Jauna Jurmala

Jaunā Jūrmala, officially Jauna Jurmala, is a town in South Vandistan, to the north of the city of Sanya. Founded in 2023, the town was established by an executive order of Interim Prime Minister Owen, in which Juneausfontein and Soufshire Hathaway were commissioned to construct housing and infrastructure. 
The town (lit. New Jūrmala) was named after Jūrmala, Latvia, a coastal city adjacent to Riga which saw prominence in the USSR. Nearly the entirety of the civilians living in Jauna Jurmala are Latvians, and the municipal motto, Joprojām runājam dzimtajā valodā, translates directly to "We still speak our mother tongue". Though some of the residents had moved from other areas of Vandistan, the majority of the town's people were workers recruited by Juneausfontein from Latvia and Lithuania, or others from around Riga who came for working opportunities.
As of early October 2023, the majority of the town remains under construction.
