| Topic | Is Coruscant the largest fictional city? |
| DrPrimemaster 02/07/18 10:09:00 PM #30: | Was looking up the city from Asimov's Foundation "Trantor" for comparrison. There have been some serious attempts to illustrate a planet like Trantor in the Star Wars films by George Lucas, the first being Coruscant (which was in some early sources called "Jhantor", in homage to Trantor[citation needed]). Coruscant is one of the more convincing images on screen we have today of Isaac Asimov's conception of the world-girdling city of Trantor. Coruscant is a planet-covering open-air city, while Trantor's buildings are all subterranean or under domes[14] due to worsening weather conditions.[15] Asimov's Trantor thus differs from Coruscant in that Trantor is more practically adapted to inclement weather, although weather control devices are used on both planets. It should be noted that there is a planet called Trantor in the Star Wars universe, and it is also an ecumenopolis. --- Metroids Suck ... Copied to Clipboard! |
