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 the 11th of July 2021, the third member to join Norvos named "IslandANZAC" was exploring west, and journeyed through a desert meeting a kind person from a town further west, "Ederan". The town offered the Norvian lots of gifts, and soon the Norvian passed this information onto Vistulicus, creating a strong alliance with the town. IslandANZAC and Vistulicus began planning a way to gain independence from GUS (Grand union of Sorligste), who was at that time occupying the land.

The next day Vistulicus was alerted that GUS needed help defeating some insurgents to the west. It was at this time he found out that their allies, "Ederan" were declaring independence from the GUS. These must have been the insurgents that they were referring to. Quickly a plan was formed to turn on the GUS at the battle, and with the help of their allies in Ederan, they would declare independence for themselves. However this didn't happen, because at the battle, the GUS attacked the Ederans before the war was supposed to begin, leading to confusion within the Ederan's ranks and ultimately a loss. However this did not stop IslandANZAC from killing two GUS soldiers who had split up from the rest of their force on the way back.

Soon there was a lot of disruption within Norvos, and an almost civil-war stance as half of Norvos were resentful towards Vistulicus for not leading the Norvians into battle against the GUS soldiers. This ultimately caused a few members to leave with Island and settle elsewhere, but they would come back in the future.

A meeting was organised between HighKing_Castie, IslandANZAC and WillAtomic. It was decided that the Norvians that had left Norvos, would support Castie in a rebellion and would place Castie in-charge of Norvos, as Castie was also irritated by Vistulicus's actions but was still in Norvos at the time. Although this also didn't occur because the leadership of the town was given over to HighKing_Castie, as he was the creator of the cities' fortifications. Under his leadership the town started a rapid growth annexing lots of empty land and aqcuiring lots of new citizens. Now Norvos is trying to become an entire province in the Northwest of Sorligste.

As of the 27/08/2021 A election was held by Mayor Castie, the election was to decide the town name to NorvosXLilia with a vote of 100% sticking with the old name. For a few minutes the town was "NorvosXLilia", During the event many memes were made in favour of the original name.

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. Due to it's start as a mining town it's still in the towns nature that the citizens of Norvos voluntarily help the town growing and do mining or production activities to make money. The town doesn't take contractors for hire and most people don't use public storage because they prefer private property with the exception of farms and utilities.

Religion
The town is secular, allowing all religions. Currently, the Fesdrosian religion has a temple there. There are rumors about another religion starting in Norvos.

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. Further west of the lake there is a large desert that recently has seen some settling by Norvos.

The city is divided in three areas: the interior, the farmland and the desert. People live in the interior of the city where most utilities are kept. Meanwhile in the farmland of the city, many crops are grown and animals are kept. In the desert there is also some housing with some utilities.

Drug Activity
As of the time of updating the wiki, there is only one known supplier of drugs, stinkypoo06 is currently the only drug dealer with decent stock for a new dealer. Currently, the only person who has tested any drugs in Norvos is Noobatorian3301 who tested Meth. Only 3 members know of the current Meth Lab location. Also if reading this, buy drugs from Stinkypoo06 he sells pretty good drugs. With prices so low, it feels like you're getting away with something.

Conflicts
Currently, no major conflicts have happened apart from a mock war with the neighbouring region of Ato.
