Thule: Difference between revisions

Thule iswas a populous city near the center of the -,+ quadrant. Thule has rapidly growngrew in it's short existence from a small project to a cultural center and prosperous trade hub. Thule iswas the first underwater city on the second iteration of Civcraft.

Thule was first started in January 2015 by [[Xavter]] under the temporary name of the "North Atlantic Project" as a territory of the Western Empire. Together with [[TGCraft321]] he built a first underwater building at -10430,4560, which closely resembled the Krusty Krab.

Thule was officially founded by TGCraft321, [[Sanwi]], and Xavter in February 2015 at -8240,4210, after [[fk_54]] recommended it as a better location for a nether factory. The first big project, which was soon started is Thule's famous Torus, which with a diameter of 100 blocks later developed into the astonishing centre of the city. What would have been months work for just three people was done in three weeks, thanks to the help of close friends from [[Aeon]], [[Aytos]] and [[Etherium]]. Soon the plots at the southern end of the city, which was intended to be the housing district, the construction of a ring around Thule was begun. The construction of thing ring took several weeks, because entire underwater mountains had to be removed, about 150.000 blocks were dug out with gold tools, because of the repairing crisis at the time. Whilst the ring was being built, the city continued to grow and many new buildings were added. Very soon after the ring got finished, another big project, namely building a nether factory was completed, after countless hours of mining endstone and thanks to the generous help by the city of Aeon. Thule continued to grow and thanks to the nether factory and the shop plots in the torus, which were given out, quickly grew into a big trade hub.

Currently aA big wall around Thule iswas under construction, whichthe willplan was for it to allow the people of Thule to rise the sea up to a level of 128, toand create additional building space. Due to it's nature, this project iswas referred to as "reverse-[[Carson (Civcraft)|Carson]]".

Thule hashad no restrictions on trade; however, many in Thule believebelieved that wealth should be shared among the community. Thule is sometimes described as an AnCom city because of this, but many private enterprises exist within the city. The official stance from city leaders is that anyone can contribute as much as they want to the community and they can keep as much as they like for themselves.

Thule iswas a very tightknit community and using mumble iswas anconsidered essential. Having a lot of trust intoin each other, a lot of Thule's wealth iswas shared between the core players and so projects arewere usually completed as a community effort. Many people from Aytos and Etherium arewere close friends with the people from Thule and so most of the time the citizens of these cities spendspent their time in mumble together. AnyBoth [[Jargon#Newfriend|newfriends]] orand people who already havehad experience on the server andwere wantwelcome to join are always welcome.

Thule is currentlywas Neutral, it doesdid not involve itself with conflicts. A requirement for joining the city iswas not being involved directly with any factions that are in any conflicts.
