'''SimVille''' is a fanon neighbourhood created by [[User:K6ka|K6ka]]. It originated from the [httphttps://modthesims.info/download.php?t=248393 SimVille Italian project], a custom neighbourhood made by [[Mod The Sims]] creators lagianfra, MaryLou, Max3D, Numenor, and Simmer. All of the residential lots were modified or removed, new lots were added, and the hood was populated with Sims. While the neighbourhood has existed since 2014, it was never revealed to the public until April 2017 with [httphttps://modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=593256 this thread] on Mod The Sims.

As I have been invited into [httphttps://modthesims.info/forumdisplay.php?f=546&groupid=906 this group] I figured I may as well do ''something'' here... Granted, right now I've just finished classes and am into exam season. I really should be studying, but you see, I'm not exactly the most focused of students...
 
Anyways, I've been hiding this neighbourhood from the public (mostly), save for a few pictures here and there in the TS2 Pictures forum and some name-dropping. I guess it's time to be a little more open (although not obsessed) about it.
 
A good while ago (must've been at least two years if memory serves) I downloaded [httphttps://modthesims.info/download.php?t=248393 SimVille], an Italian project made by lagianfra, MaryLou, Max3D, Numenor, and Simmer. I removed or greatly modified all of the residential lots, though I didn't really touch the community lots all that much. I added in several apartments and decorations to make it seem a bit more "city-like" and plopped down a ton of lots on an unused, empty section of road. I tried to preserve the neighbourhood's original integrity as much as possible, and while it definitely won't win any contests here on MTS, I like how it turned out.
 
So, here's what the hood looks like now!
Line 53:
{{Quote|The weather was fair and square, not a cloud in the sky, and the temperature was warm enough for men and boys to go shirtless. There in the procession were ten boats, all of them filled with priests, village leaders, and all the offerings that were to be made once they got there—goats, sheep, maize (corn), llamas—[...] They were making their way across the Tasman [River] to the sacred temple when a strong wind over the water picked up, sending waves splashing over the gunwale into the boats. Four of the boats quickly began to sink. The priests, leaders, and rowers all hastily jumped overboard and swam to the remaining boats, scrambling onboard. The extra weight and unbalance caused those boats to list and sway unsettlingly, and as the waves lapped over the gunwale, they too began to sink. All the priests and leaders knew how to swim, but all that was left for the offering were a few bananas and three goats that managed not to drown. [...] The gods were angry and punished Kaleovich with an extended rainy season, drowning some fields and causing flooding in the settlement.}}
 
By 1100, the empire was beginning to crumble as numerous "barbaric" tribes appeared from the north and south, attacking settlements and raiding farms and temples. The Aciremas had initially attempted to pacify the tribes with bribes and payments, but this quickly bankrupted the empire. The Aciremian empire was engulfed in civil war, and by 1110, it had broken up into six different kingdoms, all of them too weak to defend against the invaders. There is no official date as to when the Aciremian empire collapsed, though, as the local governments were frequently assimilated into their new rulers rather than simply being overthrown. The last of these wars ended around 1141, which some say marked the official end of the Aciremian empire. After the war ended, many of the tribes adopted the Aciremian religion, which helped foster peace and unity amongst the drastically different groups, although they remained separate for the most part.
 
Kaleovich was captured in 1139, although it was not renamed. The attackers—the Ocixems—Ocixems—had had seigedsieged the settlement for ten months straight, finding the geography extraordinarily difficult to navigate. The water and the cliffs provided a natural defense that, combined with the palisade, made it seem almost impossible to defeat. However, this natural defense also imprisoned the Aciremians inside, rendering them unable to escape. The Ocixem were eventually able to construct better canoes and boats that were fast and easy to maneuver, allowing them to quickly attack fishermen and soldiers along the coast, and brought archers within range of the palisade. Around 11pm on August 30, 1139, several Ocixem boats rowed silently towards the island where Kaleovich stood. Ocixem archers lit their arrows on fire and launched them towards the wooden palisade, which burned down quickly. Having nowhere to go, the Aciremians surrendered, and at least one hundred of them were beheaded and thrown into the water. Like many of the other tribes, the Ocixem adopted the Aciremian religion, and the temple was not damaged by the fighting.
 
The Ocixem lived in the area for several hundred years until 1861, when [[Admiral Landgraab]], on a government-sponsored expedition to spread the borders of SimNation westward, conquered the Ocixems, whom he considered "barbaric" and "in need of civilization". The Ocixem, having established Kaleovich as a vital trading and military post, fought to the bitter end; in the resultant fighting, the entire town was burned to the ground. Admiral Landgraab assigned a governor to rebuild the settlement and continued westward, having no interest in attacking the Aciremian temple. The governor—a John Simovitch—renamed the settlement SimVille and began rebuilding it. In 1862, Landgraab County was created, and SimVille became part of the county in 1864.

==Climate==
SimVille has a very warm, almost tropical-like climate, seeingwith rainy and dry seasons as opposed to summer and winter.<ref group="n">Since "rainy" and "dry" are not one of the seasonal options in ''The Sims 2: Seasons'', I set it to be [[summer]] all year round and use SimWardrobe's [httphttps://simfileshare.net/download/257842/ Weather Controller vase] to make it rainy or sunny at my command.</ref>
 
In the past, SimVille had a wetter, rainier climate due to the presence of nearby dense rainforests. Recent deforestation has reduced the amount of rainfall in SimVille, leading to shorter rainy seasons and longer dry seasons.
