"You have entered Shady Sands, the capitol of the New California Republic. Its streets are busy and filled with traders and travelers of various kinds."
Shady Sands is a more frequented city. It is the capital of the New California Republic state, and thus Shady Sands is often referred to as NCR (even though NCR is technically not a town). It is one of the larger cities, along with San Francisco and The Hub, which all provide services and are as large as the New California Republic's capital.
History
Shady Sands was a small town built by the survivors of the early-opened Vault 15. Villagers of Shady Sands were smart enough to build an army, and to develop their town. Later on, the New California Republic was created, with both police and military forces. Its great resources are coming from its large brahmin herds, and from the caravans that travel across the Republic. Directed by president Tandi for dozens of years, Shady Sands is still expanding. Well-driven and safe, this city can only grow stronger.
Description
In Fallout 2, it is one of the biggest cities. The city is known to have over 3000 inhabitants in the original Fallout game, and this population can be compared to FOnline's one: Thanks to various features, NCR is one of the most crowded meeting places in The World. As it is a guarded city, wandering around in the town is quite safe. Players are able to trade safely and to talk to many NPCs that can give quests, train you in some Professions, and provide other services (Slavery, bank accounts, etc, see below).
