− | The 25th Ward | + | The 25th Ward has a mayor, [[Kenichiro Mikoshiba]], as well as law enforcement agencies such as the [[25th Ward Heinous Crimes Unit]]. Organizations like these make up the surface-level ward government, and the initiatives to develop it were led by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications. However, under the surface, the Ward is actually controlled by the [[Postal Federation]] who enforce a form of martial law on the residents to better control them. Working in collaboration with the Postal Federation is a secret agency known as the [[Regional Adjustment Bureau]], who administrate the Postal Federation's deliverymen. |

Plans for it began at least as early as 2003, as seen by Mikoshiba's poster in {{CL|25}}, on which he promotes the Ward 25 plan, suggesting that he was also involved with its creation from early on. The 25th Ward was designed to take in certain kinds of residents from all over the country; in Nakane's words, "people are not made. People are scouted." It was also designed as a political plan to reconstruct Kanto itself and theoretically act as a new capital. However, at the same time, different factions in the Ward were conducting experiments to gather observational data collected by [[observer]]s; it is suggested that this is the true purpose of the Ward. |

This would not come to pass, as he is found dead not long after. Even if he had lived, though, the 25th Ward would not have existed for much longer regardless. At the conclusion of the experiment, the Ward is destroyed in a protocol known as the [[Earth Rage|Rage Earth Plan]] and sinks below the sea. |

[[Kosuke Kurumizawa]] is shown to have [[Kurumizawa's House|a digital house]] that still resides in the sea where the city used to be. |
