Kongsvinger
Kongsvinger is a small, but an elegant town, located in Western Sweden. This town mainly specialises in transportation and infrastructure. There are plenty of things that make it unique. It was the first town to have a proper train station before the integration of the two ice road systems in the Kalmar Union and Terra Mariana. It is also the only town to have a church. It was founded by _CrA6914, with help from King NordicFenris, on the 14 July 2019.
History
On the 14th of July 2019, NordicFenris, the King of what was then Sverige approached the soon-to-be mayor of this town. He had come in peace and explained to him that he will help him fund a new town. The mayor quickly accepted and Kongsvinger was integrated into Sverige. The oddly laid street pattern was due to the fact that the town was built before it had been claimed, therefore escaping the common grid pattern altogether. As the town expanded in size, so did the population with the first resident - hennesseyyyy - living in the newly built residential district on the 6th of August, Just outside the city walls. Kongsvinger would go on to have 10 people living in the residential district and becoming a decently sized city.

The CTM headquarters
The CTM HQ is the tallest building in the town and the first skyscraper ever built in the new financial district. It was constructed in late August 2019 in collaboration with nicosecci. Furthermore, a new train station was built underneath the tower, giving it another function other than to serve as the Headquarters of the company. The structure mainly consists of black stained glass and a unique squared concrete pattern.
