Sofasi (南亚/南亞 in Chinese) is a Lovian town on Asian Island and is the Clymene state capital. The name comes from South of Asian Island. Sofasi is a popular tourist location, as a result of its soft climate, its holiday atmosphere and local monuments and beaches.
Sofasi came on the news when neo-nazi rioters cause unrest on 11 May 2010. In the event, known as the Sofasi Riot, 21 people got wounded and 2 houses and 2 cars were severly damaged by fires. Almost all hooligans had been arrested, as they were suspected of incendiarism and ferocity. A similar riot later occurred during the Lovian Civil War, with a few buildings being damaged, most notably the Sofasi Apartments.
