Weitenbosch
Weitenbosch is a Yev village north of Joodfontein, built in the same style.
History
Founding
After the arrival of P_P_A and June, the Yev population of Joodfontein tripled in size, and the small village filled up. The need for expansion became apparent, but June and P_P_A were reluctant to expand Joodfontein, for they treasured its quiet rural flair. P_P_A thus decided to found another village nearby, where to resettle some of Joodfontein's Yevs.
The construction of Weitenbosch started on the 8th of March. The location chosen was a hillside north of Joodfontein, laid against a forest and overlooking the Vennbaai. Work on the Guardian grinder near Sigfell Island slowed down Weitenbosch's development, but on the 13th of March 2015 it was complete, and the town was given its name.
Ancient zombie burial grounds lay beneath the village, disturbed by June harvesting organs from the dead to sell rotten meat in Joodfontein. June, versed in necromancy, summoned two zombie Yevs and brought them back from the dead; they became the village's first inhabitants.
Growth and Slavery
Two days later, P_P_A constructed the server's first functioning slave plantation in the town. One of the Yevs—who'd recently become a parent—was designated for work in the fields, and toiled day and night to feed his master. The experiment was deemed a success, and slavery was instituted in Scheldland.
The following night, during a visit by Sidmarcus01, another zombie Yev attacked the settlement. June resurrected him, and thus a fourth member joined the burgeoning community. He was not fully cured however; he still craves human flesh, though he now peacefully buys it from traders.
Renovation
Some time in 2017, the prominent house on the hill was replaced by a simple wooden church.
Geography
Weitenbosch is set on the side of a forested hill and overlooks the Vennbaai and its lush fields of wheat.
Economy
Agriculture and forestry lie at the heart of Weitenbosch's economy. The village's main produce is wheat, grown in copious at the bottom of the hill, and lumber from the nearby forest. It also hosts an underground food processing plant, and exports rotten meat to Joodfontein.
The village also hosts the server's first fully automatic grain farm running on slave labour. There are plans to expand this model to outlying fields.
Demographics
Four Yevs, one of them a slave.
