Description

The Hamilton graticule is at latitude -37, longitude 175. Known throughout New Zealand and the world simply as 'The Tron', Hamilton is New Zealand's most technologically advanced^[Bullshit] and fastest-growing city, with numerous entertainment facilities. This explains why it has been given the unofficial motto of "City of the Future". For those traveling from Auckland, Hamilton is also known as the "Gateway to Raglan".
