Pavlodar (Russian: Павлодар) is a city-state on the shore of Lake Onega. Founded by Russian-speaking players led by Blackcrow1945 in March 2020.
History
Early story
Prior to the arrival of a group of players led by Blackcrow1945, only a huge abandoned fortress was located on the site of modern Pavlodar. Later, the mayor of Pavlodar Blackcrow1945, using one of the maps, established that earlier this fortress was part of Greater Finland. Months earlier it had been the town of Äänislinna.
A group of players arrived in these lands from the south - they used to live in Volzhsk, but disagreements with the mayor forced them to leave the city.
March 2020
Having mastered the castle, the mayor set the task of restoring it as soon as possible. So, by March 28, the main square, rest room, chicken coop, farm and a small fortress tower were repaired. It is worth noting that on March 24, diplomatic relations were established with West Caribbea. On March 28, a large warehouse was built, which replaced the old one, in which nothing could fit. On March 31, construction of the Onega port began.
By this time, relations with the neighbors began to change for the better.
April 2020
On April 1, work began to restore the fortifications. This is due to the aggravation of the situation in the region. The North tower and wall were repaired during the day. Work in the port of Onega did not stop: warehouses and several railway tracks were dug.
On April 3, a meeting of the mayors of Pavlodar and Astora (Terra Mariana) was held. During the conversation, it was decided to divide the spheres of influence on the territory of the lake, cooperate in construction and protect each other. After the conversation, the mayor of Pavlodar conducted a tour of Pavlodar for the city of Astor.
On April 8, the Northern gate was built. After them, the construction of the fortress wall continued. On April 12, the construction of the defensive wall was completed, which allowed the construction of a new urban area to begin. Now the city is divided into two districts: West and East.
All administrative buildings will be located in the Western district: city hall, warehouse, farms, spawn, citadel, poultry farm. In the Eastern district of Pavlodar, there will be a market, Embassy of West Caribbea, residential buildings and a hotel.

Farm
In the South of the city there are several vegetable gardens where potatoes, wheat, and carrots are planted daily. A chicken farm is located in the North.
Geography
Pavlodar is located in the North-West of the European part of Russia on the Eastern shore of the Onega sea. Mostly, in the local forests grow oak, spruce and birch. It is very rare to find a dark oak tree that was planted by one of the players earlier.
Buildings
Pavlodar is a big castle city. Nothing has yet been built outside the walls of the fortress, but it is planned to build residential buildings and a market in the future.
Mayoralty
The mayor's office of Pavlodar is a few rooms, among which the mayor's office and a small meeting room stand out.
All offices are decorated in the same style and warm colors. The floor is made of cut spruce wood, the walls are made of a combination of polished granite and white baked clay.
Initially, this room housed a warehouse and furnaces, but after the construction of the warehouse, it was decided to place the mayor's office here.
Storage
The storage facility was built at the end of March on the site of unknown underground structures and a small mine.
Initially, it was planned to build a one-story, but long warehouse. However, after some thought, the mayor decided to build a warehouse with a ground floor, and also place a station there for the arrival of mine trucks from the port of Onega. All chests in the vault have a name based on the item that is stored in them. All residents have access to the warehouse. Despite the size of the warehouse, there are still several small warehouses throughout the city.
Central tower
The Central tower is the tallest building in the city. On its top there is a large viewing platform that offers a view of the entire city of Pavlodar.
Pavlodar Kremlin
The Pavlodar Kremlin is a fortress defensive structure that surrounds the perimeter of the entire territory of Pavlodar.
Various sections of the Kremlin were built at very different times. The first section was built before the Foundation of Pavlodar, presumably in mid-late 2019. The second section was built at the end of March 2020, and the third section is still being built.
The Kremlin is built of cobblestones and spruce planks. Occasionally you can find other materials. It has several levels: wall (a place for archers inside the wall), over-wall (for infantry and archers), and tower (exclusively for observation and archers). In some places, the Kremlin can be accessed through secret passageways that lead directly to the street. This is done for convenience, in case the city is captured. In the South of the fortress is the Southern gate. They serve as the main entrance to the city, and the path from the gate can lead to Saint Petersburg. The Northern gate is located in the Northern part of the Kremlin. They are twice as big as the southern ones. From the Northern gate there is a way to Arkhangelsk. Also, the Vorotnitsky bridge adjoins the Northern wall.
Transport
Not far from Pavlodar, there is a section of ice track that connects several European routes. Thus, you can get to European capitals from Pavlodar. If you consider the possibility of transfer, it is quite possible to get to America.
At the moment, the mayor's office of Pavlodar is working on creating an ice route that could connect several sections of various roads and make the way from America to Kamchatka.
In the South of Pavlodar, residents are building the Onega port. The fact is that through the future underground routes, it will be possible to get to Pavlodar either from Kazakhstan or from the Balkan Peninsula. In addition, a small water route runs from the port to the White sea and allows you to reach various Northern countries. The port will be able to accept not only players, but also numerous cargoes. It is planned to lay a railway from the port to a special warehouse in the city, which will allow various merchants from all over the world to deliver the necessary goods without visiting the city.
