Acadia has since its conception been a culturally rich but diverse nation, deeply influenced by earlier nations; most notably [[Adina]], [[Moloka]], and [[Javaya]] on one hand, and [[Norlund]] on the other hand. For many Acadians, their Acadian identity is tied to the cultures of the aforementioned nations, and the [[Tahar]] language and the [[Indoja]] religion (in Acadia established as [[Ashahara]]) have since the nation´s inception played a central role in Acadia´s national identity. However, when Acadia moved from CivUniverse to CivClassics in early 2021, it was inevitable that given enough time Acadia´s cultural fabric would eventually see new influences from different cultures.

The 9th of July was a historic day for Acadia, as [[Columbia]] built an embassy in [[New Turing]], Acadia´s first hosting embassy, featuring a kickback trap to help catch the altraiders [[The druid|Druid]] and [[JayTeeR]] who had been plaguing Acadia and [[Kingdom of Fish|Fish]] with their raids amidst a larger wave of raids in Acadia.<ref>[https://imgur.com/a/v1FdbMq The Establishment of the Columbian Embassy]</ref> Next to their embassy the Columbians had build a G made out of unreinforced dirt blocks, a symbol of their devotion to g-posting. This was the moment when the tradition of g was first introduced to Acadia. The dirt G remained untouched for many weeks until it eventually was removed to make space for urban development. However, while the G was easily removed, it would not be as easily forgotten.

On August 18 Acadian citizen [[Tomattan]] asked then Prime Minister [[Bloof]] to create a g-posting channel ´´...or something´´ on Acadia´s discord server, which was promptly provided.<ref>[https://imgur.com/a/i633b9r The Birth of the Acadian G-Posting Channel]</ref> The channel proved a great succes with many g´s posted immediately after its creation, by many different Acadians as well as foreigners joining in on the fun. However, not long after, resistance to this cultural import began to mount and some people began to post other letters and strange symbols, griefing the wholesome devotion of the channel. [[Kannon]] himself, at the time just a citizen of Acadia, posted the first j, also the first anti-g character posted in the channel, marking the beginning of the cultural divide.<ref>[https://imgur.com/a/sYTgE96 The Beginning of J]</ref> The opposition to g continued from that day on, though in the next few weeks it initially lost much of its fervor. During this time however, j succesfully managed to establish itself as the leading opponent of g.
