A town enclosed under a dome. Features often include letting everyone on the outside go to hell, being a paranoid City in a Bottle, and ending up as a Doomed domed hometown. Fairly traditional for Underwater Cities or space colonies in Science Fiction. An Underground City may or may not have one holding up the roof and/or simulating a sky. Subtrope of Wall Around the World. Not to be confused with a Doomed Hometown, which this trope's name is a snowclone of, though it is possible for them to overlap. |

Only active during the day in Sleepless Domain. At night, the outer barrier is shut down to recharge and an inner barrier protects the city by forming a seal around the walls of buildings. Monsters can still break through during this period, so to prevent that Magical Girls come out and patrol against them. | |

Most of the large cities in the Revelation Space universe are enclosed under pressurized domes, as most planets are Death Worlds. Chasm City is the most notable, with a 60 kilometer wide dome covering the city and the volcano-like rupture in the center of the city that produces the breathable air. | |

Honor Harrington: Grayson developed these as a means of controlling the planet's high concentration of heavy metals. Given their limited tech base, these domes weren't all that large until allying with Manticore introduced them to crystoplast and other modern super-strong materials. Honor founds a company called Sky Domes, Ltd., and makes a fortune on this trope. Several conservative steadholders try to sabotage one of her first domes, resulting in the death of several children (which horrifies even them, since children are sacred on Grayson). Fortunately, the sabotage is discovered, and all culprits are punished. | |

In Horizon Forbidden West, the Las Vegas Strip was sealed under a series of climate-controlled geodesic domes in order to keep it habitable even as Global Warming ravaged the American Southwest. Those domes have still held up even hundreds of years and one Robot War later, allowing Aloy to explore the well-preserved ruins of the Strip that are otherwise buried in sand. | |

All bases (cities) in Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. Justified because Planet's atmosphere is toxic to humans. A particularly dome-happy faction are the pirates, but they build floating bases on oceans. Another point is that sea bases come with a specific structure for free, the Pressure Dome, which is meant to protect against possible submersion (and also works as a Recycling Tanks facility). Its Spiritual Successor Civilization: Beyond Earth has plausibly designed cities that look like the real-world harsh-environment bases, but domes can be built to expand habitation, thereby increasing the health of the city. They also provide culture bonuses, presumably because everyone's inspired by how cool they are. Domes can be built both on land and at the bottom of the sea. |

Lost Cities: The seapony capital was an unusual example — rather than a straightforward dome, the royal palace of their queen was an immense structure built out of eggshell-thin, transparent mother-of-pearl, large enough to fill a large section of the Starlight Trench and to house entire cities under its vaulted ceilings. | |

Alpha Complex in Paranoia. Unless it's actually an Elaborate Underground Base; the Game Master is invited to play fast and loose with even setting basics like this to keep players off guard. Heck, maybe it's actually a space station, or underwater, and "Outdoors" really is as instantly lethal as the propaganda claims. | |

Wonder Woman The barrier separating the semi Pocket Dimension of Themyscira/Paradise Island from the world at large usually looks like a dome from the inside, and the whole thing is invisible from the outside. While this dome can make it difficult for the Amazons to travel to the rest of the planet it does far more to keep outsiders from entering than it does to isolate those who live within it. Wonder Woman (1987): The Lansanarian Disk has multiple funtions but the most prevalent is it's ablilty to act as a dome shaped sheild over the whole of Themyscira. By the end of The Legend of Wonder Woman (2016) Themyscira is domed and floating in space with nearly all of the inhabitants dead due to the infighting and war that rose between the Greek gods as they realized their power was going to fade entirely if they didn't get new worshipers. |

"The Psychohistorians": During its peak, the (first) Galactic Empire made Trantor its capital planet. Its city grew to encompass the world, and developed multiple layers as well. However, the topmost layer is domed over, ironically creating habitable areas; plant life has even managed to gain a foothold on the surfaces of the artificial structures. Everybody just chooses to live in enclosed sectors. This is inherited behaviour from their ancient ancestors on Earth, as depicted in The Caves of Steel. | |

In World of Warcraft: Legion, it's revealed that the ancient Night Elf city of Suramar survived the Sundering due to the Grand Magistrix erecting a domed energy shield. The shield was left intact for the following 10,000 years and only dropped recently when the Legion made it clear the Nightborne must do so and accept Legion rule or face annihilation. | |

A Miracle of Science: The two creators have Shown Their Work by averting this with a detailed explanation of why it's an Averted Trope appearing in The Rant under one of the strips.note The gist of it is that it would severely limit the expansion of the city, be hideously expensive without some kind of Applied Phlebotinum and hundreds of people would die if it were damaged by accident or sabotage. | |

