Elkanfeldt is a former part of te Republic of New Awm but was recently annexed into the Huitca Federation following a threat of war from Huitca to New-Awm.
== History ==
=== Under New-Awm ===
Elkanfeldt was built under the rule of New-Awm, its area fell under a treaty between Huitca and New-Awm to build the New-Awm fortress of Elkanthras, or so Fidelus was told. it started out as a small group of houses with around 7 people inhabiting it, it had it's own simulated micro economy under leadership of economist Zayne.
While Elkanfeldt consisted of a fairly tight knit and active group, all things must come to an end. The player activity started to decrease every day and this was made even more apparent when the Eldham expansion hit. Rathnir servers were down for long amounts of time and lag was common, leading to many players losing motivation or at least take breaks. However by far the most players left for Eldham and a fresh start there. many never returning. Fidelus himself decided to take a two week break in the hopes servers would be fixed by then and that he would have some more motivation to continue.
Fidelus started renovations upon his return, in the hopes that the player activity could be revived. Although unknown to him at the time, 8th Chihuacoatl of the Huitca Federation LilyPrism had found the village not long before his return. He was found by a Huitican emmisary, bringing the message to speak to Lily. This ended in the first threat of war with New-Awm and eventually, New-Awm handed over Elkanfeldt and Elkanthras to the Huitca Federation.
=== Under the Huitca Federation ===
Fidelus was fine with this transition, only needing to take Huitican citizenship.
Huitca gave opportunities in the form of new players and economy as never seen before in the town. Overall Elkanfeldt is happy in Huitca and has only benefited from this annexation.
