The **Constitutional Union of Carolina** was a faction on the GeoMC.io server. The faction was very controversial in the geopolitical sphere of North America. It faced many wars and many internal political struggles that led to its eventual 6 month long Civil War. The land that the CUC controlled was primarily based on the East Coast of North America, with Carolina being the base of it all. However, the CUC controlled distant territories in western North America, the Great Lakes region, and even in Europe. The faction managed to survive from June 2019 all the way up until the end of the server's life in October 2020.

## Significant Members

### Epic\_\_y

**Epic\_\_y** was the direct founder and President of the CUC throughout most of it's history. During his time in power he managed to help the CUC both grow, fall, and grow again. Epic\_\_y used his power to make the CUC into a more constitutional state to allow for a more republican form of government to dominate CUC politics. However Epic\_\_y can also be regarded as a controversial political figure due to his role in causing the CUC Civil War after he forced his way in making choices for the CUC without consent of the other high ranking members. Epic\_\_y was also controversial for building the White House and having it destroyed by his enemies during the CUC Civil War twice. Near the end of the server's life, Epic\_\_y learned many valuable lessons from being a President, and he managed to help keep the CUC stable in it's final weeks.

### Cobra103play

**Cobra103play** was one of the founding fathers of the CUC and he was also the Vice President of the CUC for some time throughout it's history. Cobra103play was always loyal to the Carolinian cause, and was very conservative on preserving the CUC heritage and form of government. He opposed the democratic reforms that Epic\_\_y tried to bring forward in the CUC, as he believed it went against what the CUC was founded for. Eventually the CUC Civil War broke out due to the direct political split between Cobra103play and Epic\_\_y, however it would end 6 months later with them reunifying the CUC as a whole again. Cobra103play played a vital role in shaping the modern CUC government before the server shut down, in which he helped form it into a constitutional autocracy with him and Epic\_\_y as the leaders.

### Chair123

**Chair123** was another founding father of the CUC and he was a high ranking officer in the CUC Government. Throughout the CUC's history, Chair123 managed to be a quiet yet significant figure in the development in the faction. He helped design the streets of Carolina City, the factions capital. He also created Chair City outside of Carolina City, and he would later go on to form the Chair Empire in Chair City during the later half of the CUC Civil War. Leading up to the CUC Civil War Chair123 was loyal to Epic\_\_y and supported his ideas in reforming and reshaping the CUC. When the CUC Civil War broke out, Chair123 gained Epic\_\_y's trust, and they became close political allies. Chair123 was even the President of the United States for a week when Epic\_\_y fled to Britannia after the White House was destroyed. However, Chair123 later betrayed the United States by unclaiming all of their land during the CUC Civil War to help out the United States' enemies. After the CUC reunified, Chair123 rejoined the CUC and helped it redevelop into a constitutional autocracy.

## History

### June 2019

On June 11, 2019 Epic\_\_y joined Geocraft for the first time. Not expecting to fully play the server, he set out to explore it to see what was already built and what factions had already been developed. Eventually he sailed across the Atlantic and he found himself in Carolina. He then decided to set up a small settlement on what would later become the capital city of the CUC, Carolina City. The next day he got his friend, Cobra103play, to come on and join him on the server. By this point it was June 12, 2019, and that day marked the CUC's foundation. During this time the CUC was known as the CFC, which stood for Communist Federation of Carolina.

#### June 15, 2019 - Danmark Raids the CFC

On June 15, 2018, Epic\_\_y had gotten a teleportation request from one of the Danmark members, however this request was a trap and Epic\_\_y blindly accepted it. The consequence of this resulted in a raid on the CFC by Danmark. They managed to kill all of the CFC dogs, and they managed to loot some of the CFC's items such as armor. The CFC eventually surrendered to Danmark and both sides managed to truce. The Danmark members that did raid the CFC did feel bad for doing so, so they gave Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play new sets of armor after the raid.

#### Early Diplomacy

After the CFC's loss to Danmark, Cobra103play had embarked on a mission to set up new relations with the CFC's neighbor up in Virginia, that being the faction Rosewood. The mission was successful, and the CFC managed to gain their first ally, that being Rosewood. Controversy soon came after this with the mysterious death of Epic\_\_y in a mineshaft. He was killed by someone, and the CFC suspected that Rosewood was to blame, though the controversy was never solved as there was no evidence of who killed Epic\_\_y in the mineshaft.

#### June 18, 2019 - Carolina Expands

The CFC during this time in June had undergone rapid expansion, however some of this expansion was illegal in regards to the server's rules. The CFC managed to autofill all of Carolina and most of Florida in on the map, leading them to believe that they had actually claimed that area, even though they really didn't. This confusion that the CFC had managed to cause the server's playerbase to take notice of their illegal expansion and call the CFC out for it. The CFC then realized what they had done wrong, and fixed the claims so they wouldn't be illegal. Regardless of the claim status, on June 18, 2019, all the CFC members agreed to rename the CFC into the CUC, which stood for Communist Union of Carolina.

#### June 27, 2019 - Roman Threats emerge

On June 27, 2019, Rosewood was raided by Cranerja, followed by another raid up in New England by Adderral. The CUC was put on high alert due to the fact that the neighboring east coast factions got raided by the Romans. Chair123 and Cobra103play immediately begun building a defense wall in the Chesapeake Bay to defend against Adderral if he were to come down to try and raid the CUC. Luckily for the CUC this ended up not happening due to Chair123 and Cobra103play logging off.

