Kaprediem: Difference between revisions

Line 19:

He was reintroduced to Minecraft by Banyough, who had been playing the game's pocket edition during the first few months of lockdown. They played on a now-lost LAN server and focused on building railways. Eventually, Kap decided one night to find a "geopolitical Minecraft server". Through this, he discovered CivClassic, where he established Lambat with Banyough.

Lambat was originally intended to be a small Filipino-inspired city-state. It had a republican government that eventually evolved into a democracy, before it slid into an oligarchy post-CivClassic.

The first iteration, the Free State of Lambat, lasted for a month until it's brief dissolution by Kaprediem. He attributed this decision to shock towards the chaotic management of a nascent political alliance, from which Lambat withdrew. By this time, however, Lambat had started gaining attention due to its regular posts in the r/CivClassic subreddit, particularly the weekly Lambat Post. Kaprediem returned to CivClassic and reestablished Lambat.

The nation was brought into the spotlight after the infamous Sack of Lambat. All of Lambat's wealth was pilfered by a two-person group named The Thieves Guild. Kaprediem's call to action drew in the support of various countries, most notably Mount September and Lusitania. After the incident, Metriximor made his state visit to Lambat, sealing the Luso-Lambatan friendshup treaty, which remains in effect to this day.

In mid 2021, Lambat ratified it's first constitution and became an electoral democracy. However, Kaprediem's attention was split between his real-life job and CivClassic. By August, after being elected to his second term, Kaprediem resigned as president and went into a soft-retirement, dividing his time between managing a small farm in the outskirts of Lambat City and residing in Mount September.

Unbeknownst to the community, Kap had become increasingly burned out by his actual occupation, which he still describes as his second worst decision he made in his entire adult life. This was the main factor in his decision to step down from Lambat. However, by October, he announced his return to politics; Kap ran as the presidential candidate for the November election against CommradePotaote. He managed to win a comfortable majority, but, his decision to withdraw from the Conference of Eastern States (CES) proved controversial and soured relations between the pacifist and pro-defense camps.

Further deterioration of the country's politics alongside Lambat's sustained economic growth was abruptly cut short by the shutdown of CivClassic in December 2021. Several members of Lambat joined other factions, while Kaprediem sought to continue in the then-upcoming CivMC server.
