Kostaria

Kostaria is a nation built by the players of the Kings of the End faction from MagicGum's TrappedSMP, after the SMP proved to be a failure.

Before Stoneworks
Kostaria was preceded by the faction Kings of the End on a semivanilla multiplayer server commonly referred to as the TrappedSMP. The survival-multiplayer server was created by a YouTuber, MagicGum, who wanted a simulation of a scenario in which every person in the world was transported into the world of Minecraft. Unfortunately, after sparse moderation by the skeleton crew of a mod team leading to rampant cheating and features ineffective at simulating a "trapped in Minecraft" scenario such as heavy debuffs after killing too many players and a claim system, many players on the TrappedSMP felt that the server had become "2b2t but worse."

After much of the server had lost interest, the Kings of the End was the only active faction remaining, and so decided to look for new grounds to expand, much like many of the other factions that decided to move to different servers or create their own SMPs.
