History
Estalia, after announcing they would settle near 0,0 before the start of the server[1], announced their claims on the 3rd of June 2022[2], and expanded them 6 days later[3] to become the largest nation by area at the time, according to u/prawny331[4], with an estimated area of about 175 000 km2.
Conflict with Communion of Kū
On June 18th, Black_Fusion, a member of Kū's government, made a post to r/CivMC accusing of Estalia of killing Kū officials (himself) in their own claims,[5] providing a detailed explanation of events connected to his pearling by Estalia. Per Black_Fusion, he discovered a tunnel underneath the city of Kū-Lani while mining. When returning to explore the tunnel Black_Fusion was briefly pearled by 3 Estalians ZabeKabir, Watermashen, and ThePayman,[6][7] with those who pearled him having thought he had previously been warned not to enter the tunnel. Black_Fusion indicated that his nation, before the incident, did not want to escalate any tensions with Estalia and offered to relocate the tunnel around Kū's claims in a gesture of good-faith.
Prior to this incident, Estalia had claimed and built infrastructure on land that Black_Fusion says was "already marked by posts labeled "Communion of Kū",[5][8] accusing Estalia of knowingly ignoring their nation's claims and building around any stone-reinforced areas on the island.
Estalia made their own post,[7] stating that Kū officials had been inconsistent on whether or not they could keep the tunnel, that Estalia had sent demands[9] (including the stipulations "Ku will not cede sovereignty to any group[...]" and "Ku will not allow foreign parties to operate from the islands", "Kū" being misspelled) that had been refused, and that the nation of Kū had been annexed and its people relocated, with as many as 11 players sent to annex the territory.
War with Rhode Island
Main Article: Estalia-Rhode Island War
Since July 25th 2022, Estalia has been engaged in a large-scale war with Rhode Island, with the war stemming from an incident in which Rhode Islander Bob_the_Builder was followed by Estalian forces after having tresspassed on Estalian land[10], despite previous warnings, leading to a group fight resulting in the pearling of other Rhode Islander Capri.
Continous raids and attacks by both sides from July 25th onwards, including the very controversial obby-bombing and griefing of the Estalian trading hub of 0,0[11], led to Rhode Island amassing a large amount of casualties[12][13][14], with Estalia having no pearled fighters until August 5th, when ThePayman was pearled by Rhode Island forces.[15]
Estalian Myths and Lore
The Emperor of Mankind
The Emperor of Mankind, often referred to by His faithful as the "God-King Eternal undying Emperor," the "Master of Loot," or simply "the Emperor," and who sometimes referred to Himself as "Loot Master," is the immortal Perpetual and tier 0 who serves as the reigning monarch of the Imperium of Estalia, and is described by the Imperial Ecclesiarchy and the Imperial Cult as the Father, Guardian and God of Humanity.
The Zoomer Chaos Gods and the Vpners of CIVMC refer to Him as "Gregy" for He is the greatest embodiment of universal order in the galaxy today and the most potent foe of the Zoomers in existence. He was, and remains, the most powerful World police officer to have ever been born.
He has sat immobile, His body slowly crumbling, within the Golden Throne of Wakanda for over 10,000 standard years. Although once a living man, His shattered, decaying body can no longer support life, and it is kept intact only by the cybernetic mechanisms of the Golden Throne and a potent mind itself sustained by the daily sacrifice of thousands of Diamonds.
The Emperor chose to sacrifice His immortal life at the end of the Lexington War in the service and protection of Mankind. To Humanity's countless trillions across the galaxy-spanning Imperium, He is nothing less than God. Through His Imperium, Humanity is united and remains one of the most powerful intelligent species in the +,+ as well as its most dominant in terms of both population and territory held.
United under one government, Mankind is able to survive the myriad deadly threats it faces from Pvpers, New friends and the Non-believers, Heretics and zoomers that lie within the Imperium's boundaries.
His mind must remain vigilant at all times throughout the entire Imperium to safeguard the Human race and to offer His protection to the faithful. Above all else, it is Mankind's collective belief in the Emperor's divinity that serves as its greatest protection from raiders and the other hideous dangers that plague the world. As the Imperial Creed has taught for over 10,000 standard years, the Emperor protects...

The Primarchs
IS4NTRA aka Roboute Guilliman
Why do I still live? What more do you want from me? I gave everything I had to you, to them. Look what they've made of our dream. This bloated, rotting carcass of an empire is driven not by reason and hope but by fear, hate and ignorance. Better that we had all burned in the fires of Horus' ambition than live to see this."
— Roboute Guilliman (Warhammer 40k)
Roboute Guilliman (pronounced I-S-ANT-RA), sometimes referred to as the "Avenging Son," "The Victorious," "The Master of Mir" and "The Blade of Unity," is the primarch of the Estalian Space Marine Legion and its myriad subsequent Successor Chapters. He is the current lord commander of the Imperium and the ruling Imperial Regent.
Held by some as a paragon among the Emperor's sons, Roboute Guilliman was as much a patrician statesman and empire-builder as he was an indefatigable warrior.
A being of preternatural intelligence, cold reason and indomitable will, Guilliman forged his XIIIth Legion into a vast force of conquest and control, a weapon by which he made himself the master of a stellar domain in the Eastern Fringe of the galaxy, the Realm of Mir, which during his lifetime spanned nine thousand blocks.
Before He began His conquest of the Civclassics, the Emperor of Mankind created the primarchs. Utilising incredible skills at genetic engineering, and the phenomenal psychic power bound into His own form, He forged twenty demigod sons. These were superlative transhuman warriors, strategists and leaders, the finest qualities of Humanity refined in the crucible of science and magnified through the lens of divinity.

