History
The Founding
Tabarca was founded on the 10th of August, 2022, and marked the start of Genoa's expansion into North Africa.
Location
Neighbours
To the east of the town lies Carthage, the former capital of the nation of Carthage, which predates Tabarca's founding. Thanks to the town being founded closely to the border, the town spawn and initial town buildings surrounding the town square lie close to or on the border.
To the west of the town lies the Papal town of Constantine, which controls Western portions of the old town Annaba.
The town itself sits on a moulded plain before rising into the desert that dominates much of North Africa. Along the coast, the town sits above sea level with deepslate sea walls protecting the coastline.
Points of Interest
Town Square
The town square hosts a fountain in the center, and is surrounded by buildings on all sides, with two archways allowing entry and exit. The buildings on the vertical rows host homes, some vacant and some occupied, as well as an enchantment room. All these buildings can be accessed from the town square or from its exterior. There are four larger buildings along the town square, all of which are accessible via doors in the archways.
Towards the coast, or "front", are the headquarters of two branches of the Genoese Trading Company, the Alchemy and Sand bureaus. In the tower above the pathway sits joint staffing quarters, with beds and some limited storage space.
The "back" of the town square hosts the town hall and the residence of the town's mayor. The town hall hosts a marked map of the town, as well as the tunnel to Annaba and a stage with seating for speeches to be made. The Mayor's residence is entirely private.
The Waterfront
Directly along the waterfront sits the town's shops, a small boats dock for easy access to the water and emergency access ladders in case someone falls off the unprotected coastline and into the water. These are dotted with relatively even spacing along the entire town's coastline.
The Town's shops sell a variety of items, with some government run shops providing basic goods to the town's population. These include the Tabarcan Restaurant, which sells Baked Potatoes and Bread, both from the town's farms, and cooked rabbit, which is obtained from local wildlife. The General Store sells relatively small quantities of starting resources, including several wood types and materials often sought out by new players. Empty shops can also be rented, or purchased, by Tabarcan residents and contain a range of space to sell goods, as well as storage on the second floor.
Behind the town's shops lies the waterfront housing, which while it does not have immediate access to the coastline, is backed onto the stores (with covered alleys separating the two). They provide homes to residence wishing to live in prebuilt homes.
The waterfront also hosts the town's aquarium, which is mostly underground but contains a squid, a pair of tropical fish, an axolotl, and a dolphin in the large, central tank.
The Farm
The town's farm lies behind the town centre and has both public and private farms, as well as a windmill. The farms then give way to the North African deserts.
The public farms are mostly potato farms, with two long chunk wide potato farms running the length of the farms, but towards the front of the farms also sits two smaller seats of wheat and carrot farms that are free for the town's residents to use. Behind the the public farms sits Tabarca's private farms, which are the property of the town's government, and are mostly dominated by wheat, but also grow carrots, sugarcane and cocoa beans towards the back. The windmill itself hosts storage for the private farm's produce, as well as an auto composter to turn waste products into bonemeal that can then be used elsewhere.
Tabarca Castle
Tabarca Castle is the main military fortification in the town, and was designed by Consulente Erwinnn Doria during their tenure as doge.
Galite
The island of Galite has been entirely subsumed by Fort Galite, a Coastal Fortification that juts out into the Mediterranean. It is accessed via a bridge which meets the Tabarcan coast, and along the bridge sits a small boat.
The Border Regions
The town has two primary border regions, with each of its neighbours.
The border region with Carthage sees the ground gradually raise to match that of the hilly carthage, however due to incomplete terraforming this is not smooth or complete along the entire border. The flat section of the border region also hosts a large number of birch trees, which provide the town with its supply of birch wood.
The border region with Carthage sees the town slope down to meet the sea level elevation of Annaba, and also sees a full path and staircase down. Some sections do, however, see sheer border walls akin to the town's sea walls in places, namely towards Tabarca castle and the untouched wilderness that marks part of the border.
