The city and its metropolitan area constitute the premier gateway for legal immigration to Staynes, and as many as 1,200 languages are spoken in Sani Bursil, making it Urth's most linguistically diverse city. Sani Bursil is home to more than 11 million residents born outside [[Great Morstaybishlia]] and their [[Morstaybishlian Empire#Present territories|Overseas Territories]], making it Urth's largest foreign-born population of any city. By 2016 estimates, the Sani Bursil metropolitan region remains by a significant margin the most populous in Staynes, as defined by the Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), 56.6 million residents. As one of three headquarters of the [[UNAC|United Nations of the Auroran Continent (UNAC)]], Sani Bursil is an important centre for international diplomacy and has been described as the cultural, financial, and media capital of Urth.
The [[Wikipedia:Industrial Revolution|Industrial Revolution]] in the late 18th and early 19th centuries saw a massive population boom and migration of people towards the Burisaye area. Whilst towns and smaller cities around the lake prospered, the five cities of Gersega, Verhana, Keveri, Celidizia and Bursil saw the most growth. Drawing the boundaries between the five cities became a problem in the early 1930s as they began to overlap one another. In the late 1930s ideas began circulating of a super city connected by a supermassive dense inner city centre. Blueprints were put forward in 1941 which saw the closely-neighbouring city centres form one super-city centre, which was approved. The project to remodel the city began in 1942 with the city councils buying out the 4,000 residents in the two square mile radius between the five city centres and demolishing the site to its foundations. It was predicted that automobiles would become an integral part of commuting in the next few decades and so the inner city had additional plans for larger and more efficient roadworks between buildings. The five cities merged judicial courts and constructed its building in the new area. The city councils promoted new companies or existing companies on the outer city centres to buy land and rebuild there. Now, these companies are some of the richest in the world.
Until 1952, there was five major separate cities that occupied the lakeside. Gersega, Verhana, Keveri, Celidizia and Bursil. Each had existed since the early stages of the [[Morstaybishlian Empire]] with Bursil and Kerveri's roots laying from [[List_of_cities_in_Great_Morstaybishlia#History|post-antiquity]]. Each city prospered enormously by the riches of [[Lake Lamberta]], and by the 17th century the lake began to amalgamate people in from as far as Andel and as wide as Port Barnaul. The key to its success was the fundamental idea it held healing and extensive medicinal values. The five boroughs – Gersega, Verhana, Keveri, Celidizia and Bursil – were consolidated into a single city in 1952, forming the megalopolis. The city adopted its shortened name of ''Sani Bursil'' in 1955 because of complicated royal reasons. The city's five boroughs are self governing and each have provosts, but are helmed by a single Lord Provost. Bursil is by far the dominant metropolitan borough of the supercity by area, financial, and population as well as the richest. ▼
