In March of 2019, ChrisChrispie became active on the Civcraft community again after 2 years of inactivity and traveled to the -,- with the intention on joining Bloom and running for their Parliament. However, these plans did not pan out and after consulting with Varkonian leader Mickale, a tract of land over what once was Antietam Isles and Nexus was granted to ChrisChrispie to re-establish Icenia. The re-establishment of Icenia occurred on March 11, 2019, and was announced to the Subreddit that night.

===Early Icenian History (March 2019)===
===Pre-Constitution Era (March 2019)===
Icenia's early development was initiated by ChrisChrispie shortly after Icenia's announcement in regards to their existence went public. Despite the notoriety of Icenia as a nation, most players on the server were well established and not many wanted to make the trek out to the then backwoods country. Thus, ChrisChrispie was alone when he built the first building in Icenia; a dirt shack on the beach. Slowly new players started to join the nation. The first few came from Musicbook, where ChrisChrispie was well known, but did not stick around for long. DarkMalivas was the first non-musicbook member to join the nation and built Icenia's first residential complex-the Sandstone Tower. The Sandstone Tower would later draw the ire of most Icenians as being an eyesore upon the expanding harbor skyline. Eventually, it was torn down after standing for three months to make way for Icenia's own Corvus shop.

It was around this time that Icenia began to develop its Chan influence when DreadedNova, a previous citizen of Polynesia in Civcraft 2.0, joined the nation and quickly moved up the ranks to become assistant leader of Icenia during its Pre-Constitution era. DreadedNova would go on to invite other players from various 4chan associated Minecraft servers and soon Icenia began to grow at a quick pace-but nothing compared to what would later come. LordChieftain would join during this era too. During this time Icenia saw growth along Gapplar Drive-then considered the central hub of Icenian development. DreadedNova would build his windmill during this time and LordChieftain would construct the "Cobble Castle" - the first stage of a planned city development that would have made Icenia a walled and compact city. This never plan never came to fruition.

The Cobble Castle would later be torn down, and its basement used for the Icenian Space Needle-a massive skybunker complex which serves as the central station of command for the Icenian Militia.


=== Icenian Population Boom ===
=== First Icenian Population Boom (April 2019) ===
Icenia began experiencing a population boom at the end of March 2019. It was during this time that many [[Sovia|Sovians]] established duel citizenship within Icenia including Pirater, Gamephobic, iakwai, and others. Icenia had also around this time completed a rail line to Bloom, which had just closed its borders to new players after continuing alt-raids caused issues for the nation. This caused many new players not associated with Sovia to join Icenia as well, given the fact that it was the closest active nation to Bloom in the region.

Relations collapsed in mid June of 2019, when Swiftfizz and many other New Sovians entered Icenian territory and entered restricted land, later spamming the coordinates of this area in the in-game global group chat, Civclassic discord, and Civclassic subreddit. This resulted in Swiftfizz's banning from Icenia under the newly passed 'Reasonable Suspicion Act'. Days later, a player by the name of mugo would be pearled in New Sovia for carrying TNT on his person. This player would later be revealed to be an alt account of LordChieftain. A few days later the conflict heated up into what is known as the 'Clown Wars'.

A peace deal between the two nations was signed June, 26th, 2019 after Icenia placed an 800 diamond bounty on Swiftfizz.

* SwiftFizz’s bounty shall be removed with immediate effect.
* Icenia will lift the ban on New Sovians entering Icenia effective immediately
* The state of New Sovia will return Quanton's inventory which includes a god loadout. As agreed to by both sides.
* All New Sovians who are banned from having citizenship will continue to be so for another month, at which point if they so wish to become a citizen the grand council of Icenia will determine whether or not to lift their ban.
* Icenia retains the right to consider this agreement null and void if New Sovia ignores Government officials requests to leave restricted areas or to leave Icenia when requested.
