Sovian History

Formation & Modern Day Sovia

During Devoted 2.0, the Skylandic led by their ruler Pirater united the previously divided lands of Sovia and established a democracy. Using an army of newfriends, Sovia had a rather large population of over 20 people at its peak. Uniting with Arbosia at the end of Devoted 2.0 - Sovia came back during 3.0 and Civclassic respectively. Now led by Pirater and squareblob, Sovia is one of the most relevant and marvelous nations on the Server. A common misconception is that Sovia is named after the Soviet Union - it was actually named after a butterfly genus. Sovia has a diverse culture, influenced by the many types of people in the group today.

Fractured Nation

Due to Pirater's meteoric rise in popularity during the Fractured Nation Era - some Sovians were afraid that the country would soon become a dictatorship. As an Oxeyean, Pirater abdicated to Oxeyean Skyland (very close to Sovia city, but to the north) from Sovia City. Gathering support, the Skylandic citizens under Pirater launched a battle in Sovian Kingdoms - pearling many of the Sovian leaders who hadn't already quit the server at this point. After a few hours of skirmishes in the Sovian streets - Pirater became leader, improved living conditions by tearing down communal housing, and also built castles and luxurious housing. The surviving Sovians agreed to form one nation - which became the Sovian Republic. Sovia eventually went underground during the great war of the server (Pirates vs Agora) - and they all ended up quitting or living in the Sovian Underground Bunker. Scarred by raiders, Sovia eventually had to join the neighboring nation of Arbosia in a union.
