==== Founding and the Corum Years (Early 2013) ====
[[Lottosprayer]] and [[HorizonLeap]] founded Iria in 2.0 and were soon joined by [[Wolfeyes|Wolf]]. Iria grew quickly and greatly benefited from trade.
However the release of greifers from the Valkyria [[vault]] led to the decline of the Corum region Iria was situated in.
Though Iria's allies may have fallen Iria kept growing. Soon the nearby Kilfordshire was annexed.
==== The Post-Corum Years (Mid 2013) ====
In mid 2013 this growth came to an end. Lottosprayer, the designer of Iria's -and one of the servers-largest structures, a giant cathedral, quit. This symbolic failure corresponded with an ineffective council and eventually Iria saw its darkest hours. INF raiders occupied the town, pearled citizens and destroyed most wealth.
==== The Revival Years (Early 2014) ====
Line 50 ⟶ 28:
==== The Renaissance Years (Mid 2014) ====
[[File:Iriacivcraftgathering.png|thumb|Irians gather on the steps]]
The [[North East Alliance|NEA]] is created, uniting Iria with Fellowship, [[Garundistan]], [[Bryn]] and others.
==== Iria Will Burn: The BMB War (mid-late 2014) ====
In mid-2014, Iria had a modestly large population, and a strong local economy. Then, a raiding gang who called themselves "The BMB" entered the picture. While poorly armed, they had large numbers. Their tactic of lighting everything in sight on fire was also devastating for Iria, which extensively used flammable wood materials in house construction. The recently completed Providence district of Iria mostly burned to the ground. Many Irians fled, with prominent Irian citizens Tamblers, Fraelyn and Michael leaving to start a new town under Iria that would become known as Sunder. Those who remained were determined, and one Irian, CD, famously put a sign outside house house that read “BMB proof”. The BMB continued to strike Iria, and left signs of their own, placing many signs threatening Iria with messages such as “Iria will burn.” Eventually the BMB were defeated and their base, Stormgarde, was destroyed. The Irians who remained came together to rebuild form the ashes. Many moons later, travelers would still report finding the odd “Iria will burn” sign in the forests and mountains around Iria.
==== The Eagle Crew War (late 2014) ====
Sometime after the BMB War, Iria had recovered, and Sunder had become a successful town in its own right. Iria had made friends with an industrious new town in the east,
A new raider threat emerged, lead by two raiders named Eagle_Girl and Lysika_Lantariel, they began attacking Iria on a nightly basis, and our ally to the south, Fellowship. Unfortunately deadkind was nowhere to be found. But new fighters within Iria and Fellowship such as Jumpysnake and BlackXnt helped protect the town, reducing losses. As Eagle and Lysika enlarged their posse and began hitting new towns and even [[Vault|vaults]], Irians remained active in guerrilla attacks against the raiders, particularly a new Irian, TangentialThreat. There were battles in many places, including the snow plains east of Weldon, and Lindor Island, a trading partner of Iria's, located next to Hjaltland. As Eagle Crew increased their power they set up a [[vault]], which Iria snitched. Tangent, Jumpysnake, Tamblers, Fraelyn and the leader of Hjaltland, BlueSylvaer, launched a guerrilla attack against Eagle_Girl and an accomplice, trapping her in a fall trap. While her accomplice was killed, Eagle escaped using ingenious tactics.
There was also a diplomatic crisis in this period, when Sintralin - the leader of Fellowship and Chair of the NEA was suspected of being complicit in the Eagle crew attacks. Eventually Marfinator, a member of Eagle Crew was pearled. The attacks on Iria and Fellowship stopped. Later that week Eagle_Crew were seen heading to Aran to meet up with ex ReCharge members - the following month the America HCF invasion began, left by Eagle Girl and Lysika Lantariel. Sometime through the invasion it was revealed that Lysika_Lantariel was in fact Deadkind.

==== The Next Generation ====
Iria was among the states who migrated from Devoted, with the large majority of Devoted Irians joining Iria on CivClassics. Migrants included [[Bellamorte|Bella]], [[Anon00014|Anon]], [[LadyKat]], [[Retyu]], [[7Tys7]], [[ElementKZ]], [[PopKoren]] (aka x3pnZ). Some went to other states, including [[John3112]]. Some, including [[Wolfeyes]], were lost in the shuffle, and disappeared. PopKoren, a former Almuj refugee, was the only one left who had been a member of Iria during Civcraft 2.0. A new generation was now leading Iria, but they very much retained the spirit and values of their forefathers.
==== Exodus From Normandy ====
They would also face similar challenges. Initially, Iria set up in a redwood forest in the shallow plus minus. The Irians named this settlement Normandy. However land was tightly contested in this area, and not all neighbors were particularly neighborly. Normandy was raided. In a difficult discussion, the Irians decided they should flee their fleeting homeland for greener pastures. The scouting process began, and eventually a location in the deep plus minus was selected. The new home of the Irians was a chain of small and diverse islands, which would be hospitable for XP production. It was also nearby the town in which friend of Iria John3112 had settled, Anguish. The outlying jungle of [[Aynor]] was settled by ElementKZ.

==== Nationalism Lifts Iria ====
In late December, a new breed of Nationalism swept Iria as returning Devoted Irian
==Contemporary Iria==
[[File:Iria June 2019.png|alt=|thumb|Iria as of June 2019]]
Iria's main island is a collection of 3 mesa plateua biomes and a sunflower plains that acts as a valley dividing 2 of the plateaus.
=== The Housing District ===
Iria's main island is divided into 2 districts, each with it's distinct path colour. The most southern district is most commonly known as the housing district, this is Iria's most orderly district with the most notable builds being: Retyu's house, The Irian history museum and an Order of Saint Marcus lodge.
[[File:Cheesebubbles monument.png|thumb|The Defem monument and the text with it.]]
=== The Market District ===
Originally this part of the island was supposed to contain shops. But instead it was used to give new players more freedom by allowing them to build their own houses. notably the only shop in the market district is still as of july 2019 the terracotta store. other notable builds include: The national railstation, Wolfsteels's house, [[Ofunkown]]'s temple and a monument to the civcraft 3.0 state of Defem and it's judicious leader, Cheesebubbles.
=== Iria's Internation Rail Station ===
[[File:IriaStationBadRender.png|thumb|Irian international rail before roof construction]]Inside an ice cavern under new Iria lays the International rail station, also known as the servers biggest rail station. It was designed by Retyu, Iria's main builder at the time. Construction of the rail station proved difficult, undertaking such a large project was no easy task and several spikes of inactivity caused the project to be delayed even more. However, after a lot of hard work, the Rail station is now mostly complete with only a few construction task remaining.
