The Insane History of Minecraft's OLDEST City

This is Project Zearth, which is Minecraft's oldest city project that is still actively being worked on! It is also one of the longest running minecraft building servers that has ever existed, joining the ranks of the likes of Broville and Greenfield. I had the great opportunity to talk with Project Zearth's founder and original creator, Xoyjaz. What he had to share was incredible.

[@Xoyjaz]

Thank you so much for sharing our work on Project Zearth, Ryan! Your attention to detail and creativity truly brought our story to life. Your work will take you far, and we cant wait to be part of it. We are grateful for the work you have put into this!

[@PaladinRyan]

thank you! I’m so happy we got to do this and shine some light on the project. Cant wait to be a part of this going forward!

[@MrMikeGaming]

So nice to see/ hear your story, it’s truly an epic tale and one to be proud of!

[@Xoyjaz]

@@MrMikeGaming thank you so much for the support! Really appreciate it.

[@Xoyjaz]

@@PaladinRyan going to be very exciting!

[@MrMikeGaming]

@@Xoyjaz of course!!

[@f-zilla7347]

Honestly one of the most impressive feats I’ve ever heard of. Keeping your first world and developing it for over 10 years takes insane dedication that the majority of people, including myself, definitely don’t have when it comes to Minecraft.

[@project_zearth_mc]

We from the Project Zearth team we want to thank you so much for your amazing work you have put into this video. Keep up the great work!

[@Doofing_Cookies]

Downloading this masterpiece. It is a time capsule

[@FrenzyLight]

Amazing video! Thank you for crediting me in the vid 😊

[@Xoyjaz]

ESSEEEEEEE!

[@stormhought]

One the very first world's my brother's played on was simply called "N". We gathered all our resources from a huge ravine (it was Xbox 360 so it was huge in scale) and one my brother's even lived in it, with trees and everything. I would always beg him to come up with us lol.

[@-AWEJOKER]

Great video! As a member of the Project Zearth team I am proud :)

[@MrMikeGaming]

This is just amazing! The time and dedication from all of the Project Zearth team just because they loved doing it… very sweet and nostalgic! Only matched by the effort you put into this video and your interview with Xoyjaz! Love this

[@PaladinRyan]

thanks Mike

[@MrMikeGaming]

@@PaladinRyan Of course man! Beautifully done. And thank goodness for that CD haha

[@ideac.]

This is why i consider minecraft one of the best games ever created
tell me which other game could possibly have a history like minecraft? passion projects like these
i wonder how many other smaller old projects have been hidden to time out there, we definitely have more to find out

[@markus_park]

This is really cool! Man, this feels so nostalgic too! Especially the "Mob War" thingie

[@Cocoecake]

Absolutely stunning world and insightful interview-
(small Among Us spotted at 14:47 )

[@BANCLAMOFFICIAL]

I'm working on my own city but it isn't even close to a city yet. This city is MASSIVE

[@mmb_daniel]

As a 12 years Minecraft Gamer and started my map for 10 years, I like your project, I am glad you have a good team to build this city.
I started building my city on mobile for 8 years and now I switch to PC and mostly I build it on my own wothout a team.

[@user-py3dv1oj6k]

As a Fan of This Map. This is Truly Relatable

[@Elycha_]

Very cool and interesting! I love those old Minecraft projects that are still being worked on to this day, so impressive!

[@evank3718]

11:46 I wouldn’t mind that..

[@LandonEmma]

Playing the game longer than I am alive? Impossible, I am older by Minecraft by 3 years.

[@yes-iq4to]

Feels weird seeing you with a lot of subscribers but I'm glad you have grown

[@LandonEmma]

When I was a kid I wish I could keep all of my worlds.

[@Pau_Aventurer]

Amazing video and city!

[@queuzed]

I exploring this map on my own out of boredom after i looked up the most popular maps on a random map website.
I am so glad i chose this world to adventure in this evening. I am batman.

[@patphelps3215]

Awesome video! I have an older world started in 2014-15 I would love to have you come look at or even make a video on!

[@soyunperedor]

ah, dude this is awesome! i'll have to check it out one day soon.

[@birdblackbird4766]

thank youuuuu!!! I'm gonna visit this soon!

[@picorims]

Thanks a lot for this amazing video! Really well put together. So much memories resurfacing, thanks for this moment ❤. My eyes are getting wet right now.

[@Xoyjaz]

Buddy, you deserve it

[@lorenmax2.013]

Jesus christ that ending absolutely destroyed my heart.

[@Xoyjaz]

[@SamiTheAnxiousBean]

im so glad you decided to cover this project!!!
more eyes need to see it :3

[@BiGGestReds]

Thank you for nice videos I love it

[@YoSwizz99]

I want to say congratulations to all the members putting in effort in making this world. This is my first time hearing about this community and projects the team has went through and ongoing. A couple of friends started making a world of our own, and it’s turning out good so far. I love all the designs, teamwork this community has and I’m happy I found about this (wish I known about this sooner) I really hope nothing bad comes to this community and all to thrive and prosper not only in this project, but everything else they are going through. This is so awesome, makes me want to play Minecraft more and expand my own city. Not only the Zearth community, but all this channel has my support. Thank you❤❤❤

[@Xoyjaz]

Thank you so much Swizz, means a lot to us! Hope you enjoy the map twice as much, as we did creating it.

[@CraziiCarlsson]

This is probably the most impressive minecraft lore vid I've ever seen. Also first

[@Xoyjaz]

Thank you!

[@RukaUrushibara]

Kewl videooo

[@arthurrimbaud5416]

[@PROJllN]

11:34 and I thought I am the only one who had the idea of quests in a city map. Pathetic

[@ElBriTos]

[@katiedevine1579]

I might make my own project on my Xbox One X.

[@pulo4790]

Hi Ryan iam bit late today but i can feel that this video is going to be amazing

[@PaladinRyan]

thanks as always Pulo :)

[@TwilightVaramek]

i dont play in my very first world but i wish i saved it how ever i do have a very old savce file on my server i run for m,yself and freinds on ocasion the world was generated in 2013 and is still the same world tons of history and random builds all over it

[@montgomerygatorplayzminecr3768]

Is this the map that the little club used?

[@svenrawandreloaded]

Europeans can make anything sound important

[@brianrigsby7900]

Is it available on pocket? Looks cool to explore

[@Xoyjaz]

It used to be, but not anymore. Im sorry, maybe one day it will again!

[@Hex_the_hexagon]

I am your 800th like on your video nice

[@BOB123-fy5lf]

I figured out how to get project zearth in bedrock you just have to get the java download and put it into chunker
then it switches it to what everyou chose

[@jasons3386]

That’s been out

[@TheOneCity1]

Wow ❤❤❤❤❤

[@birdblackbird4766]

I couldn't move my first minecraft world to the game once I finally got a bought version (I had gotten a free alpha version before it boomed in popularity when there was a free to play weekend and it took ages before I got a paid version) I do still have the save files though hoping to one day find someone that can migrate it to a modern version

[@PaladinRyan]

i'm sure that's definitely possible!

[@birdblackbird4766]

I haven't found anyone that can yet though, I have found people in the omni archive that could derive from my files that they were saves and not a whole game version but that's it @@PaladinRyan

[@gnome764]

(Comment to fuel the algorithm)

[@ragnaroni]

Does the city have generic boring suburbs? Thats the REAL question!

[@Xoyjaz]

You have to check it out to judge for yourself!

[@ragnaroni]

@@Xoyjaz So how do I get to check it out?

Wow he's Norwegian