#### June 28, 2019 - Greater Iberia Raids the CUC

On June 28, 2019, Greater Iberia decided to raid the CUC simply because the CUC was communist. Greater Iberia at the time made every communist faction their enemy, and since the CUC was communist, Greater Iberia declared them to be an enemy. 3 chunks of CUC land were pillaged by Greater Iberia, and some valuable chests were looted. In a final attempt to push the raiders out, Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play lit the Carolina House in Carolina City on fire sine the Iberians were inside of it. This attempt proved unsuccessful, as the CUC ended up surrendering to Greater Iberia. A peace treaty was then signed, and the CUC was forced to become a puppet of Greater Iberia, establish a state religion under Roman Catholicism, and to finally become a capitalist faction. The CUC then became the Capitalist Union of Carolina.

#### June 30, 2019 - Chair123 forms the United Resistance

After Houston, the Texan Empire's capital city, was taken over by Adderral under Impero Jr., Chair123 decided to create a large organization called the United Resistance, which opposed the Roman aggression that was taking place all over the server. The UR worked with the Grand Alliance, and together they amassed majority of the factions on the server that opposed the Romans.

### July 2019

On July 1, 2019, the CUC constructed a brand new wall that covered the perimeter of Carolina City. It was built for the specific reason of defending the CUC's capital city from Adderral. The following day on July 2, almost every faction teamed up under the UR and GA to go against Adderral after he attempted to raid Impero Romano. The main battle took place in Rome, and around 30 or so people were on from various different factions to fight Adderral. The battle went on for a few hours due to the fact that Adderral and his gang hid inside small holes. From these holes, Adderral managed to kill people, however it was proved that he ended up hacking from a recording a player took. This resulted in Adderral's permanent ban from the server, thus ending the Adderral wars for good.

#### July 6, 2019 - CUC Independence from Greater Iberia

On July 6, 2019, Greater Iberia decided to give the CUC the option to remain a puppet for protection, or to go independent with only one condition. The CUC chose to go independent, with the only condition being that they wouldn't be a communist nation again. The CUC agreed to this, and then became the SUC, which stood for Socialist Union of Carolina.

#### July 27, 2019 - The fall of Greater Iberia

Over the course of July, Greater Iberia became weaker and weaker, as their enemies grew larger and larger. Eventually all the communist nations that opposed them managed to pillage them due to their low power. The Grand Alliance led the raid under the Grand Alliance, and they successfully managed to capitulate Greater Iberia. Barcelona, Greater Iberia's capital city, was looted and griefed by the Grand Alliance and even the SUC. Directly after the raid, Epic\_\_y declared the SUC to be the CUC again, as they had finally become a communist nation once again.

### August 2019

In early August, the CUC continued to grow larger by gaining more land mass. On August 8, 2019, the CUC claimblocked the Tri-State Empire due to the fact that Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play initially thought that the Tri-State Empire was stealing their underground railroad. Once the claimblock was finished, Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play built a wall around the city of Philadelphia, to trap the Tri-State Empire in itself. The only way the wall would be torn down would be if the Tri-State Empire gave up their land so the CUC could officially claim the railroad that they built. Later, WashWave (the leader of the Tri-State Empire), reported the CUC claimblock, and the moderators fixed it so that it wouldn't be a claimblock anymore. Eventually the CUC established better relations with the Tri-State Empire on August 11, 2019. A border agreement was made where the Tri-State Empire would claim Delaware, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, and the CUC would claim Virginia and Maryland.

#### August 10-16, 2019 - Patagonia Raids the CUC

On August 10, 2019, the faction known as Patagonia, decided to raid the CUC in an attempt to loot Carolina City. The raid began when Epic\_\_y was mining in a cave, to which he then met up with BlockyBallboa whom was the leader of Patagonia. Directly after this, BlockyBallboa killed Epic\_\_y, and began to pillage Carolina City. Epic\_\_y couldn't fight back alone, so he called for any help he could find. ChasingJolteon came to Epic\_\_y's aid and fought back against BlockyBallboa. By the end of the raid, the CUC lost around $20k in chunks, and a new faction was created in Carolina City called "bopbop", and it was led by the player Raided. Six days after the first raid, Patagonia struck the CUC again and hit them with another successful raid. By this point the CUC was losing the war against Patagonia. Throughout the war however, the CUC and Texan Empire did team up to make fun of and threaten Patagonia. Swatpack and Epic\_\_y left a bunch of signs with dirty jokes written on them about Patagonia outside of the Patagonian base. There was also a notable attempt to make a TNT trap outside the Patagonian base, but it didn't work.

#### August 20, 2019 - The first war against Snowland

Upon hearing the news that a new faction called Snowland settled down in Florida, the CUC took it in as a threat to their claim plans. Epic\_\_y proceeded to declare war on Snowland due to that reason, and also because the leader of Snowland, BrissBrass, had made a new server crasher that cause massive lag to the server. After a while of fighting, the CUC emerged as the winner of the war.

#### August 23, 2019 - The Start of the 90k War

During this time the faction 90k, lead by Creeks, built a railroad that went from Nebraska all the way into New York. 90k claimed the entire railroad, which prevented 6 North American factions from expanding up north, and that included the CUC. Epic\_\_y had made attempts to reach out to Creeks about the railroad, but all these attempts failed. As a result, Epic\_\_y declared war on 90k. Snowland decided to join the CUC in the war against 90k as well. In the end of the first battle against 90k, both the CUC and Snowland had lost.

