Its capital city is referred to as the Iskhandar or Iskhandar City,otherwise sometimes refered as The Lost City of Iskhandarr or simply The Lost City is the largest city in and the sixth-most-populous city in the .Citadel,portrayed as being constructed out of a white, crystalline material and contains the Iskhandarr Capitol, the seat of Iskhandarr government.home of the Council and the Temple of Rao At the centre of the Capitol is the Panopticon, beneath which is

eighborhoods are divided into large sections—North, Northeast, Northwest, West, South and Southwest Iskhandar—all of which surround Center City, which corresponds closely with the city's limits before consolidation in 1854. Each of these large areas contains numerous neighborhoods, some of whose boundaries derive from the boroughs, townships, and other communities that made up Philadelphia County before their absorption into the city. Other neighborhoods are defined more by ethnicity, religion, culture, or commercial reasons.[34]

made use of their advanced science to create a world where scientific inventions and research influenced much of daily life. Robots and computers were used for many tasks on ,

On the white crystalline cities of the planet Iskhandarr, the Ruling Council of Elders banishes three treasonous criminals to eternal imprisonment in the Phantom Zone.Seraphean crystals are able to grow huge land masses and incorporate the properties of the surrounding environment; a sliver taken from of one of the crystals,can charged and programmed to grow into various mega structures of various kind the planet was envisioned as having stark white terrain of jagged frozen plateaus, stretching broadly under heavy, dark skiesextremely hostile, glaciated conditions, which forced extreme adaptation and rapid evolution in the descendants of humanoid space travelers (and their dogs) who became stranded on its surface in decades ago. This led to an extremely strong, dense, and durable Ishankarrian species with unusual physical properties. the rise of a civilization which uses geothermal heat as its primary power source, developing science and technology, but finding it difficult to escape the massive world's gravity.

had to use their advanced technology to survive. Over 100,000 years ago,Iskhandarr had already developed scientific advancements far beyond those of present-day Earth, and within a few millennia had conquered disease, learned to retard the aging process, and perfected cloning; vast banks of non-sentient clones held multiple copies of each living Kryptonian so that replacement parts were always available in the case of injury. All Kryptonians were effectively immortal, "with all the strength and vigor of youth maintained",[3] and enjoyed an idyllic, sensual existence in an Arcadian paradise.[4] The formerly lush garden world was burned and blasted, left mostly a lifeless desert. In direct contrast to the society that had existed prior to the Clone Wars, a sterile, emotionally dead civilization emerged. The population became isolated from one another, living in widely separated technological citadels and shunning all personal, physical contact. Procreation would then become a matter of selecting compatible genetic material which would then be placed within an artificial womb called a "birthing matrix". Any attempt to contact other worlds was forbidden, and the planetary government maintained an isolationist stance, forbidding space exploration of any kind.

Iskhandarr was home to many important buildings for and the Iskhandarr Science Council. It was home to the Science Council's military headquarters, the government building where the Science Council commute and also had a large mine which was run by Zor-El.The city proper is dominated by such institutions as the Museum of Iskhandarr History, a well-stocked library, the Iskhandarrean City Zoo, and the majestic Iskhandarr Hall of Justice, where, once each year, the Iskhandarr Parole Board meets to consider the pleas of Phantom Zone prisoners seeking parole. Those prisoners deemed worthy of parole are released from the Phantom Zone to begin new lives a Iskhandarr citizens. Outside the city is a neatly landscaped suburban region characterized by elegant mansions and fine houses, and beyond the suburbs are "strange forests" filled with Iskhandarrian wildlife and "weird vegetation."The inhabitants of this region bear an obvious connection to the figure of the Noble savage, both being regarded as living close to nature, uncorrupted by civilization, and virtuous.
