City of Norvos

Norvos is a Soumerian town located southeast of Lumaire, regional the capital. Founded on July 7th 2021, it began as a logging and mining town but soon evolved into a trading city when the town started seeing more people joining.

The town has no taxes on its citizen, provides everyone with basic iron gear and has got a 0% unemployment rate. Additionally, all citizens have diamond armor and tools making its military noticeably effective.

History
The city was founded on July 7th 2021 by Vistulicus when he thought the taiga could've been a profitable place to set camp. Later people joined him and the small lumbering settlement expanded into a fortified town with big stone walls and many other structures.

On July 13th 2021, a Tortugan captain visited the town and accidentally started a fight with one of the town's citizens, Emiliannus. In the fight the citizen was killed and looted twice while the Tortugan captain's horse was killed. After the fight the mayor tried to talk things out with the Tortugan captain to explain that what happened had been an accident and offering 2.4k as compensation for the horse in exchange for the loot back. Unfortunately the Tortugan captain turned down the money and threatened the town before leaving.

In preparation for the war that would occur the 14th of July against a town claiming independence from Sorgliste, Norvos sent a scout to damage their supplies and gather intel. After doing some damage, the scout was found and he proceeded to kill himself in lava before getting capture by the enemy.

The leadership of the town was given over to HighKing_Castie, who is also the creator of the cities' fortifications.

Culture
Despite not being a culturally rich town and having being founded only recently, the town's members are pretty culturally diverse. The town has its own unique official religion and its citizens aren't all from Sorgliste. Thanks to this the town has developed to be quite tolerant towards other people's culture.

Religion
The town is secular, allowing all religions. Currently, the Fesdrosian religion has a temple there.

Geography and Buildings
Norvos is a town situated on a plains and a taiga biome. It's surrounded by mainly taiga, plains, forests and wooden hills, which makes it the perfect location for a lumber town, though it made defending the town slightly harder on the sides with forests. The city has a dry river running across it and a lake to the west.

The city is divided in two areas, the interior and exterior. People live in the interior of the city where most utilities are kept. Meanwhile in the exterior of the city, many crops are grown and a market is being built.
