Nation of Underwater Territories

Introduction
The Nation of Underwater Territories (or NUT for short) is a small underwater base in to the west of Maui island, in the middle of the coral reef. It is currently the only nation that is water-based and it has high anti-grief capabilities in case of a war. Since its area is not set, the claim increases the bigger it gets expanded. It also accomidates a large underground mine and multiple attractions such as the Palace for Enviromental, Natrual and Industrial Solutions (the PENIS), the Colossal Ominous Colourful Kayak (the COCK) (It is advised to avoid the COCK as you need to pay a hefty toll to pass it) and many more as time goes on. Currently it seems as though it has the highest total death count out of every nation on the server even though it only has 5 residents, and nearly all of those deaths are by drowning

History
It started during may 15th 2021 when the leader's first base was griefed heavily, leaving almost nothing behind. The first truly underwater building of the NUT required about 150 deaths to make, and it now hosts minor storage and a large portal. Originally the nation was called the Fish n Chips, but then it was changed to Neutral Underwater Turf, and then changed again to Nation of Underwater Territories.

Terrain
Since the NUT is located mainly ontop of a coral reef, moving fast on the surface is quite hard. However, due to the amount of dolphins in the area, it is advised to swim instead of boat. Most buildings of the FUC are deep enough that you will run out of air before you reach the surface, with the exception being the PENIS as it’s quite tall. Ignoring the corals though, the terrain is almost perfectly flat and mostly made of a 5 block deep layer of sand with occasional blotches of dirt and clay.

Plans
in progress is the residential area, a farm, a giant statue, a conduit, an anti-aquarium, and much more. Larger projects include a underwater railway that not only acts like a siteseeing site but also connects mainland Maui to its neighbouring islands.
