PRAISE FRANCIS

[Francis Ad #5]

[Francis Discord]

The Church of Francis is a religious militant cult founded in 2019 revolving around their god Francis, a red sheep found at the base Syracusai. COF is currently the largest group on SimPvP and is governed by the Pope, Priests and high ranking Disciples.

Church of Francis

Pre-Church Francisism

In the early months of 2019, the Fellowship of the Kittens hosted a few notable players that would go on to found the Church and define the Second Burning Age. At their capital city, Syracusai, FOK member Lord1 would find and house Francis the red sheep. Francis would be displayed in downtown Syracusai for a couple months, around this time Lord wrote a book named 'Elder Gods of FOK', which listed a few characters and ingame mobs which the FOK members claimed as their gods. These gods include Pepe the frog (An idea by MrMeeps and Bacon_15, would go on to be the mascot of the clan Meme.), Olgrem (Son of Francis and God of War) and of course Francis himself.

However the impending doom of a grief of Syracusai was inevitable, FOK member Tenced and Lord1 would lead Francis out of the main city and hide him in a cave where he would stay for over a year. When the grief of all FOK bases came at the hands of The Fellowship, all fingers pointed at Lord1 which split the former FOK members apart. Lord would go his own way and take on a multitude of failed and outright cringe attempts to gain some notoriety and power, whilst the rest of the former FOK members went on to build the city of Passacaglia.

However, Lord and Tenced's bond and love for each other couldn't be stopped any longer. The two would start talking again about the possibility of returning to and expanding the former FOK industrial city of Hammerhall but they eventually came to the conclusion that starting a new base would be safer, thus the creation of New Hammerhall was set into motion.

Birth of the Church

Whilst the construction of New Hammerhall was underway, Tenced & Lord went on to invite tons of players including iPyxis, Wolfiee__, CranberryWarrior and Unix System. Lord1 finally finished his cathedral and it was agreed it would be dedicated specifically to the religion of Francisism. Furthermore, the fervour of Minecraft religious clans was on the rise at the time and it was decided that the members of New Hammerhall wouldn't pass this opportunity, thus the Church of Francis (clan) was established on the 8th of August 2019.

The clan's first breakout into SimPvP's public eye was a organized raid and 'invasion' of a chain of The Conspiracy's bases. Days earlier, Lord1 had discovered the chain of portals inside The Capital's potion brewer which connected to Andromeda and ultimately connected to MisterStrawmans own portal hub, of which had portals to Golden Sun and The Vault (The Conspiracy's main storage base).

However, this invasion didn't go quite as planned. During the original scouting mission, JavelinFury came online at The Vault as Lord1 was scouting it, Lord1 drank a invis potion and tried to escape without raising Jav's suspicion but this was futile as Jav tried to go /world within 50 blocks of Lord1, thus Jav figured someone was invis at the base. The next day the Conspiracy evacuated The Vault, then completely blew it up.

(JavelinFury running past a invis Lord1 inside the main hall of The Vault)

As the first ever deployment of the COF army set on the city of Golden Sun, clipchip and JavelinFury ambushed the unprepared and disorganised militia and a battle would break out, causing two COF troops to die and the rest to flee. Ultimately though, the goal was achieved and the COF force returned home with the spoils of their raids. A month later in September, Lord and Tenced were approached by Out_Here_Sneezin (later Burger_Malone) about a new clan union that was to be called the Bloc for Smaller Clans (BSC), to which the Priests of COF agreed to join, but not all people were pleased to see such a powerful clan of new players arise...

The Holy War

On October 17th, ostrich1414, unofficial leader of The Order of Wilbur declared a Holy Crusade against the Church of Francis. Ostrich saw the Church as a copycat clan which threatened Wilburian Dominance in the religious realm of SimPvP, thinking that defeating them in war would diminish the clan into obscurity and gain notoriety for his own.

