'''Spongecraftia''' is a Minecraft superflat map that ~~served~~ as the world of [[SpongeCraft Classic]]. It ~~was~~ divided into many countries and sub-regions, with the [[Grand Spongecraftia Directory]] serving as a centralized portal area. The name "Spongecraftia" was coined by [[Spongeboblover|sbl]]. During the original server's run, a live map of Spongecraftia could have been seen on a special page without joining the server.

During the original server's run, a live map of Spongecraftia could have been seen on a special page without joining the server.

Spongecraftia was used throughout the four-year lifespan of SpongeCraft Classic, before being uploaded as a public archive immediately after the server's closure in September 2019. Five years later, during [[Anthemic Anniversary]] in August 2024, it was brought back to life as a secondary realm in the second-generation server, [[SpongeCraft Frontiers]]. While [[Overlandia]] remains the main world of SCF, players are able to freely travel between and build in both worlds.

== Capital Cities ==

Spongecraftia had seen several server capitals designated since 2015. Historic Spongecraftia, the first country and birthplace of the server, was the default capital as the server's spawn site and largest development. This capital designation was later refined to just HSC City when the country of Historic Spongecraftia grew beyond the original city. When the original Directory located in HSC City faced growth constraints as an increasingly large number of countries/cities were built and HSC City became too packed to expand the Directory, a new Directory was constructed in northwestern Spongecraftia; the spawn site for the server was also moved there (the spawn site for HSC City continued to be the original spawn site for the entire server). This directory lasted for quite some time and was named the [[Grand Spongecraftia Directory|Grand Spongecraftia Station]] with an increased amount of space. A small community formed around this directory; several events were also held there.

A third Directory was created in August 2017 to alleviate further growing pains. A new location was chosen for the new Directory, far less remote than Grand Spongecraftia Station. This third Directory was named the Grand Spongecraftia Directory and is far more ornate than either of its predecessors. However, at this junction, an actual capital city of the server was built northwest of HSC City and was called Raspberry City. The server's spawn site and capital stayed separate for the rest of the server's life.
