=== Mount September Ice Road Conflict ===

''Main Article: [[Mount September Ice Road Conflict]]''
In late August 2021, a conflict erupted in Mount September which would pit the [[Augustan Federation]] and the [[UDF]] against one another. This conflict started when [[minemaster933]] sued [[SirTwiggles]] for harassment after the latter had supposedly purposefully set off @everyone snitches near [[NebulaSSR|Nebuland]]'s bunker. During the trial, the UDF-owned Boomer Iceroad was brought up in the argument that using the iceroad set off the @everyone snitch, and UDF members interpreted the end of the trial, finding SirTwiggles guilty, as a threat to their use of the iceroad. Tensions peaked on August 26, when a large group of armed UDF members appeared at the ice road, seemingly ready to attack Nebula's bunker. However, tensions cooled as no side made a move towards the other, and UDF members eventually left. While KingOfTheMochas, NebulaSSR and Minemaster933 remained banned from the iceroad, the situation was dealt with without major armed conflict.
The conflict strengthened the perceived need for MtS to have a more advanced defense system in place and renewed efforts were made to achieve this.
=== KingOfTheMocha's Mayorship ===
Thraldrek did not seek reelection following his first term, leaving no clear successor as no member of his cabinet ran for his position. [[KingOfTheMochas]], a relative newcomer to MtS who was serving as a Judge at the time, received the most votes and was elected Mayor on September 17th, 2021. KingOfTheMochas has shown to prioritize the militarization of MtS, overseeing a rapid increase in military infrastructure, including focusing significant effort on the completion of the [[AF Vault]]. Interestingly, KingOfTheMochas reduced the size of the cupboard significantly, centralizing many roles, notably defense, into the Cup of State. Politically, KingOfTheMochas has been more vocally opposed to "[[World Police (CivClassic)|World Police]]" compared to his predecessors, but has also overseen increased diplomatic communication with the world's alliances, such as the [[CES]] and the [[UDF]].
KingOfTheMochas successfully ran for re-election in the end of the November 2021 under the banner of the Septembrian Labor Party, however his second term has proved tumultuous for him.
It was during Mochas's second term that [[Gabon]] and [[Lusitania (CivClassic 2.0)|Lusitania]] decided to leave the Augustan Federation, in late November and early December 2021 respectively, after multiple incidents. Both countries perceived the Federation as being nontransparent and not neutral, despite its claims to be. A recall vote was called by [[NebulaSSR]]<ref>{{Cite Discord message|sender=NEBULA|sender-link=NebulaSSR|date=November 30, 2021|text=[Recall] KingOfTheMochas (I am not registered and will not vote)|url=https://discord.com/channels/742831212711772261/756568519407042611/915376924455473154|server=Mount September|channel=elections|access-date=January 18, 2021}}</ref> and several by [[Minemaster933]]<ref>{{Cite Discord message|sender-link=Minemaster933|sender=minemaster933|date=October 22, 2021|text=[recall] kingofthemochas|url=https://discord.com/channels/742831212711772261/756568519407042611/901309493693009920|channel=elections|server=Mount September|access-date=January 18, 2022}}</ref><ref>{{Cite Discord message|sender-link=Minemaster933|sender=minemaster933|date=November 1, 2021|text=[recall] kingofthemochas|url=https://discord.com/channels/742831212711772261/756568519407042611/904913344442564608|channel=elections|server=Mount September|access-date=January 18, 2022}}</ref> to remove Mochas from the position of Mayor, but did not succeed.

PacStatue is a statue located in Mount September that has become an iconic structure amongst Septembrians.
===Currency
On the 28th of October 2020, the septem ($) and its subdivision, the yiseptem (￥)was created by AllenY. While still technically a private venture, the septem is widely accepted as the semi-official local currency. The septem is used in various shops inside the Mount September mall.

====Squareblob's Discord Profile Picture and the Squarist Deep State====
[[File:SquareDiscord.png|left|thumb|153x153px|Square's iconic discord profile picture]]
[[Squareblob]]'s discord profile picture is very recognizable in MtS, and a customized version was adopted by Metriximor, which made the dog blue and added a black "M" on it's forehead. Since early 2021, a trend was formed around making a custom Square discord profile picture, and this in turn led to running joke about there being a "dog deep state" or "
==== Special Discord Roles ====
The cultural interest of MtS in recruiting newfriends gave birth to many projects, including SeptBot, a discord-minecraft bot that automatically messaged accounts that joined the server for the first time<ref>{{Cite Discord message|sender-link=Squareblob|sender=Squareblob|date=October 27, 2020|url=https://discord.com/channels/742831212711772261/770663353542377522/770665857453260800|text=There is a new category at the bottom of the discord called relay. All new players are messaged by our bot, and any replies are relayed between discord and civclassic.|server=Mount September|access-date=January 1, 2022|channel=newfriend-committee}}</ref> (although much of the infrastructure required for this had already been [https://github.com/CivCallCenter implemented]). The bot also acted as a proxy for communicating with the new joins in real time, using unique discord channels as interface. To avoid spam (and after a particular event in which a banned player attempted to communicate through the bot), only users with the ''relay'' role could send messages.
Several months later, the admins announced that [!] (by then the de-facto "global" chat) would be moderated and act as an official global channel, with new players getting automatically added to it. Squareblob announced the end of SeptBot's newfriend messaging functionality on January 1st, 2021<ref>{{Cite Discord message|sender-link=Squareblob|sender=Squareblob|date=January 1, 2021|url=https://discord.com/channels/742831212711772261/770663353542377522/794750685610246175|text=I disabled SeptBot messaging new joins. Before newfriends were automatically added to [!] chat there was a bit more use for this and a reasonable response rate but now I think it has outlived its purpose. The relay channel category will continue relaying messages to/from the bot|channel=newfriend-committee|server=Mount September|access-date=January 21, 2022}}</ref>.
The discord channnel and role were recycled into ''newfriend-committee'' by Godomasta, an attempt at rewarding newfriends for good activity and behavior. By then one of the most active newfriends was [[Minemaster933]], which prompted Godomasta to request his collaboration in the endeavor<ref>{{Cite Discord message|sender-link=Godomasta|sender=Godomasta|date=March 9, 2021|url=https://discord.com/channels/742831212711772261/770663353542377522/818864947726778379|text=as minemaster and I have discussed, the main aims of the committe would be:
*Recognizing newfriends with an industrious character that place an active effort in improving and maintaining Mount September.
*Promoting activity and citizenry through activities such as events and collective projects.
*Making all new prospective residents feel welcome in Mount September and the server.|channel=newfriend-committee|server=Mount September|access-date=January 21, 2022}}</ref>. The project would only meet symbolic success, as minemaster would later become a very controversial player. Ironically, no newfriend ever received the newfriend-committee role (except for minemaster).
AllenY, then judge, used the channel to grant ''Honourary Doctorate of Letters'', an amusing discord role.
