Nova:The Despotian Dynasty

Prologe

This is a „mostly autobiography“ by the members of the Despotian Dynasty on EMC. It will summ up the history of the town with which it all started. It will sum up the history oft he Despotians from their own perspective.

The start of the Despotian Dynasty

On the 11th November of 2020 Java_Wolf(back then known as Fordinaboy) joined the server for the first time with lLori. They wanted to create a nation together in Russia, right there where Despot and Komi has been created at some point in the future. On that day also JEDTEK joined them. On the first days the three Despotians were mainly raiding post Severny towns that have fallen recently in the region. Two days after joining (13th November) they finally had enough gold to create a town, creatinng Despot in a valley east from the Ural Mountains.

The pre nation era

Once the town was created Alphawolfkiba and _DaHofa_ joined in the town too. All were councellors in Despot and sharing their stuff in a town storage. These were the ones we refere to as the Despotians. Their main goal was back then to build a series of automatic farms to sell those goods. The honey and bee marked back then became a important export of Despot. Thats when new problems arised. They had to start a shop at a nation spawn. The Tzar of Severny back then offered them a shop plot if they joined Severny, so they did. Thats when the socalled Severny Era for Despot started.

Severny was not at all know for shops with having no other active shop at that point so the Despotians even considered to leave at some point but remained. The Tzar retired a few days after the join of Despot into it’s nation. Thats when Java_Wolf took the chance and contacted the new Tzar called Swrhitzy introducing himself and asking about doing something with the shops area, nothing has been ever done about those. Swrhitzy offered Java_Wolf a position in the Northern Entente parlament. Java_Wolf accepted getting in touch with politics for the first time. While beeing in Severny and not doing big business a lot of the Despotians lost interest and left server. Llori was the first who left. Very soon the Northern Entente was resolved. Thats when Swrhitzy started an application phase for the duma elections. Where Java participated, and got the position as Minister of Defense instantly due to a lack of applicants for that position probably. This position made Java technically the second most powerfull person in Severny while literally just starting off on the server. He didn’t even realize at that point. It is thanks to Swrhitzy that Java grew to that size he is today on EMC kinda teaching him and explaining stuff.

The Pre Komi Era

At that point everybody from the Despotians stopped playing EMC leaving Java as Mayor alone on the server. For a full month he only joined to vote. Then he started to try and get to know new people in EMC to have fun again playing. He made a good relation with the towns in his area and helped Severny in recruiting and growing. Then the Iceroads connecting Despot to the rest of the towns was built. Thats the time he actually got to know the Minister of Transport and Infrastructure in Severny for the very first time. The fact he did not even know that Minister until then shows, how poorly Java used his power until that point. But thats when he really started to engage in in nation politics finally. One town called Gondolin was especially important at the time for Despot. So Java got in good contact with the founders of Gondolin called TOKIMEARI and MESHI. They have started playing a lot together and they wanted to create their own nation too, like the Despotians did in the beginning. So Java had the Idea to fund and create a nation together. So they asked for Swrhitzy‘s permission to create the nation, still belonging to the supernation of Severny. The nation „Republic_of_Komi“ was created by Java_Wolf, TOKIMEARI, MESHI.

The Komi Era

Java has now started to focus on trade and finally had a place to sell his goods. Normally in Severny member nations were treated like other towns, completly surpressed by Severny. This was different in Komi as it’s leader was the Defense Minister of Severny. This was the first step in moving away from dominating other nations and giving them more rights. Swrhitzy agreed to this important step. When starting the nation the three founders of Komi agreed to be equal leaders. It became very fast clear tho that they had absolutly no rights in Severny just Java as beeing trusted by the Tzar with a high rank. Thats why the other two essecially rushed Java to leave Severny asap. But Swrhitzy cleverly timed declared Java his Heir as Tzar of Severny. Thats why Komi din‘t leave Severny in the end. A lot changed when MESHI has lost his MC Account and essecially made the other two Leaders of Komi quit EMC, leaving Java_Wolf alone once again.

The Presidential Era/Era of Diplomatic relations

When Java was left alone again he started to form diplomatic relations with whom he could. Thats how he got in touch with a new nearby formed nation called Golden Horde that became very significant in future. He made an Alliance with them back when they did not even have any towns. It was a Military and Trade Alliance that he kinda did secretly behind the back of Severny in the name of Komi. As he did not fully understand how a Supernation works back then. Then Russian Federation was formed uniting all Russian Nations as a big Alliance. In this Alliance there was a President elected with a legislative period of 2 months leading the nations with the 3 big nation leaders: PRR, RE and Severny. Java participated in the presidential elections and won. As Julien (former PRR Leader) once said about Java’s presidency: „He is actually doing stuff. I kinda expected him to do nothing but he does, I am glad that he does.“ I guess thats a positive-ish comment on his presidency. Thats also the time Swrhitzy retired from Tzarship. Cause of Java beeing in a different nation now, he split the Tzarship and declared SovietSpyGD(former Minister of Infrastructure) and Java_Wolf(Former Minister of Defense joined Leaders of the Supernation. With them beeing nation leaders of Severny and Komi. Then Swrhitzy became Arch-Bishop in the Catholic Chruch of EMC leaving all politics behind him.

Things happening here in between

Someday around that time I got first in touch with yunamesa, the Leader of a new turkish nation that was growing extremly fast neigbouring us and I’d even say growing aggressively. We first got in touch with her making a trade and no attack pact with Komi.

They later always remained independent from supernations, and we helped her out a lot in politics. There was very fast a good relationship between the two nations beeing both next to each other and beeing inronically called „Golden Horde“ and „Golden Federation“  both having „Golden“ in the name. I would say GH and GF have supported each other a lot in the past. Forming a huge power together I’d even say. I mean of course we were independent from each other and sure did not look to outsiders like it but we were working together a lot.

