Description
Trondheim was founded in 997AD as Kaupangr í Thróndheimi ('The City in The District of Trondheim') by viking king Olav Tryggvason. Shortly after, it was named Nidaros ('The Outlet of the River Nid'), and became the capitol of Norway. It remained capitol until 1217AD, and is today the third largest city in Norway, with close to 200.000 inhabitants.

It is today a university city, being home to NTNU, HiST, St. Olav University Hospital, and SINTEF, among others.

The city also has a proud history in sports, being the home of the football club Rosenborg Ballklub, famed for playing the Champions League 11 years in a row, and reaching the quarter finals in the 1996/97 season. The city also hoasted the 1997 Nordic Skiing world championships in Granåsen, just a 15 minute drive south-west of the downtown area. Other skiing facilities are relatively close, with Vassfjellet, Meråker and Oppdal as the most popular. Many olympians come from Trondheim and the Trøndelag county, the best known in modern times being skiers Marit Bjørgen and Petter Northug, jr.

Popular tourist attractions include the Nidaros Cathedral, The Old Town Bridge, the Tyholt Tower, and Kristiansten Fortress.

Map info:
- European Theme
- All connections, both highway and rail being relatively accurate
- No ore or oil, but plenty of fertile land and forests
- Starting tile is the real life downtown area

@LiterGaming, this map is to scale (18km). Værnes is 30km away to the east, and (the peak of) Vassfjellet is 25km away to the south. If both where to be on the map, you'd fit about four houses in the RL city center. ;P

With terrain.party set to max size (60km), I can barely get both inside the default 5x5. Even zooming so the RL city center is all the way to the left on the 9x9 and Værnes all the way to the right, we're still at double size, and the central square is just east of Jonsvatnet, or near Hommelvik, depending on north-south alignment.

Also, making Nidelva and the canal would be close to impossible with that much land covered due to zoom. :)

It would be cool if you could add Vassfjellet and Værnes Airport locations on the map
