Outer World

The Outer World in the context of MonsoonJR's Minecraft Server and the Mappercraft Minecraft server refers to the vanilla overworld generation of chunks found outside of a given map's intended limits. This term is most often applied in the context of the Earth World series of worlds; however, the Outer World can also be seen and documented in other worlds, too, including Distorted Asia, the Distorted Europe series, Doom's World, Solace World 1, and perhaps more. Players often used the Outer World to gather resources they otherwise would not have been able to get in the main map of the respective world — such as totems of undying — and to create hidden secret bases.

Earth World
The first appearance of the Outer World phenomena was in the first Earth World. During this time it was often referred to as New Panegia due to the shared vanilla terrain generation of both Panegia World and the Outer World. The first explicit mention and description of the Outer World by this name can be found on the Earth World wiki page on June 28th, 2015, although documentations of its existence were around beforehand, although lackluster; the wiki page in question says, "Lolistan exits the World Map via the North Pole and enters New Panegia, the regular minecraft world outside of the world." People, including FedexMC, the previously mentioned Lolistan, and TL managed to travel and briefly explore the Outer World, with TL even making a makeshift outpost in Bethan, the dubbed 'continent' found in the Outer World south of Antarctica.

Distorted Asia
After the first Earth World map came Distorted Asia World, the second world on MonsoonJR's Minecraft Server to contain the Outer World in some form. On July 15th, 2015 FedexMC founded the Harinian Empire south of the bedrock wall that tried to block off players from the region, on an island or large landmass of some sort. Not much else happened or was documented in the Outer World asides from this during Distorted Asia world.

Distorted Europe
Along with the Earth World series and Distorted Asia world, Distorted Europe had an Outer World region of its own. What was interesting about Distorted Europe in particular, though, was that all chunks spanning outside of the map's intended boundaries generated in a Large Worlds preset, rather than the default preset that you would normally see in a Minecraft world. This meant for larger islands, continents, oceans, biomes, and landmasses in general.

In the first iteration of Distorted Europe people mainly used the Outer World to raid villages and other vanilla generated structures to gather loot relatively quickly. During this time, three main settlements or bases popped up: China, a former independent nation turned vassal of the Empire of Tricia located northwest of the main map itself; the Republic of Finnia, VikkezBoy's settlement and nation in a jungle biome far to the south; and a skeleton XP grinder base used by Mich, Cambrian_, and Wolfkall found under an island north of Europe.

In the second iteration of Distorted Europe, Distorted Europe Revived, there occurred many developments in the Outer World during the world's span. Firstly, people, including Cambrian_, Mich, and others began exploring and finding Woodland Mansions in order to gather totems of undying. Secondly, Mich made two secret bases in the Outer World, in which the first he lost and could not find again. Thirdly and finally, a player named AntiMof, who is nowadays presumed to be an alt of LemonsDesired or TheSummerDragon, began an ARG-esque campaign exploring the Outer World and in the in-game chat, guiding people who were curious, which at least included agnius06 and Mich. AntiMof also apparently had a large stash of gunpowder and other resources in the Outer World region, although there exists no sure confirmation or proof of its existence at the moment.
