BarksBurg

BarksBurg is the town in which the youtube series: Furry Friends In A Nutshell, takes place. According to Squirrel Toons, BarksBurg will be developed more and more as the show progresses. The town is said to be located somewhere near one of the coasts on Acorn Island, but an exact location hasn't been confirmed. as shown in the episode "technological threat" BarksBurg has a steady but rising and falling population of 8,0000. The coastal town has been shown to be very eco friendly but advanced despite its old fashioned look. some instances of this are that 99 percent of the cars that run in the city are electric even though the cars have a carbon based look. there are said to be over 958 air filters in the city that cleanse the air and carbon dioxide that the steam engines produce. The town has gone through many names historically such as "DustRock" during the western era, "CavernHollow" during the old era, and "WindCove" during the sea era.

Economy
The town has been shown to be very financially well, and consists of many various different businesses, including restaurants, stores, and manufacturers. The city has a stable economy, a balanced education system, questionable healthcare, and labor laws, a structured government, and a firm law enforcement system. There are even stadiums, amusement parks, and other recreational facilities such as CogsWorth.

Location
BarksBurg's exact pinpoint location is unknown. but what is known is that the town is somewhere on the west-south coast of Acorn Island. Evidence of this is that in the episode "Moonshot" james's space ship is seen flying from the west-south coast of Acorn Island. In the episode "Chain Reaction" a nuke is seen flying towards the westt-south coast. In the 2030 special, when tom sings the song "More more more" the camera zooms out on the west-south coast of Acorn Island. And when Tom sings the song "I want home" a bucket of slack spills on the ground, forming a puddle shaped like acorn island with the word "home" and an arrow pointed at the west-south coast of Acorn Island!

An odd thing is that in the comic "Bathtime" Luke says that he knows its a free country. it is unknown exactly what the name of this country is.

Landscape
BarksBurgs geography is very flat but also consist of large rolling hills, grassy meadows, tall mountains with long and winding quarry rails that wrap around them, dense forests,swamps, and lakes. There is a large wall of mountain behind BarksBurg that streches for roughly 20 miles! This giant wall is known as Mount Pecan and was part of the reason BarksBurg wasn't discovered for so long.

Architecture
BarksBurg seems to be mostly made of three main classes of building styles, which include:

tree houses
tree houses seem to be the most common structure type in BarksBurg. These houses mainly consist of abnormally large trees, logs, hills, and rocks. These houses also seem to be the most eco friendly type in the town considering their giant leaves or anything growing on them tends to also act as an air filter, thus is how they are so popular.

cylinder houses
cylinder houses seem to mostly be made up of metal and whatever stuff gets imported from goods trains that run in and out of the town. These houses are tall and cylinder shaped, every one always has atleast one exhaust pipe somewhere on them. It is unknown exactly what these pipes do but it is most likely a vent pipe for the plumbing.

modern houses
modern houses are the least eco friendly houses in BarksBurg, tending to be made of concrete and other materials. these houses are the rare few houses that are left from the old era, when planet Bortron was polluted.

Environment
BarsksBurg is shown to be quite a clean city. Littering is highly prohibited and in the comic "every litter bit" James got a ticket for littering, and the areas around BarsksBurg are pristine. The only problem is that BarksBurg and BarsksBurg only is doing anything eco friendly, as no other known city has the time nor patience to do eco friendly practices, what peices of shi-. As mentioned previously, many areas of BarksBurg are extremely clean and pristine. The citizens of BarksBurg value their environment more than they value the internet.

Trivia

 * 1) BarksBurg has been destroyed over 68 times in the  show.
 * 2) Most of BarksBurgs railways are narrow gauge and steam powered. There is said to only be an estimated 3 standard gauge lines, and only 2 diesel engines in the town. The town is also said to only have 1 mainline exit by rail and 1 other exit that has been long abandoned leading to an unkown area.

 * 4) BarksBurg only has 2 mainline exits by road, and  1 mainline exit by highway.
 * 5) The Narrow Den CO Mining Division is said to be haunted by a ghost train that only appears at midnight and midday. This haunting was caused by a mining accident at the mine, when a 0-6-2 tender engine was reported pulling a slate train with a whopping 24 mining carts on a rickety bridge. The bridge couldn't stand the weight and collapsed with the locomotive on it. The tender engine tumbled down the the mountain with the tender snapping off the previously thought "indestructible" drawbar coupling and landed in a cow pasture. The engine wasn't so lucky, said locomotive landed in the ocean, exploding afterwards. the only car that wasn't destroyed was the brake van which housed a workman. The driver was found unconscious nearby. Even worse was that the accident was caused by the driver's carelessness as he was reading a newspaper while driving! That line was shut down after and now most engines are created with an awareness of their surroundings and self driving capabilities.
 * 6) The fate of BarksBurg is unknown but many believe that the town will eventually fall into the ocean as the water erodes away the land.
 * 7) BarksBurg has large 2 storms that happen twice a year. These storms are actually class 2 tornados and are known as The Storms.
