# Land Claiming {% hint style="info" %} Land claiming lets players secure areas of the world to protect builds, containers, and interactions. {% endhint %} ### What it does Land Claiming allows you to **protect** your base or public areas (such as player warps) so you don’t have to worry about griefing or theft. ### What you can do with it You can claim land and customize it however you’d like — whether you’re creating a public player warp, building a shop, or protecting your new home. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
