History
Before Ethiopian Mersa
Main Article: Mersa (Former)
Before the creation of the current Mersa, the area was controlled by the large and historically significant Nubian town of Mersa. The town's mayor, gorkymoo1119, was a notable member of the Nubian community. Gorky, the former Emperor of Ethiopia who served in various government roles in the Second Nubian Empire, had gone inactive, leaving the town to fall.
The fall of Nubian Mersa
Lead up
Mersa's inevitable fall promptly became server news, with numerous people making their way over to Mersa, waiting for it to fall. With the imminent loss of such a prominent town, Nubia planned to create a town on the site of the lost city.
JackJackson logged on to the server several hours before the city's fall to vote for gold. Upon logging on, Jack was informed by a friend, Magg27, that Mersa was going to fall and asked if he wanted to attend the event with him. Jackson, realising the opportunity at hand, told Magg27 about the town's significance to Ethiopia, being the coronation site of Twomoo1119, Emperor of Nubia. After a short discussion in a voice call, Operation No Mersay was devised, a plan involving placing a town next to the current Mersa, so once the city fell the Temple of Isis could be secured by claiming it. Mag decided to provide nearly all of the funding for the plan, around a sum of 400 gold.
JackJackson messaged Sauq, notifying him of the Mersa's expected demise. Sauq quickly responded and logged on to the server to help with Operation No Mersay.
The Fall
Upon new day arriving, Mersa collapsed, and as a result, Operation No Mersay was quickly put into action. JackJackson, with Magg's guidance, claimed the entire Temple of Isis and Statue of Isis before the Nubian town of New_Mersa could claim it. Mag announced the victory to the Australian discord server, where celebration ensued.
