In a new era of Cold Wars, Lucite began to see neighboring states, such as Apex, a nation with cities on the Alga Sea, as potential threats to their hegemony. Following the proclamation of the Republic of Bayonne and thus freedom of Freehold from Apex, Lucite declared itself the victors and established the Alga Sea Treaty Organization (ASTO) to prevent future conflict. Tensions remained high among most nations in a system of forced rivalry, but none could go to war. Thus defense treaties and land claiming seemed the most effective way of setting borders and demarcation zones. More cold wars would follow the Apexo-Lucitian conflict, such as the cold war with [[Lunden]] on the [[Belport Sea]] where a massive military presence was established in [[New Concordia]] by the Emperor and the Imperial Admiral, Ryicidal. The final cold war was the three-way cold war with [[Volare]] and [[Neo-Canada]], notably ending on 4/20. The Demilitarized Zone between the walls constructed outside of [[Konin]], [[Portland]] and Volare was quickly overgrown with fields of marijuana, and tanks were left immobilized among the fields. | In a new era of Cold Wars, Lucite began to see neighboring states, such as Apex, a nation with cities on the Alga Sea, as potential threats to their hegemony.

Despite its controversial standing, the actions of Lucite inspired the operations of nations in the future, as well as led to the administration to create rules to address and limit conflict between nations, leading to a statement on a forum post by Lucite's long-lasting leader, Jmvvana (Joe), that ''"...nations don't have power over anyone, they are to be like a sticker or a fancy hat you can wear."'' | ||
Lucite was officially and permanently disbanded with the end of the map, though, its legacy provides both an insight on the limitations of nations, as well as a goal for the creation of a similar community for many seeking to create nations in the future. | Lucite was officially and permanently disbanded with the end of the map, though, its legacy provides both an insight on the limitations of nations, as well as a goal for the creation of a similar community for many seeking to create nations in the future. | ||
