Gyldinhall Dam

The Gyldinhall Dam was a structure constructed by the Northern Cagingia Alliance Treaty in 382 as an effort to keep the waters of the Cagingia from overflowing and destroying crop land, and to provide better transportation and a better fishing economy. At the time construction and the Treaty began in 318, Gyldinhall was a province controlled by Amaridia, until it gained its dependance in 514. The Treaty was established between the Sunshine Nation, Gyldinhall, and its mother country, Amaridia. Money was loaned to the Sunshine Nation to construct the dam, though the money was never paid back in full to Amaridia nor Gyldinhall. The dam was completed after 78 seasons, and the water in the Cagingia began to receed, thus uncovering the Nieajah Valley, a highly disputed territory between the Thwart Kingdom and the Sunshine Nation. The dam also serves as a bridge, connecting the Northern Plainlands with the Stillwater region.

In 681, after a major attack from a terrorist organization, the dam was destroyed, and the Cagingia and surrounding areas were flooded entirely, including part of the capital city of the Sunshine Nation. The dam was later rebuilt in 1061 by Gyldinhall, and has stood since as a historical landmark. Debris from the old dam still sit at the bottom of the lake and of the Cagingia. The new dam was constructed several feet back into the lake from where the old one was, directly on top of the Gyldinhall Terrace.
