Nostra:Circassia: Difference between revisions

|leader1 = Patli

Circassia was first founded as a town. What is now the capital of Circassia, Anapa, was the original town; once Circassia achieved the status of a multi-town sub-nation, it was renamed from Circassia to Anapa. 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 nation 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. During their swim, they managed to avoid PvP hunters targeting new players. They passed the small town of VigNation along the route, which they liked for its simple architecture.

The town named "Circassia" was established on the 16th of June 2026 by Patli, and Lip was the first other member. 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's hostile attitude towards the Circassians and genocide denials caused the Circassian members to leave the Soviet Discord server, while still staying in the Soviet Union.

While collecting wood, a town member was ambushed by hostile players using invisibility potions and bows. Assuming the enemy to be Georgians, town mayor Patli decided to mount a counter-offensive to take revenge and fight for their nation. Despite not being a good PVPer, he decided to try his luck and purchased some cheap combat gear and potions and started patrolling the Caucasus. Tracking a Georgian target in a Georgian outpost located in southern Azerbaijan, he launched an attack. The operation was a success; yielding three kills.

Circassian players established positive relations with the newly formed Crimean Khanate. The Khanate was founded by a Turkish player who rior to founding the Khanate had established the town of Sochi, spending over 1700 gold for claims. He subsequently gave the town to a Turkish player to cover a 1500 gold debt from earlier. The investor intended to flip the town for profit, setting the price at 2000 gold. On August 24, following negotiations, Patli acquired Sochi for 850 gold. This purchase was an economic win, as manually claiming the region would have cost Circassia over 1700 gold.

Following the acquisition on August 24, Sochi was immediately renamed to "Tuapse-Circassia". Simultaneously, the original town of Circassia was renamed to "Anapa-Circassia". This restructuring transitioned Circassia from a single town into a multi-town entity. The mayorship of Tuapse was given to a major Anapa player by Patli.

On August 25, Circassia officially achieved sub-nation status within the Kingdom of Iberia, while mayor Patli was declared the Grand Prince of Circassia. This political elevation was formalized through a treaty:
