I wanna add that ibxtoycat was one of the first pioneers to this "Minecraft experiment" format with his fanbase. He originally started minecraft social experiment ideas just like MagicGum 5 years ago, (3 years before MagicGum) with Minecraft realms and having his fan base sorta larping to the idea with his social experiments. This itself was more of a beta version of "Minecraft Civilizations", but his input did make me wonder and believe that he is one of the reasons why Civilization videos are so popular today even if people might not realize or remember. His Minecraft Communist Server Experiment is one of the most popular videos on his channel.

I was one of the original people that watched magicgum from his first theory videos to his SMP too! Yeah.. unfortunately it was a fail. Despite how much of a mess it was, it is still THE favorite smp I have ever played on. I have tried finding another SMP over the years to find the same vibe I've gotten from his trapped smp to no avail. The fact that mobs could actually kill you. The fact that death have real consequences. The sense of danger and the importance of allies. Trust and betrayal, allies and enemies... There is a friend that I still actively talk to till this date I met through that smp! It will forever have a special place in my heart. We often talk back about it and documents everything we can find about it. Due to it being a fail, its history is pretty much erased off the internet, and nobody knew what happened in it aside from the participants. I'm so glad you made this video! I met my group on magic's discord then we stuck together throughout the whole smp. The hiding type with underground bases. Nothing can ever replicate the feeling of having clown's streams on the backgroud while panicking, calling the whole team on at 2am because clown raided our base. Checking his and vandrayk's cords live, if we are ever getting close to him. NOTHING. Can ever replicate the feeling when one of our most trusted member for 1 month turned out to be CLOWN's friend and spy, and the one that's been ratting out our cords the whole time. Clown made a video on that entire situation that I would kill to watch again. It is privated after he joined lifesteal (very fair as the quality doesn't catch up at all). Clown blew up shortly after that, very deserved from his sheer pvp skills. If only there is a way to see old vods from magic's and clown's streams. After claiming blocks became a thing the server died down a lot. Despite our trapping strategies we still got bullied hard by clown and kings of the end. I wasn't lucky enough to get into the later events magic made. I've witnessed my friend participate in some tho. Was really fun to watch as well. I've never participated in Ish's events. However, his content is the only other that reminded me of magic's. It is a lot more storytelling focused as you said, makes them easy to attach to and pick a team to root for! Apologies for wall of text haha. Me and my friend as two nerds has been trying to document as much things from the trapped smp as possible. I really shocked to see a 2024 video to talk about it. I still haven't given up on civilization videos (that's why I'm here, obviously). Maybe one day someone can be as great as those two had done...

[@toastyroll]

The funniest thing about the SMP to me is how we went through like 5 months of planning for the server to be taken offline after 3 months. For me, the mobs were kind of a pain point in my experience with the SMP, as I really focused down on the faction aspect of the server, and although I was fine with the death ban, it was made worse when you didn't have any idea of what the plug-in mobs could do mechanically. I still wish I was able to get some more hours in before it was shutdown though, I miss running EON, making textures for the server's pack and I miss Magic's community being active.

You're right in saying that Ish changed the game when it comes to Minecraft Civilization Events but I believe that him and MARCUSK are the currently the top Civ Creators on the platform. I've played in many MARCUSK Events and frankly they're some of the most fun I've had playing Minecraft and the videos never fail to come out great. Both Ish and MARCUSK both focus on the narrative and plot which makes it feel like I'm watching a movie!

[@peterlewis2178]

I don't think he had any actual direct influence on the rise of Civilization videos, but I want to throw in an honorable mention of ibxtoycat. His "Realm Experiment" videos were kind of a prototype version of these civ events, and he did them years before MagicGum started the ball rolling with this trend. A somewhat interesting anecdote, I've been supremely interested in this genre/concept for over a decade. I always had big ideas about it, but being a random nobody, I obviously didn't have the resources to make anything happen myself. That's how I found ibxtoycat's videos, and also how I found Ish's first civilization video. Like a month or so after Ish posted his first civ video, right as it was just starting to catch on but still only had a handful thousand views, I actually found it by specifically searching for a Minecraft civilization video, when the genre didn't even really exist yet.

[@Shiftshapercat]

Thank you for making this video. I was curious to see what the history behind this somewhat shortlived trend was. I keep coming back to these videos like once a year. Honestly I keep rewatching Ish's videos the most. The storytelling and cinematography are great and I keep wondering when another one is coming out. But man, I didn't consider that a lot of Ish's repeat participants are friends, but it makes sense. Not that I view that as rigging the experiment really, but in a way it is kind of necessary, especially if you have 1000 people and most of them would either do their own thing or troll relentlessly unless shown something interesting they could do instead. I know these are a lot of work to do, but I kind of hope they keep happening in some form or another. The storyline of Ish's previous civilization experiment was massive enough that some other participants felt compelled to tell their own perspectives and as someone in one of those videos said, this is exactly how civilizations, history, oral traditions form. Like if Ish ever does another one, I have an expectation that there will be a Sultanate at the very least and there will always be individuals that seek to obtain power by any means.

