Land of Outback (commonly known as Outback) is a sovereign monarchy located in the red deserts of Western Australia on the EarthMC geopolitical Minecraft server. Known for its distinctive western and steampunk architecture, desert-themed identity, and strong commitment to unity and harmony with nature, the nation stands as a spiritual and cultural hub of the western frontier.

The capital city, Laverton, acts as the center of governance, trade, and community life. Outback is part of the Pilbaran Empire and has strong diplomatic ties with Pilbara and Timor. Its main rival is the nation of Australia.

History

Early Foundations

The Vision Begins

The Land of Outback was founded on January 25, 2024, by bartek151 along with two other players who sought to create a nation not grounded in conquest, but in balance and harmony with the environment. The original town — simply named Outback — arose in the rugged deserts of Western Australia.

Transition to Laverton

As time passed and the two original founders departed EarthMC, bartek151 assumed sole leadership. The capital evolved and was renamed Laverton, reflecting a new phase in the nation's development.

Rise of a Desert Monarchy

Absorption of Wetar

On July 7, 2025, the former nation of Wetar was absorbed and rebranded as Outback, further solidifying its identity and territorial presence. This marked the beginning of a new era of growth and cohesion for the desert monarchy.

Alliance and Survival

With support from DesiredCheese92, the nation stabilized under a philosophy of survival, neutrality, and a strong sense of unity with nature — a counterpoint to more expansionist or war-driven nations.

Unfinished Masterpiece

The Land of Outback once dreamed of building a grand hippodrome, a centerpiece for community and sport. The design was complete, and the desert land had been cleared in preparation. But just before construction began, the horse league quietly faded away. With no races to host, the project was peacefully abandoned — a relic of what could have been.

Government

Outback is a monarchy led by King bartek151. The nation is structured around a small but stable leadership group. The monarchy maintains central control, with DesiredCheese92 serving as a key official managing affairs in the capital.
