Current Chief Executive Officer: [[Mitomon]]
== Etymology ==▼
Redstone Valley was named by [[Mitomon]] due to both the geographical position of the small nation and its status as an underdog in a world with well-established nations. The "Redstone" portion serves as both the nation's emblem and its main focus of creating redstone machines. Out of character, it is meant as a parody of Silicon Valley and American pop culture. Many policy decisions in-game are linked directly to this, such as the naming of the warehouse company RedEx, but others have serendipitously and ironically occurred organically, such as the constant involvement in wars in the [[Naadic Wars|Middle East]]. ▼
While Mitomon originally hoped for the nation's name to be abbreviated as Red., [[CreeperColder]] the mapmaker of the time abbreviated it as R.S.V. The abbreviation stuck and Red. was used less and less.

Line 136 ⟶ 134:
The [[The Naadic Wars|First Naadic War]] began on March 11th after [[LettuceHeads]] DM'd Mitomon to ask about buying the entire GIANO purchase for Naador. Mitomon declined, after which Lettuce suggested they buy it back and give it to Oberos as that nation planned to allow them to use their land as they pleased. Mitomon again declined as many future projects were planned for the area. The CEO then clarified that he had no issues with the new nation of Naador, and that he would even be very open to working on border projects together with them. The two left it at that until 15 minutes later Lettuce threatened "action" if the land was not sold to them (or unclaimed by RSV so that Naador could build on it) with the "offer" again declined by Mitomon. This escalated into Paarm, the leader of the nation, annexing the entire GIANO purchase in world news. This led to an announcement by the Red. CEO to defend the nation's sovereignty and immediate support from the [[Shaxian Empire]]. That same day HUM offered to work as a mediator between the two nations which RSV accepted as a way to show willingness to prevent the onset of war despite HUM being biased against them. The talks were unfruitful as the Naadori refused to accept their problematic conduct and believed Redstone Valley to be at fault simply for buying the land from Oberos before them. Again, despite these issues, RSV accepted a ceasefire as proposed by the mediator until the next day.
A day later, Camaradultudor announced Ozai's support of Naador's conquest and promised that any of Redstone Valley's allies' participation in the war would lead to Ozai joining the war against them. Camara claimed that Paarm had asked for this support, but
After being informed of this and the fact that the mediation still had not given any results, Red. prepared for war. Lettuce then announced that Paarm had attempted to imprison him to avoid the war and pin it all on him and Nolan despite his previous approval of it. This led to the Naadic revolution and the formation of three separate states: [[New Championis]], [[Shremmelton]], and Naador, with the first and last being controlled by LettuceHeads after Paarm was exiled and the second by NolanGamerKingYT. It was during this chaos that Redstone Valley sent troops into New Championis and Shremmelton to build fortifications and force the rulers to take back their annexation of GIANO and end the war. While RSV occupied the entirety of all three nations, Paarm was in hiding in HUM, Lettuce was banned, and Nolan was assassinated as he did not respond to any attempt at negotiating the end of the war. After he was assassinated, Nolan claimed he did not even know a war was going on and that he only wanted to just build and be an isolationist. It was later discovered through [[AliveSnowTMH]] that Nolan ''had'' in fact known about the war and planned to "hunt RSV" at Emerald Enterprise with Snow, someone he invited exclusively to join his nation to fight Red. in the war. Since Paarm was the default ruler of the countries of New Championis and Naador, negotiations for that area were done with him, while separate negotiations were conducted with Nolan as Paarm insisted he had nothing to do with the nation of Shremmelton. The conflict ended with the Treaties of San Francisco, one destroyed the previous nations of New Championis and Naador, forming the new nation of Naador, and the gifting of the RSV-occupied land to Paarm. The other destroyed the old nation of Shremmelton with a new Shremmelton taking its place and the gifting of that RSV-occupied territory to NolanGamerKingYT. No reparations were asked from the new rulers with the only requirements of both treaties being the permanent end of hostilities from both nations and the promise to not create any laws marginalizing any group in the new nations by their rulers. In exchange, RSV would give them all of the land their old nations used to control and form economic and defensive alliances with them to help rebuild their nations with protection while they did so.

