Amsterdam is a small historic town of the [[Grand Imperium|Grand Imperium]], located in the -,- quadrant southwest of [[Lusitania|Lusitania]] and west of [[Varkonia|Varkonia]] across the [[Medi Sea]]. The town is located in an attractive and strategically-important river valley, surrounded by towering mountains to the east and west.
 
=== History ===
 
Amsterdam was the largest settlement and presumed capital of the nation of the Revolutionary Confederation, a small nation which laid claim to the lands of the western Medi Sea in mid-2019. The exact cause and date of the fall of the city is unclear, but it's cause was mostly due to inactivity of the city's founder, all that is known is that by October 2018 the nation's representatives did not respond to a survey of active nations, suggesting the city had already been abandoned. The city had suffered both minor and major acts of griefing on various aspects of the city, but inspection of the city's unlocked chests gave no indication of theft, and the town's ambitious street plans remained unfulfilled.
 
Later nations came and went without leaving their mark on the town. The nation of Wallachia claimed the land on 7th September 2018, and the nation of Highrock, led by Krypticly, Sladerish, and EvasiveObject, claimed the land on the 11th September 2019. By early 2020, however, the nation appeared inactive and after the nation did not post updated claims during a review of territory claims in January 2020, the city of Amsterdam was once again marked as uninhabited. A sign in one of the dry canals reading '#RestoreAmsterdam' gave some indication of the intent of these later nations.
