Dirt Ocean
The Dirt Ocean initiative was started by
jcheese7,
Croakore, and
SadieSadie; it was initially used to make space for the construction of Beetopia University, but the project has since expanded and aims to cover as much ocean as possible with dirt.
The initial call to action occured on 9th January 2024, and the location of the initial project is an extension of Beetopia.
Slave labor usage
The project was able to take off quickly due to it's use of slave labour, with the assistance of
Ade1ie (who acted as the driver/foreman over the workers) and
1blckhrt, alongside other members, it was ensured that dirt placement was efficient with minimal breaks.
Some players attempted to protest the use of slave labour (some of them forming a protest group known as "TeamCrafters"), but any such attempts to protest were ultimately unsuccessful.
The slave labour was approved by Our Dear Leader
JohnyMuffin, Leader of the UIP
Orknarok_666, Leader of FlatLand
thecow275, UIP Enjoyer
Noggisoggi and RetroMC Developer
notsui.
They visited the dirt fields and offered "encouragement" to the slave workers to continue working hard for the glory of Beetopia and the UIP.
Dear Leader
JohnyMuffin appeared and blessed the slave workers with dirt from the heavens.
Noggisoggi joined in and dropped iron blocks to the masses below.

Memorial to Labourers
In recognition of their labour, all workers were forced recommended to place a sign with their name on it upon the newly created memorial – it stands as a testament of the power of Beetopia, and the UIP.

12/01/2024: A union between FlatLand was currently being negotiated. Due to their close proximity, Supreme Leader James Cheese the 7th and FlatLand Leader thecow275 feels that this union would be mutually beneficial and ensure the slave labour can continue indefinitely.
14/01/2024: Beetopia and FlatLand were now connected in union via the Dirt Ocean. May this union between two great nations be fruitful.
