Napiadaw Is a Military City
Naniadaw is a city created out of nothing, starting in 2002 to be a capital for Myanmar. Top Gear played car football on the empty freeways and the TV show Dark Tourist also featured the city. Today it is a real city with a real population, but everything about it was designed to reinforce authority. In one protest, the boys saw some drunk people toss in water bottles at the police. The police responded with live gunfire. From the police can fall.