The Army of Francis saw some victories in the first half of the war, holding back ostrich from annexing 'The Capital' and crushing the Wilburian army at the Battle of Andromeda. However, the Wilburian Army pulled in tons of allies and had multiple cities producing and supplying their army, whilst the Francillians had a single industrial district at their capital, Francistan, supplying their army. Ultimately the better army proved itself at the Battle of Snowfrog & Battle of Monarchia where the Wilburians decisively pushed back the Francillians.

The final straw in the Francillians defeat was at the Battle of the Francillian Holy Land, Syracusai. The start of the battle saw the Francillians crush the Wilburian defenders, killing 3 of their troops at no expense of their own. Yet, Wilbur reinforcements came, and kept coming. This attrition tactic would be the Francillians downfall. Like Wilbur himself had planned this out from the start, Lord1's internet cut out in the middle of combat, allowing AntHand to slay him with the rest of the Francillians retreating. The Francillians had also run out of war supplies and Lord1 issued a conditional surrender.

The Wilburians and Francillians met at the neutral city of Verillium where Lord1 and Ostrich drafted up the terms and formalized the end of the war. The Holy War was notable for being the first formalized war, hosting the largest battles ever seen on SimPvP.

The Red Empire

Intervention War

COF was keen not to collapse after the defeat in The Holy War, instead adopting a more aggressive attitude against other clans and players as a defence mechanism, whilst also networking with the other Bloc for Smaller Clans members in a effort to gain some allies in case of another large war. COF's oldest enemy at the time, The Conspiracy, had plans of a even larger war than the Holy War. After hearing this, COF delegates in the BSC called for a pre-emptive strike against the clan. A 10 person task force of the now Bloc for Clans (BC) annexed and raided MCCAPITAL, starting the Intervention War, a dark and unfun period of the servers history characterized by unyielding toxicity, petty skirmishes and base griefs. COF's participation in this was big, but ultimately fruitless, wasting tons of resources and time and set the stage for even more conflicts.

In early 2020, Francis-Wilbur tensions exploded with The Sigil Conflict. Starting with the defacing and petty grief of a Francis Chapel in the city of Sigil, leading to a investigation by a COF task force which started off harmless with more of a larpy sentiment to it which became far more real when Willowienal came to Wawuwiva's aid after being punched a few times by Lord1, causing a small battle to take place. It's also important to mention GummyBearz was killed by Lord1 when COF arrived, however Lord returned her gear and apologized.

From the perspective of the other offline Sigil members, Lord1 was 'killing everyone and taking over Sigil', a notion that stuck for months after. After hearing these false rumours, Lord1 killed everyone and took over Sigil. Shorty after, Ostrich came to defend Sigil, griefing the Francis chapel and battled the occupying Francillians. A diplomatic agreement was then made and the tensions once again cooled off (Lord1 was then put on trial in VC on the BC discord, kicked out of the BC and went of a griefing rampage against the BC, but was allowed back in after???wtf relly??).

On the 6th of February, CrackyJoe became the first ever Pope of the Church after being baptised at 'The Holy Land'. Soon after, 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 Conflict

Throughout the first half of 2020, Former Wilburian Holy War Vets as well as newly joined victims of COF grew to despise Lord1's leadership of COF, seeing him as a impulsive tyrant who was only getting more and more powerful (which was true tbf). As a means to counter COF's growth and MBI's success, Zepheron planned a the new clan The Republic. The Republic was announced directly after the massacre of the Second SimPvP Summit and flocks of COF's enemies and independent players alike joined their ranks, even a Republic-Sponsored trade guild was formed, Exultia, to compete with Lord1's Melon Boiz Inc.™

The Stonetown Incident was a notable event in this period, which saw ownership of the Wilburian Holy Land, Stonetown, given to Lord1 by Pippenger in an attempt to undermine ostrich's ambitions of annexing it for the Order of Wilbur due to internal disputes. This heavily contributed to the alienation of COF and OOW for the rest of the year.

