ISIS (short for Islamic State in Syria) was a nation in iteration 11.0. It was the largest faction on the server—largely due to Ghoul doctrine—and its territory extended from Morocco to Al-Raqqah. It was notable for its large player count and relentless memeraids on the server. It was also the server where Stryker formed his metagroup and became relevant in the community.

Humble Beginnings

ISIS first started on the /intcraftx/ 8chan board. It was claimed by SilentScope88 who ended up being busy for the start of the iteration. He trusted his friend stryker123abc to lead in his place. Stryker logged onto the server to find Ghoul in charge which resulted in Stryker REEEEing and shitting his pants until he was given leader of the faction. Ghoul then taught Stryker the ways of ghoul doctrine. ISIS was strategically located right next to the world spawn in the Sinai, which helped mass recruitment.
