Ankh-Morpork is a fictional city which features in Terry Pratchett's Discworld series of fantasy novels. As cities go, it is on the far side of corrupt and polluted, and is subject to outbreaks of comedic violence and brou-ha-ha on a fairly regular basis. It is home to the Unseen University, a centre of magical learning.
The city divides more or less into Ankh (the posh part) and Morpork (the humble part, which includes the area known as "the Shades"), which are separated by the River Ankh.