The next couple of months could be seen as COF's darkest period and the closest it's come to extinction since the Holy War. The Republic blew up the Francillian city of Olgremont as well as the COF Capital city, Two Words. In retaliation, Lord1 & Wawuwiva went to the Wilburian Holy Land, Stonetown, and relentlessly griefed it. This action caused Tenced, the Co-Founder of COF, to leave the clan. Priest iPyxis would also leave around this time too. The entire server was outraged at Lords actions, so Pope CrackyJoe and Supreme General Lord1 devised a publicity stunt to try quell the anti COF hate. Lord was 'excommunicated' from COF for his actions and was conveniently voted back in days later.

The remaining COF priests and disciples came to the conclusion that encouraging the conflict with the Republic would only benefit them, thus COF started working on more internal projects including new outposts, bases, free supplies and discounts for members, a public propaganda contest with a winning pool of 40 DB and soon the first election for a Priest.

In early august 2020, the Church hit 1 year old. Around this time, the Church had 23 members including Disciples, Priests, Recruits and the Pope. TonTheKidRS would go on to win the Priest election, and like any good politician, never did any of the things he promised in his election speeches. A month after in 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 [here]

During the grief of Elon Dusk, Lord1 saw in chat that ElectricChugg was at a build near spawn, he quickly flew there and caught Chugg putting his gear into a shulker, to which Lord stole it all and killed him. This caused him to round up his Wilburian allies and challenge the Francillians to a battle. The battle was arranged in a swamp biome near spawn, with ostrich, MoWobbler and ElectricChugg coming to represent the Order of Wilbur. A Francillian force of Lord1, James8B and a newly recruited young man called Xexc (I wonder if he will go on to be a great Francillian...?) turned up at the battlefield. After a solid hour of trench warfare and water pvp, the Francillians decisively pushed the Wilburian force back with ElectricChugg dying (twice), ostrich retreating and MoWobbler chased until he retreated also. The first Francis-Wilbur battle in a year had been won by COF, and it gave them the confidence and pride they hadn't felt since before The Holy War.

The Imperial War

Operation Red Terror and the rapid rise of COF's Empire in late 2020 frightened many players on Simpvp, especially those already spiteful against Lord1. So plans were set in place and the disgruntled players 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, now with a Casus Belli, the soon to be People's Coalition prepared for all out war with COF. The Church would find out their plan for war through spies, and immediately started preparing for war.

When war was declared by the People's Coalition, the Church was slow to respond as to make sure their war plan would play out the way they intended. Spy recruitment was initiated and multiple were inserted into the PC, so until they noticed, the Church was completely aware of the PC's every move. The first half of the war was characterized by the griefs of abandoned bases and small battles near spawn and in /world. This was until the Grand Army of Francis raided Gold Forge Citadel, one of the founding states of the People's Coalition.

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 and friends of COF. After rejecting the peace offering, the PC raided Three Words and then immediately agreed to arranging peace. This is when the PC split between members who wanted to continue the war until COF was destroyed and those who wanted peace. Those who wanted COF's destruction raided Pepe's Holy Land, but after both factions of the PC agreed to peace. However even up until the very end there was spiteful and secretive attacks, the subfaction of the PC who wanted COF's destruction killed Pope Crackjoe and planned to carry out more attacks post war as peace was being discussed and Lord1 with the strategic help of James8B secretly raided Quabbin. However, on the 28th of January the peace meeting was held at Gibraltar castle and the war came to a end.

The Holy States

During the Imperial War, some COF members (specifically Lord1) wanted to transform the clan and started planning a reform (big mistake tbh). After the war ended they commit to the changes and on the 30th of January, Project "Divine Pillars" went into effect, changing the Church's political system and changing the name of COF (though these changes did very little in retrospect).

After this change, the Francillians saw more public projects than ever before. A few internal incidents happened with two troopers that caused their excommunication from the group (who later went on to join YMP), other than that the post-war recruitment hit sky high and the group could actually afford to give the new members supplies and helped them start bases.

Freindship Work Camps

Post-war Simpvp saw a lot of Francillian 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

Recruit & Trooper bases are erected to house many displaced and homeless newer members of the group, 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.

