Seward (pronounced "soo-urd") was a Yukonian town founded and owned by ArcaPlays after leaving Nubia on January 9, 2021. The town is geographically located on the Seward Peninsula of Alaska, where the name of the town came from.

History

This section covers the history of Seward, including the previous town which existed prior.

Also, please note that much of the history is unknown, as very little to nothing was written down during the previous town's existence.

The Very Start

The history of the area which is now known as Seward started back on December 29, 2019 when a player name ii_Lion logged onto EarthMC for the first time. Not long after, Lion created a town called "Nome" in the IRL location of Nome, Alaska as a part of Kodiak. Very little is currently known about what went on during the time that Nome existed.

Fall of Nome

On August 24, 2020, ii_Lion logged off for the last time and never came on again. Nome would fall on October 6, 2020 after Lion's 42 day countdown finished. 2 months later on December 2, a former resident logged onto EMC and found Nome to be gone. He left a plaque in one of the houses, which was found by Arca when he first walked through the area. The plaque was moved next to the spawn. The plague stated that Nome had fallen and that the writer had built the docks of modern-day Seward. After Seward's fall, a player came in and removed the signs of the plaque.

Founding of Seward

Prior to the founding, Arca was the mayor of a Nubian town. He was a part of Nubia for a very long time until he made the decision to leave Nubia for unstated reasons. After scouting for a location for a new town near west Alaska, he found an abandoned town on the Seward Peninsula that he found favorable. He shortly after gave his town to someone in order to hold it, and then founded Seward and claimed a lot of the former town. At the time of founding, little to nothing was known about the area's history.

The Beginning of the End

On April 16 Arca temporarily quit EMC and would've needed to log on every now and then to keep Seward Alive. Near the start of May, a friend handled Arca's account and handed over Seward to a new mayor. Since then, Seward has changed hands a few times. As of writing, the last two citizens of Seward are approaching their player-data-wipe day. As kikkoman3 is automatically given mayor after Coffequx goes offline, the town's final countdown will begin. Once the town falls, as many artifacts that ArcaPlays left will be recovered and placed back in his hands.

The End

On August 19, 2021 Seward Collapsed. Its unknown whether somebody came through and looted a little but, but Starkiller1744 managed to recover as many items as he could and gave them to Arca. Not every item was recovered, as its believed someone came in before Star. The recovered items have been placed in Arca's basement museum at his house in Turkana. Besides items, Arca disassembled his Rabbit monument, as well as a grave of a Kraftier resident Arca and Star killed in July 2020, and placed it in Turkana, At the time, only 3 out of 4 of his rabbits had died. On August 21, 2021 the final rabbit, Sanosuke, drowned in the Pacific Ocean (-20686, -1870). Sanosuke was added to the rabbit monument. The remains of Sanosuke and the other rabbits are stored under the monument and in the museum basement.

(Former) Plans of the Future

In the future, its been planned to make Seward the largest westernmost town on EMC. With plans to have a large residential area, as well as a large industrial sector in order to set up the future. The town is set to expand mostly west until it hits the coast of the southwest of the peninsula, as well as north for more residential space. Large sections of the mountain cutting the town in half were flattened down to y95 in order to place houses in what is called "High Residential" with more flatting to the east coming soon. An area for manual and automatic farming is almost completed as of writing to the east of the storage building. A shopping district is planned to be south of this, with shops of different kinds to mostly cater to the current and future residents of the town.
