==History==
Berdyans'k was founded on July 13th, 2021 along the Sea of Azov in the southern Ukraine. All wood was imported from nearby Siberia and Balkans as there were no trees in the local area. The town is one of the largest in the world, bosting many homes for its residents and farms for feed and trading. 
In August of 2021 a major population boom forced the formation of the Department of Public Works and Planning to zone new areas for city development. The Zoning Ordinance of 2021 was passed by the Mayor allowing the creation of four main zones for residences, capitol buildings, historical buildings and agriculture. This plan led to orderly development of Berdyans'k which can still be seen on a map today.
With the instatement of Berdyans'k as the capitol of the United Socialist Republic, a capitol building was constructed within the Capitol District to house the National Council for general elections. This influx of national assistance funded the expansion of public housing and paving the streets of Berdyans'k. 
On October 12, 2021, the Port of Berdyans'k was opened for commerce. Details can be seen below in the Docks section. 
On January 22, 2022, a major expansion to the cities grid was added to accommodate more citizens. Industry and commerce have also taken hold and several new endeavors have been undertaken for factories and shops to be developed in the town.