#### August 25-27, 2019 - Internal struggles and the Second War against Snowland/Rawland

In the later half of August, the CUC faced internal political struggles between Chair123 and Cobra103play. Chair123 argued that everyone should use their own resources for their own desires, while Cobra103play argued that the resources should be used for the greater good of the faction as a whole. On August 25, 2019, Snowland changed their name to Rawland, and continued to refuse to move out of Florida. As a result of this, Epic\_\_y went down to Rawland and killed BrissBrass's dog, which spiked tensions between Rawland and the CUC. Later that same day once all of Rawland was offline, Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play burnt down the unclaimed parts of Rawland's town. A large amount of Rawland was lost to the flames, and all of the unclaimed areas were then claimed by the CUC. The next day on August 26, 2019, the CUC and Rawland fought a long and hard battle, in both Florida and Carolina City. During the battle, Chair123 was kicked out of the CUC due to his negative reputation, so he joined Rawland. Chair123 did have one trick up his sleeve, as he had access to his sister's account that was still apart of the CUC. He used this account to bomb and destroy most of the CUC Capitol Building. The bombing of the CUC Capitol signified CUC's loss during the battle, and the CUC ended up being pillaged resulting in the loss of the Rawland occupation zone. On August 27, 2019, the CUC and Rawland agreed to a truce, in which CUC lost the second war to Rawland. However this truce did not last long, as the CUC untruced them to kill Chair123 and to burn down Rawland again as revenge for what happened to the CUC Capitol building. Soon after that, Rawland renamed to Snowland again and allied the CUC. Chair123 would later rejoin the CUC again.

#### August 31, 2019 - The 90k War Grows

90k became a larger threat to not only the CUC and Snowland, but many other factions as well. This resulted in the Grand Alliance embarking on a mission to try and raid the 90k base. Methods such as PvP and the use of TNT cannons were used during this attempted raid. The raid included the CUC, Texan Empire, Nevada, Britannia, and Maori. The mission ended up failing resulting in a loss for the Grand Alliance against 90k.

### September 2019

In early September 2019, not much happened for the CUC. They continued to develop and expand their land with the threat of 90k still looming on their shoulders. Development of the first CUC Military Base was rampant at this time, as Epic\_\_y wanted to develop the first Radar system in the CUC with the use of redstone in the Military Base Radar Tower.

#### September 13, 2019 - The CUC Gains New Territory in Europe

After many weeks of grinding up for a new territorial expansion project, the CUC was finally able to get their first settlement in Portugal. This settlement would become the colony of Epic Town, located where Lisbon would be, and it would serve as a base for the CUC in Europe.

#### September 14-20, 2019 - The Renovatio Imperii Raids

On September 14, 2019, Cranerja had declared war on the CUC, and attempted to raid Carolina City. The CUC was one of many victims to fall at the hands of Renovatio Imperii, and the alliance the CUC was in (the GA) was doing nothing to stop the attacks from Renovatio Imperii. A Peace Conference was held in the GA Discord on September 15, with the main topic being what to do about the Renovatio Imperii raids. Due to the GA's absence on confronting the issue, a new alliance called the Union of North American Preservation (UNAP) was created. On September 20, 2019, Renovatio Imperii attacked all the factions that were associated with UNAP. Renovatio Imperii's series of attacks wouldn't last for long, as the leader Cranerja was later permanently banned that same day for saying racial slurs in a private discord server. Cranerja's banning was a big win for his enemies, and a party was held in the Texan Empire capital city of Houston.

#### September 20, 2019 - The New World Purchase

On September 20, 2019, the CUC bought the faction New World from Super\_MAC7. The CUC gained the states of Delaware and New Jersey from this purchase, and renamed into the Communist Empire of Carolina (CEC) due to their larger land size.

#### September 21-22, 2019 - The 90k War Continues

After a break from the server, Creeks made an unexpected return on September 21, 2019. He proceeded to target CEC citizens in a killing spree, which in effect caused the CEC's power to drop significantly. The next day on September 22, Creeks came back to the CEC, however no one in the CEC or UNAP as a whole wanted to fight him. So, the CEC members and UNAP members from various other North American factions hid inside of Super\_MAC7's bunker in Carolina City. Creeks took the time to bomb Carolina City with creepers while everyone else hid inside the bunker. Once the bombing was finished, Carolina City was in ruins with creeper holes spotted everywhere. The CEC was quick to fill up these new holes in an attempt to repair the damaged Carolina City.

#### September 23-24, 2019 - The CEC Reforms

The 90k War had taken another small break again, however the CEC was facing internal political turmoil. Epic\_\_y felt that the CEC needed to reform into a more constitutional nation where the people would have more power in shaping the government democratically. Cobra103play on the other hand believed that the CEC should stay the way it was at the time so that it could preserve its heritage, form of government, and traditions. Despite Cobra103play's efforts to resist change to the faction, Epic\_\_y managed to force his way in changing the political structure of the faction. On September 23, 2019, the CEC had officially reformed into a constitutional republic that allowed for a more democratic process of government to be enacted. The name officially changed into the Republic of United Carolinian States (RUCS). Although Epic\_\_y liked the government change, he did not like the name of the faction, while Cobra103play did. A large political debate was held on September 24, 2019, on what the name should change to. Epic\_\_y argued it should change to United Carolina, while Cobra103play wanted to keep the current name. Both sides had their supporters, but despite Cobra103play's majority support for keeping the name, Epic\_\_y changed it to United Carolina anyway with minimal support. At this point the internal political divide in United Carolina was growing, and Cobra103play threatened to split off to create the United Carolina Remnant, but Epic\_\_y convinced him to stay in the faction for one last chance.

### The Formation of the United States

On September 26, 2019, Epic\_\_y decided that he wanted United Carolina to become the United States. He was motivated to do so due to the growing support of a United States style government among the North American factions. This government would act as an alliance for protection, but all factions would be member states, as if they were all in one faction. Epic\_\_y decided that since United Carolina was the largest land sized faction in North America, all the other factions would join it if it were to reform into the United States. Epic\_\_y also liked the idea of having the United States exist in general as a faction, so he went through with the reformation. Cobra103play was not happy about these changes, and was starting to get upset with Epic\_\_y with making so many rampant changes to the faction in only a matter of a few days.

