Vadimbaatar (Blue Lontinian: Vadımbatır; Krasnocorian: Вадимбатар, Vadimbatar), known as Camp 59 until 1694 and formerly Bræstmjólkflóibýur (until 1685), is a town in northern Lontinien (Hurmu), along the River Glacei, where Zeedic military personnel were put into internment following the Zeedic declaration of war against the Raspur Pact in 1693. In early 1694, it had a population of 6300, including 5800 Zeedic military personnel, and civilians of both Hurmu and Zeedic nationality who voluntarily joined the exodus to the Camp. In the end of 1694, the population had risen to around 20,000, including 10,000 refugees from Zeed who voluntarily sought to move to Vadimbaatar's ethnic enclave. All inhabitants of the town, excepting for the duration of hostilities the 5,800 interned military personnel from Zeed, are allowed free movement within Hurmu.

Media, sympathetic to the Zeedic cause after Zeed's constant source of solidarity for Hurmu matters since 1689, quickly dubbed the camp Vadimbaatar, "Hero Vadim" after the former Zeedic statesman Vladim Vasyliovich Timoshenko, better known as "Vadim". In 1694, this name became official, replacing Camp 59 on maps.

Due to the friendly relations between Hurmu and Zeed, the Hurmu authorities were keen on ensuring that Vadimbaatar feels like a normal town rather than an internment camp in the like of the 58 other ones in the Southern District. Although policed around its borders (checking against military personnel leaving the area), it is open to visitors. The Hurmu–Zeed Friendship Society has a big chapter there, and Hurmu people visit the town to show their Zeedic heroes their solidarity, bringing food and luxury products, and money to the town's emerging economy.

Most of the population is currently tasked in renovating the towns' buildings (the town was erected on a former Storish Vanic-only resort, under the name of Bræstmjólkaflóabýur (literally "breast milk river town", after the Storish name for the River Glacei), which since the disintegration of the Vanic web in the 1685 has remained under state control) and bringing them fit for habitation and purpose.

By 1695, the town had grown to assume some 10,000 refugees from Zeed, who voluntarily asked to be settled in their national enclave in Lontinien.

Following the end of internment in 1697 AN the part of the city which had formerly comprised Camp 59 was transferred to the Hurmu Peace Corps and redesignated as HPC Depot Vadimbaatar. Thereafter the Depot would host regiments and other various subunits assigned to the region by the Land Department of the HPC.

A bridge to connect Vadimbaatar with Al-Khadra is being constructed, projected for 1710.
