== History ==
'''<big>Pre-
Icenia traces its roots back to [[Civcraft 2.0]] as an outpost of Kaiserinreich. At the time of Icenia's founding as a colony, [[Kaiserinreich]] was involved in a conflict with [[SPQR (CivClassic)|SPQR]] and [[Volterra]] over valuable land needed for the production of [[Enchanting|EXP]]. After a successful invasion by joint SPQR-Volterran forces over the establishment of a city in SPQR land, the colony of Icenia was established on the Kaiserinreich-Volterra border in an effort to legitimize Kaiserin's claim. However, Icenia grew quickly and became culturally independent of Kaiserinreich. Eventually the majority of the players within Kaiserinreich lived in Icenia rather than the capitol, Kaiserin City. Due to the distance between Kaiserin City and Icenia and the lack of a strong ruler in Kaiserinreich, Icenians began to reject Kaiserin rule. As a result, on July 8th, 2015 Icenia declared independence from Kaiserinreich and joined the Grand Northern Alliance. After this, Icenia experienced a population boom which it could not handle, and eventually suffered from its overall lack of infrastructure leading to its annexation by Volterra after several obby and firebombing attacks committed by alt accounts from Icenia's own alliance, the GNA.
'''<big>Founding on
In March of 2019, [[ChrisChrispie]] returned to the CivCraft community after 2 years of inactivity and traveled to the (-,-) intent on joining [[Bloom]] and running for Parliament. However, these plans did not pan out and after consulting with [[Varkonia|Varkonian]] leader Mickale, a tract of land over what once was Antietam Isles and the [[Ring of Essence]] was granted to [[ChrisChrispie]] to re-establish Icenia. The re-establishment of Icenia occurred on March 11, 2019.

Relations began to sour after breaches of trust between the government of Icenia and Sovians. After the attack on [[Nyasaland]], the government of Icenia cracked down on TNT stashes carried into the nation after it was discovered that AngryPepsi had compacted incredible amounts on the explosive and had stored it within Icenian territory. The UNC was also given the authority to pearl anyone involved in the Nyasaland bombing not yet captured even if they were residing in Icenia. Later, [[ChrisChrispie]] was accused of stealing diamond blocks from [[Pirater]] which were being used to help build New Sovia. When presented with evidence, [[ChrisChrispie]] gave the blocks back. However, this would permanently damage relations between the two groups.
Relations collapsed in mid June of 2019, when Swiftfizz and many other New Sovians entered Icenian territory and entered restricted land, later spamming the coordinates of this area in the in-game global group chat,

'''UNC'''
Icenia was part of the GNA during Civcraft 2.0, and with the UNC being a spiritual successor during CivClassic, as well as neighbors [[Bloom]] and [[Varkonia]] maintaining member status, it was only natural for Icenia to join. The UNC gave early support to the establishment of Icenia in
However, early on relations with UNC nations began to fray. First, LordChieftain was pearled by then-[[UNC]] member Swiftfizz and brought to the Varkonia vault over 'terroristic threats' made on Icenian soil. This violated Icenia's anti-bounty hunting laws, and LordChieftain was released. Then due to the events of Sovia's attack upon Nyasaland, and Icenia's perceived harboring of individuals wanted by the UNC, UNC members began to doubt their ability to work constructively with Icenia. Around this time, Icenia decided to cancel its request to join the alliance.
