Vantaa is a town located on the shore of the lake Päijänne around the southern parts of Greater Finland. It is one of the largest towns of the nation by population. The town is located more north than its real-life counterpart with the same name, due to the difficult terrain of the southernmost parts of the country.
History
The early days
The founder and the current mayor of the town, MaxFI, joined the server and sailed from the coast of Africa to Finland on March 15th, 2019. However, he didn't settle in Finland until a month later on April 20th, when he built his first house on the current site of the lake Päijänne in the town. The lake was created by hand on April 22nd, causing the house to be sunken in the lake. On the next day, April 23rd, MaxFI dried the part of the lake where his house was by using cobblestone. But by the very next day, April 24th, that part of the lake had been filled with water again and his house had been demolished. This forced him to build a new house on the shore of the lake.
The foundation of the town and the nation
By April 25th, MaxFI had collected 64 gold, which was the price for creating a town. The town was founded on the same day. The very next day, on April 26th, the nation of Greater Finland was founded. Vantaa joined the nation on the same day and was the fourth town to join, thereby being one of the founding towns of the nation.
Fast growth
After the founding of the town, the first things to be built apart from the house were a flag of Finland, the farm and the Town Hall. The first new resident to move to the town was _JNX on April 28th. The next day, April 29th, 3 new residents moved in. At the height of the growth on April 1st, (the date of vappu, a national holiday in Finland) 7 new residents moved in on the same day. The growth was so fast that the town didn't have enough gold to provide plots for all the newcomers. On April 30th, Vantaa was connected with a branch to the national iceroad/metro network of Greater Finland, with a station in the town.
