The Republic

About

The Republic was a major faction initially created by FactionsMarshall and Nnomtnert as a starter base somewhere around [REDACTED], but then after a little while the two decided to move and start their first main base at [REDACTED]. The first base was something resembling a quaint wooden village, and soon the players Minecrep and Wisp joined from spawn, and the faction was a group of four. The Republic's constitution was written soon after, and the first presidential election was held, with Nnomtnert winning. Initally, presidential elections were held once every week, and a person could run for at most two terms. But in July the term limit was extended from 1 week per term to one month.

The first base created by Marshall and Nnomtnert was short lived however, as drama sparked between Marshall, Wisp, and Minecrep, and then marshall threatened to expose base coords unless then president Nnomtnert succumbed to his blackmail. Nnomtnert refused after negotiating with Marshall, and marshall left, releasing base coords. Funnily enough, almost nobody remembers the exact coords anymore, but anyway Nnom, Crep, and Wisp were forced to leave and find a new base location, which they did at [REDACTED], which would become one of the biggest playerbases on Psychicraft. This second base was named 'the Capital' and was a coastal city.

Second Base (The Capital)

The Second base, often referred to by it's inhabitants as the capital, was a large city, iconic for it's buildings such as the Gate Statues (which still stand to this day), the Nnomtower, the Arena, and the Helliontower. The Base's roads were paved out of Iron blocks and white concrete, and it had the highest population of players over time from any single base in psychicraft. The List contains: Sinkcat9000, ThePinkHellion, Minecrep, Wisp, Nnomtnert, AlexTheNoob, Agitelen, Factionsmarshall (his re-admission into the base caused it's destruction), OdieTheViking, Rosefrappe, Danud, and more. Many of these players formed their own splinter bases off of the Capital. These include Cromeethia, Berycadia, and other smaller unlisted bases including Nnom's 1 million base. And Sinkcat and Minecrep's excursions out into the 60k's.

Luckily for the inhabitants of the base, it was situated only a mere [REDACTED] blocks away from an end portal, allowing the base easy access to end stone, elytras, and Ender pearls. The base had run ins with the renegade Coopdj, a friend of Jtcoop who played on the server from its near start. Coopdj was a fierce fighter and slayed Nnomtnert at spawn after an intense elytra chase, but failed to kill him directly and instead buried him under a lavacast. Nnom was able to stash away his gear under said lavacast in a shulker, but was burned to death. Coopdj soon rampaged across the [REDACTED] highway, killing minecrep and other players to get to the Capital's base seemingly just for entertainment. He eventually got into the overworld after being on the [REDACTED] nether highway, and was stopped from entering the republic base after he was trapped by Sinkcat and Minecrep in a lavatrap above a guardian temple which kept him stuck for nearly a month. This lavatrap can still be seen if you fly around the surrounding ocean by the capital, as it sticks out in the various islands like a sore thumb. Coopdj eventually escaped, and attacked the capital. He was killed multiple times and eventually drowned by Sinkcat using frostwalker boots, and was told that he could chill at the base if he wanted as long as he caused no trouble. This was an odd call to make from Nnom but funnily enough Coopdj never caused any trouble for the Republic Again.

The Republic eventually caught wind of Marshall basing with kasikak, Danud, and Alexthenoob, and how he was mean to his base members. Sinkcat insided the base using an account called 'Diamondwreaker' and got base location coords. Soon, Sinkcat, Minecrep, and Nnomtnert plotted to raid it and Nnomtnert went in to do reconnaisance, meeting Alex and Danud at their own base. Marshall was killed by Sinkcat when the raid started, and the entire base was nuked. Alex, Danud, and Kasikak officially joined the republic and Marshall left the server for about a month before rejoining later. Their base was around [REDACTED] according to minecrep. After a while, the republic's rapid growth began to slow down, and Sinkcat and Minecrep got bored. This lead to them destroying the MASSIVE creeper farm in the middle of the capital, and leaving the base to form the Combine, a group merging Sunbecoming and the Mesopotamians. Nnom was rather frustrated and he and Hellion were left to try to regain control of the faction, and eventually hellion made a bad call by letting Marshall back into the base. This resulted in Marshall leaking base coords and burning down the Storage room and Nnom's personal house. The Base was exposed and everyone had to move to find a new base location. Twice now, the republic had been undermined by Marshall.

Third Base

The third base was the republic's final base, located at [REDACTED], and in a mesa biome. This base could have ended up becoming rather large as it started getting relatively established before Sinkcat returned to the republic. It lasted for about a week and a half, and during it's time Swadboi and T9foggy joined. The Base featured iconic buildings like the Nnomtower V2, and the Cobble Monster Terrace House. Sadly, Sinkcat betrayed then president T9foggy and called in The Combine, killing Alex, Wisp, and others, and looting the base. Sink personally killed nnomtnert in his own arena, but Nnom stood no chance as when sink killed him he was only in iron armor. The base was pretty much abandoned and after that the republic basically died as a faction, and the Crusaders emerged as a Neo-Republic faction soon after. Their base lasted for a few months at [REDACTED] before abandoned warrior griefed it.

Some time later, the crusaders regrouped and formed their final base and the longest running establishment which has not undergone any griefing at a secret location. Consisting of DrLite, Wisp, ThePinkHellion, Nnomtnert, and some others, this small group of crusaders slowly gained traction and became a notable faction of power during the twilight hours of Psychicraft, even doing battle with the combine once again after allying with Coopdj and people from the faction of WBS to fight Viticen and Gony in a stronghold to rescue Jtcoop from a spawn trap causing the Ocean War (which was one of the largest battles on the server). Psychicraft is now in a dark age due to the player-drama that occured, and Jtcoop's banning of key donators and active players without explanation. The crusader's final base is mostly abandoned now and even I have forgotten the coordinates. It's sad that things always have to fade away this way...
