Deadbush, originally founded as Deadbush City, is a Premier metropolis founded and owned by Mojang1014, located at M36, M37, and M38 on the MRT Mesa Line. Deadbush was founded in the Grand Mesa on April 6, 2018, and currently serves as the largest city in the region.

Deadbush is known for its rapid growth and its absorption of nearby towns. Deadbush is one of the largest cities in the New World and holds the record for the most airports in one city at five. Deadbush was promoted to Premier on December 3, 2018.

History

Founding and integration of Southfields (2018)

The Pioneer district in July 2018

Deadbush was founded on April 6, 2018, by Mojang1014, then known as MojangChan. Deadbush started in a valley between two plateaus, currently known as the Pioneer district. Shortly after construction on Deadbush's first set of roads began, MojangChan received a complaint from Heampstead mayor MikeRoma of its close proximity. This was quickly resolved with assistance from moderator megascatterbomb by establishing a 300-block buffer zone between the towns.

While exploring the plateau south of Pioneer, MojangChan stumbled upon the abandoned settlement of Southfields owned by ModernArt. MojangChan asked ModernArt if it could be integrated into Deadbush, and ModernArt affirmed. MojangChan put his priorities to urbanize the gap between Pioneer and Southfields, so two new districts were created: Middelhoog and Valley. During this time that Deadbush's primary government offices were constructed, specifically the Union Building and the Deadbush Courthouse. In 2018, Mojangitis was coined as MojangChan, who at the time knew very little about WorldEdit, experimented with the 'stack' command on a furnished office building shell. With relative success, the technique was continually used throughout the city to create many of Deadbush's high-rise developments.

Senator and Governor (2018)

During the summer of 2018, the gap between Pioneer and Southfields was filled. MojangChan decided to apply for Senator; however, being bothered by some barren spots near Deadbush's then-main road, the pace of urbanization had to be increased. Three new districts, Oaksburg, New Manila, and Asulton, were established to double the size of the city, with a new arterial road paved to serve these areas. Deadbush achieved Senator on July 1, 2018.

After achieving Senator, MojangChan constructed Deadbush's first air facility, and the first air facility in the Grand Mesa: Deadbush Northeast Airfield. The increasingly rapid pace of expansion continued beyond attaining Senator with the construction of numerous skyscrapers, high-rise condominiums, and public housing units built using the Mojangitis method. As a result, Deadbush was promoted to Governor on September 30, 2018, nearly three months after being promoted to Senator.

Airports, town absorptions, and Premier (2018)

As part of Deadbush's master plan at the time, two airports were to serve Deadbush: a large international airport and a smaller regional airport. The smaller airport, Deadbush Edgecliff Airport, was the first of these airports to be constructed and West Mesa International Airport was constructed after.

MojangChan undertook an initiative of bringing development and urban sprawl into the city by persuading members to develop towns around the city, including Gemstride, Borderville, Euphorial, Weezerville, Peachtree City, Islington, and Kota Lembah. Due to some of the mayors' inactivity of those towns, some of the towns were transferred into Deadbush jurisdiction either through inactive asset transfers or through deputy mayor successions. Older existing settlements within the area were also integrated into Deadbush or subject to its authority, including Valletta. Satellite towns built by MojangChan, such as Johnston, were also integrated into Deadbush, increasing the town's size. Deadbush became infamous for acquiring, colloquially known as "eating", its neighboring towns, and its rapid growth. Deadbush was promoted to Premier on December 3, 2018, becoming the fastest town to be promoted to Premier with respect to its foundation date with 242 days. This was later passed by Porton achieving the rank in 190 days.

New airports and bursts of growth (2020–present)

In late 2020, MojangChan, known then as MF_Moj, moved to Singapore, which inspired him to create stacked high-rise housing estates outside Deadbush's city center. The first new town created was Euphorial New Town, located in the former Sudwest Township. Numerous airports were built and demolished throughout Deadbush, including Deadbush International Airport, as the city's new main airport.

Deadbush continues expanding despite its massive size, with a long-term goal of being the largest city in the server, currently held by Achowalogen Takachsin. One satellite town as of November 2, 2022, Southwest City, is planned to be integrated into Deadbush.

Airports

West Mesa International Airport, the city's former main airport

Deadbush is known for its numerous airports, current and former. In total, Deadbush has had a total of nine unique airports, the most of any city. Deadbush's five current airports are West Mesa International Airport, Deadbush Foxfoe Memorial Airport, Deadbush Johnston-Euphorial Airport, Deadbush Valletta Desert Airport, and Deadbush International Airport. The four former airports were Deadbush Northeast Airfield, Deadbush Northeast Airfield, Deadbush Pioneer-Howard Airport, and Valletta Desert Airfield.

The first airport created in Deadbush was Deadbush Northeast Airfield, founded and demolished in 2018. The second airport created was Deadbush Edgecliff Airport, which had overbooked gate requests, resulting in anger from those who were approved gates but were not given one. This was gradually resolved with the creation of West Mesa International Airport, which became one of the most well-known airports of the latter half of Epsilon.

Within the span of 2020 to 2022, four more airports were constructed, complementing the massive scale of the city at that time. The airports were Deadbush Foxfoe Memorial Airport, Deadbush Johnston-Euphorial Airport, Deadbush Pioneer-Howard Airport, and Deadbush Valletta Desert Airport. Deadbush Pioneer-Howard Airport was demolished to make way for Deadbush International Airport, replacing West Mesa International Airport as the city's main airport.
