Cornus is a Senator town on the New World founded by unjinz, located on the MRT Taiga Line and MRT Arctic Line.

It has been founded by unjinz at the start of the Gamma World, on the 4th October 2014.
The whole town was designed to be very realistic and modern, to some extent, and features wide roads with tramways together with reasonably modern architecture.

"Cornus" is abbreviated from the town suffix "Corners", which came from "Grover's Corners", a fictional town in the showplay "Our Town" by Thornton Wilder.

Geography

Cornus Information Hill

The town is located on two biomes. The biggest part is located in a Forest Biome, other parts are located in a Plains Biome. Most of the terraforming has been done by hand but with close attention to the original terrain. Notable for the town is the Information hill, near the center of Cornus, where a radio antenna, built by RLcrafters, sits on.

West of the Station Plaza you can find reasonably steep hills and mountains
