Kamabokostadt is a fictional german city built with some resource pack (see below).
It has currently the central market place surrounded by beautiful old buildings, the parish church, the picturesque fishing port and the old strong castle on the top of the mountain (under construction).
There will be more facilities such as the cathedral, the theatre, the city hall and so on.


Edition: Java
Version: 1.7.10
Resource Pack: cocricot+凜TEX+MiniaTuria


I also post the update in detail on Twitter.
Feel free to leave a comment there or below.
Thanks!

Update #1 : by ChikuwaLecker 02/08/2019 6:37:44 amFeb 8th, 2019

The exterior of the castle Fischfleisch (Burg Fischfleisch) is now completely finished!
The south area of the castle consists of the main gate, knights hall, keep and outer bailey.
The dwelling of the lord, the castle chapel and the cemetery are in the north area.
Both two mountains are connected by a huge bridge whose base is used for the prison.

I am working on its interior. Wait and come to see again later.
Thanks!

Thanks again for advocating me below. I agree your all opinion. I am very appreciated that you understand my love to both German and Japan, and also that you enjoy my city itself!

I know this name sounds odd as a german city. I made this name by connecting a two word, kamaboko(a kind of japanese food) and stadt (germ: city).
Though I have lived in Germany before, I don’t fully understand what a german city is. It means this Kamabokostadt is not a realistic german city but rather a imaginative german city in my brain.
Anyway, thanks you both for your comments!
I will build this city gradually. Come to see next update ;)

Well a German city name can be created often by connectiong to words, but Kamaboko is not a German word and that is fail it fails as a German name. Germans make German connected city names with German words of course (Ham-Burg, Frank-Furt, Nürn-Berg, Würz-Burg, Als-Dorf, Saar-Brücken [...]) Another way is to take on German Word and mix it a bit (München from Mönche, Berlin from Bär, Meißen von Meißel [...]) or to Germanaice a Latin name (Aachen from Aquisgrannum, Köln from Colonge, Mainz from Mogontiacum, Speyer from Spira).

I guess someone has to hop in to rescue the poor ChikuwaLecker ...

So first of all, the comments are meant to discuss the project, not the naming, may it be fictional or not. And I have to say that I have seen a lot worse namings than Kamabokostadt, which at least sounds like a town at all, compared to someone naming a whole city Innenstadt, which is just plain stupid. Given the fact of globalization and an evergrowing connection between all the nationstates, why would a japanese-german city name be that impossible?

Oh and by the way: Berlin is derived from slavic berlo, which means swamps. Their coat of arms is kind of a german approach to make sense out of an otherwise senseless thing, that's why there is a bear in it.

So please, before commenting and commenting with your apparently way too highly valued own opinion, please refer to the project than to it's name.

OK, OK, I should have said “I have lived in Germany before and understand German well, and also know well how to construct a german city name.”
You don’t like “wrong” german name, but I like this name.
I don’t think it’s bad to connect two words from different countries to express my respect for them.
Again, you don’t like it, but I like it. That’s all.

lol I think on (or at?) middle or east Asia or central Afrika when I read this name. In case you (the author of this project) are not a German like Henry and me I would like know how you could think that this could be a realistic or atleast good German city name.
