Ren has technically started more wars, but Grian tends to take more initiative in storylines.

[@justaregulardude3195]

Don't forget, Grain may have started 3 additional wars in his Life Series, though not connected to HC directly those were wars fought because of Grian and his side series :b

[@TabysHere]

@@EG_800 Yeah, unless they’re commenting in an alternate universe :)

[@Jaggerto]

It all started when Mumbo lost his trident. Then Grian with Iskall encased Mumbo in obsidian leaving a chest with a trident to replace the lost one. Mumbo is thankful and gave Grian a shulkerbox with obsidian on top with the rule that he cannot break the obsidian with a pickaxe. Grian just used a piston. Mumbo learned from his mistake and gave Iskall an encased gift with diorite inside. Iskall used the diorite to prank False because of her victory during the Head Hunt. Then Cleo found the build and blah blah blah.

[@another_jt]

Except there is no evidence that the diorite that Iskall used came from Mumbo. Iskall found a chest of diorite in his base with a sign that said "diorite for iskall" but he didn't know who left it. Then he found 3 more shulkers and another chest, also without knowing who left them. And, as far as I can tell, no other Hermit has claimed any credit for leaving that diorite there.

[@Smitology]

I personally think that the original thing was that False won the head game at Iskall's expense, the obsidian prank was a separate prank storyline, as the only link was the chest of diorite. But the head game was the motivation, which I think is more important.

[@samueljo7910]

~~it all started when Grian touched my redstone~~

[@anyacad021]

I’d argue that the civil war began with the fork of friendship, since the following obsidian pranks are the reason Iskall had so much spare diorite

[@raivaru3270]

Definitely this

[@RoadToSociety]

The "Oversimplified" of Hermitcraft. Keep up the good work!

[@TabysHere]

Yup, it’s called Grian is CAOS

[@dexterwohlrabe4380]

Very true

[@inexhahalele1341]

Grian is gonna start an actual resistance he’s gonna pan out in a coming episode and then he’s gonna be like “yeah so ive got an actual resistance started…”

[@TabysHere]

He will, he will!

[@mooncellnpc5413]

Nah he'll delegate it to someone else

[@carrott36]

I feel like Ren will be the one to kick it off, probably punishing Grian severely for being a bad citizen.

[@darkhawk155]

I feel like it would be funnier if a bunch of others do the actual resistance setup, but they make their secret resistance HQ inside Grian's base without him realizing.

[@rookeealding2803]

@@mooncellnpc5413 Not if grumbot has anything to say about it. ( sheesh) Also it looks like Impulse might be thinking about being a resistance leader...

[@ludwigvanbeethoven2451]

funny i see that today.. Another Civil War is imminent as Grian and Scar just blew up Doc's redstone xDD

[@Naricie]

Actually, if you go even further back in the prank war, it was actually Iskall changing a sign at Cleo's ship that really set things off. He denied doing that the entire war but then after it was done, he showed a clip at the end of a video revealing that it was him changing the sign all along.

[@HyperKR027]

If I'm not mistaken, I think this was after the chicken and Ren prank. But yeah, a detail that was left out nonetheless.

[@Smitology]

It's basically a network or tree of pranks in the S6 civil war. False steals Iskall's Grian heads and wins the game after a recount --> Iskall builds a "Chicken in a Grian costume" above False's base --> --> Cleo changes the sign to accuse Ren instead --> --> --> False pranks Ren with Grian's help due to the "Grian will help you with any prank" coupon --> --> --> Ren pranks Cleo for changing the sign along with Doc and Impulse --> --> --> --> Iskall adds a sign in Grian's base luring him to Ren's trap --> --> --> --> --> Grian falls for it and gets Doc and Ren back by stealing from the stock exchange with Tango. Tango disguises as False and Grian disguises as Mumbo who is disguising as Grian. --> --> --> --> --> --> Doc, angry at Tango and Grian "touching his bush", gets Xisuma and Wels to sabotage Tango's elytra rockets and kidnap Poultry Man's chicken. This is the most confusing part as Poultry Man has no relation with Grian whatsoever. --> --> --> --> --> --> --> Iskall and Stress attempt to rescue Poultry Man's chicken Sally, but she sadly dies. --> --> --> --> Cleo, Joe and Jevin prank Impulse by creating a "don't kill people" sequence of rooms --> --> --> --> --> Grian makes it ironically lethal by adding lava --> --> --> --> --> --> Joe gets Grian back for ruining the message of the prank by pouring lava over his base --> --> False and Ren prank Iskall by building a diorite cake above his sandcastle --> --> --> Iskall gets Grian's tnt services to blow up the cake (and his castle)

[@darkdragoness5]

I think Grian is trying not to be predictable this season, along with spending less time on the Hermitcraft server to enjoy other things, including the ability to go outside

[@connormcconnell7805]

"I'm not gonna start any wars" **The tool he used to instigate the newest war falls from the sky**

[@eduardpeeterlemming]

Grian made some pranks in s6 and that became civil war, He kept changing grass to mycelium in s7 and he made Mumbo a cool "tree house" in s8. Grian just likes to be different and mischevious like Loki

[@icarusblues7699]

Grain's favorite quote would be this : "Who wants to start a revolution" -Oversimplified Kaiser Wilhelm

[@another_jt]

It's all the fault of False's Twitch chat, they were the ones that gave her the idea of using chorus fruit to raid Iskall's head vault (she credits them in her video, and as one who may have suggested it I was glad to see her try it). Then she seemed to think it was cheating so she only took 5 of them, so this whole thing was because of 5 little Grian heads. Even funnier that Iskall later revealed that chorus fruit was the intended way to get into the vault.

[@lotusasche4183]

Grians that little brother who you all love despite his antics and nonchalantly ends up bringing the hermit family together and building that comradere. His Chaotic Neutral resonates with my Chaotic Neutral. Especially when you mix Grian and Scar, you got the little brothers and then Big Brother Doc who has this patience in returning the pranks to them ten fold like a Dad scolding them. He kind of looks out for them in a way. lol this is my favorite Trio.

[@MarcuustheMoose]

Iskall called him Brian for a while in season 6, which is funny because later that season Sahara happened.

[@justinzhang7435]

If you think about it, Iskall caused the season 6 war with the bird, and the season 7 war by deciding to create the 1 diamond per 10 * 10 area rule, leading to the hermits electing someone onto the diamond throne leading to the turf war.

[@epicsoupgamer3989]

You should make a history of Con Corp video, they were around for multiple seasons and had a big impact on server politics

Thank you for always keeping the hermitcraft tfans updated and bringing us high quality entertaining animations. I love and appreciate what you do and want you to improve and grow even more. Maybe a way of doing that could be taking some storytelling classes or whatnot. It sometimes be hard to follow the twists of the plot that you narrate and it can miss some important details or structure. I understand if it's not my place to suggest things that I feel are helpful feedback, you do what you think is best

Great video as always, animation is funny and on point! Also, any fans that haven't yet should really watch this guy with closed captions on. Between the accent and the admittedly strange names of the hermits, the results are hillarious. For example, "Iskall happens to have a lot of diorite, and we all know what happens with Iskall and diorite" becomes "is he'll have a lot of thyroid, and we all know what happens with israelian diorite".
