'''The Free City of Pacem''', also known as '''Pacem''', is a city-state in the North-Western quadrant of the CivMC map. The city was founded on June 12th, 2017 as an independent nation on CivClassics, briefly joining greater '''[[Yoahtl]]''' as an autonomous town in May, 2019, and departing on February 23rd, 2020. To this day, Pacem remains an independent state. Since its founding, Pacem has focused on commerce, culture, and diplomacy - the city is a major trading hub within the quadrant. In previous iterations Pacem was widely known for its architecture, museums, and opera house. Today, the citizens of Pacem are working to build a new city greater than before.
In addition to Fortuna, Pacem was the official capital of the [[Pacem Overseas Territories]] on CivClassics.
Pacem’s population is composed of a strong community of players, having played together on several other civilisation servers including CivEx, [[Civcraft]] and SovAsc, concentrating on architecture, culture and diplomacy.

Pacem, in its current form, was founded on CivClassics in mid June 2017. However, Pacem had already existed on CivCraft3.0 as a small town in the Drakontas (swamp) shard. The player base that forms Pacem is even older; having originally met on CivEx2.0, the Pacem population has played on CivCraft3.0, Sovereignty Ascending, CivEx3.0, and CivEx First Light.
Line 55 ⟶ 36:
From its founding, Pacem has been adamantly anti-government. State power is severely limited, and architectural restrictions are the only regulations present within the city state besides a basic guarantee of individual and property rights. As stated on the Pacem welcome board, "Here, the great need not fear the small!".

*'''Architectural Committee'''
The Architectural Committee of Pacem is comprised of a variety of players nominated by the Council of State. The Committee will serve at the pleasure of the State Council, providing architectural aid and feedback to individuals wanting to build in Pacem. While the Council has final authority over buildings constructed in Pacem, the Architectural Committee provides a direct advisory role regarding all matters related to construction.
Line 78 ⟶ 61:
Citizens are appointed to the Architectural Committee by a legislative majority in the Pacem Council of State.

Due to the small and concentrated nature of the city state, Pacem’s road network is highly developed. With most buildings, if not all, within walking distance of one another, Pacem has been able to develop its internal road system to a great extent.
The city is also well connected internationally. The underground rail station is connected directly to Hjaltland, Vinland, and Wayrest; allowing individuals to change to other international rail lines from there. Pacem is also connected to the Great Overland Railway, allowing for quick travel to Yoahtl, Mt. Augusta, and beyond.
