International Village is the largest village in the world of SpongeCraftia, as well as the most densely built-in area. It straddles three countries, Historic SpongeCraftia, Unknown SpongeCraftia, and British SpongeCraftia, which is where its name is derived from. International Village features a large villager population, and an eclectic style of architecture. The International Village River is featured prominently north of the city, with IV Forest and Lake Chickenleg to the east. A network of canals and rivers also run throughout the city, with a variety of areas completely surrounded by water. International Village Square is the historic center of IV and is the city's commercial center. While technically part of three different countries, IV has historically acted as its own independent country. It is known for its long rivalry with Squidville.
