Eyjafjallajökull
Description
Two tile impassable natural wonder. It appears as a Volcano and provides +1 Culture and +1 Food. On eruption it gives medium yields and is most likely to damage buildings and districts. Infrequently erupts, but is always active.
Historical Context
Eyjafjallajökull is the name for both an Icelandic volcano and the ice cap plugging its caldera. Though the volcano has remained active for over a millennia, it was little known outside of Iceland until a minor eruption in 2010. Its subsequent ash cloud halted air traffic in Europe for nearly a week and spawned thousands of hours of breathless news reports. Eyjafjallajökull's eruptions have traditionally predicted even larger eruptions of the nearby Katla, a far more active subglacial volcano—much to the chagrin of European air traffic controllers.