### A Rocky Start for the United States

Throughout the period of late September through mid October 2019, the United States was already off to a rocky start. Most of its members preferred the CUC be brought back, but Epic\_\_y refused to do that. Cobra103play and Epic\_\_y continued to have political arguments as to where the faction was going at the time, and a notable member in the community left the United States for a period of time to live off in Siberia as a protest to the changes. The United States even lost land, as the Tri-State Empire split off from them and reformed as a new independent faction. Everything was going downhill, but there was some good things that had occurred for the United States. Creeks ended up getting banned for hacking on October 4, 2019, which marked the official end of the 90k War. The United States also gained new territory in Kansas and Nebraska, as Lloyd\_Lyle joined the US. This territory included Kansas City and the original 90k base. MechaRobo77, who was a major player on the server, donated $27k to the United States so that it could go on peaceful mode to avoid all and any wars.

### The Start of the CUC Civil War

By mid October 2019, the United States fell into another political scandal. Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play continued to have more disagreements, which ultimately led to Cobra threatening to split off from the United States. Eventually Epic\_\_y kicked Cobra103play out of the faction due to how he thought that Cobra103play was going to grief the faction with TNT. The truth was that Cobra103play had not intended on doing that, and Epic\_\_y greatly misjudged the situation. Following the kicking of Cobra103play, his followers soon joined him by leaving or getting kicked from the United States. These members included FireTypePhoenix, Tomdanewb, and Devobo. For a temporary time, they sought refuge in Britannia, to which they managed to convince the British to get involved in the political situation over in the United States. By October 17, 2019, the British successfully occupied Carolina City, and capitulated the United States up to the north. Other US states split off, such as Kansas and Rosefield down in Florida. Paris\_Labrador offered the Treaty of Paris to Epic\_\_y, which stated that the United States would join Britannia, become the 13 colonies, and both Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play would be the head of the colonies. Epic\_\_y was going to accept it, but ChocolateDonut\_ (the leader of Nevada) urged Epic\_\_y not to accept it. Epic\_\_y didn't accept, so he was forced to pay $80k to Britannia to secure American independence. After the British war against the United States, Cobra103play and FireTypePhoenix established the Carolinian Republic Remnant on October 18, 2019. Four days later, Epic\_\_y, Cobra103play, FireTypePhoenix, and MechaRobo77 were in a voice call on Discord. This call would be very significant, as MechaRobo77 convinced Epic\_\_y to attack the CRR once Cobra103play and FireTypePhoenix got back from being a.f.k. in the call. MechaRobo77 told Epic\_\_y that it would be for a joke, so he paid Epic\_\_y $5k to enemy the CRR. Epic\_\_y declared war, and then when Cobra103play and FireTypePhoenix got back Epic\_\_y proceeded to attack them as a joke. The CRR fought back, and Epic\_\_y was officially killed. This would become the starting point of the CUC Civil War as the CRR took the declaration of war as a serious threat and not a joke.

### The CUC Civil War

Throughout the period of late October 2019, the United States found itself caught in the middle of a Civil War that it started. The CRR made frequent visits to the United States, in attempt to annoy the members of the United States. These visits resulted in violent attacks between both CRR and US members at times, which only made the tension between the two factions worse. Snowland intervened in the Civil War at times too, in which they came to the defense of the CRR, and the Britannic Empire (formally known as Britannia at the time) got involved to observe all the fighting. As the CUC Civil War progressed, Epic\_\_y continued construction on Washington D.C., which he planned to make the official capital of the United States. The first building to be built there was the White House, which would later become a controversial project.

#### November 2019 - Cold War Period to the CUC Civil War

Tensions continued to worsen between the US and CRR during this period, and it would become known as the Cold War period of the CUC Civil War. The US and CRR often tried to compete politically, and scientifically. The CRR had claimed that they developed Nukes, but the US believed that the CRR was lying about their Nuclear development. Internally the US faced domestic political trouble due to the Cold War period of the CUC Civil War. WashWave, who was the governor of Pennsylvania during this time, threatened to split off from the US if the situation didn't cool down. By mid November 2019, a political deal was made between Epic\_\_y and Cowboy32 over the state of Jamaica, in which Cowboy32 governed at the time. The deal was that if Cowboy32 won the upcoming Vice Presidential Election in the US, then he would stay in the faction until his term was up. But if he lost, then Jamaica would become independent. A few days after Epic\_\_y made the Jamaican political deal, Kansas was raided by Mecca, and as a result the US annexed Kansas again. The Kansas annexation was controversial, as other factions believed that the US hired Mecca to raid Kansas, but the truth was that Mecca raided Kansas because the leader Lloyd\_Lyle kept insulting MechaRobo77, who was the leader of Mecca. A few days later, California was raided by Mecca, and another deal was made for California to be annexed by the US. However, this deal was ultimately canceled, as Nevada rejected the idea of the US being on the west coast due to the US being aggressive towards a player that attempted to settle down in New York.

