Chickenheim
Chickenheim is settlement found roughly north from spawn on a peninsula. The central hub is a floating market above the ocean and shore. However, recently a wall has been built and homes have been established on land. The civilization is somewhat advanced, with the majority of it's citizens being equipped with diamond armor in it's latter days. Chickenheim was (very likely) blown to smithereens by participants 952, 2, and one other one I can't rememeber. |

History
Chickenheim was formed when 2 neighboring settlements (one named Cobblehenge and the other unnamed) merged for safety and security. Since, it has expanded and grown in prosperity. During session 2 of day 1, the nation's first healer was able to finally craft bandages, which marked the turning point in technological advances, with the common distribution of iron following during session 1 of day 2. The only other relevant events since have been a recent bed robbing affair (that citizen's suspect to have been foreign), and a infestation of mobs in the mines (which has since been somewhat resolved).
Economy
The economy is somewhat communistic, with most resources being openly available to the public via the storage. However, there is a blacksmithing forge where miners deposit stone and exchange iron in return for desired gear from the blacksmith. Additionally, food is always readily available for taking, since most choose to fish during the night and there is an overabundance of berries (via the farm outside).
The class distribution is somewhat skewed, with there being a larger amount of miners than the rest of the classes. Because of this, the nation is quickly advancing through the different tiers of tools and equipment, with enchanting being just on the horizon.
Information on the current class dispersion is readily available on organized signs and books in the market.
Government
The leader of Chickenheim was player 1000. She arose to power under a disorganized election (which was pretty much unanimous in her favor). In her time as leader, she was the face of Chickenheim, going to other nations to resolve conflicts arisen by bad press, rumors, and bad actors from Chickenheim.
Foreign affairs
In the early days of Chickenheim, players 840 and 952 asserted the nation's prosperity to other colonies to maintain peace. However, this lead to other nations leaving Chickenheim out of any collaborative organizations out of fear for their power. Additionally, rumors would spread about Chickenheim actually being responsible for the cannibal attacks, which is just load of hooey. Throughout this however, the Black Sheep nation (located just south) stayed on mostly neutral terms with Chickenheim, likely due to more clear and frequent communication caused by their proximity.
The major events of foreign conflict for Chickenheim were the rumors of Sky City planning to raid Chickenheim (caused by an unknown bad actor from Sky City), the attack on Pittsburg (caused solely by the military leader at the time, 952), and the cannibal attack on Chickenheim near the end of the event (we absolutely whooped the cannibal's asses).
Military
Chickenheim's head of military, 952, was exiled near the middle of the event due to his abrupt assult on Pittsburg. Despite that, Chickenheim was known mainly for it's strong military due to bearing the best gear for a majority of the event. Although the guard force wasn't substantial, many saw Chickenheim as the largest threat on the server.
Culture
The only notable piece of culture are the few chickens in boats that are kept in the middle of the market (for some reason). "Chickenheim" as a name is derived from a chicken with the name "Bartholemew". It was fished up to the base from the water, and immediately became a cherished member of the civilization.
Additionally, a church was once in production in front of the main gates, but the build was never completed. The planned religion of worship in said church is unknown.
