Population	22

Tsalbarivo is one of Madagascar's oldest and largest cities, located on the western coast. It is the result of the merging of Masoarivo and Barbtopia by Barbasmas and Westono. Since then, the town has seen huge growth in the form of new residents and buildings. Tsalograd, a new district, was also integrated into the town.

As of September 2019, it is Madagascar's most populated town.

History

Creation of Masoarivo

Westono landed on Madagascar and was warmly welcomed by its people. They helped him settle after he found a suitable spot on the western coast of the island, where he built a small wooden house that stands to this day. He had created the town Masoarivo, one of Madagascar's earliest settlements on the western coast of the island.

Masoarivo's port was used during the Coffee Bay conflict, where Madagascar's men boated out to fight.

Masoarivo saw slow and steady growth in its first few months. Westono constructed Bisk Tower, Madagascar's first skyscraper. A new tunnel now connected Masoarivo to mainland Africa to another town within the nation at that time.

Barbasmas constructed the sandstone bridge for the national railway into Masoarivo over the exact valley he'd later create his own town in, Barbtopia!

Creation of Barbtopia

In March of 2019, Barbasmas set up Barbtopia, a suburb located next to Masoarivo in the river valley to the east. It was connected to Masoarivo by a number of roads. Both mayors were working together to build prosperous urban and suburban areas in the hopes of bringing life to the western side of Madagascar.

In a rapid pace, many new buildings popped up; the Jazz Bar Sonrietta, the Storage, The Sewers, The Khospital etc. One building that was cancelled however was the Casino "Grand" that was planned to be Barbtopia's main source of income. The mayor Barbasmas said this regarding the cancelling:

Barbtopia in the foreground and Bisk Tower in the background. The Khospital is the only fully white building in Barbtopia, and it is the only hospital in Madagascar.

"Well I was sooper stoked on making it but building it was slow and I saw the Casino that opened in Tibet and thought 'crepes' coz I'd never be able to surpass that."

In April, both towns were merged to create one large town under the name of Barbsoarivo.

Creation of Tsalograd

Tsalograd was founded by IEatDookie in late April of 2019. This district is located north of Barbtopia in the same river valley. With this new district came a new name for the town, Tsalbarivo. When the district was first established, it was the centre of Madagascar's Communist party. It only featured one Communist style apartment block. Its founder later wished to move out and create a town on mainland Africa, Pemba Coast, which left Tsalograd essentially abandoned without no new development.

In September of 2019, Westono and Barbasmas decided to completely tear down old Tsalograd and rebuild it from the ground up, this time as an affluent suburban neighbourhood, to meet the demand for housing in the city. This included tearing down the old stables located nearby and relocating them to Barbtopia. Underground in the district's metro station, a museum was established to remember old Tsalograd and features a replica model of the old crumbling apartment block!

These stables were built by Hulk00 between Barbtopia and Tsalograd. He sells horses, saddles and horse armors.

Infrastructure

Tsalbarivo has a variety of means of transport available - anything ranging from sidewalks to the national railway. There are roads for cars (boats) to travel on, and an underground ice boat metro for rapid transit in and between the districts. Mayor Westono signed the building permit for a national airport in late April, expected to be complete later in 2019. Hulk00 built with the help of Sainte Mariean GodZillaHawkMama a stable from the 19th century where one can purchase a horse with saddle.

Production

The main trade are psykoactive substances, Haste bottles and Exp bottles coming from the heavy industrial district of Barbtopia, although they only make up a small portion of the economy. The main source of income is from the state in the form of subsidies and gifts from aristocrats like _mydivinefury_ and Nominaw. The second largest income is from investors looking to create districts: Barbasmas and IEatDookie.
