What is Amzos
It's a region created around 2013 to bring Serenada's builds together into one region. Cities, ships, airships, mechs, anything really. There's a trans-regional highway that connects most builds.
Why is the region so big?
In 2013 there was so much empty space on the map that 6x2km region wasn't an issue.
What's the story on having creative mode?
Rbos saw it painful to watch Sern work so he went ahead and granted creative mode. Certainly has moved things along. If a build is in Amzos, it's probably creative. Any Sern build outside of Amzos is 100% survival.
Name history
The region was originally founded under the name 'Waconia' because 'Minnesota is pretty cool'. In 2022, the name was changed to 'Amzos' to better tie history of the nation of 'Amzos' which was created in the nation simulation game 'Nationstates' back in 2008. Interested?

Sern Symbols
You'll see these red fox symbols all over Amzos. They're supposed to let you know that yes, Sern is the builder.
Ironside
The city of Ironside covers about 2km² of area and is build primarily of cobblestone. Looks like a gray mass on maps.
Players with builds in Ironside
Ironside isn't really a public city, but if you really want to make a building here, drop Sern a message.

What are semi-autonomous sectors?

History
Ironside was founded in 2010 close to 4th spawn. A couple years later, it was copy/pasted in its current location and merged with a copy/pasted portion of the island world, which explains the shoreline in parts of the city. Around that time, Serenada was granted creative mode and has continued building all these years. Work is never done!
