Dakota

Dakota is an American city, the home of Static.

History
Located in the Midwestern United States, Dakota lies on the shore of Lake Dakota and west of the High Hills. The city was home to several chemical companies, such as Alva Industries and Ashton Biotechnics, and also had a vibrant music industry.

It was also a city of social unrest and tensions. Things escalated twice, first in the infamous riots and later with the Big Bang. The latter event gave the city countless metahumans, which caused crime rates to spike.

The Dakota Destroyers were the city's professional basketball team.
