Sunderland is the bigger city , and is the biggest city in the North East of England.

Newcastle is a small town close to the River Tyne , and sees alot more trade than Sunderland since Sunderland is frowned upon by the political elite for assisting the Jacobite army during the war and defeating the "Geordies" on the fields of Nothumberlad.

King James VI ordered that Sunderland must give most of its revenue to Newcastle merchants in 1610 after Newcastle complained about how much coal Sunderland was producing , and to this day Newcastle still lives off Sunderland`s revenue , receiving large amounts of tax-payer`s money , and depriving Sunderland of the renovation it desperately needs.