#### December 2019 - The CUC Civil War becomes Brutal

During this time, the CUC Civil War did not get better, and as a result Pennsylvania split off from the United States. Pennsylvania ended up being led by WashWave, and he took the states of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York with him for his new faction. A new threat to the US popped up, that threat being Niflheim. The leader of Niflheim, JackTCool, set off to kill Epic\_\_y several times, which lowered US power even more. Along with the new threat of Niflheim to the US, a new alliance known as the Central Order was established, with the leader factions being Svalbard and the Catainian Empire. The Central Order sided against the US, and considered the SCR (formally known as the CRR during this time) to be an observer of their alliance as they had the same enemy in common. Throughout early December, the US enemy list grew larger, and the murders of US members became more frequent. The SCR started claiming into Georgia, which made their grip against the US stronger. Svalbard continued to bomb the White House, and Niflheim continued to threaten the US. Eventually the White House bombings stopped for a temporary amount of time, as the US and Svalbard came to an agreement that the US would give Svalbard a set of God Gear within a period of two weeks. Eventually the US paid off the God Gear successfully, which secured peace for the US and Svalbard for a small period of time. By late December 2019, a portion of "Operation Nightfall" was leaked to the US, and it included a plan by the ISA (formally known as the CRR/SCR) to convince US members to start a socialist revolution within the US. One day later, a scandal emerged between the ISA and the US, as the ISA blamed the US for the death of their dogs, and the ISA sought direct revenge against the US. That day would come, as on December 22, 2019, the ISA successfully occupied Carolina City, and Washington D.C., and Jamaica declared independence, as they were held in from doing so. The ISA occupation in Washington D.C. led to the direct demolition of the White House. Almost every faction got involved in the demolition of the White House, as it had valuable materials such as White Concrete and Quartz. Epic\_\_y fled to the Britannic Empire for refuge during this time, as he felt he needed a break from being the President of the US. Chair123 took his place, and became the official President of the US during this time. Epic\_\_y eventually rejoined the US eight days later, as he felt determined to fix it up, and help it recover from a brutal month of fighting. The ISA didn't like this, and continued to wage war against the US.

#### January 2020 - The CUC Civil War becomes Destructive

In early January 2020, a new player got involved on both sides of the CUC Civil War, aiming to help both sides in the conflict. He is best known as Warden, as he constantly changed his username every week. Warden originally agreed to help the US regain Carolina City and Washington D.C. through unclaiming them from the ISA. This plan went through successfully, and the US managed to regain Carolina City and Washington D.C. successfully, which shocked the ISA and other factions. The ISA with the help of Niflheim attempted to fight back as a result of the recent US comeback. A day after the US regained its lost land, Chair123 was ousted from power as being President of the US, with the help of US and ISA forces combined. Epic\_\_y was put back in power as being the President of the US, and officially made the US allied with the ISA. The ISA went on to rename to The Tainted Sun, and for a brief period of time it seemed like the CUC Civil War was coming to an end, and the US was entering a new good age. The US was expanding into more lands during this time with the help of Warden, as Warden attempted to convince nearby factions to join the US. As mid January approached, the US was suddenly insided by The Tainted Sun, and the US lost all of their claimed land in an instant. The Tainted Sun came in and claimed Carolina City from the now fallen US, and Epic\_\_y used all his remaining money to reclaim lost land, in an emergency effort to save the US. However, Chair123 went on to unclaim all the land for a second time, and the Neo-ISA (formally known as The Tainted Sun) continued to claim old US land. The second White House that Epic\_\_y had been working on was demolished once again, this time by the Neo-ISA and Snowland. The US resettled in Wisconsin, however the Neo-ISA demanded that they give up and disband, but the US refused. All the unclaimed former US land by this point was massively griefed by GGRU, whom of which was another US enemy. As the days progressed, the US slowly recovered, by constantly grinding up more money, and by setting up their new capital in Wisconsin. Epic\_\_y did propose the idea of a new treaty called "The Treaty of the East", however his proposed treaty was unsuccessful in being approved by any faction.

#### February 2020 - The CUC Civil War Drags On

As the US slowly recovered from their capitulation in January 2020, they started to expand eastward, regaining old land. Epic\_\_y did attempt to reclaim the White House plot, but before he could claim it Britannia (formally known as the Britannic Empire) managed to claim it. As February dragged on, not much had really happened in regards to the CUC Civil War. It was more of a temporary peacetime, with the only major thing happening was land development and money grinding. Epic\_\_y attempted to reach out to Cobra103play by mid February 2020 on a potential merge deal, however Cobra103play rejected all proposals, and rejected all future meetings of a merge deal. By late February, controversy occurred over the US ownership of Fort Mushroom. Warden wanted Fort Mushroom for himself, and Cobra103play defended Warden's cause by claiming that he should have it. Essentially the full deal was to be that Warden would get Fort Mushroom, as he would move from Fort Idaho to there. And Fort Idaho would be given to Cascadia. Epic\_\_y hosted a vote on whether to keep Fort Mushroom, but only one person voted before the time limit, so it was determined that Fort Mushroom would stay in the US. This resulted in the Neo-ISA continuing the CUC Civil War, as they defended Warden. Soon after the controversial Fort Mushroom scandal, Warden was exposed for playing both sides in the CUC Civil War for self-gain. His toxicity in private chats was also exposed, and this greatly damaged his reputation. As a result, Paris\_Labrador trapped Warden permanently in a fake bunker under the English Channel. Soon after this, Warden quit the server for a small period of time, and then he came back in an attempt to take down Epic\_\_y. However Warden ended up being banned permanently after his toxicity towards Epic\_\_y was exposed.

#### March 2020 - The CUC Civil War Comes to an End

Throughout the period of early March 2020, nothing significant really happened to the US or Neo-ISA. The US did hand over Fort Idaho to Cascadia weeks after the Warden Scandal cooled down. By late March 2020, Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play were finally able to negotiate a potential merge, which in effect would end the CUC Civil War. Finally on March 30, 2020, Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play sign the "Treaty of Unification", which in effect would reunify the two factions together, which would end the old rivalry. Once the factions were reunified, the name became United Carolina. The Chair Empire merged in as well into United Carolina, ultimately meaning that the three original leaders of the CUC were now back together to re-establish what they once had.

