Nostra:The Nubian Army
- This page applies to the Nubian Army of Terra Nostra, and not of worlds before that.
The Nubian Army, or TNA, is the official military force of Nubia and the Fourth Nubian Empire. The Army was founded on May 2, 2026 by FORDaLoZ, Nubia's incumbent Minister of Defence, as an anti-hunter force dedicated to protecting the nation and its allies from hostile players. The Nubian Army participates in Dedicated Deterrence Missions (DDMs), aimed to deter known hunters from targeting the empire or its nations in PvP.

History
Headquarters
Fort Ox
From its creation on the 2nd of May, 2026 to its transfer in mayorship upon the purchase of Songhai on 11th of August, 2026, Fort Ox served as the logistical heart of The Nubian Army, home to two military armouries, an xp farm for mending armour, and a meeting room, notably only used once in the towns history.
New Napata
Upon the purchase of the Kingdom of Songhai by FORDaLoZ on 11th of August, 2026, New Napata served as the new operations hub of The Nubian Army, home to a large armoury, gearing stations and a storage area with all the necessary combat equipment. New Napata remains as the current headquarters of the Army.
Battles and Conflicts
Deterrence Mission
On 3rd May, 2026, soldiers FORDaLoZ, Acerse and felixsgt, accompanied by ally TTV_OilTanker (now 180tar) participated in a mission dedicated to deterring two known hunters, CrazyDude5 and DianaMommy, from hunting Nubian citizens. In the fight, FORDaLoZ fought against DianaMommy's mace, bearing little to no damage as DianaMommy consistently missed their hits. Acerse, felixsgt and TTV_OilTanker fought against CrazyDude5, overpowering him with the limited amount of gear they had been provided by the newly founded Nubian Army. Despite a significant lack of resources, Nubia prevailed in its first dedicated deterrence mission (DDM), as the hunters fled the capital (Napata), leaving Nubia as the victor of the battle.
Skirmish of Hershey
On 10th May, 2026, higherups FORDaLoZ and Acerse were sent to protect the town of Hershey, when Italian hunters threatened Nubian residents by encouraging them to leave the safety of the town borders. Unbeknownst to the Nubians, a group of invisible mercenaries lurked nearby. Soon after the Nubians engaged the Italian hunters, including now Emperor of Palestine, Johnzinnnn, dozens of invisible netherite PvPers appeared, attacking FORDaLoZ and Acerse at once. Overwhelmed by numbers, Nubia sought a tactical retreat, with Acerse successfully escaping and FORDaLoZ dying in the process due to 4 netherite players on him at once.
Battle of Phoenix
On 16th May, 2026, the Army met its largest battle effort yet at the Arizonan town of Phoenix. In an attempt to protect a streamer, DekuFullCowling, from Mexican hunters as he constructed a wall for charity, FORDaLoZ orchestrated an unprecedented military force, which included himself, soldiers Acerse, felixsgt, casperkul and Omariuss (now King of Arabia), as well as 15 allies alongside them. The Mexican hunters demonstrated disorganised battle efforts and desperate tactics. Despite the massive manpower of Nubia, the Mexican hunters called upon foreign hunters to join the battle, with over 20 unknown hunters appearing in the fight. With the reason for Nubia's defence efforts unknown, chaos erupted across the desert. In this battle, there were an estimated 15 enemy deaths, and 8 deaths amongst the Nubian allies. Nubia retreated, but the battle did not end in defeat. DekuFullCowling completed his wall, and ended his stream for charity knowing that he had the full support of the Nubian Army.
Battle of SakharaFort
On 18 July, 2026, the Army was notified by Nubia's ally, Arabia, that members of the nation Red Sea were harassing Arabian citizens at the town of SakharaFort. Within minutes, FORDaLoZ drafted the only available soldiers: Acerse and notmusa_1, alongside himself and 3 allies, to protect the town, but this proved to be a force too small to combat the hunters they would face. Upon the eruption of the battle, 8 players - diamond and netherite, maces and swords - appeared on the dense battlefield between SakharaFort and the Red Sea town of PixTown. The Nubian soldiers put up an impressive fight, surviving for 20 minutes and dealing massive blows of damage to the opposing hunters, who turned out to be mercenaries of various nations who had been gathered to help the Red Sea. This was not a surprise, as the Emperor of the Red Sea, Mrdipi, was well-known by Nubians to be an illegitimate ruler who frequently bribed players to have them join his nation. Despite Nubia's battle efforts, both FORDaLoZ and Acerse succumbed to mace attacks by the enemy, and the remaining Nubian forces retreated without the support of their strongest combatants. FORDaLoZ never joined a battle with too little soldiers again.
Battle of New Napata
On 20th August, 2026, an EMC Mafia member named elpapito7 placed a trap town four chunks away from Songhai's capital, New Napata, in an attempt to access the heavily restricted land outside of the town to PvP. Later in the day, a large number of Mafia members and their allies gathered outside of New Napata to provoke a fight. The Nubian Army chose to respond, gathering all active soldiers and all available allies in an unprecedented force aimed to help in the conflict. The following people were involved:
