The '''[[World Police]]''' (abbreviated '''WP''') has been a label used to describe various people, groups, and organizations throughout almost all of Civ history. The uniting characteristic of those who've earned the moniker "World Police", whether organized or unorganized is the heavy involvement in international combat operations. This usually involves bounty hunting raiders but also more notably taking part in wars against PVP-oriented groups, such as the [[HCF]]. The origins of the World Police date back to the formal organisation that bared the name on [[Civcraft 1.0]], evolving into a more informal network of fighters on [[Civcraft 2.0]] before becoming the formal patchwork of alliances of nations on [[CivClassic 2.0]] that most are familiar with. Across all servers, opinions on the WP are mixed as many not only associate them with crime fighting but also alt-raiding, sovereignty-breaching, and permapearling.

A screenshot of World Police fighters breaking the Nox vault during Civcraft 2.0.

The World Police (abbreviated WP) has been a label used to describe various people, groups, and organizations throughout almost all of Civ history. The uniting characteristic of those who've earned the moniker "World Police", whether organized or unorganized is the heavy involvement in international combat operations. This usually involves bounty hunting raiders but also more notably taking part in wars against PVP-oriented groups, such as the HCF. The origins of the World Police date back to the formal organisation that beared the name on Civcraft 1.0, evolving into a more informal network of fighters on Civcraft 2.0 before becoming the formal patchwork of alliances of nations on CivClassic 2.0 that most are familiar with. Across all servers, opinions on the WP are mixed as many not only associate them with crime fighting but also alt-raiding, sovereignty-breaching, and permapearling. (Full article...)
