History

The United States took control of Puerto Rico from Spain in the aftermath of the Spanish-American War under the terms of the Treaty of Paris of 1898. In 1899, the United States conducted its first census of Puerto Rico finding that the population of Macaná barrio was 1,025.[6]

gollark: I think there's a rule about defacing the environment, but that means it's fine to mine out everything under y=40 or so because nobody looks there.
gollark: It might be annoying to route around claims. But I think you could do it if they also had a block scanner (or a few did) or pickaxes.
gollark: With some Wojbie2-style setup to attain fire aspect books it would probably be possible to get more lasers than that, and the bot could also supervise the turtles so no human input is needed.
gollark: Assuming that that allows me to do one chunk per 15 seconds (linear speedup), it'd only take 130 days of turtle runtime.
gollark: If I spent a lot of krist on lasers I could plausibly get 128 or so, enough to cover half a chunk at once.
