Mojank is a town on RetroMC that is owned by

History
Founding
In February 2020, Mojang mayor
NotcX was expanding the boundaries of his town at a rapid rate while town assistant
Meowser_ aggressively recruited new players.
Moving into March of 2020,
NotcX realized that the town size had ballooned enough to warrant Mojang finally becoming a nation comprised of multiple towns. The first new town to be started would be Mojank, the land of opportunity.
Meowser_ was originally intended to be mayor of Mojank, but he instead opted to recommend young upstart Beebot21 for the role so he could maintain his position as assistant to both towns.
Early History
After it's humble start, Mojank began to pick up more and more new players as the hype and buzz of a new town began to grow. Beebot21 promoted his first assistant, Ballistic_Blitz, and the town's first iconic builds began to take shape, including Roses Nightclub, player markets, and McDonald's.
Ballistic_Blitz would build his house titled 'The Pond' around this time, which would later be declared the first Mojank historical landmark. Soon after this, Beebot21 and Meowser_ stopped playing RetroMC for about a year, and the town slipped into inactivity. Ballistic_Blitz would never be seen again, leaving multiple unfinished projects behind.
Revival
Around November 2021,
Meowser_ returned to the server, and decided that it was time for Mojank to finally live up to its potential. Many changes were made to the town, starting with the construction of the Motel Carolina as well as a new town hall. Rapid recruitment of new players began, including some notable long-term members such as
The_AnarKist, and
xbozo, who would form the first Mojank districts, 'Pearl Springs' and 'Snowjank' respectively.
The town would fluctuate in activity but continue growing for over a year, with about 30% of what is seen in Mojank today being built in this period. In Mid-Late July of 2022, many new members who would significantly influence Mojank history joined for the first time, including but not limited to
TaylorBoss302 and
Nerdo12. The rapid expansion of town and soon-to-be historical developments would usher in a new era of Mojank.
San Francisco Era
Competition with Isometrycality
In the early parts of summer in 2022, Mojank was the primary active town for new players on RetroMC, but it wasn't without it's competition. Because of the old towny plugin that only allowed players to be in one town, player's town choice tended to stick with them for a long time.
Because of this, Mojank and other towns at the time had to (politely) fight for new wanderers straight out of spawn island. Towards the end of July 2022,
Meowser_ temporarily put a hold on recruiting new members so that other towns, specifically Isometrycality (owned by
IronMonkAwesomO at the time) would have a chance to invite new members and grow.
Iso invited many new members, chief among them being
Nerdo12 and
DaniboyS. Dani began to be very hostile towards Mojank and directly try to steal members from the town. Despite Dani being banned days later, the toxicity that he brought to competition on the server reverberated for the next several months and started a rivalry between the two towns.
Massive Town Growth
The weeks between late July and early August 2022 saw the most explosive growth that Mojank has ever seen. TaylorBoss302, Loganator1121, N1ght, Kolos69, KazzakABC123 and audiosupernova were added and contributed many of the town's most iconic builds, along with upwards of 20 other players who made their own contributions. TaylorBoss302 and her friends founded the district of 'San Francisco', which to that point had the most impressive builds in the nation.
