CivEx

f civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships - the ability of all peoples, of all kinds, to live together, in the same world at peace. -Franklin D. Roosevelt

Welcome to the Civilization Experiment II, a Minecraft server and social experiment taking place in a custom built survival world. Using custom plugins, ore generation, and food growth rates, CivEx intends on chronicling the rise and fall of nations, political ideologies, religions, organizations, governments... and civilization itself.

Omnitopia

For many the world is a place of beauty to admire and enjoy to the fullest. They stand in awe over the radiance of the natural landscape and wish for nothing but to live in simple communion with the land. To us however, this world is vast land of innumerable resources, to be acquired, catalogued and experimented upon for the glory of Science. We will show every other nation our technological superiority. And they will fear us and obey or be run down by the unrelenting march of progress. We of the Technocracy of Omnitopia intend to take control of the natural reserves of redstone, and harvest every iron vein in the land, with which to feed our foundries. We shall deploy fearsome machines and robotic creations that will give us the edge over our neighbours in times of Peace or War. Ours will be the automated farms that spawn hundreds of chunks and whose yield in raw materials is unrivaled throughout the world. Our war machines and TNT nukes will be ready to strike the heart of our enemies should they foolishly attempt to cross us. Our Sorcery Spires and Nether Forges will provide the very best enchanted battle gear and weapons that will ensure our army is the strongest and most disciplined. The full might of our empire will be thoroughly connected through state-of-the-art express railways allowing efficient trade of our riches and resources. Our roads will be guarded with automated defense systems designed to eliminate potential threats (mobs) on sight.

Greyshore

Trading. It's the essence of every economy. Greyshore knows that, and that's the reason why we'll settle at the meeting point of the Three Rivers. Rivers are a great way of transportation, and the place just looks good in general. Greyshore is heavily supported by the Merchants Guild, since the city is planning to become a city focussed heavily on culture and trading. The city will be ruled using a parlementary democracy (Once the city has enough members, until then it'll be a democracy). Click here to go to the subreddit. (Nothing useful on it yet) This city will also focus a lot on it's defence, since we don't want your precious goods you're storing for trading to be raided, isn't it? That's because once of the first things we'll do is make a proper wall which will protect the city. If you have any suggestions to the city, or questions, feel free to post them below! ~ Phaxar Minister-President of Greyshore.

2014-10-23 03:08:25

Amani Kingdom

The Amani Kingdom (Amanians) will be located in the warmer biomes this world has to offer. Our Kingdom will be created from the dust and sand of the desert into a glorious beacon of light. We will guard our borders of the desert at any cost and create a city to be reckoned with.

Pearling comes into existence

Hey all. For a while now, players have been asking about using some sort of imprisonment plugin in order to be able to detain players (PrisonBed, PrisonPearl, etc). We've held a couple votes in the past to gage interest and it hasn't really gone further than that. I would like for people to discuss the pros and cons of adding such a plugin…

2014-10-30 04:44:03

Golden Coast

So, you're serious about settlement, or just want to know more? First of all, you do not need any sort of citizenship to build in town, but you must talk to me to get a plot. Once you do, (everybody is entitled to a 15x30 plot), you can ask for more grants of land. We have a direct democracy, in an attempt to obtain Utopia (see /r/goldenpostpolitics). We are building a small city-state, and support multi-towning.

2014-10-30 04:44:03

Rev State

The world is an ever changing place; full of revolt and revolution, be a part of it. Together we shall revolutionize the world to abide by our laws, our culture, our trade prices. We will spread across the wastes converting all settlements to our ways, or they shall be eradicated.

2014-11-03 08:19:40

Arcestir

In a world where survival is dangerous, progress is everything. Arcestir is a civilization based off of progress. We are not thick minded like the rest of the world, warring on each other. We build, we create. We use the power of technology to thrive. Our government system is social status based, with some Athenian Democracy mixed in. We will have Assemblies, where every citizen will have their voices heard. Riches are vast. Resources are vast. We must obtain resources to create our masterpieces. However, in this world, the greedy will attempt to destroy us for our resources. We will stand our guard at the gates, defending against all that wish to destroy us. The best architects are needed, the best engineers are needed. Our motto is "The Progress Engine Continues". Join us, and be a part of the progress engine. Leave your ingame name below. Only time will tell. /r/Arcestir

