Dulgarda (Dulgchyati: Ярда Дулг [jɑzðə ðʏɤ̯ɣ]), officially Seolland /sɛwl.lɑnt/ (formerly Deulchardda and earlier, Ŋossiya) is a Southern ŋation split between the Land of Chaos and Cornertopia currently owned by Lori. It is not yet a UŊ member state.

Provinces

Even though Dulgarda is a Grand Duchy and unitary, it's divided into multiple provinces just for the fun of it and also it makes it easier to specify where stuff is.

North Dulgarda

North Dulgarda is the northernmost peninsula that Dulgarda lies on, there's currently one unnamed settlement on the southern coast.

Ansilant

Ansilant is an internal island province and is the third largest internal island. There might be plans to open a Cenrail line on Ansilant due to the proximity of existing lines to the island, otherwise the station may open in North Dulgarda.

South Dulgarda

South Dulgarda is a large stretch of land that touches the world border, there are three settlements, one of which is being actively constructed. There are plans to open a theater in South Dulgarda as a part of the in-construction city.

South Dulgarda Associated Nether Structures

The South Dulgarda Associated Nether Structures (SDANSs) is a group of two structures in the nether owned by Dulgarda, the Labyrinth of Dulgarda and the South Dulgarda Nether Portal (SDNP)

The Labyrinth of Dulgarda is a large strip(?) mine located at around y=16 in the nether somewhere below the SDNP. The Labyrinth is used for mining ancient debris and blackstone, and rarely quartz or gold. The name of the mine comes from the labyrinthine nature of the strip mine as opposed to it having a consistent grid-like network. There is currently one layer of the Labyrinth and it is possible that sometime the labyrinth will have a bed mining sector.

Sandland

Sandland is a one-chunk province located within South Dulgarda.

Unorganised Internal Islands

The Unorganised Internal Islands (UIIs) are a group of roughly 14 islands, several of which hold the Trans-Dulgardan rail line from North Dulgarda to South Dulgarda. All of the UIIs are unnamed, hence why they fit into this category. Ansilant is not a UII.

Unorganised External Islands

The Unorganised External Islands (UEIs) are a group of islands that lie further from the main parts of Dulgarda and have been largely untouched. All UEIs are unnamed, hence why they fit into this category.

History

While I don't remember much of the history, I'm gonna try writing what I do remember. -Lori

Founding

On May 19th, 2024, Lori first appeared somewhere in a desert. (Where? Don't ask me.) After a maybe 6000 block journey, she arrived in what is now Dulgarda. There, the original capitol was built and where is still stands, a simple wooden house with no floor or roof. She eventually decided this was a really lackluster area to set up before moving northward and establishing the new capital in North Dulgarda.

The Great Expansion

Sometime later in the year, maybe June or something some ridiculous land claims were made. Some estimated that that expansion would exceed the size of Murbetia, but since then most of those claims have been forfeit, leaving the current borders.

Later On

After about a month or so, Lori vanished from the face of Nguhcraft for a while, returning in July 2024. Before the disappearance, bridges (some of which break interngational law but who cares) were built and the start of a trans-Dulgardan rail line.

In the modern day, Dulgarda's capital is an under-construction city located in South Dulgarda. The Visitor Center and North to South Rail Station have been built, with a massive theater planned. (This may or may not have been a stupid idea.)
