Let’s dive into the simple steps of creating an empty map in Minecraft, ensuring you won’t get lost while building your dream world.

Steps to Create Your Empty Map

Creating an empty map in Minecraft is straightforward. You need two main ingredients: paper and a crafting table. First, gather sugarcane from around the world. These green plants grow near water. You’ll need at least nine pieces of sugarcane, as each piece can be turned into paper.

Once you have your sugarcane, head over to your crafting table. Place three pieces of sugarcane across a row to craft paper. You’ll need to make this recipe three times to get the nine pieces of paper necessary for an empty map. Then, in the crafting table, arrange the nine papers in all slots to create your empty map. That’s it! You’re ready to explore!
