- Kelita City is a large city built on Lake Kelita. A short train ride or flight from Keldabe it is almost entirely funded by MandalMotors and as such, most of the buildings and rented office space is also owned by MandalMotors. Filled with shops, factories, and warehouses Kelita City is an epicenter of business on Mandalore. It also has a string of popular tourist attractions and hotels along its beach as well as one of the largest Bolo Ball stadiums on Mandalore.
- As with much of Mandalore, Kelita City is patrolled by Mandalorian Empire warriors, keeping the peace in the city. Being corporately run by a company that supports the Mandalorian Empire also gives certain perks like tax cuts and the like for the small businesses that take root in the city. It is also a tourist attraction due to its proximity to Lake Kelita and its collection of resorts along the beach and thus keeping those people happy is important to the law enforcement of Kelita City.

Constructed by MandalMotors and the Mandalorian Empire, Kelita City was constructed some time after the Destruction of Mandalore and the Mandalorian Civil War. Designed to be a large space manufacturing and test bed for MandalMotors first, the rest of the city was constructed around the long tarmacs and factories of MandalMotors. With deals made between the nationalized construction guilds of the Mandalorian Empire and Sasori MandalMotors was able to obtain the necessary capital and supplies to build both a new city and aid in the reconstruction of Keldabe.
Despite being constructed after the Civil War, the late MandalMotors CEO, Gilamar Skirata had already begun planning the large city well before the war with the One Sith, however due to his responsibilities as Mandalore, the Alor of House Skirata, and the CEO of MandalMotors on top of the seemingly endless wars his people were apart of he never found time to construct it. It was originally going to be built a different continent in the southern hemisphere, however after his apparent death, Zeke Farthen, the new CFO of MandalMotors informed Dorn Skirata, the new CEO of MandalMotors of a data file containing all of Gilamar Skirata's future project plans. With permission from the CEO Zeke retrieved the data packet and set to work on Gil's plans, modifying them to fit the new landscape and economic needs of Mandalore.
Taking around 65% of the funds from Gilamar Skirata's personal accounts, a loan from the Mandalorian Empire's building guilds, loans from the Hutts, and several billion credits of MandalMotors total earnings, Zeke nearly bankrupted the company getting Kelita City and Keldabe back on their feet in terms of building. After forging contracts with Sasori, a Galactic Mega Corporation, MandalMotors grudgingly began work on the city.
Constructed mostly out of Sasori's highly modular construction series buildings, the city was very easy to build as block by block the Mandalorian Empire and MandalMotors construction force threw up the modular buildings in weeks, though not everything could be built from the modular pieces. Many of them had to be modified for Mandalore's climate and to be compatible with Mandalore's own construction policies.
The result was a Mandalorian Mega City, larger than both Keldabe and Sundari put together. With space for new businesses, new homes, and new attractions Kelita City became the fastest growing city on Mana'yaim.
