Chat records dating back to 2022 confirm that the initial concept for a Circassian nation in the EarthMC Minecraft server was discussed by players of Circassian origin. However, these early plans were never fully realized. For the most part, historical Circassian territories on the server were consistently occupied by random players with no connection to Circassia, a fact known to players who would go on to create the Circassian subnation years later. Fragmented archive data from older server iterations confirms that a town named "Circassia" did briefly exist at one point. However, this early settlement played no significant geopolitical role, and its ultimate fate remains unrecorded. | Chat records dating back to 2022 confirm that the initial concept for a Circassian nation in the EarthMC Minecraft server was discussed by players of Circassian origin.

In 2025, the concept of establishing a legitimate Circassian nation was revived, however at the time they considered the project practically impossible to execute, viewing it as a dream. Everything changed with the launch of the Terra Nostra 2026 iteration, as once the news broke that the map has been reset, the Circassians planned to join and build Circassia. The Circassians logged in at May 2026 and started working for the town of Circassia, which would later evolve into a large autonomous principality. | In 2024 and 2025, the concept of establishing a legitimate Circassian nation was revived, however at the time they considered the project practically impossible to execute, viewing it as a dream.

In a diplomatic move, Circassia formalized a friendship treaty with the Crimean Khanate, a sub-nation of Ukraine. The treaty was drafted after the Grand Prince of Circassia and the Khan of Crimea held a discussion. This treaty solidified their positive relationship and committed both entities to long-term peace and collaboration on common regional projects. Meanwhile, military vigilance remained a high priority on the eastern borders. When a Georgian scout was discovered snooping around the Circassian towns of Terek and Khabez, Hatuqay eliminated the trespasser, maintaining the security of the Kabardia expansion. The scout dropped stacks of TNT, which turned out to be purchased from Hatuqay himself earlier. Hatuqay sold the TNT back to the scout, thus managing to sell the same TNT twice. | In a diplomatic move, Circassia formalized a friendship treaty with the Crimean Khanate, a sub-nation of Ukraine.

Regional stability was temporarily disrupted when a player founded a new town in Sochi as part of Iberia (not to be confused with the earlier Sochi, now known as Tuapse). When Circassian leadership informed him that he was encroaching on their territorial claims, the player responded agressively. | Regional stability was temporarily disrupted when a player founded a new town in Sochi as part of Iberia (not to be confused with the earlier Sochi, now known as Tuapse). When Circassian leadership informed him that he was encroaching on their territorial claims, the player responded agressively. Citizens ambushed and killed the player, with the mayor delivering the final blow. Following his defeat, the player defected to the enemy faction of Georgia. The town remained as part of Georgia, making it the closest Georgian town to Circassia and a way for Georgian players to teleport near Circassian territories easily; which later proved to be costly when some Circassian residents were killed by Georgian hunters while gathering resources. It also served as a way to claimblock (prevent Circassia from expanding in that direction). | ||

Both sides had their own arguments: the Circassians argued that they paid for half of the town's cost and are natives to the region, thus the town must belong to them; while the mayor of Suayp argued that he paid half the price and bought it fair and square, thus a cold war started between Circassia and the town of Suayp, with trolls and bitter exchanges happening at the town border. To quarantine the capital from the settlement of Suayp, construction began on a giant castle wall. This barrier was designed to eventually encircle the entirety of Anapa-Circassia; in response, the castle walls and the national flags were covered in dirt by the mayor of Suayp. This led to a series of disputes and prank wars between the two factions, which were primarily conducted through written signs placed along the territorial divide. | Both sides had their own arguments: the Circassians argued that they paid for half of the town's cost and are natives to the region, thus the town must belong to them; while the mayor of Suayp argued that he paid half the price and bought it fair and square, thus a cold war started between Circassia and the town of Suayp, with trolls and bitter exchanges happening at the town border.

After acquiring large quantities of necessary materials, construction officially began on a giant national mosque in Anapa. The grand structure was formally named the [[:en:Qizbech_Tughuzhuqo|Tughuzhuqo Qizbech]] Mosque, honoring the historical Circassian hero. Despite the cold war, the mayor of Suayp respected the mosque construction and did not raid its building materials despite having the chance to do so. | After acquiring large quantities of necessary materials including quartz purchased from [[Nostra:Cascavel|Cascavel]], construction officially began on a giant national mosque in Anapa.
