The Story of Den Minerwal

10.000 years ago, the first men settled near a river. 
They lived of the animals in the forest, and of the fish in the river. 
The people lived on the west-bank of the river, and it was very difficult to cross. After 1000 years, the first people crossed the river, but they never came back. 

2000 years ago, the romans came.
They built walls on the west bank, because they were the enemys of the people on the east bank. They found precious metals in the water of the river, so they called the river "Mineralis".
The metals were shipped to the port or laborated in the town. There was a big market in the town, were cereals and metals were traded.

On the east-bank, the kings of Servatius built walls to. The romans didn't like this and they declared war to the town on the east bank. They called the town Brutopolis, named after Brutus who killed Ceasar.

The romans called their own town ; Mineralopolis.
Because of the trade, it was a rich town.

1200 years ago, the dukes of Andantus took over Mineralopolis. Since then, the town was called Den Minerwal. They built defense walls, a church and a watch tower. They were still in war with Brutostadt, and after every attack, they stole everything in this town, so they became rich,.

Brutostadt was very poor, the only "farm" was in the centre of the town. A lot of people died because of a lack of food and diseases. They didn't have any money to bury the dead people outside the town.

So,

here is:

Update 1 - War and expansion

Hey everyone, thank you very much for your replies!

Now I'm going to talk about a war, around 1450, between Den Minerwal and Brutostadt.

Some people from Brutostadt were digging up gold and other metals from the river, but the people from Minerwal, especcialy the Duke, sir Jan Pieterszoon Coenen, didn't like this, so they decided to attack Brutopolis.

They threw, with the help of catapults, some fire bombs. And this is the result:

The biggest part of Brutostadt was burned down, but the church and the the monument were spared. All the money was taken away and many people died.

But with financial help of Servatius, they rebuilt most of the city.

They also built a city hall and defense walls. Now they're safe! At last! The cemetary has grown a lot, but the people of Brutopolis weren't allowed to built outside the walls.

And what was Den Minerwal doing? They built a city hall, a monument for sir Jan Pieterszoon Coenen, extra defense walls,and a church, that also serves as a watch tower, to keep an eye on Brutostadt. And all that, built with help of the money of Brutstadt.

Sorry for my bad english!

I hope you all like it

greeetzzzz,,
