Novaterra is one of the oldest nations on the server. It goes back to 31/07/2022. |

== History == |
|||
Novaterra is one of the oldest countries on the server, with the earliest evidence of a Novaterran state as early as the 29<sup>th</sup> of July, 2022. It is a major player in the server history. |
|||
Novaterra was founded on 31/07/22 by FlopsyMC. Shortly after, ZeBoss07 joined, and made much of what is now New Amsterdam. |
|||
=== |
=== Early days === |
||
Novaterra was founded by [[FlopsyMC]] on the 29<sup>th</sup> of July, 2022, on a medium-sized taiga island, later called New Amsterdam. Initially, Novaterra was a one-man nation, but [[ZeBoss07]] joined on the 31<sup>st</sup>. ZeBoss07 constructed most of what is now New Amsterdam.<br> |
|||
The first major issue (01/08/22) was a player named StevensJax settling on the north side of the island, directly in the way of the street and a planned bridge. This later resulted in catastrophe, as at roughly at 21:30 UK Time, a debate broke out deciding an agreement. During this debate, StevensJax's base was griefed. The next day (02/08/22), ZeBoss07 awoke to find that 2 houses were destroyed completely and a large obsidian structure (privated with signs) was constructed by StevensJax. This was reported to deathlife23, who banned Jax for 1 week, she was the only one banned in this situation.<br> |
|||
A short while after, a bridge was made connecting to the smaller [[New Manhattan]]. FlopsyMC built a house there and several vanilla farms were made, as well as a mine.<br> |
|||
After being unbanned, StevensJax rejoined the Server on 17/08/22 and proceeded to pour water over the NSR terminus' redstone wiring. This was reported to Aether85, who proceeded to ban StevensJax for one month. However while reviewing evidence, StevensJax burned the belongings of Daysant, leading to this ban being upped to a permanent ban. However, during the discussion, the events of the discussion on 01/08/22 were brought up again, leading to FlopsyMC being banned for seven days, from 17/08/22 to 24/08/22. |
|||
In early August, [[daysant]] had began the construction of a gold farm on New Manhattan in an attempt to artificially hyperinflate the [[Elementia|Elementian]] economy. However, these plans never materialised. Eventually, the farm was decommissioned due to new mechanics for 1.12.2. |
