Tsar_Boris.
Lockedchestia (abbreviated as LC), or officially known as Closest-Farlands LC Kingdom and erroneously nicknamed the Farlands, is a nation at the world border created by Tsar_Boris. Its capital and largest city is known as Kraigrad, formerly known as Lockedchestiagrad, with other major cities and suburbs being Moryegrad and Derevograd. The kingdom has an unusual egocentric and isolationist view of Betaonline. King Boris does not care about events unfolding on the rest of the server - only if it negatively affects his hermit kingdom.
Lockedchestia has a long and intricate history on both Betaonline and other servers. The city was first established on Betaonline in March 2022 at the world border, being the town furthest away from Spawn. Although being griefed on some occasions by the Longswordsmen, the town would sit quietly for itself for most of its early history. The town was entirely built by Tsar_Boris, and the settlement had no permanent population other than him.
During EvilPoopMan's Reign in December 2022, Kraigrad was taken over by EvilPoopMan and his followers. The city was griefed and pillaged of resources, with Pooplandia being built in its ruins. After the EvilPoopMan fled the server and order was re-established, Pooplandia was demolished and large parts of the griefs committed were repaired by 44cckw. The damage had already been done, however, as many valuables and resources had been stolen. Boris was not compensated for the attack, and the expansion of Lockedchestia suffered as a result. Progress halted completely, and the kingdom went into a period of complete isolation. Boris attempted to start other projects on the server such as Villa del Rey with little success, and instead opted to leave Betaonline for good on 18 February 2024.
Etymology[edit]
History[edit]
Origins[edit]
Tsar_Boris, the founder of Farlands joined the server for the first time on 23 March 2022. He would begin to walk westward on 30 March 2022, thousands of blocks into the wilderness. Norbert011 warned 44cckw and told him that he would walk thousands of blocks, increasing the world's size drastically. This event would lead the server to implement the world border at 20k blocks. Boris reached the world border the same day, and the journey took him approximately two hours. He would begin to build the settlement Lockedchestiagrad in the following days. Lockedchestiagrad is the name used by Boris for his previous base on the server MCPlayground, which he used to play on. However, the unofficial name Farlands became more widespread, due to it being easier to write. Boris would eventually adopt this name for the entire country but kept Lockedchestiagrad as the name of the city.
Lockedchestia during the First Age
April Expansion[edit]
Lockedchestiagrad would expand rapidly in the following weeks. Boris would begin to create maps of his settlement using Dynmap, being one of the first players to do so. The first house in the Farlands was Tsar_Boris' house, with a massive sugarcane farm being erected on a nearby island. This sugarcane farm is the server's biggest known sugarcane farm. A warp was added on 31 March 2022 by 44cckw, making travel to the settlement easier.
Wodanaz333 would at an unknown point in time create an obsidian swastika outside of the Farlands. This was first discovered by Boris on 9 April 2022. Boris first assumed the swastika to be made by Norbert, but this accusation was later denied by 44cckw after checking logs. The swastika would remain in place for some time but was at some point destroyed.
Longswordmen Incidents[edit]
Beginning in April 2022, an unknown group of players known as the Longswordsmen would create a massive swastika out of sandstone in the waters outside of Lockedchestia. While Boris was unhappy with the swastika, he stated that he could re-utilize the swastika for something else. This swastika would later be made into the Lockedchestian arena, officially referred to as the Colliseum[sic]. Boris later discovered a crater near Devrograd on 20 May 2022, which later turned out to be where the Longswordmen got the resources for the swastika.
A second Longswordmen-related grief was discovered by the server population on 3 December 2022, during the PoopMan Invasion. Multiple small swastikas made out of cobbles were constructed all over the town. Again, the motives behind the attack and the perpetrators remain a mystery.

