About Taipei
Taiwan's capital, in a basin at the northern end of the island. Electronics manufacturing and dense trade links across the region.
Population about 5,200,000 at the game's 2010 snapshot.
Taipei is a business market: its traffic comes from companies and connections rather than from holidays, which rewards frequency over seat count.
