In the US, you have to pay for that privilege. Your family will need land they own, someone to pay taxes on them, etc. At graveyards, most are 'leases.'

It's certainly true for Germany. At least any "normal" graveyard. I haven't really interacted with the "death system" yet (knock on wood) but yeah, graves have a TTL :P

edit: but I wouldn't phrase that as "not taking death seriously"

5 gens, that's awesome. Sorry for off-topic, but did you research your family history to find them or was it already known to your immediate family?

Everyone just knows where they were all buried. The church owns almost all these graveyards so they stay around a long time.

Competition is fierce to get into some of the ancestral graves.
