Isreal is a settlement located in the North Eastern section of the RetroMC Overworld. Its location was discovered by the player  AYoungJew69 on April 27th, 2023 and subsequently claimed. Over the years Isreal has grown to be the one of the largest solo building projects in RetroMC and includes but not limited to over 5500 claims. Inside the settlement includes not one, but multiple nations and cities inside of its great walls.

History & Info

Prehistory

 AYoungJew69 joined RetroMC on April 22nd, 2021 and earning the prestigious rank of [Wanderer]. Within the first two years of his time on RetroMC  AYoungJew69 spend most of his time lollygagging and generally contributing very little to the deep history of the server.

2021

Inspired and locked in  AYoungJew69 unofficially founded the soon to be great Isreal in hopes to grow a great and beautiful singleplayer-style land surrounded by the sites and culture of RetroMC

First, was created King David's Keep located on a peninsula in the region of the Great Rift along the sea of the Breaditerranean. Along with the first Castle created in Isreal, a Royal Trap and Stash House was created for storage and relaxation to take in the views of the sunset and the soon to be developed land.

Large Aqueducts were erected in conjunction with Royal Gardens to feed water to the now forgotten crops that used to feed Isreal.

The very first town of which the original name is yet undiscovered soon sprouted up out of nowhere, surprising  AYoungJew69. To that point the land had seemed desolate and undeveloped, but through discovery it appeared as if the previous inhabitants of this land are no longer to be found. Their architecture seemed to be obscured and hidden through some sort enigmatic magic.  AYoungJew69, unbothered in his quest for dopest village in the server, he had named the newly appeared spot Methlehem.

One day while shearing a sheep, instead of the fresh wool falling on the ground, the wind whisked away the block, and soon a storm encircled around  AYoungJew69 almost completely blinding his vision and destroying his ears via being a headphone user. Once the /vote had ended, a group of homes found themselves where the beaches of the Dead Sea Cove once were. Naturally  AYoungJew69 claimed them as more vacation properties.

2022

A new year, and an old face resembling the natural fauna of the forests of RetroMC started to carve itself into the rock and once fully excavated began to cry liquid magma. Once noticed,  AYoungJew69 inspected the site, and was gifted (or cursed) with visions that flashed images of the people that once lived within these lands even before the servers founding.

Through further exploration, great pyramids rose from the shifting sands of the Radisha Dunes, revealing what appears to be some sort of solar powering station. Redstone being currently the only usable power source on the server, it appears that the previous builders that inhabited the land once had technology that far out-updated that in which the players can currently harness. Armed with this lack of knowledge,  AYoungJew69 quickly named the property the Luxor Tomb and turned the property into a resort and golf course for himself and anyone permitted to enter Isreal's border.

2023

Officially  AYoungJew69 begins claiming the land surrounding the initial builds officially founding the nation of Isreal. With this momentous occasion,  AYoungJew69 knights and kings himself as well as declaring himself the Sole Proprietor of Isreal

The very first of the public works in the nation began to be developed by starting the gravel roads that now connect all the builds within her borders.

Visions once again came to Isreal's reclusive leader, and directed him to key sites to excavate in order to uncover further knowledge of the ancient builders. Dig Site Bravo and Sigma were subsequently created, and discovered odd shrines gilded in gold and surrounded by redstone torches as well as being topped by netherrack and left still burning even until this day. These sites appear to be older than any other current uncovered build, and for some odd reason had not reveled themselves without direct intervention. Within the lowest level of the first tunnel dug at Dig Site Bravo a great obsidian obelisk sprung from the rock unnaturally. This large object seemed to transcend space and time and also seemed to resemble monoliths already found throughout the land. In Dig Site Sigma through digging through the sand appeared to be another obelisk and what remains an unnamed city, which is of the same historical period of the pyramid power station.

Fueled by once again by the lust for knowledge and ultimate power  AYoungJew69 expanded and founded multiple new cities within the then borders of Isreal creating both Jewrulesalem and Lazareth which connect both the edges of the Radisha Dunes and the Great Rift.

Needing a new base of operations for managing the expansion of the settlement Castle Masada was contracted to be built as the new seat of power within Isreal and included the finest luxuries a player could craft.

Again without intervention, more ancient structures appeared such as an odd shrine upon the edge of the Dead Sea Cove border and a large subterranean tunnel that spanned to both coasts connecting the water ways of the Breaditerranean and Dead Sea.

Great walls were built around the initial settlement to prevent encroachment from [Wanderers] as well as protect the young, weak, and most definitely poor (broke-ahh). With walls now surrounding and protecting the fledgling land, his ambition soon grew outward.

With new access to waterways all throughout the southern regions Isreal economic conditions soon grew, and soon the Stone Corporation was incorporated and Bricked Up Factory was constructed shortly after. Since so many excavation projects were underway,  AYoungJew69 founded the Minors Guild for all children of whos souls yearn for the mines, and whos labor is easily exploited. Mines before the guild were sad and pathetic and were used at the much inferior y level of 12, instead of the true sigma's choice of y 11, and with that the diamond trade flourished.

The final act of the year was capped off with the founding of Holy Temple, with its design being given vaguely within the obelisks visions. Once completely the monasteries quarters appeared almost out of thin air like a falling veil and began to flower a small oasis within the Radisha Dunes. Weirdly yet, once building was complete, another shrine was found at the center of its dome. It was almost as if things were being built to fulfil some sort of unknown purpose.

