History

Founding and Early History

Rodentia's lake was discovered by Basilissa on June 19th, 2020, where they dug a hole into a hill and set their spawn. The following day, Basilissa gathered friends at the site and established the town of Rodentia. Early development was quick, with the Rodents living communally out of a single, small building that housed their storage, production, and living quarters. Several pits were dug around the town; livestock was acquired, and a small farm around the lake was sown.

First Contact

On June 26th, NovaCeasar, the Princeps of the SPQR, happened upon Rodentia while scouting out the borders Vasticus, which was undergoing negotiations to enter the SPQR as a province. She was surprised to see Rodentia there, as the SPQR sought to create farms Vasticus' savannah, which Rodentia was almost entirely within. NovaCeasar offered the Rodents the chance to join the SPQR as a province separate from Vasticus. The Rodents agreed to enter negotiations, but the SPQR's transition from CivClassic to CivRealms—which includes a change in its constitution and a shift to a republican government—has stalled any progress.

Geography

Rodentia lays claim to roughly 33,500 m2 in the savannah on the southern coast of the continent. The settlement is centered around a small lake, around which crops grow well. <infobox>
