Ladies, gentlemen, and gamers,



  My (online) friends and I have been building on a private server for quite some time now. VoyagerSix, the owner of the server, first opened it in early 2019. At first, we were mainly freebuilding everything that would go through our mind, on a superflat world. Indeed, it was believed the server wouldn't last a week, yet we turned it into a somewhat functionning contemporary city-state with a government, an army, and multiple companies scattered in diverse districts.

  The server now aims at delivering higher quality and more realistic buildings.



Who ?

- VoyagerSix, owner of the server, curent leader of the Navy and the Space Program, and owner of STAT (Shandian Transport Army and Technology).

- Vincent2k3, myself, co-owner of the server, owner of VAE (Vincent Advanced Engineering), and marshall of the army.

- Clyran, co-owner of BD (BlockDrop), now inactive.

- Loop (Fazan), owner of Loops Futuristics and numerous small businesses.

- MonsterNik, Clutterclub, DiegoCBlox, Jade, among others.





What ?

The city is broken down into multiple districts like I've said before :

  - Downtown : with its high Skyline (being on a superflat world allows us to have 250 blocks high buildings). It also contains the Parliament building, the central railway station, a museum, and the quadragon (square ripoff of the pentagon: demolished c. 2024).

  - NSS (New SkyStread) : a town which emerged from an uprising. Their former leader was Clyran. The town is aimed at giving a beautiful and enjoyable environment to live in. It is now part of the Federal Republic of New Shandian since its unification in 2022.

  - MC (Miral City) : a formerly independent republic west of New Shandian, led by TrollBlox (M1ralx). It is now part of the Federal Republic of New Shandian since its flash invasion in december 2023.

  - Discovery district : the most modern district of all, mixing low and medium size housings, parks, shops, offices, and an university.

  - The industrial disctrict : populated by many factories and plants, featuring a Tchernobyl inspired power plant, blast furnaces, refineries, and an important train delivery network. Most of the factories are owned by VAE and STAT.

  - Novakov : an eastern-european inspired neighbourhood, filled with the most brutalist concrete slabs ever produced!

  - South NS : aka Parisian district, housing 19th century classic French-styled buildings, industrial architecture, fancy roads and lamposts, as well as a future gothic church.

  - The suburbs : basically a freebuild zone with small scale housings, restaurants, a theatre, ... DESTROYED JANUARY 2023



How ?

- The version used is Java 1.21.10, modded client-side with Fabric, Sodium, Distant Horizons, WorldEdit, Axiom, and other QoL mods.
- We use WorldEdit and Axiom server-side to make it easier to build (damn, it really saves us quite some time).



If you have any idea, any advice to give us, feel free to comment.




Thank you for your attention, hope you enjoy our work !






PS : So as to respect the privacy of our server, and the rules of planetminecraft, I will not communicate further informations about the server itself, or our communications methods.
PS2 : I've tried my best to avoid structures and props that can be found in YouTube tutorials, but I may have missed some during the framing. If you are the author/related to the author and see your/their créations on the screenshots, please contact me immediately so that I can edit the page.

Hi ! Sorry, the map is quite big and is being actively developped by a bunch of people, and most importantly I am not the owner which means I do not have access to the save files.

However it might be one day available, once it'll be deemed completed enough or abandonned.



If you want more screenshots about specific buildings for you and your friends, feel free to contact me.