Soon after, the Francillian builders & allies got to work on restoring the base and re-instating it as Francillian Capital City. Early April saw more work on the Francillian 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. Another HSOF event hosted at 3 Words, The 1st Francillian base Competition where the biggest and best bases across the Francillia 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, Francillian 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

A new clan had been founded in May 2021, the Confederacy of Man, consisting of Spanish players who were never incorporated into COF like the Spanish Inquisition. These Spaniards hated Francis and all Francillians, and publicly antagonized them by declaring "HSOF Elites will be hunted". However in retrospect, it seems this comment was what got COM hunted. Father Xexc had infiltrated COM by sacrificing a abandoned HSOF farm base, beleiving Xexc had truly defected to COM they invited him to their Capital City, Nueva Confederada, which was shorty after raided and griefed by the Francillians.

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.

The Confederacy Francis war would go quiet for the next few weeks as the confederates regeared and rebuilt and Francillian spies infiltrated them.

Empire of Francis

The Second Empire

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 Pope of HSOF, Lord held a vote to reform his beloved Empire. The vote passed and the Empire of Francis is reformed in the stead of the Holy States. COF celebrated at the city of Hype Base, where the first iterations of Francoin were experimented with. Around this time, YMP had begun to enter a phase of activity and pride in themselves, their PvP skills were rather formidable and started to pose a threat to the big three: the Church of Francis, Order of Wilbur and GS Trading Co. (the three most powerful clans at the time) who all agreed to join in a trilateral alliance, which became GSFW

YMP had been targeting COF & GS assets, including the Pope Inauguration Ceremony at the former HSOF outpost at 100k 100k where a small force of YMP savages attacked, instigating a hour long battle between COF x GS vs YMP. The Battle was ultimately won by the COF x GS coalition, but this would only be the start of a long and toxic period of conflict now known as The GS YMP Conflict of 2021 or the 'GSFW-YMP Conflict'. GSFW members would go on to grief multiple YMP bases and battle YMP on multiple occassions, however YMP had a secret weapon (X-Ray) which helped them acquire tens of bases which they relentlessly pillaged and griefed.

For a brief period, the Francillians close off recruitment to stop YMP spies and worked on stability in the clan in the turbulent time late 2021 was. The propaganda department is once again reactivated and started focusing on adverts, posters and movie production.

End of the Confederacy-Francis War

The Confederacy-Francis War was still active at this point, however after a successful spy operation, Francillians gained access to most of COM's bases. On the 27th August, the Empire of Francis strikes the bases as well as one of YMP's bases. Later COM would disband due to inactivity among ranks and the Francillians would claim victory over the war. The Francillians also absorbed many of COM's members who would go on to become devout disciples and citizens of Bestia Papa, a glorious COF city lead by IAmTheSheriff.

But that didn't leave the Empire without enemies, The GS YMP Conflict of 2021 had still been active around this time and the Francillians had been the biggest supporter to GS during the war, which had huge casualties on both sides. However a informal peace was declared around November, to which GSFW embraced but according to spy intelligence the rebels in YMP had been planning another war specifically against the Francillians, but at the time didn't have enough coords to enact their plans and was postponed so YMP could X-Ray more COF bases.

Return of the Church

After a party and Church ceremony at New Hammerhall on December 30th, the Empire of Francis returns to it's traditional name; Church of Francis. Lord1 however kept the title of Emperor, as there was already a Pope and he didn't want to give up leadership yet. Another victory came as the vile YMP was permanently jailed after over half a year of X-Raying COF bases, to which they then disbanded and left the server, bringing an end to the years of conflict. However shortly before this, the Order of Wilbur declared it's withdrawal from GSFW, ending the short lived Super-Alliance.

The subsequent period would be defined by a slight dip in church activity, many Francillian builders had lost their homes to the repugnant YMP and the vast Francillian legions had been left with no more rebels to battle. however some members still played and would spent a lot of time hunting spawn terrorists and providing a level of support to Wilburian spawn campaigns.

