History
Proposals for the SEC date back to discussions that occurred between Icenia and Kallos shortly before the departure of Thomas and Capri from Rhode Island. Icenia and Kallos had entered into a hard alliance prior to this shift in Rhode Island and had a desire to see it expanded to other nations and groups that would promote a "third way" for international diplomacy outside of the dichotomy which existed between Rhode Island (anti-WP) and Estalia (WP). There was also a feeling among Icenian leadership that the MDSC was floundering due to notable departures of individuals such as Shadedoom and LordOfMarzipan to Estalia in order to fight the ongoing Generic War of which Icenia wanted no part, thus the desire for a stronger alliance.
Invasion of Icenia and Tabling of Alliance
By October 15th, Cortesa Del Mar, the AP, Icenia, and Kallos had all mutually agreed upon most of the documentation for the MDSC written by Yodabird. However, Icenia would be invaded by a rebranded Rhode Island and Kallos, being very close to Province, decided to bide their time in order to not meet the same fate. This effectively tabled the alliance as Icenians moved to Titan and later Estalia in order to contribute to the war effort.
End of Generic War and Hard Launch of Alliance
In September 2022, nearly all players associated with USA, and the destruction of Icenia, were banned from the server as a result of "toxicity" and near constant modmails. Icenia would move back to Icenia City, and it was decided at this point to hard-launch the alliance with Southshire included. On September 30th, 2022 votes were made to update the alliance constitution and Enforcer15 was elected to become the alliance's first spokesperson.
Temporal Isles Conflict
The following is ChrisChrispie's late-night work session recollection. It may be a bit biased.
During late 2022 and early 2023, the Temporal Isles were allowed to succeed from Icenia. Rinvincible and ChrisChrispie would negotiate a border around the area of Whole Foods—at the time, the closest thing Icenia had to a vault. Unfortunately, Kallosians DockerImage and Dredd would travel up to Temporal Isles in order to harass PhysicsGamer—predominantly due to the derision Icenians had for him. This resulted in a, justifiable, territorial ban of any Icenians or Kallosians from entering Temporal Isles...which only served to further increase tensions as Icenians built nature preserves on the border to watch PhysicsGamer like he was some sort of animal. Eventually, PhysicsGamer started building a vault on the border with Icenia. This caused Icenia to get pretty upset because of how utterly close it was to Whole Foods (about 50 blocks or so). As such, Icenia rapidly built their own skybunker at Whole Foods. Soon, it was discovered that PhysicsGamer had invited notable shitter and raider ChosenTwice to "consult" on defensive matters after Gang Shi decided to join in on the fun for some reason. All hell broke loose and eventually Gang Shi (notably TruckMan to be exact) solo shitbridged Physics bunker and disabled it. Physics was given a determined time to tear it down—which he really never did I think...I don't know, by this time I was sorta over Civ due to issues with Kallos and Estalia. Regardless of that, most of Physic's population rose up against him (predominantly Icarans) and left Temporal Isles and joined Icenia (which is why Icarus is a state in Icenia). Physics moved a little further north and eventually when Icenia and Gang Shi went to war he'd join up all three times—the third time he'd leak that he was being used as a FOB and Icenia told him to fuck off out of the -,- or get pearled lol.
You might want to ask someone without brainrot about the specifics of this. A lot happened during this time and it honestly broke my brain for a solid 3 months.
Dissolution/Butt-Sex War
The Butt-Sex was began as SEC members chased wanted criminal ChosenTwiceLOL and a SEC member ended up getting pearled and kited to Butternut Vault. The war started out relatively peaceful, with Icenian Slushii even running up to the butt
Following the end of the Butternut–SEC War, the alliance essentially dissolved on June 28, 2023.