So Sirta seeing Severny his own nation he created way back in the past, got interested in EarthMC again wanting to be part of these whole developments he stated. This was very important to us, cause of him beeing such a big help to me and Golden Federation as a whole. He even got into the inner coucil of the Golden Federation(which was a huge mistake in the future).

Also Hofa one of the founders of Despot became active again, and getting into the Golden Federation council(highest rank in Golden Federation). He later even overtook a whole membernation in Golden Federation.

The Golden Federation Era

In this split Tzarship, SovietSpyGD was not interested in the politics, so instantly told Java_Wolf to manage everything by himself. He started rebuilding Serverny to it’s former size, which was a ruin at that point, without active people, only few towns etc. So as you see this Tzarship was not split equaly from the beginning. Soviet was just like any other nation leader but with too many rights in that supernation he did not put to use at all. The first thing the Despotians now fully ruling Golden Federation did was making a parlament for the Supernation, giving the nations more rights, not surpressing them anymore like Severny did. Then they rebranded the Imperial „Severny Supernation“ to „Golden Federation“ all valid as Severny accepted it. This was also a very huge formal sign from our part giving the nations an actual voice and rights. Soviet agreed on everything we did, without even discussing it really. Tho he probably higly disliked all this. „Hating politics becoming complicated.“, he once said to us. You see he was until then a Minister in Severny, meaning he was trusted by the „ultimate leader“ and beeing one of the only ones having something to say here. Now everybody got a voice and he lost this ultimate power, until then he was beeing someone who profited from the system till then. We could call it tyranny at this point looking back at Kim’s leadership. Then having so many member nations getting a voice Soviet just lost it and did not really want to be part of this, even tho we grew up to 8 times the size very fast. He never said openly but he showed it in every move he did from them on, by acting against us. He started to get into politics only to get superior rights for Severny, for example in land ownership for Severny. Distrusting everyone and starting smaller conflicts with member nations for territory. Problem was that Swrhitzy made us both Leaders and his equal heirs. So he had same power as me essencially in voting. He started vetoing everything we proposed and asking a lot, cutting Severny off from Golden Federation, for as he said, in case Golden Federation does not work out. It is very ironic that exactly that happened to him. But not because of some relevant reason but exactly cause of his actions. His Leadership was damaging Severny even more, as it wasn’t already damaged enougth. He also was damaging the Golden Federation’s stability, starting conflicts and asking us always to get him loans that we payed in the end for him. It got Komi to 200g in half a week that was kinda gift to him, as he will never pay it back to us. All this because he spent all his gold on some building projects. And the worst part of it was, I was argueing with us for a week, it felt like argueing whole days without making any progress, Java did not even get to play on the server that time, as he was so focussed on him all the time. Wasting time on him. He was clearly damaging everything we built and worked for so we asked him to step down, he even agreed to be a bad Leader, stateing that he did not care at all but wanting to keep his position to abuse his power to build enormous buildings for Severny that were so important to him, that he even would have started a war with member nations. So Java_Wolf was at the brink of just stepping back from his position and abandoning the server. So we decited to throw Severny out off the Golden Federation instead off leaving the server. So we had a council that voted Severny out. There was literally no other solution. Of course this created a lot of grievenses at this point with all the Severny residents. But everybody in the council agreed on what Soviet was doing was just not right at all. Even Hofa seemed pretty pissed at Soviet at this point, and Sirta not beeing able to tell me that kinda saw the whole picture too. So there was Severny, my homeland kind of hating me on the one side and on the other side most of Golden Federation(except Sakha) following me in this. Kinda a dissapointment everyone that really was around nearly my whole playtime on the server beeing against me, but they just did not see the big picture here. Only the Council did really. Sirta was the only one from Severny really remaining on our side. Even Swrhitzy came back to denounce me as his Heir and removed me from Tzarship of Severny himself. I mean they only saw me cutting off Severny as Soviet missinformed them(what else do you expect in a dictatorship), and Soviet along with it, so I don’t blame them. All aiding Soviet now was just a big irony in my eyes. Found it amusing at some points, roney even went back to Severny basically dooming himself in my eyes by Soviets leadership. Thats how I saw it at that point atleast. I mean History has already shown that something like this just does not work out. It was no surprise if you ask me, and I really tried, but was just not worth it in the end. After Severny having left GF we had a lot more gold we spent on the GF itself as mostly wellfare supports to grow our towns and with it making the whole GF profit and stronger.

Post Severny Era

In the post Severny Era beeing loose from Severny as a liability I started focussing at the beginning on supporting and growing our towns and on the ecconomy. We have also been in war with Severny for quite some time and our close allies Golden_Horde(later known as Sibirya) has joined in to support us in this war. Severny mainly got destroyed once we got Severny’s alts banned. SovietSpyGD’s old town Novaya was held by his own alt from falling. Also they had an important town where his brother was alting due to beeing banned on his main account. With those two people beeing gone Severny got inactive and started falling into ruins completly by him self.

End of Russian Federation

Russian Federation was just not working at all. Once Severny has joined Qubec, getting Qubec into the Russian Federation government it literally fell appart.

The start oft he Golden Federation and Horde Monarchy

It turned out that Sirta was payed good amounts of Gold by Qubec and he became loyal to Qubec. He stupidly betrayed us 1 day before he would have gotten payed by 340g from Java_Wolf for some internal loans and stuff. He deleted the Discord and ripped appart Golden Federation Government. Little did he know, he did a huge favour to us. The old government was not working well, so we had the possibilty now to set up a new and working government. Also this opened us huge new possibilities. We merged with Sibirya(former Golden Horde) two days later forming the „Golden Federation and Horde Monarchy“. It was roughly two timest he size oft he Golden Federation.
