History

Note: dates are in DD/MM/YYYY and times are in UTC.

Pre-CivMC

Weirdscraftland started out on the now-inactive server ScratchCiv on 26/05/2020 as a nation with the same name[1]. It eventually died with the server closing, starting a hiatus lasting over two and a half years.

Early History

In late January/early February 2023, minecraft_win(probably) had the idea of reviving Weirdscraftland on another server, and Magnileve suggested that they do it on CivMC. He initially wanted to estabilish Weirdscraftland in Varathia, but then decided estabilishing the country in Letos since the area was better to build on. The Treefarmguys Town Hall was built shortly thereafter, on 08/02/2023, and MinersHavenM43 joined on the same day. Due to some issues however, s claim announcement was not made anywhere.

On 05/03/2023, AfterFlash made a claim on the Discord announcing his nation Yashinov Federation of Socialist Republics[2]. These claims overlapped with Weirdscraftland's, and AfterFlash did not let go of his claims since Weirdscraftland never declared its claims, which started an argument which lasted for around 20 minutes, after which AfterFlash moved his claims to Impendia, without affecting Weirdscraftland's claims. Four days later on 09/03/2023, the issues were resolved and the claim announcement was posted to the CivMC subreddit[3]. On 14/03/2023, Weirdscraftland was invited to join the Cinian Union, which it agreed to.

Construction of Terra Leporis Maximi

On 24/03/2023, Miner was invited to construct a farm for Terra Leporis Maximi after finding their voice channels being used. He helped in the building of much of the infrastructure in T.L.M. Magnileve, the founder of T.L.M., allowed him to take materials and tools to Weirdscraftland, bringing some wealth to Weirdscraftland.

Lesnerian Conflict

Despite Weirdscraftland being a part of the Cinian Union, Weirdscraftland was largely unaffected by the war, but still suffered some damage. All Cinian Union leaders were classified as POS, and on 02/05/2023 ItzHoover was sent to snitch Weirdscraftland, snitching most of the main roads. At 23:17, Miner logged on and became close to being pearled by Hoover. However, Hoover did not pearl him, stating Miner was unarmoured and it would be unfair to pearl him, and instead both had a conversation about the war lasting a few minutes, after which Hoover removed the snitches and left the country.

Geography

Lethesrod

Lethesrod (ᛚᛖᚦᛖᛋᚱᚩᛞᛞ Leþesrodd), also known as the Central Valley, is the valley in the center of Weirdscraftland. It is bordered entirely by mountains, save for the openings on the south and east. It is the most developed area, and currently where all citizens live.

The valley has two lakes:

  • The Tuesmere (ᛏᛁᚹᛖᛋᛗᛖᚱᛖ Tīwesmere) in the east, fed by a stream originating in the Twomarks Range. It is surrounded by a forest and planted sugar cane and bamboo.
  • The Twoeve Lake (ᛏᚹᚪᛡᛁᛖᚠᚪ ᛚᚪᛣᚢ Twāġiefa Lacu) in the center, just south of Treefarmguys. It was artificially made by placing water on an old dirt quarry probably dug by Letos.

It is named after a now-destroyed pillar made of polished deepslate, likely as a marker for a house because of the outline surrounding it. The first element lethes comes from OE leþes (genitive singular of leþ < PGmc *leþaz < PIE *lét-os).

Markfeld

Markfeld (ᛗᛠᚱᛣᚠᛖᛚᛞ Mearcfeld) is the mountain range surrounding Lethesrod, being only slightly developed; the only building is an uninhabited house last used in early November 2022, nd a tree farm near it.

Rosefeld

Rosefeld (ᚱᚩᛋᛖᚠᛖᛚᛞ Rosefeld) is the exterior surrounding the nation, being barely developed, only being comprised of Greatrich Avenue and two quarries in the east; the south quarry going to y=57, and the north one going to y=-45. There are plans to build an autonomous city in the north by ShrekPrvni.

Connection and Road Infrastructure

Weirdscraftland has an internal road network spanning the easternmost point of the country, to Wheatfarmacre. Roads east of Treefarmguys were built by Letos, while those west of the city were all built by Weirdscraftland. All roads in the network are simple dirt paths and 3 blocks wide, and some have illumination in the form of deepslate posts with a lantern on the side.

Weirdscraftland is connected through OneDest via /dest ! +,- lyrean lambat cape_cocoa weirdscraftland. Outside of rail connection, Weirdscraftland does not have any roads leading outside the country, with the exception of bridges that go nowhere that don't connect with the main road system, although there are plans of making a bridge to Achiuwa.

Settlements

Treefarmguys

Treefarmguys (ᛏᚱᛖᚩᚹᚠᛖᚩᚱᛗᚷᚣᛋ Trēowfeormgȳs) is the capital of Weirdscraftland in central Lethesrod. It has three districts:

  • Pondfarm: the urban part of Treefarmguys. Currently, it has three structures: the Town Hall, a bar, and Miner's house. Also planned are a proper train station, a factoryhouse, and the Yoyle Tower. Named after the capital of ScratchCiv Weirdscraftland (Pondfarmguys).
  • Wheatfarmacre: a wheat farm located on the eastern part of Lethesrod, it was abandoned as it is nearly impossible to bot due to the rough northwestern border.
  • Earthquarryacre: an oak tree farm located on the southern portion of Lethesrod, which, as of yet, has never been used.

Cragdude

Cragdude (ᛣᚪᚱᚱᚪᛣᛞᚢᛞᚪ Carracduda) is a mining town built by Vejou on 08/05/2023 in northwest Lethesrod. As of now, Vejou is the only resident, and the only building is the Plaza, mostly functioning as Vejou's home.
