Victoria was largely composed of Edwardian style buildings, Victorian style and a few modern buildings in more recent times. The main builders of the city are often inspired by cities in Europe including London, and in recent times a strict building law/theme had been established and regulated by the Victoria Council.
Victoria was largely composed of Edwardian style buildings, Victorian style and Post-Modernist constructions towards its latter days. In its founding days there was an open building policy where players could build unsupervised if they promised to abide by building codes. However due to many instances of deviation from the strict Anglo-European theme the Victoria Council established stricter building regulations with offending buildings removed or recladded if salvageable. Newer residents would have to demonstrate building promise before being allowed to construct a home in the City of Victoria.
