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 actively 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 era, the Byzantine Empire established a neighboring outpost named Colchis next to Circassia, with the motto "Colonists Needed!", implying future expansion.

The residents of Iberia and Circassia had a friendly relationship at this point. Over time, the leadership of Circassia realized that the Soviet capital of Moscow was simply too far away, and too uninvolved in the region. The town left the Soviet Union on good terms and officially joined Iberia. Iberia was at war with Georgia, thus putting the town of Circassia in war with Iberia as well. Because Circassia is an exclave located far from mainland Iberia, PVP raiders from neighboring Georgian towns frequently attacked the settlement, killing residents around border regions. | The residents of Iberia and Circassia had a friendly relationship at this point.

After a while, the Crimean Khanate, which originated in Ukraine, formed near the town's borders. They bought the neighboring town of Sochi, which was established and put up for sale by a Turkish renegade a few days prior. Circassia attempted to purchase Sochi due to its real life historical significance as the capital of Circassia, but they lacked sufficient funds. Circassia maintains a neutral relationship with the Crimean Khanate but monitors their rapid expansion. During this time, the town also mobilized a military campaign to the Middle East upon discovering that a portion of the holy city of Mecca had fallen under the control of Israel, seeking to find and kill targeted players. Although the expeditionary force failed to find any online targets for combat, the campaign resulted in valuable information and an extensive exploration of the Arabian Peninsula. | After a while, the Crimean Khanate, which originated in Ukraine, formed near the town's borders.

While collecting wood to make a quick buck, a town member was ambushed by hostile Georgian players using invisibility potions and bows. After this, The Mayor decided to mount a counter-offensive to take revenge and fight for their nation, and for the first time, Circassia went on the offensive. The Mayor purchased some cheap combat gear and potions and started patrolling the Caucasus. Tracking the Georgians in a Georgian outpost located in southern Azerbaijan, the Mayor launched an attack. The operation was a success; yielding three kills and seized loot, but most importantly, morale. This proved to be the first significant victory of the developing town. | === First Battles of the Georgian War === | ||

The operation was a success; yielding three kills and seized loot, but most importantly, morale. This proved to be the first significant victory of the developing town. Following the initial counter-offensive, the Mayor raided further south to hunt additional Georgian targets. Upon reaching a Georgian outpost, utilizing an invisibility potion, he attempted to lure an enemy player out of their safe claims. This resulted in a 30-minute bow standoff. Although the skirmish ended without a decisive winner and the Mayor withdrew, the operation successfully disrupted Georgian productivity. The enemy was observed on the server map paranoidly searching for the Mayor long after the engagement ended. | |||
Back near Circassia, the town faced a wave of targeted harassment. Anonymous threatening signs began appearing just outside the town's borders. Furthermore, invisible attackers repeatedly targeted town members during routine wood-gathering operations. The attackers also placed TNT-trapped chests designed to kill whoever opened them. Circassian citizens easily identified and avoided the traps, but town leadership concluded that enemy forces were actively monitoring the server map to target them. | |||
During this period, a Circassian town member fell victim to a malicious scam. Upon reviewing the incident, the Mayor realized the scam was incredibly simple to replicate and could generate massive amounts of wealth for the town. Despite the potential for extreme profit, Circassia refused to engage in the unethical practice. | |||
To aggressively accelerate the town's wealth accumulation for the planned city rebuild, leadership established the Circassian Mining Corps. Equipped with highly efficient pickaxes and potions, the Corps launched a massive underwater mining operation. By utilizing the Nether to travel immense distances, the miners accessed completely isolated, previously untouched caverns. The operation yielded a massive amount of gold, and the exact coordinates of the site remain strictly classified to prevent rival players from finding it. Simultaneously, the town formed the Exploration Corps. this group embarked on long-distance expeditions to the extreme corners of the world and various exotic locations. Upon reaching these distant milestones, the Corps established a tradition of leaving signed markers to permanently document Circassia's presence across the globe. | |||
