Past to Present Chapter 13: Retirement to Semi-Activity

Coming from https://ccnet.fandom.com/wiki/Tre_2020,_The_Traveller

After playing CCNet for several years, Tre_2020 once again found himself in a state of boredom in early 2025. Having helped bring The Canadian Dominion (CD) to such a high level as a Co-Leader, fighting in many sieges against his enemies, traveling all over the world, and more, he was ready to move on.. at least for a little while. He announced his retirement to CD, sold his silver farm to acquire over 150k, and went inactive for a little while, only returning to maintain the upkeep of his town every once in a while.

During the mid-to-late timeframe of the summer of 2025, Tre_2020 somewhat returned to CCNet, peacefully farming crops, finding non-silver ways to make money (granted, they're extremely inefficient comparatively speaking), and occasionally engaging in battle. It didn't take long before he fully resumed his participation in Imperial Alliance sieges across the globe. Of course, he remains retired from politics, only tuning in when he wants to know new information or to give advice.

That being said, this is what occurred from Early of 2025 to Late 2025 to my knowledge:

• greymesa was eventually temp-banned. The reason of this temp-ban (which I do not remember (sorry guys)) demotivated him from continuing to play CCNet. So, he passed down leadership to someone who had the most contributions to the nation at the time: snasycanuck. Under snasy's leadership, The Canadian Dominion and Greenland merged into what is now called the Imperial North (formerly: Canadian-Greenlandic Empire), becoming one of the largest nations on the server. Several other smaller nations continue to come and go over time
• Shortly after that: Floritania, 'the Texans' (as referred to in previous chapters of Past to Present), and the remaining members of Cultist (for some odd reason) merged together, forming The Telurian Federation. It is unclear if Fake4 is still the leader. The capital is under GareBearH's control (Gare was a 'Texan' leader) and he currently does not even hold the position of co-leader. Again, not my story to tell
• After Telurian and The Imperial North both created newer and stronger forts, they remain pretty much at a standstill, with neither side able to occupy each other. And, if they do, it doesn't ever last very long
• ImGnomeAlone, after taking a short break from CCNet as well, renamed himself to w4rky_ and is currently working on a new nation over in Australia called The Australis Syndicate. It didn't take long before The Oceanic Empire, long time inhabiters of Australia and members of COA, unfortunately sieged and occupied them
• Telurian and COA continue to develop new and scummier "strategies" to help them in sieges against The Imperial Alliance, obliterating the map every time there is one. Interestingly enough, the staff team is not motivated to reset those parts of the map. One example would be the fall of The Empire of Columbia, which the map around the ex-EoC fort remains covered in glass, fences, and deepslate tiles. Other strategies include dripstone traps, tunnels leading to ganks, a recent gun-insta-kill-glitch use, climbing forts, piloting the turrets on said fort to drill itself, and likely more to come. I will say though, their ingenuity is pretty good and their ability to acquire mass amounts of randoms to fight for them is impressive

The America Initiative

            There was an idea. To bring together a group of remarkable people to see if they could become something more. To see if it was possible for a true America. States have already began to form on their own. Miami aka Florida is one of the oldests on CCNet. There’s Miami, Alabama, Texas, Washington, Maine, Minnesota, Detroit and Michigan, Los Angeles and California, and Alaska has been replaced with ‘The West Coast Republic’. Now, Keystone, representing the Dakotas, has been born, replacing my town’s old name for this one. 10 towns and a nation- 39 more states are missing. Will you join the America Initiative?

Past to Present Chapter 12: Frauditania

On the first weekend of February 2025, just a few weeks after the complete occupation of Cultist Empire and its release through what appears to be a series of diplomatic agreements (one of which was likely the reason, if not one of the reasons, behind the creation of yet another ‘third side’), Canada and the remaining nations within the Imperial Alliance plotted together to take down Floritania and their subsidiary nations, Macuxa and USA. Earlier that week, in a surprising turn of events, the nation called Quintessense Syndicate, which we had thought to also be one of those subsidiaries, turned on Macuxa and Floritania and decided to join us in destroying the “Florisphere”, as many within the Alliance call them.

In typical Vinovia fashion, they were responsible for taking down taking down the very young USA (aka the new Texan nation) at USA’s fort, Trinity, easily outmatching them on the battlefield. Joining the US Army were their vassal in Alaska (not to be confused with the Alaskan PvPer nation from many months ago) and the coalition, coming in an attempt to save the day. Despite calling on such a force for help, Vinovia maintained the lead with ease. On the last few hours of the battle, the US Army discovered how effective artillery could be against these skilled pvpiers so, Rome joined the battle to help secure the victory.

Macuxa’s fort, Kaima, was the next target of the Alliance. Not much is to say about this battle. Victory was inevitable far before the banner was even placed. Who knows what sort of internal politics led to their downfall...

The legendary battle at Brigantia… I will not be the one to count how many attempts it took but, after many chapters of Past to Present, telling of our efforts against these enemies, from Tertia to Canada- Coalition to Alliance, we finally won. Without proper instruction during the battle, Floritania and the Coalition were unable to properly defend the main Floritania fort, Brigantia, as they struggled to hold the lead for even just a tiny bit. I must say without bias, that is a true testament to Fake4’s leadership but, without him that fateful weekend, they were easily defeated… all three of them.

I cannot tell you how long I have been waiting to use “Frauditania” in my posts. Some might remember my use of the term during a political conference many months back but, this weekend was truly worthy of the title. Time can only tell what will occur when the Florisphere inevitably fights back.



This has been Co-Leader Tre_2020 the Traveller of the Canadian Dominion! Have a good morning, good afternoon, and good night!

Past to Present Part 3 - Chapter 11: Floritania

Many months have passed since the War of the North had begun. Countless sieges and battles within the wilderness caused some to flee the Americas to start again elsewhere or even create new nations within the Americas. All this proved to be futile on the weekend of January 10th, 2025. But before I speak on that historical weekend, let's recap some of the other major political shifts.

To begin, Tre_2020 finally hosted the Tertian Olympics in the month of December and continues to host events (mainly for Canada) to this day. Tre_2020, upon discovering that it was a bit difficult to recruit under his old name, decided to rebrand the town from 'Tertia Olympia' to 'Kingslanding', named after the Capital of Westeros in the popular series, 'Game of Thrones' and 'House of the Dragon'. Let the name of Tertia, formerly led by Tre_2020, be remembered through history as the nation that, despite its small size, was able to drastically shift North American politics.

Some weeks later, the Texans and several other towns across North America once again split from Floritania and created the United States of America with a vassal state up in Alaska. A few Cultist Empire (CE) towns also split to create a neutral nation upon recognizing the potential threat of Floritania and their allies. That being said, Cultist Empire returned to their original name after Deathmaker9000 assumed leadership (Supercell got banned and the leaders before him retired). Tensions between Cultist Empire and Floritania grew after the short Winter Truce ultimately leading to a devastating double-siege... The War of the North grows ever still.

On January 10th, 2025, the once-thought-invincible nation called Cultist Empire was sieged by Floritania, formerly referred to as 'that foreign nuisance' in previous chapters of Past to Present. This historical and bold move marks Floritania as one of the strongest nations in this era of CCNet. Through a series of unwise decisions made by CE leadership, they were fully occupied by the enemy. Could this be the fall of Cultist Empire, like all empires before it, or will they finally gather all their strength to destroy the Floritanian threat once and for all? Only time will tell how this war will end.
