Located above nether-roof spawn, Flint is the dimension's most known and relevant build-project placed only 144 meters in diameter although holding up with its execution of buildings and esthetics. This city began development on September 25th 2025 and announced becoming public on October 1st. Since then it has sought out for interested players and volunteers to help contribute. The builds consists most prominently on the outer disc surrounding its 72 meter elliptical gold-only monument, which gives the city its signature nostalgic appeal while simultaneously legitimizing its wealth.

Beginning:
_Telz, who recently fixed his account issues on the minecraft-online database decided it was a good idea to began a new project. He mentioned wanting to build a group project that would be fundamentally simple but item expensive and visually nostalgic. Something that's vaguely "herobrine-aero"*made up nostalgia term by telz, but also of elements from 'new' minecraft. In mid august 2025 he suggested selling his valuable function-less items for a "diamond-only town" as players were already offering 5-10 db stacks to buy them. Unfortunately by the time he got his account re-verified the items lost significant value, a liquid-market phenomenon Telz wasn't used to on minecraft servers up until this point. Two weeks later he suggested building a structure or community project in the nether, formed by vibrant ore materials. This idea was instantly discouraged by other players and moderators as the nether was intended to reset after the update, 
TheDemetri went as far to state that backing up the build would require two worlds to run simultaneously and it would take years to transfer. Despite this push-back other mods and admins were intrigued by the concept, and some claimed that a backup would be easy. The challenge and criticism gave him ambition to continue the project more rigorously, he understood previous "nether scares" on the server, such as the events of Eternum. Telz found the controversy around being deleted lucrative for the city's success. He wasn't going to let this concept run down the same fate. He came up with the term "Flint", being based on his real hometown of Flint Michigan, and formed a gag that the nether was biblical hell and couldn't exhibit water. At first he thought building the center region out of iron would play on the city's title then settled for gold, as at the time it was currently cheaper than iron and better fit the subtle notch-era esthetic. In late September he would build the city's foundation, its gold monument, and its headquarter building; finishing them on the 31st and announcing it as public a day after.