The Map is finally revealed

After two weeks of exhaustive exploration I have finally completed mapping the entirety of the continent. I will be making the full 100 MB+, 12-Megapixel image public in the near future free of charge for the entire server (probably in a few weeks from now), once it it is properly styled and fitted with the location of all cities and points of interest. - Luni

The Angstrom Dynasty

We are The Angstrom Dynasty, the Empire Built On Steam. We are a proud nation spanning many generations of Miners, Traders, Engineers, and Explorers. Our Nation prides itself on it's beautiful architecture, along with its vast resources of foodstuffs and weaponry. We aim to set up trade routes across all nations, big or small; No matter how new, disheveled, outcast, or poor, you will always find welcome at The Angstrom Dynasty.

I've made a rough map of all governments who have already claimed some land. I will update as more areas are claimed. -Mr.Kireko

Sanctum

Sanctum is a city-state in the bottom right portion of the continent. It is headed by TheUberGuestUser, who is currently it's only resident.

2014-11-08 17:36:33

Moria

The black line is a rough idea of Moria's borders. More specifically, we are bordered on the North and West by the Peaks of the Great Northwest Range, on the east by the Encircling Sea, and on the South by a line across the ice plains from the lesser eastern spur to the Dimandor bay. We have a well established city in the region, a transportation network already in development, and plans for 3 further cities. We have a fairly large, active, and wealthy population. We have explored and left our mark over this entire region. As such we believe these borders are reasonable. In a related vein I hope that in the future groups will not claim a region until they have completely explored it.

2014-11-14 09:38:25

Severodvinsk

Greetings World of Experiment, I announce Severodvinsk as an excisting nation. We will be a Communistic Nation without any private property. We will not claim a lot of land, as we believe land is only usefull when you use it to the maximum. So our claim will be 250 blocks around each build. (Farm / Building / Statue / or whatever we build) This meens our claim increase by time automatic.

2014-11-14 16:51:33

Arcis

Arcis will be constructed under one the largest mountains this map has to offer, and be a home to the best miners and builders this world has to offer. Arcis' building style will be Dwarven, meaning there will be a an impressive amount of halls, long hallways and a lot of raw ore processing facilities. Other than trying to build one of the most beautiful cities in the world and gathering the most jewels we can get our hands on, we will also priotize the security of Arcis and the wealth of our citizens. We want to able to provide the maximum security possible to each and everyone of our citizens, and their accumulated wealth that is storaged in their bunkers.

The First Bounty

According to my snitch logs he was in Greyshore around the time of the To2too incident, he dug about 5 blocks under my home to get to one of my goody chests. Lucky me it was Diamond reinforced and he didn't break it. After I asked him about the incident he told me he was just "Looking around" and "wanted to see things". After I told him how strange that was since he dug specifically underground to the chest he told me he didn't know what I was talking about.

Arcestir falls into ruin

Hello, folks at Civ Ex. Arcestir has unfourtunatly into ruin. My other two members have been extemely inactive, so I was technically the only one carrying the wheel. I'll probably join another civilization. But we're gone, the land claim is free land. Thanks, MasterOfParadox

2014-11-16 10:57:10

Xhakúm

Xhakúm in an archaic civilization, based on self-preservation. We know the dangers of this world, and are a cautious people because of this. We dwell in the shadows, only branching out to communicate with other tribes when trust has been built. The government is ruled by a small council, but is fairly communistic in nature. Everyone's success depends on the success of the tribesmate next to him, and we will not let our society die out.

2014-11-17 07:40:18

Lysos

On behalf of the united Lysian tribes, I am laying claim to the five snow-capped peaks near the coordinates 5700,2400 and the region surrounding them. Currently the nation of Lysos is a loose association of otherwise mostly independent settlements in the area. More information will become available in the future.

Arcestir Returns

Like a phoenix, Arcestir arrises out of the ashes of a dying server. We are reborn once again. Our government style is a simple council, as we speak in one unified voice. Our focus is unknown to the public at the time. Our location is also unknown to the public, but our first and main city is Alcedonae. The only information we may give of this city is that it is underwater. Untouched from the rest of the world, in tune with nature. After Alcedonae is completed, another city will be started above ground, and eventually a final city will be built in the heavens.

