Convert one Minecraft world to square kilometers

Explanation

To convert one Minecraft world to square kilometers all we need is to know the conversion factor and we are done. Luckily, we can compute that factor using the units' definitions below.

The result is that there are 3600000000 square kilometers in 1 Minecraft world.

Formula

1 Minecraft world = 3600000000 km²

Minecraft worlds

dimension	area

Minecraft is a sandbox construction video game. It takes place in a 3D world made of blocks that can be mined to gather resources and build complex structures.

Each of these block has coordinates between -30000000 and +30000000 on the X and Y axis^[source] (we ignore the Z axis because we are only interested in the area, not the volume of the world). For the purpose of this converter, we also make the assumption that a block is a cube whose edges are one meter long. The resulting area is more than 7 times the surface of the Earth.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a bit of exploring to do.
