Chicago
Location from Divergent by Veronica Roth
A post-apocalyptic walled city divided into five faction territories — the last experiment in whether humanity can be saved by forcing people to choose a single virtue and live by it.
Also known as: The City, The Chicago Experiment
What They Know
- The city is a sealed genetic experiment run by the Bureau of Genetic Welfare — the factions are engineered, not natural
- Five faction territories with invisible borders enforced by social pressure more than physical barriers
- The Choosing Ceremony happens once a year — sixteen-year-olds choose a faction, and choosing against their birth faction means leaving their family forever
- The Factionless population lives in the gaps between faction territories, surviving on handouts and scavenging
- The fence is electrified and guarded by Dauntless patrols — no one goes in or out