Lysika_Lanterial aka Fulgrim
That which causes us trials shall yield us triumph, and that which makes our hearts ache shall fill us with gladness. For the only true happiness is to learn, to advance and to improve. None of this could happen without rejecting error, ignorance and imperfection. We must pass out of the darkness to reach the light!
Fulgrim (pronounced Wl-iska), also known in the time before Eagle crew Heresy as "Lysika_Lantariel," is the primarch of the Emperor's Mir Legion. He possessed silvery-white hair and was quite vainglorious, as his entire life was dedicated to the pursuit of perfection in all things; physical, mental and spiritual.
Today, Fulgrim is a four-armed, serpentine Daemon Prince of Mir who is believed to reside on a Pirate ship somewhere within the pirate isles.
Unknown to almost all, including his own Chaos Space Marines, Fulgrim expressed remorse, repenting his corruption by the Ruinous Powers during the Drop Site Massacre on Orion during the opening days of the Titan Heresy nearly ten millennia ago.
A Greater Daemon of XP-Land residing within the Blade of Sanctaphrax, a Chaos artefact within Fulgrim's possession at the time, took advantage of this brief mental weakness to possess his body for a time, but Fulgrim used his spiritual imprisonment to further explore the power of Chaos and eventually turned the tables on the Daemon and forced it into an imprisonment of its own to regain control of his body.

Walkers aka Lorgar
"All I ever wanted was the truth. Remember those words as you read the ones that follow. I never set out to topple my father's kingdom of lies from a sense of misplaced pride. I never wanted to bleed the species to its marrow, reaving half the galaxy clean of human life in this bitter crusade. I never desired any of this, though I know the reasons for which it must be done. But all I ever wanted was the truth."
— Lorgor Aurelian (Warhammer 40k)
Walkers, also once called Lorgar Aurelian and the Chicken god (Colchisian for "wisest of the wise") before the Veritas Heresy, is a Daemon Prince of Estalia Undivided and the Primarch of the chicken cape Bearers Legion.
Always determined to uplift humanity through a deep belief in the divine, once the Emperor of Mankind rejected his attempts at seduction, Lorgar discovered new gods more worthy of his devotion, the Ruinous Powers of Veritas, during his infamous Pilgrimage.
He was the first Primarch of the Space Marine Legions to fall to the corruption of chicken before the Veritas Heresy and it was he who ordered the corruption of the Warhampter IS4NTA.
He and his large Chicken Legion of Word Bearers Heretic Astartes can today be found on the Daemon World of Estalia.

Culture
National Holidays
Each week, Estalia observes their two national holidays: Donut Day and Good Morning Walkers Day.
Donut Day
The first Donut Day was declared and recognized on Wednesday, September 7th, 2022 by Emperor God-King Gregy165.[16] Estalians have continued to come together to celebrate their camaraderie and shared love of the ultimate pastry every week since the holiday's initial observation. Donut Day serves as a perennial reminder to all citizens that the Estalian bond is the most precious thing this world has to offer and that it must be preserved at all costs. Weekly Donut Day attendance is recorded into and forever memorialized in the Estalian Historical and Archeological Preservation Committee's (EHAP) Database.

Good Morning Walkers Day
The first Good Morning Walkers Day was declared and recognized on Friday, September 30th, 2022 by both Emperor God-King Gregy165 and all Estalians alike.[17] Every Friday, Estalia honors their Chicken God Walkers with a warm "good morning" message. Although this is only a simple gesture when compared to the labor and dedication Walkers graces Estalia with daily, it is the least the Estalian citizens can do to begin to thank him.
Estalian of the Week
2023 was a week of huge W's so The Primarchs decided to give the an "Estalian of the Week" award to the most based Estalian of that week:

The Core Members
Acuhdemiic aka Darkin
Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, and intelligent execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives. Choice, not chance, determines your destiny. In our time no has the conception of greatness. It is up to me to show them. - Aristotle
Acuhdemiic is a new friend who met the mighty titans of Estalia. With the guidance of Lysika_Lanterial, Walkers, Gregy165, S4nta, Rinusky, and Chosentwice they were able to create a perfect soldier who seeks nothing in return but to see his nation prosper. The origins were of Acuhdemiic were thought to be lost in time. It was a great mystery due to his latent abilities having no peculiar origin until the day it all made sense. Upon excavation of a secret temple they have discovered his origins. Acuhdemiic wields The Blade of Millenia, Darkins are Old Gods who's power and soul have been trapped into weapons in order to stop their reign of terror. Usually when a Darkin weapon is wielded by a mortal the power consumes him, subsequently the mind and soul are taken over.... that is not the case for Acuhdemiic. Acuhdemiic's conjured fingers of darkness that snatched up the weapon, lifting it into the night and spinning it into his waiting hands. It felt like a part of him, like it had always been a part of him, as if he alone was born to wield it. He has harnessed the power and is now it's master. Present time, Acuhdemiic is an essential member of Estalia and making his teachers proud. Married before The Generic War to Queen of New Jersey CutePastelStars.
