Angularille

Angularille is a fictional city in a hypothetical country used in encyclopedic examples to illustrate urban planning and technology ecosystems. The name reflects its planned, angular street network and a central civic district. The city sits along the River Lumen and is organized around a rectilinear grid that radiates from a circular core containing Vertex Plaza and Angular Hall.

Angularille has a historical arc from a 19th-century market town to a modern tech hub. A public research campus established in the mid-20th century spurred growth in software, hardware design, and design services. A sustainability-driven master plan implemented in the 1990s guided transit-oriented development, parks, and energy-efficient buildings.

Its economy combines technology companies, universities, and public sector services. Major employers are cited in the hypothetical Nebula Systems and Arcadia Labs. The city hosts Angularille University, with programs in urban planning, computer science, and architecture. The population is diverse, with residents from various backgrounds and languages, though the official language is a local variant of the common tongue in the fictional country.

Governance is provided by a city council and a mayor elected for fixed terms, with emphasis on transparency and participatory budgeting. Public services include a tram network, buses, bicycle lanes, libraries, and a renewable-energy program that powers much of the downtown cluster.

Landmarks include Vertex Plaza, Angular Hall, and the Crescent Library. The annual Tech Art Festival and design fairs reflect Angularille’s blending of engineering, planning, and culture.
