Matrand
Matrand is a small, but elegant town, located in Western Sweden. This town claims not to specialize in anything yet, however, there are plenty of things that make it unique. It is the only town with a proper train station. It is also the only town to have a church. It was founded by _CrA6914, with help from NordicFenris, on the 14 July, 2019.
History
Being such a young town, it does not have much of a history at the time. What is known is that an agreement was made between _CrA6914 and NordicFenris: in return for financial aid to make the town, Matrand joined the nation of the Kalmar Union. Since being created, the town has had a connection to the Trans-Scandinavian Railway built to it and that it has directly led to another town being invited to the nation. Recently, when a player named Nindu arrived in the town, he was mistaken as a raider but was actually a trader. This marks the first time that the army has officially been called out to assist a town in the nation. This encounter led to King NordicFenris reaching out to the town of Hardanger.
Architecture
The Grand Church
Matrand is the only town to have a church. This all the more unique when you realize that Christians are an incredibly small demographic within the country.
The Tower of Light
This was built in the town center in order to put Matrand on the map, and it shows. This building was ornately designed by _CrA6914.
The CTM headquarters
It's the tallest building in the town and the first skyscraper ever built. It has been built in August 2019 in collaboration with nicosecci to host the current CTM headquarters. It's mostly made up of stained glass and concrete, with a squared pattern.
Transportation
Matrand Railway Station
Matrand railway station is located west of the town and it's operated by CTM. It connects up lines 1 and 7 and is a major interchange within the network.
The Western Scandinavian Highway Network (WSHN) Project will be composed of 5 highways, each connecting Western Scandinavia with elevated/ground level highways in order to increase the economic growth of each town/nation and hopefully increase the trade as well. WSHN1 connects Matrand to Oslo and Hardanger and WSHN2 connects Matrand with Gothenburg in the south. WSHN3 Will connect Matrand to Skratta and both WSHN4 and 5 is still in its planning phase.
