## History

When the Mac Guys were brought to MAC C through The Falkirk Portal, they found a convenient forest containing remains of an earlier civilisation. They decided to deforest this from the inside, constructing a fence around it as they went. Once the forest was surrounded the remaining south and east parts were completely cleared to construct the Mac Guy's Houses, leaving an original area of forest in the north. At the same time they deforested more woodland outside this fence to construct another one of identical design, this one surrounding the Mac Earldoms. This larger fence was later abandoned due to the fall of the earldoms. When the PC Guys invaded MAC C in Invasion of the PC Guys, they took the empire and therefore inherited the fence around it. Despite having superiour technology to the Mac Guys, decided not to upgrade the fence as they saw nothing else of note on MAC C and realised they only needed to guard against intruders through the Falkirk Portal, which they set up a control system for using PCs.

## Construction

The Border Fences are made of wood. The fence itself is a vertical line of logs with a sharp point at the top to pierce anyone trying to cross it. This means it is impossible to cross the fence. The fence is dotted with simple wooden towers roughly once every 20 metres. The towers are made from 4 spruce tree trunks with additional logs to create floors and finally planks to provide protection. The towers are just over 10 metres tall. Ladders are permanently mounted behind the towers to provide access between the open basement, the two roofed floors and the battlements of each tower. There are elevated walkways situated behind each stretch of fence which are also accessed by the ladders. The towers make it impossible to go from one walkway to the other. This means that if one tower is besieged, it does no mean the entire border fence is taken and is therefore a defensive advantage.

## Inside the Border Fences

*Main article: The PC Guy Empire*

Encircled by both fences is The PC Guy Empire, a sophisticated empire run by the PC Guys. It originally contained The Mac Guy Empire.

## The Inner Border Fence

This fence contains and protects The PC Guy Empire. It is very well maintained and heavily guarded by Knight PC Guys. There is only one way to go through the fence for both Mac and PC Guys, this being the hole blasted during TQTDTME. However on the other side of this hole is The Troll and The Bridge of Death as well as The Gorge of Eternal Peril.

## Between the Border Fences

*Main article: Mac Earldoms*

 Various locations are found here including abandoned Mac Guy civilisations, abandoned ruins of unknown lifeforms wiped out in The Mass Extinction Event, ruined castles, the second PC Guy's Prison Castle, the backup hall used by PC Guys, The Falkirk Portal, The Robbie Rotten Fortress and the tunnels leading underground. It is mostly abandoned because the Mac Guys left many years ago in favour of their Inner Fence as the complex reproductive nature of Mac Guys made Earldoms unsustainable.

The area between the fences is for the most part grassland, which even while the Earldoms existed was very sparsely populated, and which is now occupied by a very few inhabitants, like The Globglogabgalab.

## The Outer Border Fence

This is abandoned and is peppered with many holes, it is rotting away and slowly falling down as it has no current use. It is not guarded at all and it is easy to find a hole through this fence or simply use an axe or hammer to destroy the weakened, waterlogged wood.

## Outside the Border Fences

Outside of the Outer Border Fence is the rest of MAC C, only featuring in a few select adventures such as Seymour's Adventures or The Adventure to Destroy The Lion's Heart Stone. There are no known permanent residences outside of the area covered by the Outer Border Fence except for the PC Guy outpost of Southport, and no known castles or ruins, except for the Castle of the Lion's Heart Stone on Hashtag Island. It was the location of the final battle in The Adventure to Anhialate the PC and Linux Guy Empires for Good. It is unknown what is here beyond the general biomes.

## Possible replacement

The PC Guys plan to demolish the wooden border fence and replace it with a 10 meter tall stone wall with large towers. This will greatly anger The Troll as the PC Guys could put guarded entrances away from the Bridge of Death.
