Cities of the World

From the introduction:

Welcome Jumper, to Earth. The year is 1901, the turn of the century, the beginning of the age of Globalization. This century will see the rise of the automobile, of computers, of atomic power, of spaceflight. This century will also see the biggest wars in human history, mobilizations and death on scales no one had ever dreamt of. It is a time of great change, a time where a man might make his mark on all the pages of history yet to be written... except that, this time around, you’re not a man. Nor a woman. You are a city. You have a quest; to become a global city, one of the top 100 most influential cities in the world, and you have 100 years in which to do it.
