Central City (Earth-5261)

"We live in a city full of Metahumans who continually do whatever they want, Flash included."

- - Scott Evans

Empire City is a large city located in Ohio, United States, consisting of three main, large islands, Neon, Warren, and Historical District. In 2011, a particle accelerator was constructed by S.T.A.R. Labs, but an accident caused it to explode, creating a shock wave with extradimensional energy that blew through the city and created numerous Metahumans in the event that became known as the "Big Bang".
