Tabantha Peaks

== Overview ==
Tabantha Peaks was the capital of the Province of Nova Contea. It was the most populated city in the RoP until it was abandoned when when the AFAB Riots concluded.
Page last Updated: February 23, 2021
== Name Origin ==
The name "Tabantha Peaks" is based off of the Tabantha Frontier region in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. "Tabantha" was chosen as it is near the freezing Gerudo Highlands region, which is fitting since the city is atop a mountain. The banner of the city itself is based off of the crest the Rito race (Ritos live near the cold Hebra Mountain which also fits the city's cold climate). This name follows the naming scheme used in Contea which heavily references the Zelda franchise.
== Geography ==
Tabantha Peaks is mainly located on the Tabantha Mountain Range. Its 
City Centre and most tourist attractions are located on the mountain. Across the northern river, however, is the Tabantha Peaks Agriculture District which has a manual tree farm and a large wheat field. The South Bank divides Tabantha Peaks with the Saria Woods forest, where a popular tourist attraction "The Big Treehouse" is located. The frontier of Tabantha Peaks is in a Nether Soul Sand Valley Biome, where a large military installation was under construction called "Fort Tabantha". The RoP Government abandoned the project in February 2021.
== Local Economy ==
The Tabantha Peaks economy was very laissez-faire with social benefits being distributed to poorer citizens by the Contean government to get them on the path to great welth fast. This section will explain and show the main exports and successful industries that funded the ever-growing city of Tabantha Peaks, cut short by conflict.
=== Rare Goods & Treasure ===
The Tabantha Peaks economy is dominated by the export of rare valuable goods such as Elytras or enchanted books to other areas in the RoP, especially VoS. A local company called Evals Trade Charter Limited, which was run by the Province of Nova Contea's Government, was in charge of this local industry.
=== Mining and Excavation ===
Mining was a large local industry however its use is mainly for personal wealth/protection and currency introduction instead of an actual dedicated export.
=== Agriculture ===
Agriculture, especially wheat and sweet berries, were the main food source of Tabantha Peaks and were the most popular food products sold in the RoP. 
=== Dyes & Banners ===
Tabantha Peaks held the biggest exporting share of dyes (especially black, white, gray, purple, blue, red, and yellow) in the RoP and mass produced them to create banners.
=== Lumber ===
Lumber was a large emerging industry following the construction of the automatic TNT-powered Tree Farm by Tsar. The tree farm was nationalized under the Contean Government's license program, but was made unusable by locals as a sign of defiance towards the Federal RoP Government in December 2020. The farm was self-sufficent for the most part, as it was hooked up to 5 automatic bone meal farms which produce a few stacks of bone meal in an hour. The tree and bone meal farms, just like all facilities in the noe-abandoned city, are in a state of disrepair and are unusable.
== Local Politics ==
=== Municipal Representation ===
The Mayor of Tabantha Peaks had authority over the city according to the Provinces and Municipalities Bill. Here is the list of Mayors (most-least recent):
Name 	Time In Office
Vacant 	January 18, 2021 - City's Abandoning (Present)
Didneywurl4lif	November 22, 2020 - January 18, 2021
Tsar__Putin 	September 22, 2020 - November 22, 2020
=== Provincial Representation ===
Tabantha Peaks was part of the Nova Contea Province of the RoP. The Contean Government was a direct democracy and therefore there was no provincial representation via political representation. Rather, every citizen had a major role in influencing the development of both their own hometown and the entire province as a whole equally. The citizens themselves acted as the "politicians". The Tsar of Nova Contea, Tsar, had no extra powers and was treated like a citizen by-law, however his word is considered of "higher value" on a cultural level due to the unique Contean Culture's fondness of Monarchism.
=== Federal Representation ===
On a Federal Level, the citizens of Tabantha Peaks have always been either backing their local official Independent Candidate or any centrist parties in Federal Politics; most notably the Contean Block, New Polynesian Alliance, or Liberal Front. The following table covers the MPs who directly and officially declared their representation of Nova Contea as a whole, not just Tabantha Peaks (least-most recent):
Member of Parliament	Political Party 	Time in Office over Nova Contea
Tsar__Putin 	Independent Candidate for Nova Contea	September - October 3 2020
Tsar__Putin 	Contean Block 	Oct. 3 - Dec. 4 2020
Tsar__Putin 	People's Party 	Dec. 4 2020 - Dec. 16 2020
Jeffrey 	Guacamole Party 	Dec. 16 2020 - January 3, 2021
Bee 	New Polynesian Alliance 	January 3, 2021 - January 9, 2021
Jeffrey 	Liberal Front 	January 9, 2021 - February 3, 2021
Due to the abandoning of the Contea region and February 3rd 2021 election resulting in a new Government term, there has been no new parliamentary representatives for Tabantha Peaks or Nova Contea.
== Tourist Attractions, Landmarks, & Important Structures ==
Tabantha Peaks had a variety of tourist attractions and landmarks accessible to the public. 
=== Tourist Attractions (Alphabetical Order) ===
Boogsie's Base
Boogsie's Base was a hybrid of a sky base mixed in with a base inside a mountainside. The sky base has a 2x2 diving pool off of it and the cliff face part looks like a cool vault. It remains in a better condition compared to other attractions in the ruins of Tabantha Peaks.
