'''PRAISE FRANCIS'''
 
[[https://youtu.be/wSv-T4YwN6U Francis Ad #4]]
 
The Empire of Francis is the largest group on simpvp, it is governed by it's Emperor, Pope, Priests, Generals and high ranking Disciples.
 
Not to be confused with the infidel Pope Francis of the Catholic church, [[Francis]] is a red sheep god that was found at [[Syracusai]] in early 2019. Ever since being found, the religion of Francisism has slowly become the most popular religion in Simpvp's history.

Previously known as: '''The Church of Francis''' ('COF', August 2019 - January 2021), '''The Holy States of Francis''' ('HSOF', January 2021 - June 2021), '''The Empire of Francis''' ('COF', June 2021 - Present)

==History==
Created 04/08/19

===Church of Francis===
 
====Birth of the Church and Conspiracy raid====
 
In early august 2019, Tenced and Lord1 plan to make a cathedral at their base [[New Hammerhall]], but they struggled to think what religion their new cathedral should be dedicated to. Earlier in the year, during his time in the [[Fellowship of the Kittens]] Lord1 created a religion for Francis, 'Francisism'. Tenced and Lord settled that their new cathedral should be the first church of Francis. After construction of the cathedral, Lord, Tenced and other players basing at New Hammerhall joined together in a religious clan dedicated to Francis, the Church of Francis.
 
[[File:COF1.png|400px]]
 
Earlier in the month [[Lord1]] found [[Andromeda]], [[Golden Sun]], [[The Vault]] and [[MisterStrawman]]'s portal hub. he gathered other followers to raid them although his connection to Andromeda was broken and the owners of The Vault ([[The Conspiracy]]) already blew it up causing Francis's followers to instead raid the Golden sun and Strawmans hub.
 
 
The raid was a success for the church although a battle broke out on the outskirts of the city due to [[clipchip]] and [[JavelinFury]] turning up to protect it. The church took heavy casualties due to their forces being spread out over multiple bases with only Wolfiee_, Fire__Kracken and Lord1 fighting, losing most of them. May they rest in peace.
 
Throughout September, the Church most notably built at New Hammerhall and 'The Holy Land' (it wasn't an actual holy land). A player called Out_Here_Sneezing would invite the Church members to join what would become the Bloc for Clans, the Francillians accepted and became a leading force in the clan union.
 
The Holy Scroll of Francis (first testament) was finished on the 12th of October 2019.
 
====The Holy War====
 
On October 17th, [[ostrich1414]] declared a holy crusade against the Church of Francis on behalf of his religious clan - [[The Order of Wilbur]]. The war lasted 1 month and 1 day and became simpvp's most bloody war yet with 9 battles taking place. For the first couple weeks, the Francillians were handling the war well with even battles won, however as Lord1 started to run out of supplies so did Francillian victories.
 
[[File:BattleOfMonarchia1.png|500px]]
 
After crucial losses at the battle of [[Monarchia]] and battle of Syrcasuai, Lord1 surrended on the Church's behalf and the Holy War was won by the Wilburians. However the Wilburians and Francillians agreed whilst discussing the surrender terms that the Church would be allowed to continue.
 
[[File:The Order of Wilbur Victory 4.png|500px]]
 
====First Imperial Era of Francis====
 
Throughout the rest of 2019 and early 2020, the Church regained its power it lost during the holy war and with help from other BC member clans, warred against [[MCMAFIA]] and [[The Dominion]] during the [[Intervention War]] with varied success.
 
[[File:Interventionwar2.png|500px]]
 
A major political disaster took place in January 2020 called [[The Sigil Conflict]] and almost started a second Holy War, but this was avoided through diplomacy.
 
On the 6th of February, [[CrackyJoe]] became the first ever Pope of the Church after being baptised at 'The Holy Land'. This was seen by many as the start of the Red Empire.
 
[[File:Popejoe.png|300px]]
 
22/04/2020 The Church official recognized the 'Francymbol' as it's main symbol.
 
from February to May 2020, the Church claimed/created 6+ bases/outposts and the full member list including recruits was up to 20.
 
====Republic-Francis Proxy War====
 
In the early months of 2020, many players and clans watched the Church turn imperialist and many didn't agree with some of the actions they were taking, Lord1 was especially critisized as he was responsible for a lot of decisions. one of the worst events that occurred during this time was [[The Stonetown Incident]] where [[Pippinger]] gave Lord ownership of the Wilburian Holy Land, Stonetown. This provoked a aggressive response from the Ostrich and the order of Wilbur.
 
[[File:Stonetown Annex 2.png|500px]]
 
After the 2nd Simpvp Summit and it's subsequent massacre that occurred, [[The Republic]] was announced. The Republics goals were to oppose Lord1 and the Church through any means possible, including raiding, griefing and trade wars. During June, the Republic made it's attack against the Francis capital city [[Two Words]] and then the recruit base Olgremont. Infuriated, Lord fired back by obliterating the Wilburian Holy Land, Stonetown.
 
