Sidon, formerly known as Pyxis, is a small town on Civcraft 2.0. It was founded on September 14th, 2015, and is led by Cannonwalker. Before officially "establishing" it as a town, Cannonwalker had simply built a home and lived there alone; this changed with the arrival of Captain_Naughty.
Unlike the town's predecessor, Corvus, one of the intended purposes of Sidon is to avoid political conflict. Due to this, it has been described by some as a "commune," and operates similarly to one (although private property exists to some degree).
History
Sidon unofficially began on May 6th, 2015 as a small private residence belonging to Cannonwalker. He had recently moved away from Corvus and decided to live on his own in the wilderness. He slowly began building things around his residence, starting with a farm and an inn, then animal farms, and, in August, a tree farm and stone quarry. However, life alone in the wilderness made things somewhat boring.
Cannonwalker decided, on September 14th, to invite Captain_Naughty to come live with him. Naughty arrived the same day, building a chicken egg farm and his own home. Ned_Edgewalker arrived the day after and built his own home, and Beastdudez arrived the day after Ned and did the same. On September 19th, the town had already created a Charcoal Burner and a Stone Smelter. That same day, the group of four agreed to change the name from "Pyxis" to "Sidon." A rabbit pen was completed a few days after the fact.
At the beginning of October, the roads and farms were completely overhauled. Additionally, Captain_Naughty built a lighthouse named "The Sidon Light" in the town. drlithium_ arrived as well and began building a house, while Cannonwalker and the others began naming the roads.