### April 2020

As the server saw that United Carolina was back and finally reunified, other North American factions such as Santa Barbara and Kansas had considered joining in the new Union. Kansas ended up joining United Carolina, while Santa Barbara wasn't allowed to due to their puppet status under the faction TSNR. TSNR initially thought that United Carolina wouldn't last long and that it would break up again, which is why they prevented Santa Barbara from joining United Carolina.

#### April 4, 2020 - United Carolina Declares War on Canada

United Carolina and Britannia teamed up together to go to war with Canada. Although the motive for the war is unknown, United Carolina joined in to support their ally in defeating the Canadians. The war was successful for the Carolinians and the British, as they had successfully defeated Canada by raiding their base, looting their items, and griefing their base.

#### April 6, 2020 - United Carolina Declares War on South Carolina

A new faction popped up in South Carolina, and it was called South Carolina. United Carolina saw this and made an attempt ask South Carolina to join United Carolina. The leader of South Carolina said he would think about it, but ultimately decided to not join United Carolina. Soon after, United Carolina declared war on South Carolina in an attempt to forcefully have them merge into United Carolina. A 4v1 battle went down, with United Carolina having the majority combatants, however United Carolina lost. South Carolina then stated that they would reconsider joining United Carolina after the battle, with the only reason why he turned it down in the first place was to see what kind of faction United Carolina was. At the end of the day, Epic\_\_y had declared United Carolina relations with South Carolina to be neutral.

#### April 7, 2020 - United Carolina attempts to Raid MYAA

Epic\_\_y had noticed that MYAA (formally Canada) was still around, and since he still considered them an enemy to United Carolina, he attempted to raid them. Though this attempt failed, as the MYAA members camped out and hid in their base, and they even logged off at different points.

#### April 10, 2020 - Border Disputes with EZLN

On April 10, 2020, Epic\_\_y noticed that the faction EZLN had been claiming land in the lower tip of Florida, and he took it in as a potential threat. Prior to this, EZLN had been primarily based on the Yucatan Peninsula down in Mexico. Immediately, United Carolina began to expand more into Florida in order to assert their claims there. EZLN responded by claiming around United Carolina's claims. This led them to claim western Florida, the remainder of Georgia, and all of Alabama. Later, negotiations were held between United Carolina and EZLN on what to do about the claims and border for the two factions. Eventually a deal was settled where United Carolina would get northern Florida, and EZLN would get the rest of Florida. EZLN did show interest in acquiring Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana, however United Carolina did not agree to giving EZLN those states.

#### April 11, 2020 - United Carolina Declares War on EZLN

After United Carolina negotiated a border deal with EZLN in Florida, EZLN continued to claim past Florida. They claimed more into Georgia and Alabama, which were the states United Carolina did not want them to claim into. Soon after this, United Carolina declared war on EZLN, and Britannia followed United Carolina by joining in the war to their aid. Britannia ended up claiming land into the Yucatan Peninsula, in an attempt to set up a foothold in the Yucatan to gain control of EZLN's base there.

#### April 15-17, 2020 - United Carolina Negotiates a Treaty with EZLN

On April 15, 2020, United Carolina and EZLN opened up negotiations for a second time in regards to the border dispute war they were having. The next day, EZLN unclaimed their base on the Yucatan Peninsula, and Britannia occupied their former base directly after. With the new power they gained, EZLN started claiming Arkansas to fully claim out what they proposed to United Carolina. Later, Jim, who owned land in Florida, offered to give up his claims to anyone. United Carolina expressed interest in obtaining Jim's land, however Jim refused to give it to them, and instead gave it to PHTS. After finding out about United Carolina's continued interest in controlling Florida, EZLN had called off all treaty negotiations with United Carolina. On April 17, 2020, EZLN re-opened their treaty negotiations with United Carolina.

#### April 17, 2020 - South Carolina gets Annexed

On April 17, 2020, South Carolina had finally disbanded due to inactivity, so United Carolina was swift to claim the state in order to secure the Carolinas for themselves. A few days later Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play established New Carolina City in South Carolina in an attempt to draw more settlers there.

#### April 22, 2020 - United Carolina gets Insided

Carolina City was discovered to be found in ruins from an insider, with valuable items stolen and lost. An investigation was put together, and it was determined that the player Sizzlebiscut was to blame for the insiding due to the fact that he was on an hour before Epic\_\_y. Ultimately, his house in Wisconsin was put under investigation, and Epic\_\_y found some stolen items there, such as stacks of iron that had been missing and a cow spawner that belong to Cobra103play. Sizzlebiscut was ultimately kicked from United Carolina for committing treason. Soon after, repairs were underway in the Carolina region to fix all the damage that had been done.

### May 2020

Early May was mostly uneventful, however Impero Romano did make a sudden return on May 2, 2020, with the only difference being that it was led by Jirka and Kral. They went around killing members of random factions, which included players like Epic\_\_y and Ironblock1. Their attacks only lasted about a day, and weren't that significant.

#### May 19, 2020 - United Carolina Reforms Again

On May 19, 2020, it was decided that the United Carolinian Government would reform into a Constitutional Autocracy. This led to United Carolina becoming the Constitutional Union of Carolina, so they could once again be the CUC. The CUC also managed to regain their old Portugal Colony of Epic Town, and the old Greater Iberia Capital of Barcelona.

