It is a corporate nation administered by the Red. CEO [[Mitomon]], identifiable by the fashionable red tie and pocket square. The Capital of Redstone Valley, [[San Jose]], is located in the northwestern portion of Tierra del Fuego. Along with Toe Forest, Red. also owns the southwestern ocean territory on the southern world border, claimed after an international survey yielded positive results regarding ocean monument conservation, land belonging to [[Emerald Enclave]] after their acquisition, and other protected sites.

The first known inhabitants of what is now mainland Redstone Valley were the citizens of [[Ravvsend]] and [[ToeGANG]] . They ended up fighting each other over ownership of the flower forest in the [[Unnecessary War]]. Later on, ToeGANG was absorbed into [[HUM]] to protect the land in the absence of its owners, and then returned upon their return. ToeGANG later abandoned the land again on 11/07/2020. That same day, [[Doctor Hound]] announced that [[Fianna]] was annexing the land. On 12/13/21, Fianna announced it would be releasing the old toeGANG land politically, but would still protect it to ensure it was given to a new player to join them in the Central region.

Mitomon ended up being that new player and began construction of Apple Campus almost immediately in what is now San Jose. The repair and renovation of the Very Big Observatory was also completed at this time. After a week of sand and gravel gathering by [[Mitomon]] and later [[Trimyy]], tons of white concrete had already been made for Apple Campus, and it still had not been completed. During this time, Redstone Valley accepted donations of bricks and traded stacks of sand for glass to [[StonkseleksI]]. The scale of the build was simply too much however, so the construction of a new headquarters made out of a less time-consuming material was commenced. After the first floor of Redstone Tower was created, other projects and farms, such as the iron and wool farms, were created. Luckily, development was fairly quick due to the nature of the land being settled. ToeGANG had built rudimentary farms for food, wool, and feathers while also having a storage full of concrete, wood, and other materials. Because of this and other land improvements, Redstone Valley was able to get a great head start despite being a new single-player nation. Globally, the creation of Red. was celebrated with some calling it the most "based" nation in Elgeis history.

On May 6,2022, [[PeenorCreenis]], ruler of [[Creenis]], announced a formal alliance with Redstone Valley and [[Montrose]] as a gesture of gratitude for those two nations assisting his and Creenis' inception in Elgeis. However, this was done without consulting either nation beforehand, leading to a quick retraction of the statement and negotiations between the nations. Eventually, all three became allies as a result of this.

After declaringRed. declared the message: "After carefully analyzing the results of the global survey last week, we have found that less than 18% of respondents considered draining an ocean monument to not be morally flawless. Despite this, an overwhelming majority (88.2%) would be excited to tour a drained monument to enjoy the architecture, partake in minigames, or learn about guardian biology. In the interest of both science and historical preservation, Redstone Valley will establish a corporate office in the highlighted area below to begin preparations for the operation and preserve one of the few remaining wild ocean monument sites. An official name for this area will be announced during the opening ceremony after construction ends," the [[West Sea Confederation]] announced it had not allowed the acquisition and invited Redstone Valley to negotiations involving potentially ceding the territory. Seeing Ocean Monument preservation as highly important and having not known the WSC even existed, Redstone Valley agreed and left the talks after having the claims were approved with the condition that the unused sea area should be returned to unclaimed status after construction.

Near the end of the second month of its existence, Redstone Valley had already partnered with great allies, created a few buildings, and made more farms. HoweverDespite that, this linear growth would not be enough to place Red on the global stage. However, series of events led to both [[Strider112358]] and [[Bluedude104]] joining the Valley. This period is named after the slime block as it can propel entities to large heights similarly to how the new members led to almost immediate Redstone Valley global relevance. By the end of this period, with the country existing for less than two months, Redstone Valley was already an economic powerhouse and more industrialized than many of Elgeis' established nations.