The Reign and Pooplandia[edit]
On 3 December 2022, the mysterious figure EvilPoopMan would join Betaonline. He would subsequently teleport all online players to the Farlands, where he forced players into slavery. Players such as 44cckw, raddicted,TriKhazan and new players arriving from Betacraft were forced to mine poop (dirt) in the Lockedchestiagrad mines. EvilPoopMan planned to build a massive throne and take over the Farlands, turning it into Pooplandia. While constructing the town, EvilPoopMan was assassinated by CalmCreeper360 and fled the construction site. This sparked the underground anti-poopist resistance against EvilPoopMan's tyranny and inspired other slaves to resist his rule. This back-and-forth confrontation would ultimately end with the slave revolt, and EvilPoopMan fleeing the server.
The Farlands took heavy damage during its occupation, and 44cckw repaired most of it after the conclusion of the reign. Tsar_Boris was not online during the Reign, but when he logged on later in December and learned about the attack, he suffered from trauma. This led to the Farlands being closed to visitors, essentially isolating itself from the rest of the server.
Post invasion[edit]
Weeks and months passed, and Tsar_Boris couldn't recover from the damage, and for that, he needed resources that he didn't have. Much of his diamonds, gold, iron, redstone, even coal! was robbed. It's unknown if it was EvilPoopMan who took it or 44cckw just didn't give it back, but still, because of it, Tsar_Boris was unable to even log back for a long period.

* 17 February : Tsar_Boris joined back to BetaOnline, after months of inactivity.

At the same time, Tsar_Boris lost his /home during the raiding, and so never came back to BetaOnline.
Closest-Farlands LC Kingdom cities[edit]
Tsar_Boris's kingdom has multiple cities with a low or even zero population because of the isolationist policy of the Farlands.
| Cities | Population | Buildings |
|---|---|---|
| Lockedchestiagrad | 2 | 8 |
| Moryegrad | 1 | 1 |
| Derevograd | 1 | 1 |
| Sublockedchestia | 0 | 0 |
| Zhelezograd | 0 | 0 |
| Starograd | TBA | TBA |
Lockedchestiagrad (Kraigrad)[edit]
The biggest city and the most populated in the whole kingdom, with 2 residents:
- Tsar_Boris
- Unknown player
The city contains 8 free-rent houses with a furnace, a crafting table, a double chest and a bed. House number one is rented by the 'Unknown player', whose identity is a mystery. There are also a mine, a port and a railway station. The main products of the city are sugar cane (from the Northern Brotherhood Island Sugar Cane Farm), wheat and minerals. As tourist attractions, there are:
Moryegrad[edit]
The second city of the kingdom was built to allow easier travel and navigation towards the south. The only building that Moryegrad have is a port. Inside the building are some chests, 2 crafting tables and a furnace. It also has a sign saying "ATTENTION! Craft another boat if your has broken!"
Moryegrad currently has no residents and zero tourist attractions.
"Morye-" comes from "Sea" in Russian, referring to its former primal usage.
Derevograd[edit]
The third city was constructed. It has an empty building and a tree farm. The city was built for the collection and production of wood, plus making it easier to travel north.
"Derevo-" comes from "Tree" or "Wood" in Russian, referring to its primary resource production.
Sublockedchestiagrad[edit]
A planned city was supposed to be constructed near Lockedchestiagrad, but it was eventually scrapped. The site remains abandoned.
Zhelezograd[edit]
Tsar_Boris wanted to close the mines of Lockedchestiagrad because of its unsuccessful task of collecting enough minerals for the farlands, so alternatively Zhelezograd was thought to be created somewhere near Derevograd, but currently, it has no buildings and no population.
"Zhelezo-" means "Iron" in Russian.
Farlands citizenship[edit]
Although the kingdom became isolated from the rest of the server and has prohibited any warp in the farlands, it has rules that the citizens of Lockedchestia must follow:
- You must demonstrate your diplomatic importance for the Closest-Farlands LC Kingdom or demonstrate your citizenship by showing your passport.
- If you can not demonstrate your citizenship, then you must leave the land.
- A person must provide the names of his alt accounts for the security of the kingdom.
- If a person does not follow the rules of the server, it will be reported to the owner of the server.
- Do not grief, destroy, damage or change anything without permission.
- If you're granted citizenship or you have work in the lands, you should leave the land as fast as you can.
To have citizenship, you need to have a passport which only Tsar_Boris can give you.
Farlands Anthem[edit]
The anthem represents their constant defeats against their enemy, and how they are constantly trying to rebuild themselves. It's a deep but beautiful music made by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, part of the requiem.
Farlands Anthem [Intoritus Aeternam - Mozart]
Although the original text of the anthem is unofficial, is still unknown the real text for the farlands.