International Lord1 Day 2022

To celebrate the Emperor on the day he joined 3 years ago, COF planned a parade which hosted lots of other clans and players on the server. Players from the Order of Wilbur, GS Trading Co., The 88 and many neutrals came to show their support to the legendary COF leader, and a very unorganised military march was displayed.

Collaboration on the Map Art Competition

With the 2022 Map Art Competition starting, Francillians were quick to brainstorm ideas for a group map entry. Soon after, artist IAmTheSheriff put together a design and the crew at Hype base 2 started clearing the area and building. Mostly Lord1 would make the map but some helped supply mats and place blocks. These efforts paid off as their map won the competition with 32 votes.

Lord1 becomes King

Weeks of begging Yukarion had paid off, Lord1 was given the Crown of SimPvP. COF then hosted the coronation at the city of Bestia Papa. Pope Xexc would crown Lord1 as the Holy King of SimPvP. 20 players from across the realm had attended. Also around this period, COF saw a moderate intake of new members, of which performed many public works projects, whilst the majority of the other active Francillians worked on their personal bases and stockpiled resources.

COF hits 3 years old

From May to August 2022, COF slowly inducted new members like ChuckFuk, LPmaster, Agekka and Amanako. Not only new members would grace the server with their presence, but OG COF from 2020 would sometimes return to build or partake in events and festivities. Some of these events would include Church ceremonies at new bases like the blossoming 'Name Pending'. Francillians would also partake in the creation of The Frantion, a megalithic obsidian spawn building designed and organised by the blessed disciple Unkn0wnSFR.

Around a week later, the sequel to the SimPvP Boxout Championship from 2021 would be hosted. The SimPvP Boxout 2: Ring of Fire would be held near spawn on the 6th of August, massing a total of 24 players. Ultimately, server owner Yukarion would take home the victory after destroying 4 opponents at the same time by himself. Two days later, the Church would hit 3 years old.

MrDavid99 Becomes Pope

Pope Xexc decides to step down and leave COF on the 22nd of August, subsequently the Priests hold a vote for the selection of a new Pope. After 24 hours, MrDavid99 wins with 9 votes with Tenced coming close second with 8. On September 3rd, a Inauguration event is held in the ruins of Gibraltar Castle which was built by David and other Spanish-Francillians and then griefed in 2020 by the Peoples Coalition. 15 Players turn up to listen to the Pope's speech and then fights are held in the arena, David 1v1's everyone who turned up and beats every single opponent.

Theology

Francis was found in Syracusai, after a few weeks as Syracusai developed, Lord1 housed him. Francis went on to be a Fellowship of the Kittens Elder God, and was first worshipped in the early months of 2019. Francis is believed to be God of SimPvP, and his followers are responsible for enacting his will and protecting fellow praisers. Francis also has a sheep son called Olgrem, and is considered to be the God of War with some failed branches of COF named after him, like the Olgremese Templars.

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: Pope & Priests -> 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. As of 2022, the Legion system is mostly unused and stands as more of a ceremonial aspect of COF.

---

Lord Legion

General: Emperor Lord1

Unlike the other legions, the Lord Legion consists of new generation Francillians and knights who don't identify with the other legions. It is also the largest legion but most members are lazy and never turn up to fights.

---

Spanish Legion

General: General Power

The Spanish legion consists of Spanish speaking Spaniards from Spain. Highly affiliated with the Spanish Inquisition.

---

Norse Legion

Generals: Father Corleone, General Montana

The Norse legion consists of Scandinavian Francillians

---

Meme Legion

General: MrMeeps

The Meme Legion is the result of the clan 'Meme.' being incorporated into the Church of Francis

---

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.

---

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

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.

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. However in modern day SimPvP warfare, it's unstrategic to limit multiple troops to a single combat role, so FAF as a branch quickly went defunct but it's presence lingers here on the wiki and on the Francis discord in the form of old roles, however the strategies developed for FAF are still in use.

Task Force Fury

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.