The nation had developed a novel approach to fast, renewable travel. AIt was discovered that a wither blockticle(wither head projectile) could be controlled with a long channel of bubble elevators and aimed at a tower that the passenger would throw an ender pearl into. The pearl would be hit with the explosive power of the wither blockticle and be launched much farther than a thrown ender pearl could. This new idea however, required a long strip of barren land, and so on August 3rd, 2022, Mitomon announced the now infamous (and defunct) New Wither Zone to build the upgraded version of the [[Blockticle Accelerator]] he had designed, to be located inside the land [[Pawnch]] had unclaimed in the eastern desert. <blockquote>Howdy loyal Redstone Valley customers, current, and future allies! We @Redstone Valley have a few announcements to make today. Some of you may have logged on to Elgeis recently and wondered to yourself, " Where is my favorite CEO Mitomon?", as I have not been online even to AFK like usual. Do not worry, for I am perfectly fine and have simply been creating and improving upon some new products for you to enjoy! Unfortunately, those will be announced at a later date, but let's just say, if you like Chess by @Insidious_Apple , you are really gonna love this ;] (no, it is not Chess 2). Now, onto the real announcements: as the less attentive of you may have already noticed, we are claiming the Championis desert and naming it the New Wither Zone. After listening to some customer feedback, we realized many people, especially those of the Grove Faith, were uncomfortable with us conducting wither testing under the GANG TOB above ATRaC. We always encourage consumer feedback as we strive to maintain a healthy work and play environment for those of all races, nationalities, and faiths. For that reason, we will be conducting all future Blockticle Accelerator-related research in the NWZ. Now everyone can happily engage in parkour and other TOB-related activities above ATRaC. Please note, regular ATRaC research will continue there, and our international researchers are free to conduct Blockticle research in their plots if they need to. Why this region specifically? Well, if placed in the center, we are able to avoid major civilization centers, historical sites, and also reduce containment breach damage in case of the rare, unlikely scenario where the worst happens. We will also be close enough to our Eastern allies @Oostland and @Creenis for them to provide containment support, if necessary. There also won't be a TOB above it. Now, what are the A and B tracts? Redstone Valley is also excited to announce the creation of the R Combinator startup nation accelerator! Making and running a nation is ''hard'', especially for those new to Elgeis, but creating a corporate nation is ''even harder''. There are relatively few corporate nations in the history of Elgeis, and the R Combinator will attempt to help potential founders dreaming of leading one by backing them with our industrial and scientific might. We will work intensively with new corporate nations for the duration of their training, to get them into the best possible shape and refine their policies, products, and consumer base. We will also instill in them the value behind historical buildings. Any founder deciding to settle a tract with historical sites will have to protect the sites or be terminated from the program. Each tract will be gifted to qualified applicants accepted into the program after successful completion of it. But RC doesn’t end upon program completion. We and the RC alumni network will continue to help founders for the life of their company, and beyond. The tract sizes may change depending on a specific startup's needs as we see fit, these are only suggestions. That's all for now, and I hope you have a Redtastic ™️ Day! </blockquote>

The sculk period was marked by the rapid expansion of the world border, the addition of large cave systems under what was previously bedrock, and the sudden appearance of wardens, sculk, and ancient cities. It led to more political turmoil and ultimately growth for Redstone Valley.

On 9/4/2022, the world expanded and those seeking to discover new lands ventured forth. Mitomon chose to focus on what is now the [[Redstone Sea]] area, specifically the mountains and cave systems west of Emerald Enterprise. He found a strange and eerie biome no one had ever seen before, the Deep Dark. It was filled with sculk blocks and was the location of the very first sighting and screenshotting of a Warden by none other than Mitomon himself. Since it was so rare and the Ozai and Wohlstanders had expressed their interest in raiding and griefing Redstone Valley outposts, all cards were on the table for the protection of this rare yet unexplored biome. That very day, RSV claimed the enormous area where the biome was suspected to be along with another large parcel in the northeast of elgeis as a red herring. Though unorthodox and unprecedented, the red herring strategy was justified due to the non-functional nature of player-placed shriekers. This plan was effective in protecting the area as looters like [[Coblue]] quickly descended on the designated area to steal the disc fragments and swift sneak enchantments. Redstone Valley's enemies took advantage of this political overclaiming and issued an ultimatum threatening RSV with war if all possessions outside of the Valley itself were not forfeited, citing the alleged lack of use of the land and "imperialism". Notably, one of the supporters of this threat was Wohlstand, the largest nation in elgeisElgeis by landmass, yet one of the smallest by active population.
