Maria and Die Schlaffkommandos.
In 1941, Janni's son-in-law Armand Robur was imprisoned in the city, forcing her and Broad Arrow Jack to go and rescue them. Following their rescue, Janni has the city devastated by bombs from The Terror in revenge for Jack's death.
