'''New Danzilona''' (abbreviated as '''NDZ''') was a direct democracy located in [[Civcraft 2.0|Civcraft 2.0's]] +,+ quadrant. It was on the [[CIC]] Yellow rail line, in between the [[Holy Tree]] and [[Breslau]] stops. There were also a number of other international and regional rail lines which connect directly to the central rail station in New Danzilona.
 
With a long history dating from the very first day of the server to the very last, New Danzilona was founded by residents of its previous iteration on [[CivCraft 1.0|Civcraft 1.0]], Danzilona. Initially a small agrarian village located on a snowy plateau, NDZ grew to be a prominent international city following its involvement in a myriad of conflicts, including Rancuneus's Attacks, the [[Recharge War]], and its conflict with [[Melonwood|Monaco]], earning the city its reputation of being resilient and no-nonsense. Regional cooperation during these conflicts led NDZ to be pivotal in the founding of the [[United Provinces of the Plus Plus]] (U3P), crafting a community that would last for years to come, even after the end of Civcraft.
 
After a peaceful summer of 2014, New Danzilona's population was halved following the [[Yurtstead War|Riverford War]], which caused anti-war residents to leave, the [[New Danzilona#The Danzilonan Federation|federal government]] to collapse, a [[Aeginan independence movement|member of its federation to attempt to secede]], and an emergency council to fill the power vacuum in the city for the subseqent month. NDZ stabilized by the end of the first quarter of 2015 and, though it would never again reach its previous level of prominence, remained a regional power with an even more tight-knit community than before. The latter third of NDZ's history revolved around cleaning and revitalizing old builds and completing new ones, like the [[New Danzilona#New Danzilona Central Station|Central Station]].
 
When 2.0 ended, the remaining Danzilonans would go on to found [[Nova Danzilona]] on [[Civcraft 3.0]].

In March, the NDZHL was created by RoarkLeSkif.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/NDZHL/comments/20o1rl/the_rink_so_far_ready_for_some_teams/</ref>Civcraft hockey was a uniquely Danzilonan invention that would come to define NDZ culture and its wider public image among the nations of the server. The NDZHL would run for three seasons, being commissioned by neondan99 and Wanado after Roark's departure from Civcraft, and it involved teams from cities located all across the server, including [[Mount Augusta (Civcraft 2.0)|Mt. Augusta]], [[SPQR]], [[Orion]], [[Aytos]], [[Senntisten]], and many U3P cities.
 
In early April, the recently formed Danzilonan Security Force attemped to pearl notorious raider phacad3 when he entered NDZ territory.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IMgYNXZ1lI</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/22df8o/ndzs_side_of_the_story/</ref> They were unsuccessful and received some backlash for it, as phacad3 was still on good terms with some cities. A week later, some of those who criticized the DSF would be fighting alongside them in one of the biggest battles of the [[Recharge War]], which took place in NDZ.
 
Later on in April and in May, NDZ saw a large influx of new residents. One of those residents, Weishaar, created the Danzmarket in early May. The Danzmarket was a piece of private property run by Weishaar (dubbed the Lorax of the Danzmarket) that contained an abundance of regulated shops. At one point, the Danzmarket was the third most active market in Civcraft.

The end of the summer saw the expansion of the Danzilonan Central Station, which quickly became one of NDZ's most famous landmarks.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/3kk5x9/central_station_expansion_underway/</ref>
 
On November 13th, Des and other Danzilonans who were pearled during the [[Nox War]], like TheTrackball and JPEGz, were freed at the end of the war and defeat of Nox.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/3sotia/nox_innocents_being_freed_now/</ref> While they were pearled, both the central station and the city hall were completed, making for a pretty nice looking fountain area.<ref>https://i.imgur.com/hPQI2Q1.png</ref>
 
NDZ also enjoyed some festivities on Halloween.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/3ps3b4/welcome_to_boo_danzilona/</ref>

In early spring 2014, in response to a recent massive conflict with a neighboring city and consequent invasion of NDZ,<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1yns56/griefers_cheshirelulcat_and_makanla_and_other/</ref> Danzilonans peakman2 and TheTrackball founded the Danzilonan Security Force, or DSF. The DSF acted as a private military task force that has assigned itself with the duty of protecting NDZ, the U3P, and their allies. Though the DSF was not run by NDZ and was not legally required to protect and fight for the federation, it was very much obliged to do so, as most if not all of the DSF's members were Danzilonan and played a huge part in NDZ's history and politics. However, contrary to popular belief, NDZ was not accountable for the DSF's actions.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2fpjrl/psa_what_is_the_dsf/</ref> The DSF had about six core members along with countless allies that had access to DSF supplies and facilities.
 
The DSF had about six core members along with countless allies that had access to DSF supplies and facilities. A number of DSF members took part not only in catching griefers and raiders within the U3P but also in many international combat operations, earning them the reputation as being apart of the "[[World Police]]." Two leaders of the DSF, TheTrackball and JPEGz, were perhaps the most well known across the server, and both of them would go on to join the WP organization [[Eden]].<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/3b8xsq/announcing_the_eden_group/</ref>They both took part in the Recharge War, [[Titan War]], and Nox War, to name a few.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/3p96bl/pictures_from_the_front/</ref>JPEGz himself would also be a founding member of the original [[Mir]] as Lysika was an old friend of his.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/3hbait/official_mir_response/</ref>
 
During the Yurtstead War, an army controlled by the DZF government was created,<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2fvfan/vote_the_nationalization_of_defense_act/</ref> but it was short-lived, as the federal government collapsed less than a week later.
