Nyala is a town of Nubia located on the real life border of Sudan and South Sudan. The town was founded by ArcaPlays on July 27th, 2020. Although larger than most towns in size by plots, it has a small population.

Before Nyala

Prior to founding Nyala, ArcaPlays was a resident of Mersa until he recieved 64 gold from a gold crate just 4 days earlier. Nyala was originally going to be a proxy town of Turkana, as ArcaPlays had established a decent relationship with their Mayor at the time. However, after some discussion, ArcaPlays changed his mind and made his own independent town.

History

The First Chunks

The area that Nyala stands in today was filled with sand, grass, red sand, and podzol. Among the conglomerate of blocks, ArcaPlays saw a 1 block deep pit that gave him an idea. He moved the pit in order to fit in in 2 chunks, and then deepened it to create Lake Nyala. The two chunks that Lake Nyala spanned became the first chunks of Nyala.

The First Resident

Around two to three weeks after the founding of Nyala, twomoo1119 approached ArcaPlays asking if he had any open residential plots. Soon after, a former El Obeid resident, mucksock, joined the town. This was as part of the Nubian policy, at the time, of mass recruitment where possible, that was first put into place after reunification with Ethiopia.

Completion

After exactly one month, the plans of Nyala (built in creative on Jul 27) was complete, covering an area of 49 chunks. During the next few weeks, houses would be built by ArcaPlays for future residents.

Drama and De Facto Status

Due to the severe drama occurring on the Nubia discord servers over the past weeks, the town of Nyala became nationless temporarily around 1:50 PM EDT on September 10, 2020 and kicked the other two residents. About 6 hours later, Nyala joined Sudan, the nation lead by Dharug for a short period. Eventually, ArcaPlays realized that the 40 chunk nation bonus of Sudan could not allow him to expand, so he rejoined Nubia in a de facto status. ArcaPlays did not recognize his town as being a Nubian town, although it was displayed as one on the Dynmap. Then on September 11, 2020, ArcaPlays rejoined Sudan for a little while before fully rejoining Nubia again.
