The Valley at Neufreistadt -- A CDS Community

[Tor Karlsvalt]

Come be a part of our well established community of the Confederation of Democratic Simulators.   The Valley of Neufreistadt offers a tranquil, rural lifestyle in the shadow of the old City of Neufreistadt.   Neufreistadt is among the oldest private islands in Second Life.   Originally named Neualtenburg, this region has been the center of the democratically governed and resident owned estate of the Confederation of Democratic Simulators.  Owning land in this venerable estate is your opportunity to further the long history and tradition of this experiment in virtual governance.  The Valley of Neufreistadt is also just a beautiful location for your Second Life home.  Currently, there are two parcels available:

P170 Neufreistadt, L$2607 monthly tier, 1456 sq.m., 444 prims

P140 Neufreistadt, L$1347 monthly tier, 752 sq. m. 229 prims

Our estate consists of six regions that have loosely based Germanic, Tuscan, Alpine, and Mediterranean themes, representing different historical periods. The CDS is not a role-playing community.

All are welcome to visit, explore, and become a part of our dynamic community. Land ownership in the CDS means citizenship, with the right to vote, run for office, and have a say in the direction and projects of the regions.

Owning land in the CDS: we have a diverse selection of parcels to choose from in the six regions. If you want to set up a small home just to ‘test’ if you like it in our community, there are parcels available for as little as $1/US a month. If a sprawling mansion is more your speed, there are large rural parcels available within our beautifully landscaped regions that might just suit. Our covenants define the style of buildings allowed. This keeps the region themes intact and creates a contiguous continent that is pleasant to travel around in, with spectacular views and many public spaces for the use of citizens. Just ask any one of our Estate Managers for assistance in finding the parcel that fits your needs. We are always happy to help.

Check the list of available land.  We have many parcels of different sizes to accommodate any budget or level of interest.  See actual land prices inworld via Land Tools.  All tier(rent) is monthly.  The purchase price represents your first 30 days of tier.  

The CDS was established in 2004 and is the oldest estate in Second Life owned and democratically governed by its residents.  Come be part of the tradition.   We have fun too.   For more information about our community, visit our portal, or Facebook.

I love Neufreistadt and the CDS!  When I found the community 7 years ago it was just what I was searching for - a real community, and with a mechanism for becoming a part of everything.  The CDS is run by its citizens, and you become a citizen when you purchase a parcel and live there.  

Also, it's very inexpensive!

What Rosie said! This is a really welcoming community, and unique in its government where all citizens have the right to vote. The Neufreistadt valley is a particularly beautiful and relaxing area with its green hills (snowy in the winter; we have seasons in the CDS!) and gently sloping roads. It's very close to the city itself, where there is much to see and explore.

The six regions of the CDS each have their own "personalities", so come have a look and like I did, you may just wind up staying!
