necropolis

From Greek, denoting The City of the Dead, nowadays a churchyard, a graveyard. Also necropola. Underground necropolis is called catacombs.

Graveyard School of Poetry poets often broded over life and death surrounded by the gloomy miasma and rotting putrefactions of so rueful a place as a necropolis.

Necropolis

Morbid, gothic, chilly tourist attraction.

Hill on outskirts of Glasgow city, covered in with hundreds of graves - from small unmarked stones to massive mausoleums. A solitary footpath winds round the Necropolis, spiralling round the crest of the hill to the top. Found next to Glasgow Cathedral.

Creepy as shit at night. Not much better in the day but at least you can see where you're going.

'It's getting late, lets take a short cut through the Necropolis.' 'Yeah, great idea!'

Netopolis

The central hub of technology and innovation, a place where progress is postmodern; websurfers seek sagacious words from the Oracle that dwells there.

Whilst travelling abroad in a lonesome carriage upon the dusted roads of a forsaken existence, Martin pondered the meaning of life and spoke thus, "To Netopolis I travel this eve on the ancient infobahn."

negropolis

A city in which black people will naturally thrive in.

Equal (or indefinitely opposite) to "Metropolis", but it is very urban all in all.

"Some day Chicago will turn into a real negropolis."

negropolitan

A delicious combination of white, milk, and dark chocolate ice cream resembling neopolitan. However, because all of the flavors are chocolate, the suffix negro- is used.
