Chervonstad

*Not to be confused with Chevronstad.*

**Chervonstad** (Alfheimi: *Chérvonstad*), formerly known as **Cherva,** is the capital city of Alfheim. Located on the continent of Haven in the southernmost point of the country, Chervonstad is owned by the Parliamentary Advisors of Alfheim. The city was adopted on the 3rd of August 2021 as the capital by PM Delta Bolodrav, although evidence of settlement predates the Empire of Uldarash by at least a millennium. Chervonstad, as a continuously inhabited area for thousands of years, has been built on top of countless generations of different structures, only some of which have survived to present day. Chervonstad was formerly located in a heavily forested area densely populated by wolves. Owing to frequent attacks on livestock, these wolves were hunted to eradication upon order of PM Delta Bolodrav. The area was then deforested to accommodate the growing demands for space.

## History

### Capital city of Alfheim

Chervonstad was founded on a rainy day on the ruins of an old Elven City. The city is established on what was a large spruce forest. During the construction of the Old Parliament (Chervonstad’s first building). Builders were subject to being hunted by wolves and local bandits. Causing the construction effort to slow down. The Founders of Alfheim took to executive decision to hire a band of Mercenaries from the nearby city of Sanctuary. The leader of the Band was Rettery Von Burg who was the duke of the Duchy of Burgmount in the Kingdom of Sanctuary or Hearthstone Union (present). The Knights of Burgmount which was the name of the Mercenary Band that lead crusades across Alfheim’s forest killing Wolves, Bandits and Supernatural creatures. Sadly, an incident occurred where Rettery accused certain Alfheimi politicians of being Vampires and as a result he and the rest of the knights killed them in their sleep. This raised Sanctuary and Alfheim tensions and soon resulted in the construction of wall Reverence around Alfheim.

### Early Infrastructure

During the early days of Alfheim. Chervonstad was reprimanded for its use of “commie boxes”. This box-like housing was constructed during the first month of Alfheim’s founding due the Prime Minister DeltaImpact's aggressive campaign to grow Alfheim’s population and increase it influence in the Second Empire of Uldarash. These “boxes” were known for their small, compact interior and colourful concrete walls. Prime Minister Delta stated “they were only built for temporary use during my term, and they were incredibly cheap to build!”. The box houses were based of the design used in the late Principality of Schwarzfeld. The “squatter” nation in which the founders of Alfheim created as a result of the collapse of Bardonia in the Allium-Coalition War. The houses would soon be replaced with luxury, large apartments following Chervonstad’s intended Victorian theme. This was lead by the efforts of Nate and Vic van Barcht

### Fort Valeria Victrix

During Prime Minister Ashley’s term A.K.A TheAsianAimbot. Ashley created a large fort by the name of Fort Valeria Victrix. The fort quickly became the main Centre Piece of Chervonstad and grew to be the tallest Fort in Rathnir, with trenches around it going all the way down to Bedrock. The Fort was built as a result of the Uldarashi Schism. Where tensions grew between Alfheim and The Kingdom of Aurora as Aurora couped Empress Caterina of Montroig for being “too democratic”. The fort was highly efficient until the sudden rework of the War system where forts such as Valeria Victrix proved useless. Till this day Fort Valeria Victrix remains a world wonder being built on the thousands of souls who have fallen down the deep trenches or the souls of prisoners who were subject to the horror that is the Valeria Salt Mines
