Swan Lake is major interior northern city situated upon the River Marlene. Swan Lake is a constituent municipality of the Anglo-Russo-Hungarian Megalopolitan Complex. Located roughly equidistant between the downriver coastal megalopolis of Serenade to the north and the upriver city of Tchaikovsky to the south, Swan Lake maintains strong economic connections to those cities as well as smaller northern cities such as Nutcracker and Marche Slave.
As of the 250 AI Census, Swan Lake had a population of 180,923 residents, making it Illuminatia's 45th-largest city. Swan Lake has experienced some growth since then and it is estimated the city will have a population of more than 650,000 by the 300 AI Census, an increase of about 360% over 50 AU.
Swan Lake is a secondary settlement city, and is populated primarily by descendants of the third multiversal duplication of the Lucidus I ship.
Swan Lake was named in honor of an ancient Earthly ballet and its associated musical composition.
