In October 2024, AdrianHES re-founded old Albany in the western Hudson Valley region, approximately 20 chunks west of its original location. This marked the beginning of the Albanite return. The land, currently known as [[Mandatory Albany]], is now seen as the cultural epicenter of the Albanite people, simultaneously existing alongside other cities controlled by them. According to its founding policies, anyone who can claim Albanite heritage by proving they were once members of /t Albany (on either Nova or Aurora) are eligible for free citizenship in Mandatory Albany.

Mandatory Albany is currently a client of Vermont, its capital being the City of [[Old Albany]]. It is currently controlled by AdrianHES, as the head of a militant vanguard organization known as the [[Combatants for the Liberation of Albany and Quebec]] (CL-AQ), an Albanite-Quebecois liberation army.

In addition to these beliefs, other cultural traits of Albanites include a practical approach to architecture and city design. They are fiscally conservative and resourceful, and tend to make use of every asset and town chunk they have, and securely storing any items/gold they don't use. The principle belief of making sure every town chunk has some kind of use was propagated heavily by AdrianHES during the early Albanite history, and is partly the reason why the collective population of the Albanites are so high. Financially, Albanites and other Quebecois also have long-honored rules of making deals and loans amongst themselves to grow collective profit. This internal loaning system was one of the contributing factors for Albany's rapid land expansion in 2021.

== Demographics ==
=== Diaspora ===
While all Albanites are considered part of the collective group, regardless of when residency took place, there are several different internal classifications to distinguish between them. Most of these classifications arose following the Albanite diaspora, when culturally-obedient Albanites founded their own legacies elsewhere in EarthMC. Some of these include:
* '''Novite''' - residency was in Terra Nova.
* '''Borneac''' - residency was only in Terra Aurora.
* '''Hodinite''' - lived within mainland Imperial Quebec; related to royal family.
* '''Morganic''' - lived within mainland Imperial Quebec or Indochina; related to the Volkovs or to Albanite diplomats.
* '''Volkovic''' - any relation to the Volkov Family.
* '''Coddite''' - relation to Albany via colony residency.
* '''Froyic''' - diasporic descendant of former Albany residents.
While most Albanites claim heritage through either Novite or Borneac classifications, the others may also be used as claim to Albanite status if the criteria are met.
=== Allies ===
Within EarthMC, several groups have publicly endorsed the Albanite people and are considered friends of the group. These include (but are not limited to):
* Indochina
* Vermont
=== Antialbanism ===
Several antialbanitic groups and organizations actively target, kill, hunt down, and persecute Albanite players. These groups include:
* [[United States of America|United States]]
* [[New York (Aurora)|New York]]
* [[House of Wintour|Wintour Family]]
* [[Madagascar Sucks|Madagascar]]
