samcarf with assistance from
ZEROCONDA. It gained full independance in October 2024.
Etymology and Flags

Buildings
The Zone's First Skyscraper
The Zone's First Skyscraper, built when the city still was a district in Nebuley, was the largest project
samcarf undertook. With the help of
ZEROCONDA and
ooosaft and many others[who?]. It is mainly constructed with wool, stone and glass, and was originally designed with abstract white patterns on the front. Its construction necessitated around 40 stacks of stone, 25 stacks of wool, glass, stone slabs and wooden planks among many other building materials.

History
Foundation
The Zone was founded in August 2023 by
samcarf, with support from
ZEROCONDA.
samcarf wanted to create a district in which the only allowed buildings blocks would be sandstone, stone, bricks and wood. This idea was quickly scrapped and the district was now dedicated to futuristic buildings. At the beginning, The Zone consisted only of a bridge and a small "wishing well" with a rules board outlining strict architectural standards. Despite its promising start, The Zone was abandoned shortly after its founding and remained unused until June 2024.
Revival and Expansion
The Zone's First Skyscraper
In June 2024,
samcarf returned to The Zone, initiating its transformation into an active part of Nebuley. The first major construction was the Zone's First Skyscraper, and the wishing well was dismantled. The construction of the first skyscraper necessitated a very important effort, as a large area had to be dug out to make place for the skyscraper, since the original measurements made by
samcarf in creative mode in 1.21 did not accound for the limited block height of only 128 blocks. This effort was facilitated by the help of many players, most notably
Gazuzz,
ooosaft,
Ingrate and
ZEROCONDA. It was among the largest projects ever built in Nebuley. A border dispute near The Zone emerged in late June between Nebuley and Utiopia, a new town founded by
Atalaydavud, and other incidents followed soon, detailed in this page.
ooosaft participating in the digging effort.Highway to RainyCity
After the founding of RainyCity, a new town neighboring The Zone, a border treaty was signed and the first completed Nebuleyian highway, the RainyCity-Nebuley highway, was built and linked both towns through The Zone. Soon after, while Template:User-samcarf was expanding roads, the original bridge linking The Zone to Nebuley was removed, with the end goal of replacing it with a modern subway station that will be more aesthetically pleasing and could serve as a crossing point between Beetopia, Nebuley and RainyCity.
Independence from Nebuley
On October 27, 2024,
samcarf gained The Zone's independence from Nebuley through negotiations with
Ingrate, its owner and founder.