In the Planescape campaign, there's the City of Glass on the Elemental Plane of Water. The name is kind of a misnomer: most of the great sphere enclosing the settlement is actually made of a rare substance called Eternal Ice (which is ice that does not melt) with glass over it. It is populated by a variety of races, both native to the Plane and immigrants from elsewhere, and half of the sphere is kept flooded to accommodate water-breathing species. Despite the assertions of its citizens and officials, the City of Glass' dome has broken several times in the past due to errant spellcasting... but since the Elemental Plane of Water has subjective directional gravity, the air and water mostly stayed where they were. The vandals were still put to death, however. | |

Star Wars: The Clone Wars: "Bombad Jedi" reveals that the cities on Rodia are located under domes, which have sections that can be opened to let starships fly through. Due to the innumerable wars fought by Mandalorians against one another for thousands of years, the surface of their homeworld now mostly consists of barren desert. As such, all of the cities of Mandalore are build inside large domes whose volumes are almost entirely filled by clusters of buildings piled around and on top of each other. |

The Dune Wars mod for Civilization IV has domed Holtzman shields as a type of city fortification. However, there is a lasgun-armed unit that ignores the shield (Gameplay and Story Segregation, since, in the novels, firing a laser at a Holtzman shield invariably leads to a nuclear-scale explosion; if the mod implemented this mechanic, the unit would have been destroyed and the city would have been wiped out or heavily damaged). | |

Vorkosigan Saga: The books feature two fairly important planets whose entire population is contained by these due to in-progress terraforming: Beta Colony (the homeworld of Miles Vorkosigan's mother), and Komarr (annexed by Barrayar a generation ago lest it gets bribed or strongarmed into permitting another invasion). The technological and social implications are rather well discussed. The Cetagandans also use "force domes", but they can be switched on and off, and are used for temporary containment (prison camp) or just as security perimeters (the Celestial Garden). It's also possible to control the weather within the dome, which ensures the Emperor in the Celestial Garden doesn't get rained on. |

The alien Masters in The Tripods use domes to recreate their home planet's atmosphere on Earth. However this is only meant as a temporary measure before they convert Earth's atmosphere to one like their own world. Once La Résistance discover this, they have to find a means of cracking open the domed cities to kill the Masters inside. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: Aquas, an undersea version, is one of the quirkier outposts of the Alphatian Empire in the Mystara setting. After the Alphatian mainland sinks in the Wrath of the Immortals Adventure Path, Aquas becomes the new capital of what's left of the Empire. At least, what's left on the outer world. In the Planescape campaign, there's the City of Glass on the Elemental Plane of Water. The name is kind of a misnomer: most of the great sphere enclosing the settlement is actually made of a rare substance called Eternal Ice (which is ice that does not melt) with glass over it. It is populated by a variety of races, both native to the Plane and immigrants from elsewhere, and half of the sphere is kept flooded to accommodate water-breathing species. Despite the assertions of its citizens and officials, the City of Glass' dome has broken several times in the past due to errant spellcasting... but since the Elemental Plane of Water has subjective directional gravity, the air and water mostly stayed where they were. The vandals were still put to death, however. |

Finder: Anvard, as well as some others that don't really come into the story much. Anvard's design is a variation on the usual trope, though- rather than being a normal city with a big dome on top, it's built in layers, and in most parts of the city, you'd never see the dome itself. It was also built so long ago that the inhabitants don't really know how it works, and is starting to break down. No one seems to be that alarmed, though. | |

The Big O: Paradigm City isn't completely domed, but the domes are where the rich people live. Later on, when the dramatic revelations start piling up, it's strongly implied that the rest of the city is under a dome too, just a dome so large that they don't know it's there. However, the finale implies the "larger dome" is not a literal dome, but in fact the edge of reality. | |

