Homelessness Skyrocketed in Iza By Joe Harrington August 22nd, 2098 Iza is the most populated city in Gulvia, home to the Alfonso's and the place where the major battle in the civil war happened. Although an important and historic city, Iza was heavily neglected even by King Eduard Alfonso I himself after the civil war most of the commercial infrastructure, important trade routes, and roads were destroyed. Nearly 120,000 civilian lives in Iza were lost further weakening the once Historic City, In 2080 King Eduard Alfonso I tried to fix the situation in Iza by repairing important infrastructure to ensure economic stability in the City, but the population by 2080 rises significantly and more people are looking for jobs but the government could not provide for them as King Eduard also tried to repair most of the ruins in Gulvia but to no avail. Until King Alfonso II came and the disastrous situation of Iza could not be saved, and homelessness rose significantly because of the lack of jobs as the city was continuously neglected by the crown more people looked for opportunities somewhere and left the once great city, Even people left the city there are still reports of homelessness and lack of electricity, water in the area it is currently considered as the worst city in Gulvia until today.
