Redirect's Minecraft Server

Redirect's Minecraft Server was one of, if not, the first Minecraft servers for mappers and members of  [REDACTED ]. It is widely regarded as the predecessor to MonsoonJR's Minecraft Server; however, it is generally not considered apart of the series of servers that is often referred to as Mappercraft. The server was hosted by Redirect and lasted six worlds. If one were to consider Redirect's the first Mappercraft server, instead of Monsoon's, it would move the birthday of Mappercraft from March 13th 2015 to "Late October" (presumably sometime between the 15th and the 31st) 2014, and increase the age of the server by approximately 6 months.

Known Types of Governments

 * Empires- Vorbradium (Golden and Batran's faction) is the first and only faction to use this system of Government, despite being a Diarchy. They are similar to a kingdom, but they are expansionist and somewhat aggressive to their neighbors. They are considered to be the most powerful government, or at least the most authority. They tend to make unprovoked attacks on their neighbors and are usually one of the biggest factions. The title of empire is won IF YOU HAVE 1000 BLOCKS of land..
 * Trading- *_This nation has been removed_*
 * Horde: They are an aggressive political system. There are two types of Hordes, one is the homeless horde, who is constantly at war with EVERYONE in the game, and second is the sedentaric horde, who has a home, but they are not at war with everyone,they can declare war when they want to.
 * Nomad: These nations are nations with no home's,they tend to move around and and have a temporary home's.If they want to settle in someone's land,they must win a war against the specific nation.
 * Republic- These are completely useless. Unless you have more than 4-5 players in your faction, you can elect leaders. But it's better to rule by force, since factions tend to be all about war, war, war.
 * Kingdom- They are passive versions of the Empire system. They are relatively peaceful and, like Nomads, they attack their adversaries.
 * Mercenary- These nations are mainly nomadic but they can be paid to help in wars. If cannot be paid in full, you could provide them land in the conquered faction.
 * City-State- Basically a city as an independent faction.

Rules

 * You can't declare war only if there are at least two of the people who are part of a specific nation are online, not even the homeless horde's can't attack idle nations(the nation who no one or one is online)
 * Attacking or stealing (no matter the government type) is an instant declaration to war.
 * Once the server starts, there is a truce period of two hours.
 * You can grief only an amount of 30 blocks (Horde's or nomads can grief 50).
 * Don't swear like a retard.
 * You can join only if you are or above 12 years old.
 * Please,be rational ... and don't be a mindless retard.
 * If you have a problem,please consult the admins ...
 * Have fun or die! Muahahahaahha

Most of the world is grassland with few rivers.


 * Republic of Yamnu- One person 'kingdom' ruled by Yigit (or lisastr), their architectural style is poor, but they makes up for it in building up with whatever they can.

(Unknown to Unknown) (To Unknown)
 * Vorbradium Empire- Is the first faction to introduce the Empire system in the server. It is ruled by Batran and Golden.

They also introduced maps to the game, which is adopted by future people to come. They also call themselves Roman (Unknown to End) (To West and East Vorbradium)
 * Nazi Horde- Ruled by LeNazi?, Redirect's friend. They are considered the most advanced faction, despite being a Horde. They occasionally move, but they leave behind sophisticated buildings and architecture. If one finds one of their old bases, they would have find massive amounts of treasure that this faction collected overtime. They were almost destroyed when Vorbradium, Remnants of Yamnu, and Mindo-Zukas Horde teamed up against them. (Unknown to End)
 * Mindo-Zukas Horde- They are a relatively new faction compared to other members in the game. They are aggressive, but then was annexed and "civilized" by the Vorbradium Empire towards the end of the First World. (Unknown to Unknown) (To Unknown)

Second Age (Mesa World)

 * West Vorbradium- Solely Ruled by Batran, the Eastern Vorbradium found itself under rule by Celethor. West Vorbradium exprience dominated the trade system and created long roads traveling across islands and continents. Despite being small, they developed their own architecture. It is most similar to Minimalistic Houses and strictly externally cobblestoned. They tend to live on mountainsides and islands. They also built a international Central Trading Hub and Council building for the factions. (Unknown to End) (Became Vordalkien Junior/Inferior)
 * East Vorbradium- Ruled solely by Golden, the Eastern Vorbradium found itself under rule by Celethor. They helped established trade routes and planned to built outposts before the flood receded.

 * Vordalkien Senior: Ruled by Golden, they established settlements and develops a less realistic architecture, that seems more like fantasy. They are the first Faction to have a navy. They became an independent Trading Nation, seeing trading nations are more protected than any other. Vordalkien Senior is good at making traps, sometimes fooling other players. Also, it was Golden that created the Third World Map. Most of Vordalkien's lands are Spruce forests and plains. Many fortresses dot the landscape, for protection against Northern Tribes, and Sea invasions. Their capital on the ocean side, Laidir, has a fortress, a city wall, the map, future embassies, and Golden's personal house on top of a very steep mountain, known as Mt. Fermoy. Vordalkien Senior is allied with Vordalkien Junior (of course) and Celethor.
 * Vordalkien Junior: managed by Batran, they are whats left of West Vorbradium, and chosen to be under a Personal Union with Vordalkien Senior. Their ethnicity is dominated by the Brabrantini peoples. They retains some of their Architecture but chosen to be "Barbarianized" similar to Western Rome. For example, Instead of tall complex walls, they became Large Barricades with an occasional outpost or Tower to waste less materials and quick building efficiency. They also handle the World Wonders and introduced Banners into the system. They also planned to hold Faction Council Meetings and create businesses.
 * Celethor: Ruled by Redirect, owner of the server. They are also known as the first ever civilization, having a legacy from the first World unitl the present, their land stretches from the Main bay to deep into the countryside, most of their land is plains, bits of mountains and Black forests.

Golden lives on a floating island on the edge of the country. Valgond owns any land that is under or near an Irish flag. You can see Valgond also claims something by Glowstone on the ground.
