Aurora:Egypt: Difference between revisions

==History==

The Terra Aurora server was opened to Premium Players on May 1 and plans were made by the former [[Nova:Indochina|Indochinese]] to settle in Egypt. Another group that was interested in settling in Egypt was the [[Nova:Ancient_Egypt|Ancient Egyptians]] who had experience in the region throughout the Terra Nova server.

====Completion of the Suez Canal====

Once Giza (now known as [[Aurora:Suez|Suez]] was under Egyptian control, construction continued and the canal was officially opened to public usage on May 7. However, further plans to embellish the canal were planned for the future.

The Premium access to Terra Aurora ended on May 8 and the server was scheduled to be opened to the public on May 13 2022. Egypt had prepared for the public release with last minute claims and mining trips.

==== [[Sinai Crisis]] ====

20 August 2022 marked the end of this period, on this day [[Fluxeeh]], notable for being the King of Terra Nova [[Indochina (Nova)|Indochina]], one of the Founders of the [[Rajasa Pact]], and the Founder and First King of Egypt, announced his abdication and departure from EarthMC. Replacing him was [[Aurora:Lumpeeh|Lumpeeh]], formerly the Mayor of Mecca and a long-time player on Terra Nova [[Indochina (Nova)|Indochina]].

After Lumpeeh had given Mecca to [[Iseeeh]] (a member of the Egyptian Royal Family), he moved to Cairo where the nation was passed over to Lumpeeh and he was set up to be the new and Second King of Egypt. Lumpeeh faced multiple immediate issues, these were: rampant inactivity, a decline in towns and claimed chunks, a non-existent nation bonus, Israeli expansion into Egypt, Egyptian towns leaving to join other nations, and other attempts from Arabia to recruit Egyptian towns. Using his experience from Terra Nova, decided that the best way to get Egypt out of the decline was through restoring confidence within the nation, he hoped to do this through Cairo with combined recruiting, expanding, and building. Along with this was the introduction of daily logs, which functioned as a diary/news channel for daily updates in Cairo, currently it has over 64 posts detailing Cairo’s growth and build-up from 20 August 2022 to now.

The Israeli towns within Egypt slowly began to fall one by one, most notable was the fall of Israeli Alexandria and the restoration of Egyptian Alexandria under Neffeeh, marking the end of Israeli presence and control over the Nile Delta. During this time, the Caliphate was formed, an alliance between Egypt and [[Turkey (Aurora)|Turkey]], this was the first diplomatic action taken under Lumpeeh since August. However, the policy of isolationism and the heavy emphasis on reversing the decline proved to be highly effective, Egypt was not entangled with outside affairs meaning that it could primarily focus on resolving its internal issues which it was able to do, by now Egypt had completely reversed its decline. The downside to this is that Egypt was isolated in the region, combined with the older generation of nations within the region falling or going inactive made this situation far more drastic, though this was resolved in late January. Egypt’s overall stats had significantly shifted since August and surpassed pre-decline Egypt, by mid-January Egypt had achieved over two thousand claimed chunks, around one hundred and forty residents, and had twenty-five towns, a tremendous transformation from a declining nation to an actively growing nation.

Following the growth efforts taking place in the Nile Delta, the Egyptian-occupied Libyan coast was also beginning to grow. After [[StoffeH]], who originally settled in the Caribbean, and who was a longtime friend of Neffeeh, the original owner of the town of Benghazi, managed to gain ownership over the town. Neffeeh left to create the town of Alexandria. With help from the government, the two towns that were situated on the coast, Benghazi and Tobruk, began to grow.

During mid-November, the neighboring nation to the south-west, Chad, had begun an operation to unite the Libyan Coast under their nation. Efforts were being made to purchase the towns on the coast, including Benghazi. After multiple denied attempts, the efforts were going on for weeks. To take matters into their own hands, [[StoffeH]] had agreed with the purchase of the town, except Chad did not receive the town.  

A series of operations on hunting and killing Chadian citizens and sandminers were carried out in mid-January.
