In Destiny, what is the name of the final human stronghold on Earth?

The story behind the answer

In Destiny, the final human stronghold on Earth is called the Last City. It was built beneath the Traveler, the mysterious sphere that sacrificed itself to repel the Darkness during the Collapse.

The Collapse ended humanity’s Golden Age and destroyed or isolated its settlements across the Solar System. Survivors gradually gathered beneath the damaged Traveler, whose presence offered protection and enabled the rise of the Guardians. A massive Wall surrounds the City, reflecting both its defensive purpose and the continuing danger outside it.

The Last City is often confused with the Tower, but the Tower is only a Guardian command center and social hub within the City. The Farm was a temporary refugee settlement used after the Red Legion invasion in Destiny 2. “The City” is also used informally, but “the Last City” is the setting’s established canonical name. It remains the political and cultural center of humanity and its allies.
