| ==Government==
| |
| The City is inhabited by humans, [[Awoken]] and [[Exo]]s, who worked together in the time following the Golden Age to build the city and its defenses.<ref name="city"/> The City was once embroiled by a bitter war between the different [[faction]]s of the City, until the Guardians stepped in and ended the violence. Now, it is ruled by a [[Consensus]] of the factions, with the [[Speaker]] as its head and the [[Vanguard]] taking on an advisory role.<ref name="GF">'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire/Allies#Factions|Factions]]''</ref>

| ==Districts==
| |
| The City is divided into several districts, not all of which are known. Shuttles periodically transport passengers between the City's districts and the [[Tower]].<ref name="Watch Announcements">'''Bungie (2015-2-14)''', ''[[Destiny]], Activision Blizzard:'' Loudspeaker announcements in Tower Watch</ref>
