From the Featured Article A screenshot of Icenia's Olympic Stadium as promotion for the Fifth Olympics, taken by MinerRick. The Olympics held on CivClassic 2.0 were a recurring large scale community-run sports event. The events were inspired by their real life counterpart, as well as earlier attempts on Civcraft 2.0. The First Olympics was created by the Olympic Committee created by WackyAki and Feathercrown and held in the Olympic Village in Yoahtl in summer 2018. Subsequent iterations were held in The Commonwealth, Gensokyo, and Mount Augusta, with independent organizers, new venues, and different events for each iteration. Mainstay events included Spleef, Thimble, and PvP. The Fifth Olympics was initially planned to be held in Columbia, however after a civil war and the outbreak of the Infinity War, the games were indefinitely postponed. Icenia announced in May 2021 that they would assume hosting duties for the Fifth Olympics, which would be held the next month. Columbia was finally able to host the Sixth Olympics in the country in December 2021 during the waning days of the server. Currently, no Olympics have been announced for CivMC. (Full article...)

Current Events An ingame screenshot of Pavia showing the large extent of obbybomb in the country. The ongoing Estalia-Rhode Island War has taken a turn towards other nations after failed attacks from Estalia. With Rhode Island's name being changed to the United States of America, the country declared war on Pavia, SPQR, Jorvik, and Moloka. Pavia saw a large obbybombing of the country's major landmarks, and fought off a skybridge on their vault later that day. While USA leadership has stated they did not want to obbybomb them, no effort was made to stop it, stating USA would rather kill the server. The next day, Icenia fought off a large offensive from Rhode Island as well, with much of the city being griefed. Defense minister Lagiacrus was also pearled during the defense of their vault. The next day saw USA fighters successfully break into their vault. So far, no rationale has been given for these attacks besides a minor amount of aid to Estalian efforts; Pavia has for aid from other nations to prevent further damage. Ez2Clutch has been unpearled and switched sides from Estalia to the USA. He has been associated with Vah raiding other nations across the server including Nara, Icenia and Yoahtl. Petrichor officially became part of Icenia after citizens held a vote. Archive More Events (Newsletter) Submit a new current event
