The Persian Empire is a meganation and nation (Persia in game) created by 36hoi originally as a counter to the highly destabilized and broken Crusader States or 2.1NotinPersia.

The Name Persia & Early Days

The second Crusader States made by quarox777 and Tavitsu after the civil war between Hashbrown_922's Saudi Arabia, Edesse, and Israel/Kushan (or named the Crusader_States), which they won, the nation quickly went downhill. For some reason, the nations leadership decided it would be a good idea to change their nation name to Persia, which was quickly proven stupid by the mod team when their nation was "2.1'ed" and renamed to 2.1NotinPersia. This name would stay until the reset of the server.

Due to the nations name being available now, 36hoi bought the nation of Georgia from Dishonesty and moved it to Iran, renaming the nation to Persia. Shortly after, the capital would be moved from this new town to Carmania, 36hoi's first ever town located in the real life location of Kerman, Iran. This town would be the capital of the Persian Empire and around 30 towns at its peak during 2026.

Persia was officially created on the 12th of October 2025, and on that same day, the first denunciation towards 2.1NotinPersia was made, with the liberation of the name Persia from the tyrannical leadership of 2.1NotinPersia stated.

The Dubai Reclaim

Across 2025, multiple war developments were made against 2.1NotinPersia, with the establishment of many different towns around the nation. This included Duckland in Porolissum, and the town Nubia in Dubai. Tavitsu and the 2.1NotinPersia leadership attempted to shield their towns with new shield and claimarm towns around Dubai and Porolissum, but in the process of doing this, Ekrem_Imamson currently on the town next to Dubai, had reclaimed the unclaimed chunks Tavitsu had unclaimed for a new claimarm town to protect Dubai from overclaim.

Kurdistan's Name Change

Although smaller than the previous development against 2.1NotinPersia, Kurdistan, a nation in the town of Rey in Northeastern Iran was created from the old nation of Edesse. Due to this location not being within Kurdistan, the name was changed and 2.1'ed by moderators on the 11th of November 2025. Persia's council member Ekrem_Imamson made a small announcement celebrating this.

Overclaim of Kuwait (Turkey)

Another large chunk stealing had occurred, but this time in the town Turkey, in Kuwait. This town had been a large part of the 2.1NotinPersia and Crusader States nations for a couple years at least, and recently before this had hosted the world cup in its stadium. The town was covertly overclaimed by sniping a town called Ozryn on the gulf coast, and claimarming to the town to overclaim it. The claimarm was unclaimed after the overclaim happened, leaving the town in 3 fragments as you can see below. A total of 72 chunks were overclaimed in the first few days of overclaiming the town, and thousands of gold worth of loot was discovered in overclaimed parts of the town.

After a few days more of overclaiming, the town was given to a notorious player called KIDESPIAO, where he did nothing but recruit for the town to stop 36hoi from overclaiming it. He would go on to own Dubai as well for free, showing the inactivity of the leadership of 2.1NotinPersia to depend on an external active player.

Kushan Overclaim

After the sniping of a town called Balkan south of the Kushan capital Porolissum, an overclaim was performed by 36hoi on the Kushan museum in that town, holding large amounts of artifacts and sentimental items to Kushan's history and Tavitsu. All these items were taken by 36hoi in the overclaim and most were either distributed back to their rightful owners, or sent to be stored in museums and archives around EMC including the Museum of Kerman at Persia itself, the Persian Museum in Meroe, Nubia, and the Caspian Archives in Orthinia_Eschate, Nubia.

After 36hoi retrieved the crown of Kushan stored in the museum, he proclaimed himself the next king of Kushan succeeding Tavitsu.

Sniping of Khorsan and Other Towns

During all these major war developments through 2025 and 2026, many towns were sniped and incorporated into the Persian Empire including Palmyra, Arubium, Khorsan, Spain, Trumpville, Sargot, and Mecca etc., along with dozens of 2.1NotinPersia towns being deleted and sniped by other nations, including Assyria, Babylon, and Nubia.

On the 22nd of December, a large town once used in war against 36hoi's original nation, Aurora:Uzbekistan was sniped, Khorsan. This town was owned by Ovoud, a once active and large player in Tavitsu's Persian Empire and the Crusader States.

Persian Empire Flag

On the 22nd of December 2025, the Persian Empire's council voted on a flag for the Empire, and the flag was decided to be this flag below, used throughout Persia's history until the Nostra reset:

Further Breakdown of 2.1NotinPersia

As 2.1NotinPersia continued to be chipped away day by day, mayors from the nation looking for a new, more stable and active nation to join contacted Persia. The towns of Deylam, Manama, and Doha decided to join Persia. This was a large victory, as the towns had originally been the capitals of the nations Bahrain and Qatar, which were mercilessly destroyed by the Crusader States for no other reason than just existing.

After this, on the same day, the 24th of December 2025, the Middle Eastern Pact (MEP) was created, with the nations of ICAP (Assyria) based in Edesse, Babylon, Persia, and the Nubian Middle East. This alliance would work together to further chip away at the tyrannical leadership of 2.1NotinPersia.

Snipe of Spain (town)

Persia continued to work to achieve its goal of destroying 2.1NotinPersia throughout 2026, with the snipe of the town of Spain, originally an Edessan town. With the capture of this town, the MEP now held the majority of towns in the real life Iraq nation boundaries.

Purchase of Brighton

On the 6th of February 2026, the town of Brighton had been purchased for a low price of 200g from the original owners, citing a desire to leave EarthMC. This town was over 400 chunks and a large war development against 2.1NotinPersia, as this town along with the town of Edesse itself were the two largest in Edesse.

Snipe of Sargot

Sargot, otherwise known as Waekfield or Hejaz, had been owned by Hashbrown_922 originally and was once the capital of Saudi Arabia during the Crusader civil war. After, it had been used as a town by Ovoud when named Hejaz, a person referred to before as an active and large person apart of the Crusader States. This town was sniped by FoxClient, a Nubian friend of the Persians, and was originally going to be merged into Ekrem_Imamson's town of Mecca, but instead it was left as its own town. Another large town of the Crusaders had been captured, and they were becoming weaker day by day.

Creation of the Persian Empire Meganation

Due to 36hoi's many nations owned around the world, he thought that maybe they could be incorporated into one meganation, the Persian Empire. The first members of this meganation were Persia, Suomi, Araucania, and Umayyad. The image of the announcement made establishing this meganation is below. After this meganation was formed, the Persian Empire had dozens of towns within it. A few weeks later, Khroma joined the Persian Empire as well, and Araucania left as it was sold to Sulawesi.

The Last Days Before Reset

In the last month before Aurora's shutdown, on the 28th of March the nation of Umayyad in Ozryn, Kuwait was renamed to Kuwait thanks to a donation of 256 gold by Dishonesty. On the same day, a victory against 2.1NotinPersia was declared, with the exploding of some of their prized world cup stadium in Kuwait. The museum of Kerman was opened on the 31st of March, and the Persian museum in Meroe, Nubia was constructed by Ekrem_Imamson and opened on the 12th of April. After this, the Persian Empire slept, and the reset saw the archive of all its history.
