An Idea
The idea for a theme park initially began in early 2017, when Aaron Carothers, inspired by Walt Disney's theme park Disneyland, was thinking of a way to digitally construct his very own park. It originally was going to be a virtual-reality application which would allow visitors to walk around a digital park and meet their favorite characters. Due to the technical complications of VR, this idea was transferred to a made-from-scratch first-person video game which would feature the same idea, but would also include actual rides that visitors could ride on. But, this would take several months, if not years, of work, and would have had several technical issues.

The Solution
One day, an idea hit Aaron: Minecraft; the game that he had played for years and had accomplished impressive feats in construction and creativity. Why not use this game as the framework for the park. And so, the park began to be constructed, but not on the PC as it is today. It was originally built on the Xbox 360 edition of the game, and wasn't really that serious of a project, but more of a fun little hobby. It wasn't long after this that Aaron began looking into the PC version and its capabilities of including custom audio and modding to further customize the in-game world. This opened the doors to new ideas and possibilities, and so he decided to start over once again.

Construction Begins
It was March 30th, 2017, when the construction of AaronLand's Main Street officially began. It was simply an exact replica of the Main Street built on the Xbox 360 version. Soon after this was established, Aaron quickly needed to begin construction on some sort of attraction for the park. Thus began the creation of The Haunted Mansion, now a classic ride that set the precedent for every other ride after it and showed the true capabilities of Minecraft PC's custom audio and modding capabilities. Aaron's dream of a digital Disneyland was coming true.

Further Additions and the Future
During and after the construction of The Haunted Mansion, Aaron needed to add a lot more buildings and attractions to really make his park stand out. One early building was the Aaron Carothers Pictures Studio, which is currently where Aaron's in-game character (TheAaronShows) works on plans for the park. Several additions, details, and small adjustments were made, and are still continuing to be made. According to Aaron, there is still a lot that needs to be done.
