It was a small settlement. sep98 had a plan to build the Palm Jumeirah which is located in the Persian Gulf. It was Dubai's first official landmark. He immediately began the construction. When the construction was completed, the Palm was very recognizable on the EMC Dynmap. Many players paid a visit to his masterpiece. Along with the Palm, sep98 also built the Burj Khalifa (tallest structure in the world). To justify its height, the Burj Khalifa is built up to the Minecraft height limit. During the same period, ArchivalJordy built the Burj Al Arab (most luxurious 7-star hotel) but did not finish construction. | ||

* Palm Jumeirah is not actually an "island" on EarthMC, but a floating pier. The sand is placed upon a foundation of cobblestone, floating at sea level. | |||
* Due to the lack of diverse resources in the massive Middle Eastern desert, sep98 had to make far travels and trades to gain sufficient material (eg. wood, dirt, seeds and food) for building and survival. | |||
* Sep98 built the Burj Khalifa using a real life scale model as reference, which he got from his real world visit to Dubai and the Burj Khalifa in 2018. | |||
* For construction of the Palm, sep98 drew a template using Microsoft Paint to assure correct and symmetrical shape. | |||
* Sep98 had contact with another player who wanted to build Palm Jebel Ali, the project was cancelled. | |||
* Some players made complaints that Palm Jumeirah broke the server's rules stating it is illegal to build artificial land on sea. Moderators disagreed with these complaints, stating the Palm is based on a real world landmark. | |||
