New Bjornstahl
New Bjornstahl is a village on Vintage Civ and is part of Lazuli Lake District.
Etymology
New Bjornstahl is named in commemoration of the refugee town of Bjornstahl, founded in early Civcraft 1.0 (c. 2012) after 90% of the population of the city of Kizantium was imprisoned by the Columbian Ancap mafia for peacefully protesting the vault policies of well-known rich nerd Foofed. The city flourished for a handful of weeks, with a sudden population boom and ensuing collapse, as the village ghetto was resulting in nightly brawls and in-fighting. Bjornstahl is a combination of German and Finnish words meaning "Steel Bear."
History
Isaac (formerly known as ZANETNT) and his spouse were invited to Lazuli by Simple Bastard a short while after the start of VintageCiv 1.0, and they started their own private homestead nearby. A local tourist attraction, the town guidebook writes:
Spend some time in quiet introspection at the Orthodox Church, and then get hammered on mead (or BYOVodka in true Orthodox fashion) at the Steel Bear Tavern, followed by taking the kids to get bitten by a raccoon at the petting zoo in the agricultural district, and more!
As of mid-March, there has been no crises or notable events in the town. The village has a clothier squatting outside the front gates indefinitely, named Mostafa. He is wanted by local authorities due to offering illegal escort services.
