Summerset today. Remnants from the plane crash can be seen.

Summerset was a city located north of Gruvania. Its peak population was 26 during the mayorship of Borisdotpercy. In 2015, after two fatal events, the city was razed completely to the ground and replaced with the farmland areas we see today. Summerset was resurrected as New Summerset, a prosperous city north of Summerset's idyllic lands.

History

There has been said to be people living in Summerset since the 1337 invasion of Ihazon, but very few traces have been found. If any, the previous population would have disappeared long ago.

The modern population of Summerset traces back to the early 1900s. Ihazon was experiencing a growth never seen before, and the city of Summerset naturally evolved as people found new spaces to live. Summerset is a very fertile area and it served well for an agricultural city well fed with food.

Unfortunately, modern expansion of Summerset sacrificed large portions of farms. Over the fields and pastures grew asphalt roads and concrete buildings. Only a few major farms remained, most noticeably Summersetsbury, which was very centrally located for a long time.

During the presidency of Metteliten, the mayor of Summerset was Borisdotpercy. His rise to power was a promise to do great and much needed changes to Summerset. During his mayorship, Summerset saw an economic growth as newfound businesses were incentivized to settle. In addition, Borisdotpercy focused also on establishing a solid connection between Summerset and Slouthceister.

In 2015, however, Borisdotpercy passed away from a rapid growth of cancer. The city administration had currently been under reconstruction, and chaos emerged as to who would take over as new mayor. Before much was decided, the same year we saw the most tragic plane accident in modern time. A fully boarded passenger plane was hijacked and crashed in Summersetsbury. It was discovered that former President, Metteliten, was a passenger on-board. All passengers died.

At the loss of two of the greatest people in Ihazon, HyperDuck became part of a committee to rebuild Summerset's administration. He was given temporary mayorship, which he would give up when they could arrange an election. His first action as mayor, however, was to raze Summerset to the ground to allow for much needed lost farmland. HyperDuck's drastic actions shocked Settians and Ihazonans alike, but HyperDuck laid out plans for a new city just north of Summerset. This would become New Summerset, which is today the fastest growing city in Ihazon.
