Early Life

Francis was discovered on the 17th of March by early settlers of the city of Syracusai, he was taken in by the Fellowship of the Kittens and seen and referenced as a god in the FoK Elder Gods book. Francis lived in the middle of Syracusai for a few months with his son Olgrem. KoriJenkins claims he killed Francis when griefing Syracusai, the Church denies this as they claim Francis was moved a underground a few weeks before the grief.

Rebirth in Francis Popularity

Until the 4th of August, Francis was largely forgotten. It wasn't until the founding of New Hammerhall, the Francis Cathedral, Francisism and the creation of the Church of Francis that Francis would see a rise in popularity.

Francisism and the Church of Francis

The term 'Francisism' refers to the religion created to praise Francis and his gifts and is seen to be the largest religion in modern day SimPvP, rivalling the ancient religions of The Order of Wilbur and Yukarionism.

The Church of Francis is an organisation created to praise and protect Francis and his followers. Founded on the 4th of August 2019 by Priests Lord1 and Tenced at the Francis Cathedral in New Hammerhall, this military order takes aggressive actions against its supposed enemies in the name of Francis, for example: The 'Church of Francis Invasions' in which a small army of Francillian brethren attacked and raided multiple of The Conspiracy's bases.

Rivalry with Wilbur and the Holy War

Francis's and Francisism's rise in popularity was seen as aggressive by Wilburians, which caused them to initiate war with Francis and the Church. The Holy Wilbur-Francis War lasted exactly one month and one day until the Francillians lost the Battle of Syracusai and surrendered to the Wilburians. Even after the war ended, there was still rivalry, although the aggression between the two religions died down.

Post-War Imperialism and Francis_bot

After the war, the Church of Francis slowly transformed itself into more of an empire than a church organisation. They did this by repossessing (annexing) others bases to use for their growing numbers. In early 2020, the a unofficial name took off for the church, the 'Red Empire'.

After this new age of Church imperialism took off, Father 086 would release his creation 'Francis_bot', a Francis chat bot.

Pre-Imperial War

Throughout 2020, after being declared war upon and losing to the Wilburians and a general aggression from the entire SimPvP community, the Francillians took a new approach; offense is the best defence. This could be characterized by Operation Red Terror, where a handful of rebel associated bases were griefed one by one in the span of a week. The rivalry between the Francillians and Wilburians would escalate with The Sigil Conflict and The Stonetown Incident. All this tension would soon boil over with the most destructive war yet.

Imperial War

SimPvP's community would once again band together to wage war against the Red Menace. 6 clans would unite under the People's Coalition and declared war against COF on the 10th of December 2020. Both sides fought hard and lost much, however exhausted each other before any decisive victory could be won. Throughout the war, Francisphobia was at a all time high, possibly even more than the Holy War.

2021

2021 could be Francisisms most prosperous year. COF saw a plethora of group events (COF base competition, COF Legion Tournemant), military victories (Victory in the Confederacy Francis War) and diplomatic advancements (Founding of GSFW. Towards the end of the year however, COF's long and tedious rivalry with YMP was starting to take a tole. Many COF bases had paid the ultimate price at the hands of X-Raying YMP barbarians, and the fear of being ambushed halted any group events.

2022

After the resounding victory against YMP (after they got jailed), COF celebrated. For the first time in years, COF and Francisism wasn't opposed by any clans. By this point, after years of constant conflicts and wars, COF had developed into less of a church and more of a militaristic crusading brotherhood, and with no heathens to smite lots of members lacked motivation to play. Nonetheless, Francisism has found a place for itself in the 2022 SimPvP regular playerbase.
