= Gerald =

Located within the +/+, Gerald was built around an NPC village discovered by Farful. Joined by former residents of Yellow Flower, and reformed members of The Withered, attempts to develop the village and preserve the villagers were made.

Gerald quickly developed a close tie with Agraria, and soon after Gerald's founding, the two were connected by rail line. This friendship kindled the first ideas of unifying the Cities of the +/+.

Farful, due to his status as founder, was named Yarl by the residents of Gerald. Farful soon after appointed Amoroy as Viceroy. Gerald then made the greatest leap in justice, in all of Civcraft. The concept of trial by sheep. Disheartened by the lack of justice individuals recieved in the Negatives, the Justice Sheep was selected from Gerald's flock, and its judgment reigned supreme.

The first Trial by Sheep was carried out against a member of a faction led by Corynthios and Sterk. Corynthios and Sterk had regularly defied the sovereignty Gerald maintained over its portal, and had carried out numerous looting sprees. While the ringleaders were pearled for actions against Columbia, the minor member was captured at the faction's camp located within the jungle to the East of Gerald. The next day, the first trial was carried out. The defendent was found innocent, and released within the nether.

After the public trial, the +/+ began to grow. Constantinople, then Communa were built, with Gerald working with both cities. Though Constantinople fell, Gerald played a role in the innitial organizing of the RSSR's government.

Then, Gerald went through as series of random attacks, with numerous snitches sniped from their locations. The Viceroy took action, and after an investigation, placed a bounty upon the perpetrator, Kinetic_Waffle. Kinetic_Waffle then threatened the city with destruction, unless the people of Gerald succumbed to his will. In a plan formed by the people of Gerald, Farful fled the city, telling allies of Kinetic's threat against the Geraldian people. Satisfied that Farful was gone, Kinetic then went on to rob not only his own people, but numerous innocent bystanders of their wealth.

With the Yarl absent, Gerald survived. The trend of residents leaving ended, leaving only the original members, and some close friends. Despite that, the S.E.A., first proposed by Gerald, was founded, with Gerald as a founding member.

Despite the positive growth, Gerald was griefed to such an extent, that a full revamp was required. Having assesed the risk of Kinetic issuing retribution as minimal, Farful returned to Gerald to aid in the rebuilding.

Though all the livestock of Gerald were slaughtered, the Holy Sheep remained.It was then, the people of Gerald realized the Guiding potential of the Sheep, and because of that, the chapter of the True Sheepocracy, began.

The new chapter of Gerald has proven fruitful for the city. FoxMcLeod3, a prominant member of Gerald, won a server wide tournament, while also winning a Drama Award. The Holy Sheep won a Drama award as well, having been found to be the most fair in all of Civcraft. Meanwhile, resident on leave, Jews_on_Parade was found to have the best name in all of Civcraft at the Drama Awards. Those victories, paired with new found growth, show signs of Gerald being on its way to a greater future.
