History

Lohana City was founded as Nopoly in 1876 on the location of Fort Nopoly and an old Parkufo city. In 1884, resident John Zonapath Granham urged many people to settle in the new city. In 1901, construction on the Nopoly-Hamilton Airport began. The airport was completed in 1913. In 1907, construction on the Arbunean began; the Arbunean was completed in 1915. The discovery of iron and steel attracted many people to Nopoly, and from 1917 to 1939, Nopoly was Western Dragoonasag's leading producer of steel. Fort Nopoly was restored in 1942. In the 1960s, Nopoly's population grew, and new jobs were created when Dragoonasag Interstate Route 61 was built through the city. In 1989, Nopoly was renamed Lohana City when Lohana became a state. In 1997, architects Jack Hamson and Joag Walsh performed a detailed examination of Lohana City's buildings to see if they could withstand major earthquakes, as the city sits near a hidden fault line, the Ardwin Fault.
