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 168 ⟶ 166:
=== The White Dye Period (5/4/2023 - 8/4/2023) ===
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 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
