Purpose	City
Status	Inhabited

Tokyo is one of the 47 prefectures of Japan and has served as the Japanese capital since 1869. As of 2018, the Greater Tokyo Area ranked as the most populous metropolitan area in the world, boasting a population of 13,839,910. The Restricted Zone accounts for roughly 75% of that prefectural population. Tokyo is often referred to as a city but is officially known and governed as a "metropolitan prefecture", which differs from and combines elements of a city and a prefecture, a characteristic unique to Tokyo. As of 2010, in response to the Shibuya Incident the year prior, an 8-mile wide region of central Tokyo is cordoned off from the rest of the prefecture by a thirty foot high concrete wall. Government checkpoints at each major freeway entrance screen all coming and going out of the city, with freight and industrial traffic using specialized lanes to expedite transit. Non-residents of Japan are not permitted to enter the Tokyo Restricted Zone and Class-3 Registered Evolved are likewise not permitted within the demarcated zone.

The Tokyo Exclusion Zone is policed by Public Security Section 5 of the JSDF and Special Evolved-Crimes Military-Aid Taskforce dubbed the Mugai-ryu.

Evolved citizens have a 1-strike criminal policy. Any criminal conviction by an SLC-E citizen results in jail time and reclassification to Class 3. Non-citizens who are SLC-Expressive and are convicted of a crime in Japan risk indefinite imprisonment.
