Etymology

In a world full of principals, it is the principle principal who rules them all. He may not be the principal principal, but he is without question the principal of his principles. This unquestionable truth is known as the Principal Principle.

My Review

Lots of underground to take a look at in this one. There are plenty of lava pits and a really large village. You're going to need a lot of diamond swords to protect this one. Finding resources was no sweat and I also discovered several underwater features that instantly made this one of my favorites.

One of the most interesting features of this map is at -335.42.272. It's a dual ravine system where one ravine is basically sitting on top of the second. Digging through the floor of the first ravine is dangerous, so don't forget where you're standing.

Map

The southeast corner is a swamp on the surface, but a vast underground network below. This level is mostly a huge hunk of desert, but luckily the arctic north of the map contains lots of trees and caves.

Images

Just the one image: what you're looking at is the snow-covered floor of the first ravine at the point where it is transected by the lower intersecting ravine. The lava that can be seen in this shot is not the lava at Y=12.
