Rather, it was called "QuinnLand", and it was created by [[meatball3210]] (also known as Quinn) on November 9, 2019. Upon establishment, the town immediately joined [https://earthmc.fandom.com/wiki/Social_Democracy_of_India#Golden_Age_of_India golden-age India], becoming the ninth town to do so. It was by no means a large town, as digital logs indicate that it spanned 20 chunks at most. The highest known record of QuinnLand's population was up to 14 residents, most of whom were inactive. | ||

Throughout its existence, QuinnLand was by far one of the most underdeveloped sites in all of India. For months, there were no ice boat routes that connected it to the rest of the world, all of the town's valuables were locked away in an armory that was only accessible to town elites, building materials and food were scarce, and there were only a few basic structures that didn't fit properly into the chunk grid. The largest building at the time was a pig spawner farm built in the center of the town, and the entire property was surrounded in a great wooden wall that anyone could easily penetrate. This wall cut through the town center and housed a clearing for a small residential subdivision with a mine entrance. | Throughout its existence, QuinnLand was by far one of the most underdeveloped sites in all of India.

For this reason, most of the town refused to go online, ending QuinnLand's first chance of becoming a fruitful city. Occasionally, residents would log in to build themselves a house, but the population continued to stagnate over a couple of months. At this point, both the original mayor of QuinnLand and almost every resident had been offline for more than seven weeks, causing an instantaneous drop in population. The title of mayor was automatically handed to the last person in the town who was active: Mapscientist. | For this reason, most of the town refused to go online, ending QuinnLand's first chance of becoming a fruitful city.

Mapscientist was a new player who had joined EarthMC on September 11, 2019. He had very little experience or interest in the towny server at the time, as he primarily spent this period on [[Factions|EarthMC Factions]]. Precisely two months after joining for the first time, Map was invited to the town of QuinnLand, and joined out of curiosity around two days after the town was created. He would soon begin to excavate tunnels deep underground to prepare for ice network construction, and build himself a house while QuinnLand was slowly perishing. However, Map would be almost completely inactive on towny during the month of December. Upon joining the Indian Discord server, a vote was passed on New Year's Day to make him QuinnLand's senator. On the 11th of January, 2020, he would be surprised to find that he was now the official mayor of QuinnLand, and thus held full representation of the town in parliament. | Mapscientist was a new player who had joined EarthMC on September 11, 2019.