To celebrate Redstone Valley's first anniversary, the Home Creepot was announced, the largest ever collection of automatic vending machines in Elgeis. It sells armor, tridents, tools, building materials like sand, gravel, and glass, along with other items like amethyst crystals and clocks.
=== The White Dye Period (5/4/2023 - 12/31/2023) ===
==== Van Ausland Independence ====
=== Geography ===▼
After the first sighting of Moth_Aus in months, he posted a cryptic message stating,"
<nowiki>**</nowiki>Gday**
<nowiki>*</nowiki>I have returned from a deep hole in the ground and as the keep has not been raided and my stuff hasn’t been loaded, Van Ausland May become a political entity again.*
<nowiki>*</nowiki>i’ll have a think about it*" and then asked Mitomon about independence. The CEO allowed Moth to secede unconditionally and so the Republic of Van Ausland was recreated. Soon after, Redstone Valley also allied the nation to aid their economic development and protect them from external threats.
==== Third Naadic War ====
After regaining Ozan support, Paarm declared war on Nyania in order to take the Kovska from the nation. The ruler's justification was that despite legally owning the territory as was granted by its previous owner NolangamerkingYT, Nyania did not have enough of a historical or cultural claim to the area. This resulted in Redstone Valley joining the [[Third Naadic War]] to assist their ally Nyania.
==== Maintenance ====
In the aftermath of the war, RSV buckled up and set to recover and focus on building. Roads and small farms were built, personal projects were started, and larger farms were improved. Most of this work was notable in Sacramento and San Francisco.
==== Moth_Aus Terrorist Attack ====
Despite being allied to RSV, Moth_Aus decided to bomb the Emerald Enterprise city streets on 8/5/2023. In reality, Moth had been working with Paarm throughout the previous war, accepted material gifts from him, and even damaged the POLR Ice Farm with TNT. He announced his attack through the in-game chat cryptically at first, then publicly immediately after being confronted by Mitomon. He went into hiding the rest of that day until Mitomon occupied the entirety of Van Ausland. He proceeded to run to the San Jose RedEx to attempt to bomb and loot it, but was killed by one hit from Mitomon's bow as he was only wearing iron armor. Moth was later banned as he claimed he didn't "care about the server" anymore and just was "just bored." In the aftermath, some of VA's old land was claimed by RSV, some was left for new players, and a territory disputed by neighboring Aradialma was also released for new players. Aradialma also used this as an opportunity to offload extra territory including a portion of the [[Redstone Sea]] and both Yellow and Green Island.
==== Red Creeper Returns ====
On 9/4/2023, AliveSnowTMH returned from inactivity and claimed he would show RSV no mercy if they tried to imprison him. This led to a response from Mitomon reinforcing the nation's commitment to seeing justice served and then another bout of inactivity from Snow.
==== Fourth Naadic War ====
On 10/19/2023, RSV officially joined the [[Fourth Naadic War]] to help its Goomlandian allies retrieve the items stolen from them by Paarm. This led to advancement in Redtheon military technology, large investments in armament fabrication, more combat experience for RSV employees, and increased research in alternative weaponry for the nation.
==== DeathPercent Wither Bombings ====
On 12/08/2023, Mitomon announced that the Sacramento RedEx and Home Creepot had been bombed. Signs of a wither explosion near RedEx, TNT explosions on a Home Creepot wall, and wither skull pockmarks on the pavement of Squink Square were some of the notable features recovered by forensics, A loose wither in Shaxia confirmed these suspicions. With assistance from FlyingGMM and a prototype of a novel security technology researched during the Fourth Naadic War, the suspects list had been narrowed down to single person within a day of the bombing. A confession was extracted from Deathpercent, then known as kliener, in exchange for a more merciful punishment soon after the announcement. The criminal accepted the charges of two counts of attempted grand larceny, one count of petit larceny, and one count of vandalism. Instead of incarceration, DeathPercent agreed to collect twelve cases of obsidian within two months to make amends.
The Redstone Valley mainland is located in the flower forest known as Toe Forest. It can be considered a valley due to the mountains on its southwest border with [[Schevakia]] and the northeastern mountains of Montrosian [[Fianna]].The southern Ocean Monument territory is a deep ocean biome with a small almost invisible river along the world border. Since the river is right beside a small island, the chain has been named Innovation Archipelago. ATRaC is located on a swamp biome with a river and deep ocean biome running through it.

==Government and Politics==
Redstone Valley was founded on 5/03/2022 and has been led by Mitomon since then. It is an autocratic technocracy made up of five main claims in locations across the Elgeis overworld. It is the world's only technocratic government, and has been since its founding, with its meritocratic ideals balanced by the Redstone Valley Code of Conduct.
Written by Mitomon, the Redstone Valley Code of Conduct serves as the country's supreme legal document, guiding all corporate and international affairs.
The corporate government comprises eight main areas, Engineering, Infrastructure, Scientific Research, Diplomacy, Defense, Economics, and Record-Keeping. These branches of government are all managed entirely by the CEO by default, though important decisions are often consulted on with other C-level members. These members are also known as faction mods. Below them are regular faction members who may still provide their input in major decisions, though they usually do not because of their own inactivity.
These areas are run by an assortment of companies made up of and led by members of Redstone Valley. While some focus solely on one area of government, others often share responsibilities between them, or in cases where a suitable company does not yet exist, with a player directly.
The current list of companies and their positions can be found [[Companies of RSV|here]].

=== Military ===
The CEO is the commander of the Redstone Valley Armed Forces, appointing leaders of general-purpose squads to take control of terrestrial, aerial, nautical, subterranean, or extradimensional points of interest. Though admittedly lackluster in the beginning, the RSVAF has unwittingly improved over time with a reluctantly constant involvement in wars. It has been involved in four defensive wars, all Naadic in origin, with varying outcomes. The engineering philosophy of seeing all problems as technical has led to some interesting results when applied to warfare. It resulted in the first large-scale crying obsidian military base built during a war, the first weaponization of wardens, and the birth of modular quadratic TNT cannons. All of these breakthroughs were seen under Redtheon, the company in charge of all military engineering in the nation.

====Literature====
Currently, there have been three books published by Redstone Valley, ''An Amiable Ally,'' ''An Introduction to Blockticle Physics,'' and ''An Introduction to the RSV Measurement System.'' The first is a 69 page science fiction and fantasy story told mainly from the main character's point of view. In it, the protagonist tires of his old traditional way of life after discovering the marvels of technology through a chance encounter with a rather dashing stranger. The tale describes the
''An Introduction to Blockticle Physics'' was created after research at ATRaC resulted in the direct observation of blocks, blockticles, and particles. The book describes the various properties of each type of substance (all colloquially known as blockticles) and gives a brief introduction to science itself.
''An Introduction to the RSV Measurement System'' describes units of measurement common in Redstone Valley and adopted by the majority of
