The city of Zodanga is located in [[Barsoom|Barsoom's]] southwest hemisphere. The city is covered by sentries who patrol just within the walls.

It moves over the surface of the planet on hundres of massive mechanical legs, its massive hangar decks house the many airships that zodangans use to attack their enemies. The city itself has been through so many battles that its been rebuilty and redeveloped over the various wars! |

Zodanga is a Red Martian city and nation that before John Carter's arrival on Mars had long been enemies with the red men of Helium, and the green men of Thark. The kingdom was conquered by John Carter and the green hordes of Thark, with the assistance of many minor hordes. The city then became part of the kingdom of the nation of Helium.
City Structure
The city is surrounded by walls 75 feet in height, and fifty feet thick, constructed of enormous blocks of Carborundum. The central plaza of the city covers a square mile, here are the palaces of the jeddak and other members of royalty and nobility, as well as the principal public buildings, cafes, and shops.
The city was sacked and looted by the green hordes led by John Carter, but it seems to have recovered somewhat since that time
Inhabitants