Lord1 got backlash from his fellow priest and co-founder of the church, Tenced who later stepped down as priest as well as iPyxis although for other reasons. Not just the Republic was mad at Lord1 for Stonetown, but pretty much the entire simpvp community.
 
Francis hate was through the roof at this point, so Pope CrackyJoe in his wisdom devised a plan to pacify the community and calm the hate, so he excommunicated Lord1 and planned to reform the church. However with Lord1 voted back into the clan days later, many of the reforms didn't pan out.
 
====Mid 2020 Conflicts And Reaching 1 Year Old====
 
Mid 2020 saw the Church's diversion of attention from fighting others to working on infrastructure, this would include working on Francis_bot, work on the Church Discord and small events and competitions. The self proclaimed 'Republic' would constantly make efforts to weaken and cripple the church (A image will be shown below to visualise these efforts).
 
[[File:Mid2020visualised.png|200px]]
 
Some of the changes to the church included free gunpowder for all Church members supplied by MBI, some new outposts, colonies and a new base. A advert competition took place with a prize pool of 40 db, [[Seventwoworlds]] won with this image and unfinished video, AGTcraft came second place with the poster below and [[Wawuwiva]] came third with the poster below that.

In early august, the Church hit 1 year old. Around this time, the Church had 23 active disciples including priests, recruits and the Pope. 4 Days after the anniversary, the Church prepares for the first ever Priest election and after a couple of days of hard debates, speeches and discussions, [[TonTheKidRS]] Wins the votes! Here are their speeches accompanied by any posters used by the candidates:

September saw the most church military activity since the [[Intervention War]], as the church executed Operation Red Terror. This operation was to strike multiple bases within a short period built by enemies of the Empire, most being culprits of the Two Words grief. The bases attacked include PANOSKYLO's Base, Cutmans Base, QuantumEntropy's Base, Bbbbbbixieland, Elon Dusk and MisterStrawmans City & Portal Hub.
 
The montage of the griefs can be found [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3LalD10BP8 here]]
 
[[File:Bos.png|500px]]
 
During the grief of Elon Dusk, Lord1 killed Electrichugg. This caused him to round up his Wilburian allies and challenge the Francillians to a battle. The battle would be known as the [[Battle of Swampland]] and lasted about an hour until the Francillians claimed victory.
 
====[[The Imperial War]]====
 
After Operation Red Terror and the rapid rise of the Francillian Empire in late 2020, many players on Simpvp with spite against Lord1 started to get together and plot against the Church. At the 1 year Holy War anniversary, Xexc would be camped at spawn by Sellout9 and TheOnlySlash. Although Sellout states he was "only joking", xexc saw this as aggression. In the next week xexc would kill Sellout9 2 times in /world as revenge, and later AntHand for suspecting him of helping. This would be the final straw for them and their plot for war continue, now with a reason to declare war. The Church would find out their plan for war through spies, and immediately started preparing for war, not aware of the cost it would bring.
 
[[File:COF Tol Honeth.png|500px]]
 
(Tol Honeth Grief)
 
When war was declared by the now People's Coalition, the Church was slow to respond as to make sure their war plan would play out the way they intended. A huge spy recruitment was initiated and multiple spies were inserted into the PC, so until they noticed, the Church was completely aware of the PC's every move.
 
The war would consist of petty griefs and occasional skirmish's until COF raided GFC & Axetown, both fairly active PC owned bases. In response the PC griefed Swaglabs, a abandoned base made by Lord in 2019.
 
[[File:Three Words Ambush 2.png|500px]]
 
(Battle of Three Words)
 
It was silent for the next few weeks as the PC had been using a tamed animal exploit to find Lord1's and Tenced's main base, [[Three Words]]. The Church was desperate to arrange peace so they didn't have to attack [[Quabbin]] which housed many neutral targets. After rejecting the peace offering, the PC raided Three Words and then immediately agreed to arranging peace. Not before they raided another COF base, but after that they agreed to peace. Not before they killed the Pope in cold blood as peace arrangements were being discussed, but after that they agreed to peace. On the 28th of January the peace meeting was held at Gibraltar castle and the war came to a end.
 
===Holy States of Francis===
 
During the Imperial War, COF members wanted to transform the clan and started planning a reform. After the war ended they could finally commit to the changes and on the 30th of January, Project "Divine Pillars" went into effect, changing the Church's political system completely and changing the name of COF.
 
[[File:HSOF1.png|500px]]
 
The Holy States of Francis
 
After this change, the Holy States saw more public projects than ever before. A few internal incidents happened with two troopers that caused their excommunication from the HS, other than that the post-war recruitment hit sky high.
 
