To add some extra probably unnecessary info:
Hedgehugs and AD basically surrounded the overall area. Hidden Leaf village fell first to inactivity. After a while Forty Thieves on the surface + underground 1st level became two different villages one after the other yet their base didn't have much activity. Then some hermit who would regularly steal from branch fenced active bases took the area under a personal claim along with the Hidden Leaf mines until he became inactive (not sure when). After some time Yggdrasil starting expanding over them. I may be wrong but it seemed that Yggdrasil broke inside that village to destroy Vegetable Ninja realm related buildings. I think it was this year.
I know all this because I used Hidden Leaf to not only get stuff but also craft things of high quality last year. Even rebuilt the palisade to give me more time to do stuff. Then destroyed most of their HQ buildings so others don't get to keep them if they move there since I didn't want to use a claim and manage it there. After that I made various rounds to check on the area to see its state, mostly for the mines to do my blacksmith credo.
Anyone knows what happened with Therion and their village on the top-right? When I made my rounds of scouting abandoned bases I found this village top right of them that looked to be some sort of Therion related base that became recently inactive when I found it. I remember being in a race against another scavenging hermit on a daily basis to get stuff from it. Then all of a sudden most of their base got destroyed, including their cheese houses. Then later found Therion was pretty much destroyed and claimed. And I'm pretty sure it wasn't my scavenging rival...
