Line 205:
[[Charlieseeese]], a former citizen on Yoahtl and an Infinity War veteran would end up picking up the vacant seat for judge left by incumbent [[LordCheiftain]], who decided not to run for re-election. This position was highly contested though, with FreestyleJr, xDarkDiamond, and others nearly taking the position. Driving political discourse was [[Oniii_Chan]]'s, The Grand Judge of Icenia, schtick of stealing crafting tables from homes. Charlie would run on an anti-crafting table theft platform which tapped into the sentiments of many new players who had fallen victim to the crime. Despite the controversy, Oniii_Chan would sweep the election for Grand Judge, winning over 45% of all 1st place votes in Icenia.
=== Ez2Crew Raids ===
In late March of 2021, Icenia was hit by it's first major attack since the [[War of The Coalition]] when former [[Mir]]<nowiki/>rian fighter Ez2Clutch suddenly went rouge and killed Binchymonkey in the streets of Icenia, stealing his prot. A swarm of Coalition fighters would enter Icenia that first night, including ChosenTwice, who would be given groups to the city skybunker and iceroads. The next day, Chosen would kill Naglafer on the streets of Icenia during a prot deal and join Ez2's raiding crew. Again, more Coalition members poured into Icenia to aid with the defense of the city and overnight traps were constructed, the cities infrastructure was stocked with pots, and repair mats were made open to all fighters.
Fighting in Icenia would be ongoing for nearly two days, with no losses on the Coalition side, but with a loss of one of Ez2's members near the Icenian-IT border at the hands of Slushhi, the former Prime Minister of Bloom and an Icenian citizen. After the loss of this pearl, fighting would shift to outside of West Isle, before moving to the half-disabled Best Western vault. Fighting would continue there for another day before all of the players on Ez2's side would be banned as a result of fighting with individuals such as Vespasian,Parker, and Addy-a sad young man with a crippling obsession for Icenia who had presumably forgotten to take his medication that week. It is worth noting that had he been pearled, this would have been the third pearl of his in the Cringe Pit Home For Troubled Youth, a very sad milestone for mental health on Civ servers indeed.
Chosen would turn himself into Varkonia in late May of 2021, and the status of the other non-VPN accouts remains a mystery.
=== Political Conflict (January 2021-Present) ===
With the fall of CivUniverse and the inactivity of CivRealms due to wars, Icenia recived a massive influx of players from both servers. Notable players included [[1drop]], prawny, [[Juniortide]], binchymonkey, IKEAFRIDGE, MrJeremyFarmer, and spacemanspleef. Spacemanspleef would go on to form the ill-fated "colony" of Nexton near 0,0, while IKEAFRIDGE would be released from their pearl, gained previously for vault EZ violations, and become a judge.
The influx in players would result in the first true political divide in Icenia since the West Isle conflict, with this coming to a head in the May Elections in which over 9 candidates would run for judge. Primary concerns of new players including the government favoring the "Old Guard" Icenians in court cases, the government not following the Icenian Constitution properly, and laws being flouted in favor of conveincence. Notably in April before the May elections, Binchymonkey had been pearled for the actions of his sister, those being building a house on top of Diziantree, and getting pearled for it. ChrisChrispie was sued for murder, lost the court case, and nearly refused to pay reparations to Binchy.
Further division was seen in the case of the existence of Nexton as a whole, with some players within the government becoming scornful of the group of newfriends who had settled there due to their inability to "learn the game", and Nexton claiming that the Icenian Central Government was not upholding their end of the deal and giving them enough resources to be successful. Ultimately, Nexton would officially disband and it's remaining citizens would move underground. Eventually, long term Icenian Minister of Defense and recently appointed Minister of Intellegence [[SoundTech]] would step down for reasons cited as "the Icenian government turning into something he did not like". His replacement, adheadhead, would stir controversy due to citizenship held in [[Hjaltland]], a nation which Icenia was becoming increasingly close to due to economic deals signed onto by Enforcer15 which would bring Hjaltland Industries back to Icenia after a nearly 2 year long hiatus after the Kennedylaw raids in 2019.
Further drama included [[Amelorate]]'s sentencing in a crafting table theft case, in which the court wavered in its opinion on the amount of diamond reps Amel would have to pay to LordCheiftain following a breach in his old factory room located outside the Cringe Pit exclusion zone. This was in large part due to ChrisChrispie's prodding of judge 1drop to reduce diamond reps from over 100 to around 15. This was seen as an egregious violation of the separation between the judges and the office of the President which had been established in July of 2019 via [[Vend3tta]]'s constitutional rewrite. Also included in the controversy was supposed mishandling of evidence on if the armor factories LordCheiftan claimed existed ever did in the first place.