====Freindship Work Camps====
 
Post-war Simpvp saw a lot of HS warriors burnt out and looking to relax, they did this by starting fun and prosperous work camps for new players! The first work camp to be started was the FFWC 'Francillian Freindship Work Camp' and focused a huge amount of noobs to mining and building on their camp. Another fun fun fun camp was the Moron Mine, which was a safe and wholesome diamond mine on the outer reaches of spawn. All workers were well behaved until they were forced to kill each other. The workers of this camp went on to escape for 20 minutes, but were tricked to kill themselves and sent back to the mine :-)
 
====Golden Age of Francillia====
 
''March 2021''
 
Recruit & Trooper bases are erected to house many displaced and homeless newer members of the HS, such as Mecca, the alien infested Desert village, and Mooford Compound, a recruit inhabited society.
 
Constant loyalty and faith from Generals Xexc and James8B had earnt themselves the promotion to Priest as a result of Tenced's announced hiatus and other Francillian elites going inactive. By this time Lord1 was reinstated as Supreme General.
 
On the 29th, Yukarion decided to include Lord1 & Tenced's city Three words in the BRP (Base Restoration Policy) meaning anyone who got coords through anthand would be banned for going to the city.
 
[[File:2021-03-30 19.20.10.png|300px]]
 
Soon after, the HSOF builders & allies got to work on restoring the base and re-instating it as HSOF capital.
 
[[File:2021-03-30 22.25.39.png|300px]]
 
''April 2021''
 
Early April saw more work on the HSOF capital, but also the planning of more clan events.
 
The Legion Tournament was planned and prepared by General David and consisted of battles between the 3 Legions of the Grand Army of Francis. In the end, the Norse Legion, commanded by Generals Corleone & Xexc, took the W.
 
''May 2021''
 
Another HSOF event hosted at 3 Words was the 1st Francillian base competition where the biggest and best bases across the HS competed for sexiest base. [[Bodacious Sneeze]] took first place closely followed by [[Ragnarok]]. Before any voting took place, [[_Goujon_]] made a unexpected appearance, After refusing to leave, HS warriors pounced and attacked him. After being chased around 3 Words for 10 mins, Goujon agreed to leave and Lord1 showed him the way out.
 
====Confederacy-Francis War====
 
Later in may on the 3rd, HSOF enters its fifth war, against the [[Confederacy of Man]]. This war was started as a bit of a joke at first, but it was slowly taken more seriously as the COM started fighting back.
 
[[File:COMraid.png|500px]]
 
On the 8th of June, HSOF would finally enter an alliance with [[The Order of Wilbur]]. During this time talks were held about a possible super allaince with the Order of Wilbur & GS Trading.
 
[[File:OOW-COF Summit 2.png|500px]]
 
The Confederacy Francis war would go quiet for the next few weeks as the confederates regeared and rebuilt and the Francillian spies infiltrated them.
 
===Empire of Francis===
 
====Second Imperial Era of Francis====
 
After over a year of service from Pope Joe, he felt he wasn't active enough for the role and subsequently stood down, with Lord1 being voted in as the next pope. With the new powers as formal leader of HSOF, Lord held a vote to reform his beloved Empire.
 
 
[[File:Votewin.png|200px]]
 
The vote was successful, the Empire of Francis is reformed in the stead of the Holy States.
 
[[File:EOF2.png|500px]]
 
On 11/07/2021, GS x Francis forces blow up the traitor 159's base 'Copetown'. Minor conflicts continue against him & other pirates.
 
[[File:EOF1.png|500px]]
 
For a brief period, the Francillians close off recruitment and work on stability in the clan. HSOF Propaganda Ministry is changed to I.P.D (Imperial Propaganda Department) which focused on adverts and movie production.
 
[[File:EOF3.png|500px]]
 
The super alliance [[G.S.F.W.]] is formalized and it's initial use was to help combat YMP's griefing campaign against GS.
 
====End of the Confederacy-Francis War====
 
The Confederacy-Francis War was still active at this point, but after a successful spy operation, Francillians gained access to some of COM's bases. On the 27th August, the Empire of Francis strikes the bases as well as one of 159's bases. Later COM would disband due to inactivity among ranks and the Francillians would claim victory over the war. The Francillians also absorb many of COM's members who would go on to become devout disciples.
 
[[File:Comdown.png|300px]]
 
But that didn't leave the empire without enemies, YMP had been notably active around this time and actively base hunted and griefed many bases, but by November peace was achieved and a new prosperous era for Francillians would begin.
 
==Theology==
===Francis===
Francis was a being discovered grazing on early [[Syracusai]] grassland and survived for weeks as Syracusai developed until [[Lord1]] gave him a home.
 
