Chillvana
Chillvana is the capital city of Coldba (Cuba), located in the northwest of the nation. It is currently the most populous city by player population, as 5 of the 7 Coldban player citizens have a residence there. The city is a cultural and architectural center for the nation.
Geography
Chillvana lies in the northwest of Coldba. It is situated on the coast, with the city center lying on top of land at the confluence of the Coldban Ocean and two frozen rivers. The city is comprised of a snowy beach and snowy plains, which can be seen underneath the grand torch grid. The area is primarily flat, with some rolling hills; this has contributed to the orderly development of the city's structure.
Road System
Chillvana operates on a grid-based street layout. The streets are 3 blocks wide, made of spruce bottom slabs, with a trim of stone brick stairs on either side. At each intersection, the center slab is waterlogged to allow for riptide tridents to be used. Each intersection is spaced 32 blocks apart from the next, and the interior space of each block of the city is 29x29 blocks. The north-south roads are avenues, and the east-west ones are streets. From west to east, the avenues (each named for an important feature of the nation; most from Old Cuba) are as follows: Singularity, Castle, Torchgrid, Stormalong, and Everglacier. From north to south, the streets are as follows: Sprutia, Navia, Station, Sesame, Main, Boardwalk, and uhhh idk we don't have a name yet sorry.
Addresses are labeled going from the north- or west-most point of the relevant road. This system was created and implemented by Zhivämky.
There are also several other footpaths not part of the grid. The Freezeway-01, which turns into Stormalong Avenue, connects Chillvana directly to Old Cuba. The Bloomway, which extends from the intersection of Everglacier Avenue and Sesame Street, passes by the Chillvana Gardens, reaching the suburb of Eastbay. There is also a path extending from the intersection of Singularity Avenue and Main Street that leads to the Holy Temple of Chillvana, a cemetery, a nether roof portal, and trail ruins that are an archaeological site of the Chillvana Museum.
Infrastructure
Transit
In addition to the road network, Chillvana is also connected to Cenrail. The Cuban Line runs through here, providing a vital link to the other parts of the nation. To the north, the next stop is Anweigh, and to the south, it's Old Cuba. The Cuban Line has a very high ratio of powered to regular rails, especially between Chillvana and Anweigh.
There are currently plans to expand Chillvana Station. These expansions will include work to the physical station building, along with the addition of 3 more rail lines. The planned Crystal Line will be an international Cenrail line, with stops planned at Byelaya Tepe, Fin's planned drowned farm, and the Port of Eras. The other 2 lines are local. The one that is Cenrail local will be a shuttle to the Arctic Circle Stadium. The other, a local transit system, will comprise the Chillvana Metro. The Metro will have stops around the Chillvana Metropolitan Area, providing quicker routes to key sites.

Kate's house is inside an iceberg, at 1 Sesame Street.
Eastbay, a suburb, is home to Zhiv and Ann. Their houses are the only structures there.
Administrative
City Hall
City Hall has 3 different addresses, for each of the 3 entrances to the main floor. This main floor is the communal storage of the nation, which all Coldbans are free to use. It is sorted by category. The second & third floors of City Hall have offices. On the second floor are the Office of Foreign Affairs and the Office of Building Affairs. On the third floor are the Treasury, the AAA meeting room, and the TBD.
The building is the epitome of Chillvan architecture, with its spruce and deepslate composition. It also features open windows, which allow better access. It is the tallest player-made structure in the city.
Chillvana Station
Another deepslate and spruce building, the open-air Chillvana Station serves as the entry point by rail to the city. It contains maps of the city and nation, as well as free minecarts and sweet berries.
There are currently plans to significantly expand it.
Guardhouse
A small structure with a tower, the guardhouse serves as the nation's prison. It is located on Sesame Street. It is built almost entirely out of deepslate bricks.
Post Office
The Chillvana Post Office, located on Main Street, was built to replace the mail floor of the Capitol in Old Cuba. Both were built by Fin. The Chillvana Post Office uses spruce and deepslate on the exterior, but the interior uses various types of wood to color code the mailboxes. To one side are inboxes for each Coldban citizen, and to the other side are outboxes to other nations, categorized by general geographic location. In the middle is the national inbox.
Utility
