Cratesia is a town situated in Nucilandia, known for its unique architecture and location. The town is built on a hill with a large hole in the middle, which serves as the central feature of the town. The most important structures of the town are situated underground, alongside the walls of the hill's pit.

The town is protected by a wall at the top of the hill, offering a commanding view of the surrounding forests. These forests provide natural resources and shelter for the town's inhabitants.

Name

The name "Cratesia" is derived from its unique location, built within a crater-shaped hole in the middle of a hill. It is a combination of the word "crater" and the termination "ia", and it perfectly captures the town's connection to its geographic features and serves as a reminder of its unique history and culture.

History

Cratesia was first discovered and settled sometime in 2019 by Hori, who was looking for a new home in the dense forests of the Nucilandian wilderness. A village was officially established in December 2019 when Coninstar joined him and a pallisade wall was built for protection.

In early 2023, Cratesia had seen a period of rapid and unprecedented growth. The pallisade walls were replaced by fortified stone walls with proper battlements, the keep was completed, and the hillside was completely filled with buildings.

Throughout its history, Cratesia has faced numerous challenges, including attacks from Zaganian raiders. However, the town's resilient inhabitants have always managed to overcome these obstacles and maintain their way of life.

Conflicts

Cratesia was sporadically attacked by Zaganian raiders, though this never proved to be anything more than an annoyance, as the town's pallisade was enough to stop them most of the time. Ever since proper walls have been build in February 2023, the raiders were unable to enter the town and could be fought from the safety of the wall's battlements, or simply ignored.

Geography

Cratesia is situated on a hill in the wilderness of Nucilandia. The surrounding forests offer plenty of building material and hunting ground, and steep walls of the crater provide natural protection from the elements.

Culture

Cratesia has a rich culture and history, with many traditions and customs passed down through generations. The town's library is a popular destination for scholars from through Nucilandia, offering a wide variety of books and tomes.

The town's residents have adapted to this unique environment by building their homes and businesses into the hillsides, creating a distinctive architectural style that is still evident in the town today.

Economy

Cratesia's economy is primarily based on livestock farming and trade, with many farmers and merchants calling the town home. The underground vault is a large secured warehouse, located in the middle of the town, under the park, and serves as testament to the town's wealth.

The town's unique architecture and location also make it a popular destination for tourists, further bolstering its economy.

Transportation

Cratesia is most readily accesible by train, having direct connections with Solara and Enada.

It is also well-connected by road, being connected to Solara, Veneței, and other villages.
