About this conversion
Mojang's official Minecraft Wiki defines 1 block as 1 cubic meter, chunks as 16x16-block columns, Nether travel at an 8:1 ratio to the Overworld and the world border at X/Z plus or minus 29,999,984 blocks (about 30000km from spawn), so one world-border half equals 1,875,000 chunks.
These figures come from minecraft.wiki (Coordinates, Chunk and World border pages). 1 chunk = 16 blocks, 1 Nether block = 8 Overworld blocks, making this converter a handy reference for nether-highway math, mega-base planning and everyday curiosity.
Units supported: Kilometers, miles, blocks, Nether blocks, chunks and world-border halves (30000km).
Source note: Scale from official Minecraft Wiki — 1 block = 1 cubic meter, chunk 16x16 blocks, world border +-29,999,984 blocks.