#### May 21, 2020 - Pan-American Union Raids the CUC

On May 21, 2020, two trespassers were caught walking on CUC territory, and the CUC had a rule of no trespassing. Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play followed them and killed them for trespassing on CUC territory. The Pan-American Union (formally known as EZLN) questioned why the CUC killed the trespassers, and disagreed with the CUC's practice of enforcing the no trespassing rule. Soon after the debate, the PAU reminded the CUC how they still needed to give them southern Florida. The CUC agreed to do it, however they were unable to, as both Cobra103play and Epic\_\_y logged off for a bit. While they were logged off, a player was kicked from the CUC due to inactivity. This gave the PAU the chance to pillage the CUC. The PAU managed to successfully pillage Carolina City and occupy it. The CUC then relocated their capital city to New Carolina City in South Carolina. The CUC made an emergency offer to give the PAU southern Florida and $60k, but the PAU refused the offer, claiming that Carolina City was their "token." The southern CUC coastline was also claimblocked by the PAU.

#### May 21-June 1, 2020 - The Pan-American Union War

As the PAU War continued to drag on, things took a turn once the CUC started to militarize the border with the PAU. With the help of the Western Powers, the CUC was able to place some TNT cannons outside of PAU's claims. The PAU then decided to blow up the parts of the CUC Capitol building, which upset both the CUC and the Western Powers. The PAU used methods of logging off when the CUC and Western Powers were at their strongest points, but when they weren't, the PAU would log back on to attack any CUC or Western Powers member. This resulted in the PAU getting the first kill in the war after they killed Shredded\_Lettuce. The PAU also had a spy working for them in the Western Powers Discord that sent vital Western Powers military information back to the PAU. As a result of that, the PAU got ahold of the Nova Moray Shire TNT cannon design that the Western Powers was using. On May 30, 2020, after the World Summit, the PAU demolished the original CUC Capitol Building, which upset the CUC and the Western Powers, as they argued that it was a historical building that shouldn't have been demolished. After the demolition, the CUC and Western Powers assembled all their forces to attempt another raid on PAU's base in Florida. This was unsuccessful as the PAU members hid in their bunker. The Western Powers offered to have some of their players fight some of PAU's players, but the PAU said the only way they would agree to that is if the fight were to be held in their bunker, and the Western Powers refused that offer. Eventually the PAU convinced the Western Powers to pull out of the war because they said they would continue to hide in their bunker, which would drag on the war. The Western Powers agreed to pull out, so the CUC was left to fight the PAU alone.

#### June 1, 2020 - The Pan-American Union War comes to an End

After many days of fighting, the PAU War finally came to an end with the CUC surrendering. The terms of this treaty for the CUC were: The CUC would give the PAU all of Florida, Epic\_\_y would have to step down as President of the CUC with Cobra103play becoming the new President, and the CUC would pay the PAU $30K. The terms of this treaty for the PAU were: The PAU would unclaim Carolina City and give it back to the CUC, the PAU claimblock on the CUC southern coastline would be unclaimed, the PAU would unclaim their territory in France, and the PAU would have the option to join the Western Powers. The treaty was a success, as the CUC got Carolina City back, and the PAU joined the Western Powers and truced with the CUC.

### June 2020

Throughout early June, the CUC began to redevelop and recover from the recent war against the PAU. With Cobra103play as the new CUC President, optimism was high, as there was hope that he would be a good leader and serve the Union well.

#### June 3, 2020 - Wisconsin gains Independence

The CUC State of Wisconsin which was governed by TylerKMoore1, was eager to gain independence from the CUC so it could become its own faction. The CUC and Wisconsin drafted up a deal where Wisconsin would be granted independence, as long as they remained loyal to the CUC, and would become a CUC Puppet State. Wisconsin agreed to the terms, and was granted independence and became the Constitutional Republic of Wisconsin (CRW).

#### June 10-11, 2020 - Old Enemies make a Return

After the server owner, Woozer, unbanned some old players, they made a comeback and started up new factions and immediately went around attacking factions. Players like Cranerja and USSBoston came back to reform their orginal factions that had once dominated the server. Cranerja reformed Impero Romano, and USSBoston reformed the Ostrogoths (later renamed to Aegis). On June 11, 2020, Impero Romano declared war on Florida (formally known as the PAU), which dragged the Western Powers into a war against Impero Romano. The CUC tried their best to remain neutral throughout the war.

#### June 20-21, 2020 - The CUC tries to remain Neutral in the Western Powers

As the war against Impero Romano and their allies (Niflheim and 43902904) continued on, three factions in the Western Powers refused to participate in the war or help supply the Western Powers in the war effort. These factions were the CUC, Nevada, and the SDS. The Western Powers then announced that they would be reviewing the three factions for refusing the participate in or help supply the war effort once the war was to be finished. Cobra103play and Tonydangermouse (who was the leader of Cascadia and the Western Powers) argued on the CUC's stance in the war. Cobra103play argued that the CUC was not interested in joining in the war, while Tonydangermouse argued that the CUC should at least help supply the war effort. Cobra103play responded by saying the best the CUC could do is to supply one golden apple to the western powers a day, but Tonydangermouse said that wouldn't be enough.

### July 2020

As July rolled around, nothing significant for the CUC happened. The CUC continued to remain neutral throughout the war period in the Western Powers, which earned them their first strike in the alliance. By July 5, 2020, the CUC got a second strike in the Western Powers for not having the required Gazebo on their land. Super\_MAC7 saw this and proceeded to build a Gazebo for the CUC, to which Florida reviewed it for the Western Powers.

#### July 5, 2020 - The "Greater Axis Pact" gets exposed to the Western Powers by Samy112

Prior to getting exposed, Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play had been drafting up a secret plan to join the side of Cranerja during the Western Power's war against Impero Romano. This was because the CUC believed the Western Powers was corrupt for forcing other factions to do their bidding, and that their rules were unfair. By joining the war on Impero Romano's side, the CUC hoped to expose the Western Powers for what it really was. Cobra103play and Epic\_\_y had created a small group chat with Samy112 and a small amount of other players that were to be trusted to carry out the plan. However, Samy112 decided to expose the group chat to the rest of the Western Powers. As a result of this, the CUC was kicked from the Western Powers for seeking to commit treason against them, and the Western Powers declared war on the CUC. A planned battle was negotiated to be hosted the next day at 5:00 PST on July 6, 2020.

