Land of the Deepslate Tree.
Spruce Swamp is a settlement on the edge of a swampy landscape. Its industry is paper, sugar cane, potatos and bone meal and has plans to expand Eastwards, creating more residential areas and recruiting residents.
History
Foundation Era [27th February - 14th March]
Constructed between the 27th February and 1st March, Spruce Swamp was built around a tree that reached deepslate thus being given the title 'Land of the Deepslate Tree'. When founded with 7 chunks, Rocktapper1 gave tours of his settlement to Nunavik Residents and on 3rd March, a redstone sugar cane machine was constructed to provide supplies to the shop.
Throughout early March, the Spruce Swamp Archive, Baked Potato Farm, Redstone River and residential areas were constructed.
Regeneration Era [15th March - 3rd April]
From 15th to 19th March, some buildings were demolished; the sugar cane machine and public dog farm were regenerated into new spaces. The home spawn as improved with more vegetation and the town's chunks expanded from 14 to 21. As a result of Fuze169 and Rocktapper1 helping MasterEWild with redstone, both players constructed a underground metro connecting the town to Fort Aurelian.
On Wednesday 19th, Fuze169 built a bone meal farm in their plot and was pushed to the edge of the town to be killed. Shortly after, Rocktapper1 gave a visitor a tour of the town and when they entered the metro a hunter killed them both. These are the first 3 deaths known in Spruce Swamp's history.
Recruiting Era [4th April - Present]
Rocktapper1 recruited 1 resident who built a shop selling diamonds, diamond ore and other items.
