A group of Circassian friends were aware of the existence of EarthMC, but disturbed by the fact that historical Circassia was always owned by randoms who did not even know what Circassia is. There was nothing they could do, so they moved on. Once they learned that the map has been reset, they planned to join and build Circassia. Thus the town is modeled after the historical country of Circassia and was founded (in [[Terra Nostra]]) by a group of Circassian friends to build their homeland in the game, though over time members of other ethnicities also joined the town. | A group of Circassian friends were aware of the existence of EarthMC, but disturbed by the fact that historical Circassia was always owned by randoms who did not even know what Circassia is.

The founders, including Patli and | The founders, including Patli and Bjedugh, initially intended to build the town near the Kuban River near the IRL Adygea region. However, this territory was already occupied by a hostile, Tsarist nationalist town. Refusing to interact with the hostile/fascist neighbors, the founders decided to change their strategy and chose the Taman peninsula as a possible location. Lacking the gold to establish a new town, Patli contacted leaders from the nations of Georgia and Iberia, assuming both of them to be led by IRL Georgians, who were the only other Caucasians in the game at the time. The leaders of the town of Georgia were unresponsive. Iberia responded positively and invited him to their territory. The founders Patli and Bjedugh received a plot in the Iberian town of Venakhi, located in Azerbaijan, where they built a temporary embassy and received enchanted diamond gear to start them off. | ||
The founders collected gold through daily server voting and mining. Eventually others like Lip finally joined and helped. Deals between nations at the time placed the entire North Caucasus under the claim of the Soviet Union, so the founders negotiated with the central Soviet leadership in Moscow and agreed to establish their town under the Soviet Union temporarily. To avoid detection in the map, Patli and Lip swam underwater across the entire Black Sea from the coast of Georgia to the Taman Peninsula. PvP hunters targeting new players attacked the group during the journey, but they escaped. They passed the small town of VigNation along the route, which they liked for its simple architecture. | The founders collected gold through daily server voting and mining.

The town instantly joined the Soviet Union and developed basic infrastructure, including houses and a government building built by Bjedugh and Patli, as well as an underground cave base settled by Lip. Over time, political conflicts with the residents of the Tsarist town caused the Circassian members to leave the Soviet Discord server. | ||
During this era, the Byzantine Empire established a neighboring outpost named Colchis next to Circassia, with the motto "Colonists Needed!", implying future expansion. Circassia sided with the Turks, who were at war with the Byzantine Empire, and the political friction resulted in a cold war between Circassia and Colchis, though no known instance of direct combat occurred. The Byzantine Empire eventually abandoned Colchis, and Circassia annexed the ruined outpost. Circassia also annexed the friendly town of VigNation after its owner became inactive, and preserved its builds. During this time, many others joined the town, including members such as Tosun. | During this era, the Byzantine Empire established a neighboring outpost named Colchis next to Circassia, with the motto "Colonists Needed!", implying future expansion.
