North Sea

The North Sea is an independent sea in the Northwest of the Newisle Minecraft Server, currently bordered by Nothernland, Seven, and Wallopia.

Overview
The North Sea is a moderately sized sea in the Northwest of the server, with its only connection with the outside world being through Northernland. It is separated from Pulchra by about 2,500 blocks through the mostly-unclaimed Delta continent. The North Sea region consists of the islands in the North Sea, including

The North Sea region generally spans from the world borders toward the -2546 Z-coordinate (the beginning of "BRBos Weird Land") and the -2128 X-coordinate (the end of the Frostback zone).

Pre-Northern War
The North Sea has historically been claimed by several individuals including Hause, Ataru and John. The oldest settlement still standing in the North Sea is Boom Beach, a small military base defunct after Hause left. Burlington used to have a land claim, titled Burlington Northernland, designed to prevent Northernland from accessing the sea. It was later dissolved diplomatically. Atarius also owned the 3 major islands in the North Sea at some point.

Sometime in mid-2021, Northernland was granted access to the North Sea through its Western expansion. Olibongo formed two countries, named 7 and Frankador, around the North Sea. In November, a trade alliance was created via the North Sea Agreement.

North War & Aftermath
On January 21st, a Northernland C-109 Cargo Plane was shot down by rogue members of the Frankadorian Air Force (FAF), who wished for Saigan independence (the largest Island in the North Sea and the home of Frankador's largest city). It resulted in threats and warnings from Northernland, before cooperation between the two major governments to put an end to the rebellion. On January 26th, multiple public officials in Saiga were hunted down and executed, before Seven was occupied by Frankador the same day.

Northernland began massing troops on the border, before launching a full invasion of Seven on the 29th. Within a few hours of fighting, Seven was completely under Northern control. Northernland then began to attack Saiga, but before they could fully seize it FAF members set off a nuke, killing nearly everyone on the West side of the island.

After the North War, Saiga (the capital of what was formerly Frankador) relinquished control of Saiga to Northernland and was given independence briefly before being absolved into Northernland. Seven was granted independence by Northernland and the North Sea was entirely under Northern control. On February 19th, 2022, Northernland returned historic Wallopian colonies to New Wallopia.
