Notice that none of the following is metagaming; this was my original plan for Kiwike 2.0, and, since it 'no longer exists', cannot be considered metagaming.
Well, to be quite honest, my original idea was to start up the Cerantian Empire in Kiwike, and eventually spread it out through very peaceful and 'friendly' manners. After such a time where events quieted down, I would then have furthered the 'Crypt of Nomanic Carver' roleplay event, and have him return by taking Cerce's soul and pulling the same trick in Cerantia as he did in my lore-homeland of Sarkom - which is kill the king, and re-animate him to lead the country as Nomanic would want him to. With the followers that Cerce gained through his peaceful and friendly expansion, Nomanic would frame the lesser surrounding nations of wrongdoing, and start up a vast annexation of surrounding lands. Eventually, he'd come across someone who was allied with Helvanthar. At that point, World War Kiwike would commence, and one of two things would have happened: A) War continues until one of the nations is beaten into submission, and the winner establishes the global precedence of how the server would be ruled. B) An internal roleplay 'event' would take place, if and/or when someone would finally figure out that Cerce was no longer the real Cerce, and would then drive Nomanic back to where he came from, and return Cerce's soul to its former residence.
But... The Grand War, coupled by the failure and fallout at Plunge and some of my various IRL problems drove Cerantia into the ground. Not to mention my habit of over-complicating my politics and roleplaying.
Now? I honestly don't know - I'm back to the drawing board, trying to re-invent something that has already been perfected. But do know that I most likely will never strive to establish a large nation again... and it is confirmed that the 'new' Cerce will not be nearly as 'nice' as the 'former' Cerce.

I'm really interested in learning about those . . .

26000 diamonds?
This number keeps getting bigger everytime I see it...I never had more than about 4000, unless I was missing a few in there. Anyway, I wish I could have gotten a nation together that was better than bludwick, also that my guild didn't fall apart.
I can give you a tip on keeping your guild together this time, avoid jyan.
