Nostra:NZ (Town)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
NZ City is one of the capital cities of New Zealand meganation, alongside Napier. It is also the 2nd largest town in New Zealand by population and by chunk size. The mayorship of the town actively switches between Subensky, Dools2 and Bemoism. The nearby town of Embassy acts as a adjacent town of NZ City.
NZ City is a culturally unique city due to majority of its residents being from Antarctic Union who settled in New Zealand due to Antarctica's removal during the reset.
History
Pre-Nostra
When the world map of Terra Nostra announced Antarctica was removed from it, due tho this the players of Antarctic Union decided to move to New Zealand and started talks with other players with New Zealand plans.
Early Access
During Early Access, only premium users were allowed in. In this era Subensky, Dools2 and Bemoism grinded for gold and founded both the town and the nation of NZ.
Full release
After the opening of the server to all players rest of the AU players that decided to move to NZ City joined the town, quickly boosting the town.
Buildings
The main architectural style of the city is brutalism and the city includes a Megashop, a Commie block, a Ice road station (with a second one in planning), and numerous factories/farm both above ground and underground.
Neighbourhoods and administrative divisions
The city separates itself into three distinct sections: North, South and Underground, each respectively managed by Subensky, Dools2 and Bemoism. While the south is currently the most developed and host to the city's megashop, the north hosts ambitious infrastructure and build projects.
North
The Subensky District occupies a large part of the northern area.
Northeast: Ostsubengrad
A gray, brutalist and heavily vertical space whose planned builds reach from bedrock to the build limit. NZ City North Station is located in this section.
Northwest: Willage
Sometimes called Westsubengrad or Wiladż, a quainter, less artificial counterpart to its eastern neighbour, whose ground level remains as a plains biome and whose irregular streets contrast with the sharp lines of other neighbourhoods. In this district, Antarktika House is planned: a building serving as the headquarters of EarthMC's orphaned Antarctic community from Aurora (namely AU) and Nova (namely EPRA).
The name Willage is a wombo (word+combo) of the words West+Village.
South
The Southern section is mainly managed by Dools2 and is larger compared to the Northern section. While still being a mainly brutalist area, it does includes small but non-brutalist areas. Most resident houses, the commie block and the megashop is located in this section. A ice road station has been planned but is yet to be built.
Underground
The underground is managed by Bemoism and is the industrial heartland of NZ City. The place includes numerous farms such as a creeper farm, a wood farm and more.
Antarctic Lunar Base (ALB)
On 30th of August, 2026 Moon was added to Terra Nostra and the Antarctic Lunar Base was established as the first Lunar outpost of New Zealand.
Transportation
NZ City has one iceway station and a second one in planning. The current station connects to Ministry of Infrastructure's Highway 1, WB and NZML lines.
