1:1 scale of Denmark in Minecraft blown up by players

Last week the Danish government revealed its 1:1 scale replica of Denmark in Minecraft, the map was later put online to let curious players explore the country. However, things started going wrong pretty quickly when gamers were joining servers just to blow up Danish towns and rebuild American flags and tanks on top of the rubble.
Chris Hammeken, Chief Press Officer at the Danish GeoData Agency, gave a statement to state media outlet, DR (translated by The Register): “Several large Danish towns have been levelled to the ground and a lot of new things have been built all over the place. We don’t have a complete overview yet, but we’ll probably choose to reconstruct Copenhagen and the other cities.”

The Danish government are good sports about it though.

cont…”We consider that as a nature of playing Minecraft - elements are broken down and new are being created.Therefore we will not reboot the demonstration of Denmark in Minecraft. But occasionally we will rebuild minor areas if buildings are removed and nothing new is being created. We are very happy to see so many players around the world creating fancy nice things and have fun.”
