Amos

The Holy City of Amos is a city within the The Kingdom of Theios-Essukdal which saw an attempted attack by bandits on March 14th 2020 where a global coalition decisively defeated several bandits hiding in an ambush in a netherrack cave near its portal entrance in Operation Netherrack lead by Theios-Essukdalad, Viodoxan, and numerous other national leaders as well as organizations including the Soleannan Spirits and Handy Helpers.

It is said by mythics of Amos that the people of Amos arrived from the Pyramids of Nasrid on the long dead world of Jagdas. It is also said that the same people that landed on Rathnir were instructed by the slumbering god Snak'geshem to construct the Pyramid of Asir. Meanwhile, on Rathnir at the time of the Nasridi peoples arrival, part of the bustling city of Reunil was crushed by the Pyramids landing in their river, but the arrival of the Nasridi would usher in a new Golden Age for the Geshemi-subjugated Erekenthiin people. Since the grief Amos had been abandoned and destroyed. It was a shell of it's former self, and there were no plans to revitalize the city. The previous owner of Amos moved to Ayesinco after he abandoned Amos due to loss of interest.

Recently, when players RatMeatJones and XXXtinction took the city of Amos under their wings, things started to change. Rat started to revitalize the city again and together with XXX, the main architect of the city that migrated to the city after hearing of what happened to the Holy City, they made Amos prosperous again. The City now holds some of the most holy sites in the Theiosist religion. This new period of revivalism in the history of the city is called "The Rebirth of Amos"

History
Amos was founded on the 2nd day of Rathnir, as a lighthouse outpost on the opposite shore along the Sea of Pearls. It stayed like this, slowly developing and gathering resources to combat with the intense upkeep at the time, until it became a major Yimmu-Audalian outpost on the Sea of Pearls.

Second Period
The Second Period of Amos was one of the most prosperous periods of Amos, where upkeep was dealt with and the city expanded along the major sections of the Delta and the Pyramid of Asir was built. Many infrastructure projects were completed during this age, including the road system. Along with many other improvements, this age was the early golden age of the city. The city was the first non-capital city to be directly incorporated into the nation of Yimmu-Audal due to the switch to lands. Now, due to Yimmu-Audal's current position as one of the largest empires of Rathnir, and it's proximity to Urnu-Arrak, many projects have been completed or are under construction or are being planed to increase trade, with some being the Sea-Pickle Sea Route from Urnu-Arrak to Amos.

Destruction of Amos
The destruction of Amos saw an attempted attack by bandits on March 14th 2020 where a global coalition decisively defeated several bandits hiding in an ambush in a netherrack cave near its portal entrance in Operation Netherrack lead by Theios-Essukdalad, Viodoxan, and numerous other national leaders as well as organizations including the Soleannan Spirits and Handy Helpers.

The Rebirth of Amos
The rebirth of the Holy City of Amos is the period that started on the 21st of March 2021 and is still ungoing. Builders RatMeatJones and XXXtinction have done wonders for the city. To be Continued.

Geography
Amos is located on the Sea of Pearls, and is a major port in Central Alteniquia. It is situated on the Tri-River Delta (Of which only the middle river is named; Snakes Bend) and is build on Multiple islands. It's explorers have ventured as far as Etscharien, and have gone all the way to the opposite side of the continent, to Alteniquia Minor.

Economy and Architecture
A large portion of the income comes from mining expeditions and nether hunts, but the largest part of Amos its economy comes from charity. The holy city is a place where pilgrim's visit frequently and they leave behind gifts, of which the city can be sustained. The architecture is a creole blend of Yimmu-Audalian and Erekenthiin, along with other real-life influences, such as Greek and Sumerian. The architectural style has evolved to blend geometry with sandstone a style created by the town's main architect XXXtinction, and with new spruce production and imports of terracotta, this style is flourishing.

Erekenthiin Peoples
Main article: Erekenthiin People

The Erekenthiin hail from the savanna to the north of Amos, where they then migrated south to the Tri-River Delta. They settled down for many years until being conquered by the Geshemi, which in turn fell apart due to the arrival of the Yimmu-Audalads, the predecessor of Theios-Essukdal.

Nasridi/Snakes Bend Peoples
"The once warring tribes of the Snakes Bend Delta fought against each other for resources and food in the scarce desert for a few hundred years. By the time colonization of the Unnamed Sea to the north had begun, they tribes began to take notice of this shift. Soon enough, they had banded together and had united the Snakes Bend Delta under the rule of architecture2. Then as an even greater shift as they had almost no infrastructure they joined the Empire of Yimmu-Audal in their efforts, and began to build up their local region very quickly, through irrigation projects and farming. Before the collapse, Nasrid was a rapidly growing city with 1 person, the founder, architecture2.

''The 17 assorted tribes of the Delta each did their own part, with many of them focusing on fishing and farming, but also a select few tribes were assigned to stoneworking, sandstone-mining, and architecture. Over time, as the culture of the Yimmu-Audal began to diffuse into the tribes practices, they reorganized themselves and developed into many separate regions, with many districts evolving like the Phir Garden and The Central Temple."''

This was the main history for the Jagdasian Nasridi. Now the Nasridi have molded themselves into a unique and prosperous society, intermarrying with the native Erekenthiin people. The Second Phir Garden is currently being constructed while the Central Temple has manifested itself as the prosperous main island. After the Great Pyramids stuck land, they vowed to never split up again and still hold strong to this day.