#### July 6, 2020 - The Big Battle against the Western Powers

Before the big battle was supposed to occur, WashWave managed to convince Lloyd\_Lyle to inside the CUC by burning down Carolina City, Chair City, and the Mississippi town that Cobra103play had built during the CUC Civil War. Lloyd\_Lyle even attempted to unclaim all of the CUC's land, but Cobra103play had prevented that from happening with the perms he set for the faction. Eventually Lloyd\_Lyle was kicked from the CUC for treason and for low power. As the big battle time approached, the CUC realized that they wouldn't have any allies come to their aid, so they accepted the reality that they were in the fight alone. Epic\_\_y, Cobra103play, and Super\_MAC7 had planned to defend the CUC, however Super\_MAC7 had to go ten minutes before the big battle began, leaving only Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play to defend the CUC. The CUC was now up against Britannia, Cascadia, Florida, the Texan Empire, and New Riga which all added up to being the Western Powers. California did participate in the war as well, but declared themselves to be a referee. As the big battle was about to begin, Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play knew that the Western Powers were planning to attack the CUC in either Maine or Carolina City, so to buy some time, Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play teleported to the CUC territory in the Bay Area of California, and went up to a random hill to build a quick and small fort. Western Powers forces soon grouped up in southern California, to which they then made the trek up to the northern Bay Area to meet up with Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play. Cobra103play fired the first shot at FriedBoJangles, and that marked the official start of the battle. Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play saw that they were in for a 2v11, and they ultimately knew that they were going to lose the battle and the war as a whole. As the battle carried on, Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play continued to fight, and they held their ground for a while. Cobra103play was the first to get killed, and soon after Epic\_\_y was next. Right after Epic\_\_y's death, the CUC surrendered to the Western Powers. A peace treaty was then signed, with the terms being that the CUC would give up all claims in California, and that they would become a puppet state of Florida. Jambokki was to be assigned the role of President of the CUC. The CUC accepted the terms, and signed the treaty, making their puppet state status to Florida official.

#### July 19-21, 2020 - Virginia seeks Independence from the CUC

On July 19, 2020, Super\_MAC7 who was the governor of Virginia, had expressed his interest in having his state go independent from the CUC. As Super\_MAC7 expressed his interest, Cascadia had claimed a chunk next to Virginia, leading the CUC to get suspicious about it. The CUC asked Cascadia to remove the claim, however Cascadia refused. A day after Super\_MAC7 had interest in going independent, he changed his mind and decided to stay with the CUC. On July 21, 2020, Cascadia accused the CUC of claimblocking their chunk next to Virginia, and soon after the CUC was forced to remove the claimblock in order to comply with the server rules. Right after the CUC removed the claimblock, Cascadia expanded on their claim, and stated that they were planning to build a diplomatic center there in order to make the claim legitimate. Cascadia's decision to build a diplomatic center next to the CUC was not authorized by both the CUC and Florida, and Cascadia still refused to remove the claim after Florida asked them to. Epic\_\_y and Cobra103play built a wall on their border with Cascadia, but then Cascadia blew up part of it, which injured Cobra103play. Finally, PHTS got involved in the situation and told Cascadia to remove the claim, and they did.

#### July 23, 2020 - The Return of Snowland

After a long period of time, Snowland had made a comeback to the server, and settled down in Taiwan. Their goals were to kill people for fun, create "cuc ocean", and kill Cobra103play. The CUC didn't really take Snowland's threats seriously, as they didn't think much of them or their return.

#### July 26, 2020 - The Third War against Snowland

On July 26, 2020, Chair123 declared that he was leaving the CUC to join Snowland. Soon after Chair left the CUC, BrissBrass was caught flying over the CUC. Florida helped the CUC enforce its no trespassing law, and together they successfully kicked BrissBrass of CUC territory. This led to a war being declared between the CUC and Snowland, however both sides agreed to pause the war. During the course of the war, no battles took place.

#### July 28, 2020 - The Internal Political Party Map Agreement

As the Fascist Party (later to be known as the Rezoalist Party) in the CUC gained more power, an agreement between them and the incumbent Republican Party was made. The northern states would be fascist, while the southern states would be Republican. The ultimate goal was to make the Fascists and Republicans politically equal.

#### July 30, 2020 - The server temporarily Shuts Down

Woozer had announced that the server was going to temporarily shut down from July 30 to August 17, as the server was moving to a new physical location. Once the server had reopened, it was essentially dead until it closed down for good on October 31, 2020. However, some last minute things for the CUC did occur in early October 2020.

### October 2020

On October 7, 2020, the CUC had lost a significant amount of power to become pillagable, so California took the opportunity to pillage and raid Carolina City, in hopes of boosting the server's activity. After California occupied Carolina City, the CUC got backup help from Florida in an effort to fight off both California and its ally New Riga. Ironblock1 and KingMavic both ran away from any attempted fight that was made by the CUC or Florida. By the end of the day peace negotiations were held, however the CUC refused California's peace offer.

### The Legacy of the CUC

After the server had shut down permanently on October 31, 2020, the CUC left a long lasting legacy for the server's history, and on other servers as well. Many lessons were learned throughout the course of the CUC's life on GeoMC.io, but it helped shape the CUC into what it was once the server had finally shut down. Although the CUC does not exist directly on any server as of now, its memory and legacy will forever live on.
