New Earth
New Earth is a stream project started on 26th July 2020, where a 1:4000 scale map of the Earth is opened up in sections to the public to build, both on and off of stream.
The map is pre-made with the countries and borders (depicted with cobblestone blocks) laid out, and users are allowed to build down a little and up to around 40 blocks from sea level.
The builds can be viewed by joining the server (Instructions found here) and via the Dynmap here. You can show the regions by turning on the "WorldGuard" layers found on the left.
This is the first stream to be played on the 1.16.1 game version.