Superman: Argo City, Supergirl's home-town. Supergirl's father Zor-El created a force-field bubble that enabled the city survive Krypton's destruction. Eventually it ended up as a Doomed Hometown, though. In one of her adventures, Kara visits the Bottle City of Kandor... and almost destroys it by accident (in Supergirl Vol 1 #2). In Elseworld's Finest: Supergirl & Batgirl, Gotham is enclosed under a domed force-field. One decade before the beginning of the story, Batgirl built the dome, banned all parahumans and declared that no one entered or left her city without her permission. The Bottle City of Kandor, a Kryptonian city miniaturized by Brainiac. In Krypton No More, Supergirl -apparently- smashes it, claiming it is no real (long story). Brainiac creates domed force-fields around whole cities, shrinks them and then abducts them. Superman: Brainiac shows he keeps dozens of them inside his ship. The first scene narrates how he reduced Kandor, and later he shrinks Metropolis. In Last Daughter of Krypton, Reign spreads a domed energy force-field around New York as fighting Supergirl to prevent other heroes from coming and helping Kara out. In Pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths comics, Lori Lemaris's Atlantis survived its sinking with a giant dome. They later removed the dome after biologically changing themselves into merpeople to survive underwater. Smallville on the Pocket Universe Earth was protected by a force-field bubble that provides enough atmosphere for its residents, though it eventually fails as the Phantom Zone criminals destroy the field's generator in The Supergirl Saga. |

Colony 6 in Xenoblade Chronicles 1 isn't an example when you are playing the game, but in the backstory of the Colony, it is said to have been, and some of the architecture left after it's been taken back from the Mechon attacked indicates as much also. Additionally, if you talk to a NPC after rebuilding the Colony, they will talk about one of the major weaknesses of this trope: the fact that if an attack were to happen, it would be very difficult to get many people out due to the entire place being enclosed. | |

Foundation Series: "The Psychohistorians": During its peak, the (first) Galactic Empire made Trantor its capital planet. Its city grew to encompass the world, and developed multiple layers as well. However, the topmost layer is domed over, ironically creating habitable areas; plant life has even managed to gain a foothold on the surfaces of the artificial structures. Everybody just chooses to live in enclosed sectors. This is inherited behaviour from their ancient ancestors on Earth, as depicted in The Caves of Steel. "The Mule": The largest city of Haven II is built under rock, with an artificial light at the top of the dome to create the illusion of a young sun in the sky. |

In G-Police the various sections of Earth's colony on the Jovian moon Calliso are contained within domes to contain a breathable atmosphere. The domes appear to be made of a mesh of laser beams but they make a metalic clanging sound if they are rammed. In one mission some terrorists hijack a train-load of bombs and attempt to detonate them in one of the tunnels that connect these domes in an attempt to fracture them. | |

Then, in an effective Reveal Shot, Kong hurls a tree-made spear into the sky, revealing that it's actually an Artificial Outdoors Display, the Perpetual Storm surrounding the island having grown to the point that Monarch needs to enclose Kong in a massive high-tech containment cell to protect him, much to his frustration. | |

Doctor Who: The Citadel of the Time Lords on Gallifrey. Notable in that it seems the dome is just there to look pretty. Played straight, however, with the Thal Dome and the Kaled Dome in "Genesis of the Daleks". Both are meant to protect their inhabitants against both hostile bombardment and the chemical and radioactive contamination from its Forever War. |

Blake's 7: Most of the pilot episode is set in a Domed City in an After the End Earth. The outside world is shown to be quite habitable with birdlife and drinkable water, so the implication is that the dome is now used as a further means of controlling the populace. And in "Powerplay" the entrance to an alien city is portrayed by a real-life domed building, presumably a water reservoir or underground chemical tank. |

The Caves of Steel: All of Earth's population live in Cities (areas such as New York, Baltimore, and Washington grew into a single city), areas enclosed under massive domes. This is tied to humanity developing a neurosis about the open air. The underground cities of Earth were built for greater efficiency under the conditions of serious overpopulation. | |

Babylon 5: a love affair with Domed Hometown if there ever was one. Earthdome, capital of the Earth Alliance, is Geneva under a dome or series of domes. Marsdome and other Mars cities are under domes. The science base studying the Shadow vessel on Ganymede featured a large dome under which the ship was kept and which shattered when it took off. The "capital city" of the Shadows on Z'Ha'Dum was underground and featured a large dome. By extension, several human starship designs are fundamentally spherical, with the Babylon stations being a collection of spherical and cylindrical sections. | |

In Surviving Mars, this is the only residence for Mars colonists. All Martianborn have one. While this is completely unlike what a real Mars colony would look like for engineering reasons, it's an Acceptable Break from Reality so that the player can see what's happening inside the habitation. If you get the Green Planet DLC, you can terraform Mars to fix the temperature and the atmosphere. Your triumphant final act will be to take the lids off the domes. Doing so also allows the player to designate a capital, a large habitation area without a dome. |

In Quatermass II, Professor Quatermass shows off a concept drawing of his planned Moonbase, which has domed buildings to provide an atmosphere on the airless Moon. He's surprised to find a chemical planet in Britain has the same domed buildings... because aliens are using it during their Hostile Terraforming of the Earth. | |
