Rezwan wrote: the core planets in Firefly. Xenon? Did they actually name the city Xenon.
“Sihnon” (one of the two major core planets, and settled primarily by Chinese colonists, in contrast with “Londinium”, the other major core planet, which was settled primarily by by Western colonists). Of course, the Big Damn Heroes in Firefly are fighting against (or, more accurately, pulling crimes against) the core planets and their government, which is somewhat oppressive, however pretty the cities are. So again, it may not be a great example.
(And yes, I know way too much about the Firefly ‘verse.)