The Eco Dome
Didneywurl4lif's first project upon co-founding Tabantha Peaks with Tsar was to make a massive "Eco Dome", which was home to his pet Parrots. It has many exotic plants in it such as Sunflowers and Bamboo, which would otherwise die out in the outdoor freezing climate of Tabantha Peaks. It remains in a better condition compared to other sections of the building it is connected to, which are many times devastated by griefing and abandonment.
The End Ship
A day before Rex1014747 left the server temporarily to play Genshin Impact, he spent a long time building a 1:1 replica of an End Ship floating over one of the northern cliff faces of the Tabantha Mountain Range. Some tourists think he hacked or used worldedit but in reality he deconstructed an entire end city for materials and built the ship for fun.
Fort Tabantha
Fort Tabantha is an abandoned construction site for a fortress in the Nether that was planned to act as a defensive installation from enemies trying to attack Nova Contea from the Nether. Its unfinished structure is built out of End Stone, Blackstone, and Basalt. The fortress was planned to have multiple layers of defense and keeps to ensure the safety of Contean Civilians. Only one keep and a Citadel was built out of the entire project; completing just 18% of the plans.
Tabantha Landing Platform
Tabantha Landing Platform was built by Didneywurl4lif and is an Elytra landing platform built off of a western cliff face of the Tabantha Mountain Range. It is was used air travelers coming from Ashton and the Tabantha WHEAT FIELD.
Rex's House: Interior
Rex1014747 was renowned in Contea as the best "speedrun" builder, as his building expertise is in unconventional, speedrunner, and minimalist redstone builds. His house is a perfect manifestation of all of these aspects as the compact nature of it is unconventional and comedic, and the small size that focuses purely on essential things in a home (a bed and a chest) lives up to the speedrunner theme. Its sneaky location left it mostly unscathed in the looting of Tabantha Peaks after the AFAB Riots ended. 
Rex's House: The Ladder 
Above Rex1014747's house, which is a tourist attraction in itself, is a funky-looking and fully functional ladder out of trapdoors. This ladder is notable as its ladder blocks have 1-block gaps in between them which SHOULDN'T work but the trapdoors used in the base support of the ladder allows them to still work through a peculiar glitch.
The Tower
The Tower, which bears no name, was built on top of a mountain 
peak on the fringes of Tabantha Peaks. It was a majestic tower that looks almost like it came from a wizard fantasy film. It was hit the second-hardest by pro-RoP Government griefers after the AFAB Riots ended. 
The Tree House (not in the city but close enough)
The Tree House was built by kingdane99 and took a little under a week to build. It was a cool massive home in the Dark Oak forest called Saria Woods (Saria is yet another Zelda reference since she lived in a forest). The surrounding area of the tree house was distinct as the top 1-2 blocks of most of the trees in a 40-block radius were removed; seemingly for plans of possible expansion of the Tree House. Unfortunately, the tree house and surrounding forest was razed to the ground by pro-RoP Government griefers after the AFAB Riots concluded.
=== Landmarks (Alphabetical Order) ===
The Mines
The mines were heavily used by all Conteans, even outside of Tabantha Peaks. The convenient minecart system and lit-up abandoned mineshaft in the ravine allowed for easy transport of goods between any miner's Point A and Point B. The strip mines originating from here can go up to 2000 blocks in any direction and are the heart of the Tabantha Peaks mining industry. Additionally, The Mines are home to 3 Slime Chunks located beside each other. One of them has been excavated down to Bedrock. They now sit abandoned and it is unwise to enter them in order to avoid a possible cave-in....
The Nether Portal
The Nether Portal to Tabantha Peaks is massive on the Overworld side and has a nice view by a southern cliff face by the portal itself. Didneywurl4lif decided to build it as if it were a giant ruined portal and to great success! The Nether Portal leads directly into Fort Tabantha.
THE Wheat Field
THE Wheat Field was a project by Didneywurl4lif to terraform a section of the 
western section of the nearest plains biome and turn it into a nice-looking farming area with a wheat field. The wheat was
used to make bread as Conteans and its unique taste became a popular hit in the Polynesian food industry.
=== Important Structures (Alphabetical Order) ===
Contean Institute of Research and Enchanting
The Contean Institute of Research and Enchanting was built by Didneywurl4lif and is the main intellectual hub of the entire RoP during Tabantha Peak's height; serving as the main 
Enchanting hub in the Contean region as well. Its library collected rare books and the enchanting quarters of the institute have been used by all Contean citizens. The majestic building was the symbol of Contean Innovation and Intellectualism. The institute was looted and burned down by a vengeful Britannia after his base was robbed in the AFAB Riots, destroying many rare books and art pieces for good. 
Tabantha Smithy
The Tabantha Smithy was the headquarters for all heavy industry and armor creation in Tabantha Peaks and was built by Didneywurl4lif. It is right beside the Tabantha Landing Platform for easy access to travelers. The smithy runs on an automatic Bamboo farm as fuel, making it completely self-sufficient. The smelting section is complimented for its convenience thanks to Didney's Redstone engineering. It was bombed by pro-RoP Government forces during the AFAB Riots.
