nibelheim

A fictional town from the video game Final Fantasy VII. It was the hometown of Cloud Strife and Tifa Lockheart until it was destroyed by Sephiroth. The town was later rebuilt by the Shinra corporation in a cover-up operation and actors were hired to replace the townspeople.

The name 'Nibelheim' is probably a mistranslation of 'Niflheim' - The realm of the dead in Norse mythology.

Nibelheim was destroyed five years ago
