In this video, I put 1000 Minecraft players onto 4 islands, each its own civilization. Each player had the freedom to do whatever they want, but they only had one life. Will there be democracy? Will there be war? Which nations will be triumphant? Find out now!

More info:
Out of 8000+ applicants, 1200 players were accepted to play in my 1000 Player Civilization Experiment (also known as "Season 2"). Before the event began, players selected which island they wanted to join—plains, desert, snow, or jungle. Each day, all players logged on at the same time, and session lasted around 1-2 hours. For the most part, players could do whatever they want, including mining for resources, running a business, becoming a leader, or fighting in war. We did set a few limitations on the players to promote a better experience, like banning random killing (RDM) as well as disabling most Minecraft enchantments.
DISCLAIMER: While most of the footage and plot information in this video accurately represents what actually happened in this event/experiment, some moments have been modified, reshot, or entirely fabricated for purposes of simplification or storytelling. If you want to know EXACTLY what was real/scripted, or if you just want to learn more about how I made the video, I posted a 3-hour live stream on my "ish 2" YouTube channel explaining the specifics.

    A minute of silence for Wazzock, the hero who sacrificed 7 people and himself becoming a criminal to make a long peace time
  • @11epicnoob
    The fact that the Central Island, meant to be contested territory, was made into true safe grounds and a place for unity is amazing
  • @Days-ru8jh
    Zombta finishing Davarit’s plan is literally peak writing 😭😭
  • @Days-ru8jh
    Turkey’s development into being a global legend is insane. Turkey, dripchicken, and wazzock gotta be my favorite out of everyone
  • @rean31
    Wazzock and AFreakingTurkey had great character development, but can we all just take a moment to appreciate Elanuelos villain arc? Dude was GREAT.
  • @sedail.is.among_us
    So you're telling me that for absolutely free, I get to watch a video about made-up civilizations in a cool block game with cinematographic prowess comparable to actual professionally done movies? an absolute masterpiece that deserves more
  • @ntmkvlogs1386
    The fact that this just... happened: like, with no script, just the product of power, communication, and motivation, is simply amazing. Really makes you think that if this is how complex the relations can be among 1000 people, the intricacy of world affairs must be that much more astonishing.
  • The fact that one dude’s death started a war just shows how developed he was as a character.
  • @adamscholze
    Shoutout to all the small farmers and builders who, despite not having a name in this video, contributed in a significant way to each of the civs here
  • @fayetopias
    Wazzock is legend. Him deciding to become the villain so his island would stop fighting and unite against a common enemy is genius.
  • When Turkey's death message appeared, it was the minecraft equivalent of the shot heard all around the world.
  • @chilipuuro
    Never did I ever think that a minecraft video would take me on an emotional rollercoaster. This is a whole action movie.
  • @nomirago_
    I honestly think not enough people are actually talking about Elanuelo. Like seriously his story throughout this video is amazing… dude was pulling the strings from the beginning until the very end, his role as the main vilain made the video a 100 times better and enjoyable for everyone
  • @ecilion3047
    Everyone talks about Wazzock but the insane dynamic of davarit and Zombta singlehandedly dissolving the Sultanate with the help of Sap was an insane arc
  • @lithosphereX
    NOooo Shimpatine was killed?! This man just loved his squid
  • @jerrywang1285
    Wozzock is the true definition of a hero. If he couldn't rule the world, might as well make it a peaceful one
  • @os-does
    Zombta avenging his twin brother is a true act of respect.
  • @davidammons2991
    I’m just lost at how I’m genuinely emotional about a freaking Minecraft video right now. Incredible work. Man’s out here directing Minecraft Box Office hits.
