Provisional False Borders

Fasterland is a faction named after it’s founder Fasterpenny9018. It was originally a settlement on the season one server. After the new server was created, Fasterpenny9018 created Fasterland anew in a plains biome. Other players soon became members of the faction. Fasterpenny9018 was banned soon, however, and a player, who was a member of the faction, Bambuino was named the new ruler of Fasterland.

## History

### Season One

Fasterland was originally a settlement created during the end of the season one server. Fasterpenny9018 originally planned to move to his settlement and let admins teleport his Estate there which was so disliked by players that he wanted the moderator Philpilp to pay him multiple diamond blocks, that Philpilp would need to collect through mining, in exchange for letting the administrators move the Estate to Fasterland. This, however, never became a reality as the server was closed before the trade could happen.

### Creation on Season Two

After joining the new server, Penny planned to create a great nation. He begun by claiming a plains biome and constructing multiple cubic houses and a farm. He recruited the player Bambuino to become a member of his faction. He declared Fasterland to be a "doctorship".

Some players jokingly compared the houses to a prison or the Soviet Union. Penny explained the resemblance was deliberate as his faction was a "doctorship" similar to a dictatorship.

He later recruited the player AlexTheBoi and Lyophis into his domain.

### Construction of Farms

After constructing the main settlement Fasterpenny9018 begun working on automatic farms for his nation. The first one was a gunpowder farm utilising creepers. It is unknown how much gunpowder the farm produced. Some have rumoured that it only produced a minuscule amount.

A general mob grinder was constructed above the gunpowder farm.

A Villager Breeder was also constructed. The breeder was destroyed by a griefer and was repaired by Bambuino.

Fasterpenny9018 Constructed a gold farm using nether portals. It was criticized by other players for being a possible source of lag. The gold farm was damaged by the same griefer that destroyed the villager breeder. Bambuino, who had surveyed the damage, ruled the original gold farm a "lost cause" due to not knowing the design that Fasterpenny9018 used when first building the farm. Bambuino has plans to destroy the old gold farm and construct an iron farm in its place.

Fasterpenny9018 also created another gold farm, using a more traditional and well-known design. During a damage assessment, Bambuino was able to fix the gold farm, making it a crucial asset to the Kingdom of Bamaland.

### Handing Over of Fasterland

The founder and leader of Fasterland, Fasterpenny9018 was banished from the server for four days after killing other players and using x-rays. He didn’t immediately return after his ban sentence was over. During his vacancy control of the faction was handed over to Bambuino who abolished the "doctatorship" and crowned himself King of Fasterland and AlexTheBoi Prince. He created large walls of cobblestone and cherry blossom wood that would surround the settlement of Pennyappolis.

## Geography

After creating Fasterland on the new SniffSMP, Fasterpenny9018 claimed the entire plains biome, in which he had settled as the territory of Fasterland. The first settlement in the biome was later named Pennyappolis by him and elevated to the status of capital city. It lies northeast of the server’s spawn and east of the faction of Snagaland. The settlement is surrounded by many cherry blossom trees.

### Old Server

The old Fasterland was also located in a plains biome. This biome was situated adjacent to multiple large hills. It also had an entrance in the nether.

## Trivia

It is unclear if "doctatorship" was a spelling mistake or not. The first time Fasterpenny9018 mentioned the name on the Sniffcord, players ignored it. The second time it was pointed out and Fasterpenny stated it was deliberate. However it may have been a spelling mistake that was accidentally repeated two times considering the letter "o" is positioned next to the letter "i" on the QWERTY keyboard.
