The sunflowers look really nice with that older, "tuscan" feel to your town. Nice work!

Awesome!

perfectly amazing!

I never thought such a small village could turn so interesting! Nice job!

Wow, so many replies already! :!!:

k50 dude: That's exactly what I was going for when I made this village, I went to Tuscany a couple of years ago and it was so beautiful, I tried to recreate it here.

Julien: Thank you!

Sky Guy: Thanks for commenting, I'm glad you liked it.

Spy9600: Thank you, I think it really sums up Cattala with the combination of traditional Mediterranean charm and British imperial styling as well.

Welcome to the village of Seina, in the central region of Cattala. Seina is currently a small community, and in these updates we’ll study the growth of the area.



This is the village overview, from a small plane on loan from Aldoak Airport. Currently there are 64 residents in the town, with some working in the local farms and shops, and others commuting into Calora and Jennai via the M4.



The only commercial properties in Seina are the village stores, which sell local produce from the farms, such as olives and milk, and general goods that are bought in from the rest of Cattala. Residents need to travel to Calora to find their nearest supermarket and larger shops.



The Brumella farm has been in the Brumella family for hundreds of years, and is one of the oldest buildings in the village. Recently a new member of the family took over control of the farm. He lives in Jennai, and is an industrial magnate at one of the shipyards.



Out in the country, away from the main village, is a large mansion that was also once owned by the Brumella family. Now the house is owned by the former chief executive of Sky Cattala, the country’s largest media organisation.

This is the new version of Seina, as I've mentioned before elsewhere I've decided to rebuild it. I'm much happier with the new one. This is also the first update I've done using my new laptop and Office 2010, which has improved image editing capabilities. I hope you enjoyed it.

It's very pretty!

Wow! I especially love the mansion!

THANK YOU DANIELL! :wack:

Thanks Sky Guy and 976. (I am allowed to have an emoticon fight in my own city notebook )

I'm hoping to get another update over the next week - I've got a maths exam and two science exams this week, so I might be a bit less active.

Welcome back to Seina. As you can see, the village has expanded slightly since you last visited – there are now new homes, new farms and a small shopping area.



A new road of homes has been built just south of the village stores, Norman Street. The village is growing quickly, as road links improve and demand for housing rises.



The provincial Government also invested in a new medical centre for the residents of the growing village, and more residents moved in, including a new village doctor.



The Brumella family also had new neighbours – a local orange juice producer opened a new farm and farm store in Seina.



Despite opposition from the local stores, the development of a new market store went ahead on the edge of the village. It contains several food shops and a café. Business was taken away from the local-owned shops and angered community leaders.



Because of the new market shops, the village store owners worked together and signed an exclusive contract with Clementine Farm to sell their orange juice and other citrus fruit products. This gave them an edge over their new rivals. The competition had begun.
