The Democratic People's Republic of Cat Hill (DPRCH), also called Cat Hill or Cat Nation, is one of the two principal nations on the Create Server. The DPRCH describes itself as socialist and syndicalist. Its recorded government is a workers' council whose members were told they held equal power and that there was no single leader.[1]
History
Formation
The name Cat Hill appears in public Minecraft chat by 27 August 2026. Early in-game discussion also refers to goods from Cat Hill Winery and the need to trade with other nations, indicating that a territorial and economic identity existed before the surviving council meeting.[2]
The council record begins later on 27 August, when Shiby described a private group as the DPRCH Council and told its participants that they were council members. The early discussion proposed portfolios including labor, national defense, agriculture, internal affairs, propaganda, and foreign affairs. Only some participants responded to proposed assignments. The complete ministry list is therefore treated as a proposal rather than a ratified cabinet.
Government and ideology
The DPRCH's political model combines a leaderless workers' council with socialist and syndicalist language. Industrial labor, collective projects, defensive construction, and material support for members are recurring subjects in council discussion. Proposed offices included a chair, ministers for labor, defense, agriculture, and internal affairs, and secondary posts for propaganda and foreign affairs. No complete appointment record survives.
When TongsXD asked whether a nomadic lifestyle was compatible with citizenship, catgirlfeet replied that contribution would be required to participate in national projects and receive government benefits. Housing support was also offered.[3]
Membership
The server owner's roster identifies catgirlfeet, catnipsmoke, Curb_Y, DevBuiId, MadShib, and BoiOree as Cat Hill members. SockMonkeyyy was an early council member and briefly accepted a commissar role, but left the nation on 29 August. TongsXD is closer to Cat Hill than the Empire but remains politically between the blocs.
Territory and settlements
Cat Hill is the national center and the location of a structure described in public chat as the capitol. The exact border has not been formally surveyed. On 30 August, Spawn Island was described as an autonomous region of the DPRCH.[4] Public Minecraft chat on 31 August states that Jude's base could be seen from the Cat Hill capitol, indicating visual proximity between important sites despite the groups' territorial separation.[5]
Economy and infrastructure
Recorded economic activity includes Cat Hill Winery, food production, mining, and planned industrial works. Council plans listed a mine, manufactorum, cannon factory, bunkers, turrets, housing, power systems, and transport links. These records identify policy goals and do not establish that every listed project was completed.
Defense and security policy
DPRCH members discussed fortifications, artillery, airships, radar, autocannons, and missiles. Participants later said the planned bunker and cannons were defensive. In public Minecraft chat on 31 August, catgirlfeet stated that an unapproved strike on the capital would count as griefing and could result in a ban.[6]
Foreign relations
The DPRCH's principal rival is The Empire. A Draft Non-Aggression Treaty was circulated on 28 August but is not shown as signed. DPRCH discussion combined defensive preparations with repeated statements that open war was not desired. See Cat Hill–Empire Cold War.
