History
April 19th, 2022 - June 6th, 2022
Terra Aurora Announced
On April 12th, 2022, the MOTD on the EarthMC Minecraft Server was changed to a set of coordinates encoded into base 64. Going to those coordinates, players would find a message quoting a YouTube comment made by Fix on the EarthMC: Terra Nova update teaser video. This would imply to players a server reset.
Rumors and theories would spread quickly from players and even Fix himself. On April 19th, 2022, Fix announced on the EarthMC Discord Server the upcoming release of Terra Aurora. That same day, TurquoiseNomad created the Germany Discord server with a large community of players to plan the nation of Germany for Terra Aurora.
Creation of Germany
Under 2 hours into the opening of Terra Aurora, Fruitloopins created the town of Berlin. With the assistance of around a dozen players mining gold, Fruitloopins created the nation of Germany on May 2nd, 2022, at 5:40:22 UTC or only about 13 hours past the opening of Terra Aurora. Germany was the 2nd nation created in Europe and 3rd on Terra Aurora.
Creation of France
TurquoiseNomad created the town of Paris after Fruitloopins began funding a couple of capitals across Europe. Players AD31, Icrelei, Tamar__, and MaddieMao would come to assist in mining gold to create the nation of France on May 3rd, 2022 by TurquoiseNomad.
Hours in the Mines
After dozens of hours mining, Fruitloopins and Basically_Andrew finished claiming Berlin to the maximum 940 town blocks. On May 27th, 2022, the capital of Germany, Berlin, was the first max claimed town on Terra Aurora. Below is a Franco-Germany Discord announcement of Berlin reaching max claims and an animation of Berlin claiming generated EMC Dynmap#4709.
