About Dalian
Ice-free port at the tip of the Liaodong peninsula, built up by Russia and Japan in turn. Shipping and shipbuilding dominate.
Population about 4,099,999 at the game's 2010 snapshot.
Dalian is a business market: its traffic comes from companies and connections rather than from holidays, which rewards frequency over seat count.