The Golden Horde

I (Havok245) am here to announce the formation of the newest nation to grace the lands of Civilization Experiment; The Golden Horde. cue dramatic music and video clips of Mongols on Horse back The Golden Horde has settled in the lands of the brutal desert of the Southwest. Our nation has a focus of mercantilism coupled closely with industrialization that will help in our goal of conquering the unforgiving desert sand on which we build our homes and lives.

The Federation

I'm starting a new nation with myself and a few of my friends. We've got about seven people or so. If you are on our land without a reason we like, we will attack you. You are free to use the river unless we are actively tolling it.

Tensions raise between Angstrom and The Feds

Remove your land claim from within Angstroms claim and stop trying to build things within our land immediately. Your claim overlaps with our main settlement. Where you are building is of vital importance to us; Move yourselves to land which does not intersect ours. Thank you.

Angstrom Infringing on Federation Borders

Angstrom is infringing on Federation borders. This is after we had come to an agreement with Angstrom to purchase some of their land and return to them the rest of their land which we had claimed. Last night I saw the base of a large wall/castle that was reinforced with stone placed near the Federation/Angstrom border, but on the Federation side. I decided to go to the actual border and place a wooden palisade of our own, on which I wrote that this was the actual border. This afternoon I logged in to see their giant wall in sight of our capitol. On further inspection I noticed that my wall had been removed, as well as signs saying that this was the true border, and that their wall "is bigger than yours [mine]." I was obviously infuriated.

Dragons come to CivEx

Hey guys! After getting a lot of feedback from people who've tried out the DragonAttack plugin, I think it's getting close to the point that I can put it on the server. Before I do that, however, I need coordinates to as many locations as possible. The way my plugin works (for now) is I can identify different clusters of players in order to determine an ideal dragon that should attack them. Then I can summon a dragon of whatever type is chosen near the cluster of players so the fighting can begin. Once a dragon is summoned, it will let out a loud roar that all players within 1km should be able to hear. There will also be a global message displayed identifying which city the dragon is near ("Dragon spotted near Greyshore", "Dragon spotted on the outskirts of Nexus", etc). In order to provide the most accurate information on the dragons whereabouts (without providing actual coordinates), I need coordinates for as many places as possible.

Federation pearls multiple people

These four have been pearled. They came into the Federation capitol and attempted to kill members of the Federation in order to claim a bounty. I find it a bit unnerving that Prynok would attack us so soon after a peace treaty between my town and his (Rev State), although Twitch has explained to me that he did not fight us as part of Rev State.

2014-12-19 09:27:10

Fed's side of the story

I wants to clear a few things up. Here are all conflicts that the Federation has been involved with, in chronological order. On the first day after we had built our base, we went to mark it on the map. Unfortunately part of our claim overlapped with theirs. We just colored over it as we hadn't seen any angstrom members before…..

Brandywine

Hello Civex! We are a new nation who migrated from Omnitopia to form Brandywine! We are a peaceful non-conflict seeking mountainside/taiga community. We here like to drink absinthe all day while we get our work done and transform our terrain to best suit our town. We are willing to trade things like our crops, spruce logs, and whatever else we have that may interest you. We are still working out claims, as we don’t want them to conflict with others or be too big, but still want to claim what we think is best for us. As for a government type, we would say that we are closest to an oligarchy. Since there are only four of us now, we all try to make decisions as a group and consider each other’s opinions and ideas. Come on by and have a drink (or five) with us! Members: allliiisonnn, penguinj0e, picklesane, rosseau, ediblepandas

Rev State annexes Lysos

Lysos is up river from The Rev State and also happens to have an abundance of sand, in the interest of expanding our territory and collecting the sand we have decided to annex Lysos and merge it into our land claim. I messaged /u/kielbasabruh who I believe is the leader of Lysos the other day, I told him about my plans for his town and that he could stay in the town or even move to the capitol if they didn't fight, otherwise they would be dealt with accordingly. Several days have passed and the message has obviously been ignored. So now we are taking Lysos whether he stays or not, I would like the community map updated to show Lysos and the space in between as part of the Rev State claim. -Twitchingtons
