"a hope-filled fledgeling nation"

That's what Oniyuri sounds like on paper. A small town made by annoyed aristocrats tired of their government who wanted to start their own in response.

But we don't actually know the reality yet. Given the very-not ruined look of the place, looking more like it was just abandoned mid-construction, I feel something else was at place.

Besides, the Grimm could have simply been passing by. People love to argue with "negative emotions attract Grimm, no negativity = No attraction", but in reality, Grimm don't need negativity. It attracts them, but it doesn't mean they won't attack a village just for not having enough negativity.
