Klondike

Klondike was a town in Redmont and functioned as the country's mining town. The town followed a steampunk theme and drafted its constitution on 16 November 2021. Klondike strove for a just, fair, and tranquil society as was seen in the preamble of the town's constitution.

Klondike's main industries included industrial plots, mines, lodges and resorts, caves, and ice fishing. The town was modeled after the territory of Yukon in Canada, but slowly grew away from its touristy theme and then focused more on steampunk builds.

Klondike comprised four (4) districts: residential, commercial, industrial, and government. The town's commercial center was roughly based on the shops and businesses in Diagon Alley from the Harry Potter series.

Klondike was based on the Canadian region of Yukon, which is home to a city also named Klondike. Redmont's Klondike was named after Canada's Klondike.

History

On 12 September 2021, Tylxr69 (now Tylxrfied) submitted the town application for Klondike. After a little under a month (9 October), then secretary of state xEndeavour accepted the application thus officially marking the creation of the town. Klondike’s opening day took place on 26 November, hosting an ice boat racing competition, a snowball fight, and snowball easter egg hunt. After the festivities ended, Klondike’s rental regions were open to the public via auctions on the town’s discord server. The transition from Hamilton to Reveille marked several large changes in Klondike, notably a major theme change (cabins and ski resort theme to steampunk theme) and the removal of Klondike’s train. During the town’s third electoral term, then mayor SnoWhiteBeard stepped down from their position. Due to this, Tylxrfied stepped down from his role as deputy mayor and ascended to the position of mayor. However, Klondike’s constitution does not state that this is proper protocol, thus sparking a lawsuit titled The_Donuticus vs. Town of Klondike on 16 December 2022.

Klondike was later destroyed.

Geography

Klondike was located at the coordinates 3185 77 576 (Klondike’s town hall) and was surrounded by snowy mountains. Located in a taiga and warm ocean biome, Klondike’s grass grew a darker green.

Industrial

Klondike's industrial plots were mostly empty, however those that were filled were made almost entirely of brick. These large buildings are mostly empty and unowned.

Commercial

Klondike’s commercial plots were pre-built and rentable, elaborately designed with many details. Most builds consisted of spruce, birch, and warped wood along with bricks and sandstone.

Government

Only three government plots existed, hosting Klondike’s hospital, city hall, and police station. All three buildings are located in the city center.

Residential

Due to the transition from Hamilton City to Reveille, Klondike did not have any residential plots. However, houses could be seen on top of mountains though they are unfinished and were not for rent/sale.

Economy

Klondike was the first city to introduce a public mine, in this case an amethyst mine (though it was not open to the public). Klondike also rented out drills to those with the need at a base price of $500 for one day. In addition to mining, Klondike also rented out 30 pre-built commercial buildings for $50 per 14 days. Klondike also had rentable stands and a rentable gas station.

Time Rented	Cost

Culture

Klondike has several unique attractions. Klondike is the only town/city to have a gondola system as well as a heat converting tube near the top part of the gondola located at 3218 181 710. Klondike also boasts unique and complex copper and amethyst statues around the town, the most grand and largest being located in the town’s center. Klondike is mostly pre-built with a handful of exceptions but Klondike residents are very keen on keeping the steampunk theme throughout the town.

Government

Klondike used a council system; the first two councils had specific roles, such as Director of Industry or Director of Housing; however, starting at the town’s third council, these roles were dismissed and only the roles of mayor, deputy mayor, and councilor remain. As was seen in the town’s constitution, Klondike’s government was also separated into two branches: legislative and executive. The executive branch consisted of the mayor and deputy mayor while the legislative branch consisted of the town’s councilors. Klondike’s mayor has the power to veto any bill that may come to pass within the town as well as fire and hire whoever they please for the council. In case of a mayor’s absence, the deputy mayor will gain the same powers as the mayor until they are back. While the roles of mayor and deputy mayor (or the executive branch in general) do not have a term limit, councilors have 60 day terms. When a mayoral election occurs, the player with the most votes would gain the position (this system also applied to the deputy mayor). Councilors would be elected in the same way, with the difference that the top five candidates with the most votes would get the job.
