'''Mombasa''' was a city in [[Kenya]], [[East African Protectorate]], on the planet [[Earth]]. The heart of the city was the prosperous [[New Mombasa]] on [[Wikipedia:Mombasa Island|Mombasa Island]].

Mombasa Island is separated from the mainland by two bodies of water: [[Wikipedia:Tudor Creek|Tudor Creek]] to the north and [[Wikipedia:Kilindini Harbour|Kilindini Harbour]] to the south. Northwest of the island and between the creeks, a large peninsula connects to the island via [[Wikipedia:Makupa Causeway|Makupa Causeway]]. The effects of the dramatic climbing of sea levels due to global warming are evident throughout the now vitrified area. Large areas of former land are now underwater; most of the city was saved only by large seawalls around the shores.
