	Worlds are split into three [[Minecraft:dimension]]s, which are in turn composed of [[Minecraft:block]]s of various sizes, usually either cubic or composed of one or more cuboids, or of flat plane images, all of which are arranged in [[Minecraft:wikipedia:Cubic honeycomb\|a Euclidean grid]]. [[Minecraft:Fluid]]s, [[Minecraft:entities]] and [[Minecraft:particles]] also exist within these worlds, and certain locations of the world can possess [[Minecraft:biome]]s and different levels of [[Minecraft:light]]. Blocks and entities can possess other attributes such as [[Minecraft:item]]s, [[Minecraft:effect]]s and, by extension, [[Minecraft:enchantment]]s. The terrain of world is [[Minecraft:World generation\|procedurally generated]] before [[Minecraft:~~players~~]] can modify blocks and entities within. Various [[Minecraft:structure]]s and [[Minecraft:~~features~~]] can also generate inside worlds, sometimes containing [[Minecraft:chest]]s with [[Minecraft:chest loot\|loot]] inside.