2024

With the turning of another year, the settlement of Isreal soon encompassed multiple sovereign and independent nations; Palastein, Lemonon, Seereal, Iron, and Chicken. Walls and gates soon were soon created to finally enclose the entirety of what now makes up the modern day settlement. Without knowing of the /v map  AYoungJew69 haphazardly claimed the land around and mostly purchased every claim within her borders.

The quaint and scenic city of Gahzah was soon created along the Breaditerranean to take advantage of the perfect plot of land that would serve as the cities port and the main docking point for Isreal naval fleet. Another castle was soon crafted on the top of the hill looking over the sea and named Fort Nimrod.

Isreal's naval expansion gave way to new ways of conquest and defense of the land, and with the visions of the past and future growing more within the mind of  AYoungJew69 plans for a great military installation went underway. The largest of the current castles in the land soon was finished, which includes the largest nuclear warhead supply in the servers history. To this day it is not clear weather the weapons are actually capable of destruction, or if its some sort of pump-fake situation to ward off would be griefers and ne'er-do-wells. The location was aptly named Fort Al Udead and is the current headquarters of the Ministry of Peace. This time, without a shrine revealing itself  AYoungJew69 managed to find a way to create his own, and placed it within the highest chamber of the base, and soon the building erupted with an energy naked to the human eye.

Noticing a lack of housing for the would be theoretical soldiers, the city of Demasskit was soon developed in the Gold Heights, and now over looks the northern Obsidian Sea.

The next projects went underway without a hitch, with the Iron Dome being constructed and finished in order to study the stars in hopes to discover a way to pierce through the far lands and find a way to escape our current blocky reality into the land of spheres and triangles.

Next the Ministry of Truth was made along the Sighnai Beach which now currently houses the United Biomes and is the current Embassy to the Imperial Union of Nordheim.

Not satisfied with a dozen homes already  AYoungJew69 had commissioned a Royal Cabin be built along his favorite forest; the mysterious Al Jewzira.

While exploring around the Lemonon Bay  AYoungJew69 had tripped and fell down a deep hole in which he thought was just a normal cave. Except this cave lead yet again to another site of the ancients, which looked even older yet then even the oldest sites found in the shifting sands. The depths were cold and devoid of light, but once another group of shrines were uncovered it all started to make sense. Being no accident, he noticed these shrines lacked power, with the central peak being unlit. Quickly he created a /home in the location and teleported back home to grab a flint and steel to finish the ritual. The fire glowed the brightest orange ever seen and bleaching his irl monitor and completely frying the computer.

After a relog and some time allegedly grinding for wool (unconfirmed), the rocks around the cave started to shift and crack open the earth. Water poured from the sea into the cave, and what must have been some old hero's name appeared on the gold block "Brian". Turning towards the East, a city of pillars emerged from the dunes. The city was like nothing  AYoungJew69 had ever witnessed, with lights as far as the eye could see and design work that some how mirrored the buildings in the Dead Sea Cove. A name came to his head almost instantly; Bayroot. While exploring the city, he noticed the signs already included the names of already established names of corporations and iconography that only could have existed in the current time, but to his knowledge these buildings still somehow predate the server.

Overwhelmed by the prospect of these truths  AYoungJew69 had found a way to travel through time into the future to ponder what he had discovered. New lands, yet familiar to what once was like a parallel reality with all sorts of new unknown realms (Modern Bugrock) and discoveries yet unknown to our current time.

2025

Not much is known about  AYoungJew69 or Isreal's history through this year, some say he quit some say he was playing other games, some also say nothing. The server may never know.

2026

Teleporting back to the past and somehow the present,  AYoungJew69 had somehow returned.

Not satisfied with his current farming situation for the resident of Isreal, new farming techniques learned from the future were stolen from their time and brought to the past to hopefully enable the nation to never be broke again. Redstone work the likes you've never seen, unless you are able to sit through two minutes of Liberty Mutual commercials on YouTube.

While returning back,  AYoungJew69 noticed his nations lack of proper infrastructure and vowed to use the forbidden knowledge learned from these alleged ancient builders, and experience in the future to improve the life of the nations people.

The community welcomed the player back to server with open arms, and through the collectives server knowledge,  AYoungJew69 learned of Monolithism and how that and the obelisks, and maybe even the ancient builders are some how related. After traveling to the Holy Monolith,  AYoungJew69 had outreached his blocky arm out to the fringed rock and soon more visions expanded his mind to see the truth once more, the message must be spread. PRAISE THE MONOLITH!!!

Looking to expand his influence and trying to leave his reclusive nature behind he had joined a proper nation of players the Imperial Union of Nordheim.

The largest of infrastructure projects had started and the Monolith had demanded a proper rail line for visitors to the land of Isreal. Grand Central Station now serves as the main junction to the Heartland Tram and allows the ability to travel all over Isreal with realitive ease.

With the hopes of reaching new players to take a pilgrimage to these lands a Star Gate was added to connect Isreal to all of lands connected to the Imperial Union of Nordheim.

Currently Isreal is connecting the Imperial Union of Nordheim to the Concord Rail.
