====== CoalGov ======

CoalGov is a server-side Paper/Bukkit plugin for a vanilla-client Minecraft server. It adds a coal-backed economy, land ownership, mining permits, protected government land, regulated coal mining, claim marker blocks, polygon claim selection, and a resource market inside a walled coal basin.

The premise is simple: players live inside a walled coal basin where land ownership, mining rights, and political status are controlled by a coal-backed government.

===== What Players Can Do =====

  * Deposit coal items and coal blocks into a coal-backed balance.
  * Use Coal Cents for transactions smaller than 1 coal.
  * Withdraw whole-coal amounts back into coal items.
  * Pay other players in coal or Coal Cents.
  * Buy homestead or industrial land claims.
  * Receive one small starter homestead claim for free.
  * Draw polygon claims with a claim wand.
  * See claim boundaries with marker blocks and particles.
  * Sell land back to the Ministry at appraised value.
  * Trade appraised resources through a vanilla inventory market.
  * Inspect land and claim status at their location.
  * Buy mining permits for government-designated mining concessions.
  * Mine coal legally when their land or permit status allows it.

===== Server Compatibility =====

CoalGov is a Paper plugin, not a client mod. Players use unmodified vanilla Minecraft clients. The server must run Paper or another Bukkit-compatible server implementation.
