Swez is a former player on the Minecraft geopolitical server EarthMC, active periodically since the Classic Era (2017). Known for their involvement in Balkan politics, Swez has played a variety of roles across different iterations of the server: Classic, Nova, and Aurora.
Swez joined EarthMC in mid-2017, initially settling in the Balkan region. They became known for diplomatic activity, often mediating between small Balkan towns during frequent territorial disputes. Swez briefly served as a council member of the early Yugoslavia nation project, before breaking away to establish independent settlements.
Controversies
During the late Nova Era, Swez was accused of involvement in a small-scale item duplication scandal in the Balkans. Several chests in Kotor were discovered to contain unusually large quantities of gold blocks, far exceeding what the city’s economy could have reasonably produced. Opponents claimed Swez either directly participated in or knowingly benefited from duped items funneled into Montenegro by allied towns. Supporters argued that Swez was unaware of their origins and that many leaders across EarthMC had unknowingly accepted duped goods at the time. The allegations never resulted in an official ban, but the incident damaged Swez’s reputation. Despite the controversy, Swez retained political influence and continued serving as Montenegro’s last President until the nation’s dissolution.
In late 2019, it was later discovered that the exploit in question was connected to a dupe originally showcased by SalC1, which had been replicated and spread across EarthMC. Players placed large amounts of the duplicated items around the map, some of which made their way into Montenegro’s national vaults and Kotor’s storage, implicating Swez by association.
Aftermath
Following the scandal, Swez quietly changed his Minecraft username and adopted a lower profile on EarthMC. While he continued to log in occasionally, he avoided major political office for a time and distanced himself from Balkan leadership disputes.