[[File:Francis1.png|400px]]
 
Francis went on to be a FOK[https://simplicitypvp.net/w/Fellowship_of_the_Kittens] Elder God. When a invasion of Syracusai was imminent, Lord1 and Tenced evacuated Francis to a bunker in a secret location and has remained there for months.
 
[[File:Francis strong.png|300px]]
 
(depiction of Francis by [[LidGuy]])
 
Francis is thought by his followers to be a multi-dimensional, almighty being who made all things including the land of Simpivia (SimPvP) but takes the form of the red sheep.
 
 
==Grand Francillian Army==
Corleone is the current Supreme General and operates all of the Grand Francillian Army, under authority of the Emperor.
The hierarchy of the military: Emperor / Pope -> Supreme General -> General -> Commander -> Knight -> Conscript.
 
===Legions===
The Imperial Grand Army of Francis is mostly made up of 4 legions. When together, they are the largest force simpvp has ever witnessed.
----
====Lord Legion====
General: Emperor Lord1
 
Unlike the other legions, the Lord Legion (LL) consists of new generation Francillians and non norse/spanish knights. It is also the largest legion but most members are lazy and never turn up to fights.
 
[[File:LL.png|100px]]
 
----
====Spanish Legion====
General: General Power
 
The Spanish legion (SL) consists of Spanish speaking Spaniards from Spain. Highly affiliated with the [[Spanish Inquisition]].
 
[[File:Banner Inquisicion.PNG|100px]]
 
----
 
====Norse Legion====
Generals: Father Corleone, General Montana
 
The Norse legion (NL) consists of Scandinavian Francillians
 
[[File:NL.png|100px]]
 
----
====CanaDutch Legion====
General: General IDenyMyCrits
 
The CanaDutch Legion is the product of two other legions merging together. Originally the Germanic Legion & NA Legion, their Generals agreed to merge to increase in size.
 
[[File:Tuliplegion.jpg|100px]]
 
----
 
===Knights===
Established on the 8th of August 2019 before the invasion on The Conspiracy, the Francillian Knights are categorized as any Francis praiser who fights enemies on foot. The Francillian army was the main fighting power during [[The Holy Wilbur-Francis War]], The [[Intervention War]], [[The Imperial War]] and [[Confederacy-Francis War]]. In all of these wars, Francillian knights kill more and die less and are regarded as some of the best fighters on simpvp, especially during larger battles.
 
====Francillian Air Force (FAF)====
 
Officially established on the 28th of October 2019, FAF pilots are categorised as any Francis praiser who fights enemies with elytra in the sky, also before it was removed FAF was responsible for operating TNT bombers. The FAF was a crucial aspect of the Francillian Military during the Francillians many wars, especially the Holy War and Imperial War. When in battle as the FAF would provide important air support to the Knights and gather the positions of the enemy forces and keep them busy when the knights needed to resupply.
 
[[File:Three Words Ambush 2.png|500px]]
 
During the Imperial War, lots of knights had to constantly switch between sword pvp and elytra pvp, so FAF tac tics from the Holy War were used.
 
===Task Force Fury (TFF)===
 
TFF was an elite selection of Francillian personnel for the most challenging operations and tasks, but over the years it developed into Francis' spy program. Formed on the 20th of October 2019 during the Holy War, TFF's first mission was the annexation of [[Tol Honeth]]. During the Imperial War, at it's peak, TFF had 5 active spies inside the Peoples Coalition, constantly feeding information back to high ranking COF. This was essential in the war effort and the Church would've lost without it.
 
TFF once again proved it's worth during [[Confederacy-Francis War]] as TFF spies in COM supplied the Empire with coords to 3 bases. Soon after the three bases were blown up, COM would disband and Francis claimed victory over the war.
 
==Robot_Francis==
The Church has its own chat bot known as 'Francis_bot'. It's linked with a discord bot that can displays Simpvp chat, and allows players to log the bot in remotely. The bot uses 'Prayers' as its currency and players can use these prayers to do things such as set join messages and send anonymous messages to other players as well as a few other commands. You can see all the commands by doing #help in in game chat when the bot is also online.
 
Francis_bot was developed and coded by 086.
 
After a few months of working perfectly, Francis_bot's account was reclaimed. So Robot_Francis account was bought to take its place.
 
==The Holy Texts==
 
'''FoK Elder Gods''': The first ever text where Francis is acknowledged and revered.
 
'''The Holy Scroll (First Testament)''': a text with the Lords commandments, gospel and some background information about the almighty Francis and his son Olgrem put together by the priests.
 
'''The Holy Scroll (Second Testament)''': a continuation of the first.
 
'''Genasis I''': a text holding history and lore on Francis and his creation of Simpivia.
 
'''Illuminations I''': a text holding Pope Crackus' experience and lessons with the Lord.
 
===The Holy Arts===
 
Below are some of the Church's map arts.