[@shem6844]

There's this other Minecraft civilization community that quite underrated deserves to be mentioned Stoneworks Organized cities Actual politics Wars with well planned tactics Even religion Having 10,000 wiki pages of server history, in the last 4 REAL LIFE YEARS. It's insane It may be what MagicGum has been trying to replicate. Actually civilizations in Minecraft that act and function like a real nation. I genuinely wonder if he knows about it. He would probably love it Its not just 4 islands with different biomes. (Which they actually made fun of lol) But an actual map with its own geography, each state, kingdom, empire having their own respective land and their own respective borders. The scale itself far massive than any civilization event anyone has ever made even combined. The thing is tho, they're not that we'll known despite the rise of Minecraft civilization. Unlike events that are filmed LIVE, various people having their own POVs and their own recorded footage, admins watching everything 24/7, in stoneworks, they do actual documents which is not as exciting. They also seem to limit their players more on creative freedom. They can still build great structures in their respective land and all but seem to take things more "seriously" in a sense. I personally don't know how it works since I don't know that much and only recently discovered them, but I think there's more restrictions that force players to socialize and work together, which makes sense to prevent divide and solo players causing havoc. I honestly think you should cover a video about them. They kinda deserve it, as well as asking them how things work unlike in regular Minecraft civilization people can immediately be stacked as hell if put enough effort. Hope you see this

[@WinterPains]

Is it in a Playlist on their channel?

[@Mango_Boi]

As someone who plays on the server, people can do pretty much whatever they want (unless it's against the rules which aren't too restrictive, mostly about cheating and toxicity). There's nothing stopping me from making the town hall a dirt hut. Some groups also have varying degrees of freedoms. Some are more strict, while other let people do what they want as long as they contribute. People could run off and set up a claim(a territory which costs 10k), but most eventually get gobbled up by bigger groups if they don't get enough support. It's more competition that does that, because what nation would you rather join? A nation made up of dirt huts or a nation with amazing builds? Most would join the latter so those would survive while the former would collapse. Also eventually a builder would come along and fix things up.

All of this with Mister Beast aged so bad

[@Flipdagoose]

This is a genuinely really well put-together video essay I do have to say ive always been bothered by how later videos are no longer really experiments, since they force players down specific paths and events, instead of letting them create the situations

Parkour civilization is the peak of civilization videos

[@Stoneworks]

I can save the civilization genre of Minecraft videos

[@skyboimc]

you got this

[@DaHouse_Panda]

Amazing video my guy! Honestly such a great documentary about the history of the civ genre for minecraft in general. And while I agree ish is the last of the main 3 making the civilization genre who knows where even he'll take his channel after his next video lol He could continue with civilization events or move on with different ones but that's just my take being part of the community as well lol.

"In Parkour Civilization, no one jumps for the beef.." Was expecting this type of Civilization when clicking on this video

[@theseal126]

Someone mentions mega walls, we all arrive and come to your comment section, we got you W vid btw

[@jamesdavis5167]

I think it’s def sad that it ended so quickly but as he said it’s hard to add anything. I think the whole thing was a great experiment and I personally enjoyed it very much. I do really wish there was more to add but there doesn’t seem to be. Thank you MagicGum for the amazing video.

[@emptycb]

W vid, i used to be crazy about mega walls back in the day so it makes sense that i would love the civ videos as well

[@IsKevin]

I love that you mentioned Ize, he was a crazy pvp maniac back in the day. He was also part of the cube uhc. I miss you PrivateFearless.

[@stoirmslw7195]

What really drew me into these civilization events is how they remind me of the old Dwarves vs Zombies events that PauseUnpause used to be a part of

[@MochaDragonite]

As someone who played like 80 of these events from many creators from 2022-2023 It is an honor to be a part of something this huge imo. Made tons of friends and memories in that time period. Glory to Valhalla nation and all of Minecraft Civilization 🔥💙🐉

[@FinoClips]

such a well edited video! Congtrats!

[@MaybeMango]

As someone who has participated in one of Silver’s civilization videos, it is a kind of crazy but very enjoyable experience

The “civilization” experiments and the “I survived *blank* days” minecraft trends are honestly gold

It was crazy being an ish13c fan like 8 years ago when he had around 30k subscribers and then not watching him for so long and seeing him suddenly blow up
