Tarvikul

Tarvikul is a small municipality and village in the fictional country of Eldoria, located in the Nordhavn region along the Tarvik River. The municipality covers about 14 square kilometers and had an estimated population of around 1,900 in 2022. The landscape contains rolling farmland, mixed forest, and a shallow river valley that shapes land use and recreation.

Tarvikul originated in the early 18th century as a farming settlement. It grew with a regional road built in the late 19th century and the establishment of a farmers' cooperative that supported dairy farming and local crafts. The 20th century brought small-scale manufacturing and services alongside continued agriculture.

The local economy centers on agriculture—primarily dairy and cereals—alongside timber processing and light manufacturing. Tourism tied to outdoor recreation has grown modestly.

The population is small and aging, with most residents speaking Eldorian and a minority using neighboring languages. The town hosts an annual harvest festival and a weekly market. Notable landmarks include Tarvikul Church, dating to the 18th century, and a restored historic mill.

Tarvikul is governed by a municipal council of nine members, led by a mayor elected every four years. Public services include a primary school, a health clinic, and a volunteer fire brigade. The town lies on regional roads; the nearest railway is about 12 kilometers away, with bus connections to nearby towns.
