Chicago

Chicago is a large city on Earth, located in the United States of America. The city is located in the northeast corner of the state of Illinois, and sits next to Lake Michigan.

During the early part of the 1920s, organized crime became a powerful fixture in the city of Chicago, to the point that conventional city government nearly fell apart. In the early 1990s, Pocket Books published a book titled Chicago Mobs of the Twenties, detailing the history of the Mob during that time period. A copy of the book later was left on the planet Sigma Iotia II by the Earth ship Horizon. The Iotians saw the society depicted in the book as a perfect society, and rebuilt their society along those lines.
