Lobopolis

Overview
A medium sized town just off the highway between the Bardonian capital of Dorasterrock and Prata. They are part of Bardonia. The founder is known as LobsterLights, it was founded on 2020/11/25, and later abandoned. However on 2022/7/1, KaberBaber069 reclaimed Lobopolis, with it gaining several members. A "puppet town" called Tekzekconokalakno was established by player DoubR not long after, it was later unclaimed and re-claimed by Dorasterrock. Lobopolis consists of two main "suburbs", Lobopolis proper and Scipiu (sɪpiu, SIP-ee-oo), Scipiu being captured on 2022/7/18 from the squatter Kingdom of Hustarium, Scipiu being their capital.

History
The village was founded a the crossroads between the highway to Dorasterrock and (unnamed river). due to it's proximity to the river, the land is extremely fertile for farming. These conditions proved to be ideal for both crops and animals, and the Lobopolis Ranch was quickly constructed on it's banks. The city quickly became an economic hub of Bardonia due to it's central location. It's largest building, the Lobopolis Longhouse, now sits at the bottom of the sunken section of the village.

In the early morning of January the 30th 2021 Lobopolis was struck by a multitude of natural disasters causing the centre of the city to sink deep into the earth. Water began filling the hole that same day. The citizens attempted to pick up the pieces of their broken city, but the heart of the city had sunk that day as well. Slowly over the course of several months the citizens migrated to larger population centres due to poor leadership, limited access to housing and supplies, and an increased need for protection.

Lobopolis was eventually abandoned by it's final resident at an unknown later date, and was used for squatting for somewhere up to a year. On July 1st 2022, KaberBaber069 discovered the town and reclaimed it. Due to his efforts, the town is finally picking up the pieces of the sunken city, and the town is beginning to be repaired.

Economy
Prior to being abandoned, Lobopolis was well known for their local ranch, brewery and blacksmith. They also hosted a weekly farmers market. The town attempted to expand into the fishing industry after the sinking, but found it to be unprofitable. Currently, Lobopolis is a farming town. The old Blacksmith is one of the few landmarks of the economy that remain. The old blacksmith was replaced by a new one in the centre of town on the 2022/07/09

Religion
Prior to being abandoned, they had a Fleurist Monument in the center of town. The town religion makeup was 67% Fleurist and 33% Dandelism. The current town is 12.5% Ickist and 87.5% Irreligious

Arena
The arena was built by several Lobopians in early July, on the road from the Town Hall to the Bridge. It's first fight was between Lobopians AngrySlothMC and Wicket_the_ewok. a few days later the first arena event occurred, with several fighters facing off from Lobopolis and from the Imperium in general. Lobopian fighters were facing off for the new role of General, and non-lobopians fought for fun. Capna won the tournament, and KeinMann became general. The fights lasted 2 and a half hours on 2022/07/16.

Scipiu
Scipiu is a suburb of Lobopolis with a current population of one. It was formed as a small squatter town north of the then abandoned Lobopolis. The Kingdom of Hustarium, unrecognised by any state, was then formed with Scipiu as it's largest city. Not much is known about the population of Scipiu at this time, or its early history, but at least 4 people lived in the town at it's peak. Several walls were set up by the government of Hustarium, surrounding the main Scipiu city. Scipiu and Hustarium had it's last log on in early June of 2022, and was unclaimed due to inactivity on 2022/7/18, and the main city was very quickly claimed by nearby Bardonian city Lobopolis, a road was built from the Lobopolis market to Scipiu, and the first player living in the village since early June moved in on the same day. The village is currently being terraformed, and as such, no houses or buildings from the previous Scipiu city currently remain, apart from the wall.
