On December 9, 2021, administrator [[TealNerd]] of CivClassic announced that the server would be shutting down on the 18th.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/rc370p/through_the_roof_n_underground/</ref> As the only new Civ server running at the time, most Civ players moved to CivRev in an event known as the [[Great Civclassics Migration]]. Many nations founded during the Early Peace became inactive, which allowed for new nations to rise. The [[Fortuna|Most Serence Republic of Fortuna]] had been founded on December 8th<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/CivRevolution/comments/rc5niv/claims_of_the_most_serene_republic_of_fortuna/</ref> by long-time Civ player [[ComradeNick]] and quickly grew to be one of the most powerful nations due to many other experienced Civ players joining. [[Casson]], [[Sovia (CivRev)|Sovia]], [[Kingdom of Dolphin|Dolphin]], [[Grainview]], and many other nations were founded around the 9th as well. Some of the first conflict arose on the server as [[Fortuna]] claimed all of the area around 0,0 in a 1000 block square, overclaiming previous nations like [[Bergburg]]. As more nations began to be founded around spawn, raiding increased. The most notable event occured when player [[Zach]] attacked and pearled two newfriends in the [[Jomsviking Confederation]], claiming "self-defense" due to Jomsviking previously threatening to pearl him due to his name.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/CivRevolution/comments/rf9f0s/kyle_rittenhouse_crosses_border_into_jomsviking/</ref> On the 14th, Zach (KyleRittenhouse) was pearled by Fortuna.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/CivRevolution/comments/rg0z46/todays_events_concerning_zachs_pearling/</ref> Also at this time, hackers with cheats installed were raiding and pearling players due to the server's anti-cheat not being fully functional. This issue was solved on the 17th as a proper anti-cheat was installed by Owain X.<ref>https://discord.com/channels/824717853834870845/910683593179811930/921427271980580884</ref> A notable war began on the 19th as players [[Savaguard (CivRev)|Savaguard]], led by [[Invader1337]], attacked and raided [[Icarus]] on multiple occasions leading Icarus to officially declare war.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/CivRevolution/comments/riiwo0/icarus_has_become_no_more_than_nomads/</ref> Savaguard claimed that Icarus overclaimed Savaguard land that had been publically posted in the UMP discord whereas Icarus had settled in the area before. This declaration of war was almost immediately followed by the Icarian Federal Army stonebombing the area. The Savaguardian leader Invader1337 was furious, demanding that the groups are to be given at once on the Icarian discord, this was followed by Icarians shitposting the server. The next day, a member of Icarian High Command knows as Deo, seeing the war as useless, decided to make a deal with Invader. In return for the groups, Savaguard was to return stolen valuables and peace was restored.
=== Decline (December 31st -
On the 31st of December 2021, the seed of the server's map (which is a vanilla Minecraft world) was leaked, and players used this to their advantage by taking the coordinates of diamond veins. Owain stated that this was not against the server rules, and because of this and the seemingly slow speed at which hackers were banned, the player count began to drop quickly, with large nations like Fortuna and Casson dissolving.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivRevolution/comments/rtfwep/play_video_games_to_have_fun/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivRevolution/comments/rrham5/unironic_opinion_civrev_is_dying/</ref> Previously controversial players were also banned for criticising and trolling Owain. Very few posts were made during this time period, with a number of newfriends founding new nations only to find a dead server.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivRevolution/comments/s5j02h/dead/</ref>
=== CivRev2 (January 23 - Present) ===
On January 23, 2022, Owain launched a public alpha version of CivRev2, similar to the first CivRev but this time in Minecraft 1.18.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivRevolution/comments/sb5yg8/civrev2_1181_civ_server_now_in_public_alpha/</ref>Contrary to many other Civ severs, both the original CivRev and CivRev2 are online simultaneously.[[File:Excindas ban.png|thumb|Excindas removed reddit post]]
