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

Hermitcraft is a good representation of the Butterfly effect where a simple prank can turn into a full blown server wide war and change the course of history itself

Grian (Gree-an) Definition: a person who makes war for no reason How to use it in a sentence “War? You’re not becoming a Grian are you?” “You’re such a Grian.”

Having a grain in your server is the best thing

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.

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

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

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)

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.

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

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…”

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

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

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

Came here because Grian's starting another war with Doc. He's come full circle

fun fact about the s6 war, the stolen vault diamonds were hidden in a hidden chest in Docs office. not sure if he ever found it but I did in the world download.

Love the EVO flashback. Long live the Grian Empire.

Grian making a mob farm in EVO SMP lead to all of this

only the OG people from evo SMP knows how chaotic grian is 🤣

EVO: **Literally in shambles** Xisuma: Perfect new hermit

I bring a message from the future: It’s happened again, but this time… he poked the goat.

I still blame bdubs since he is the one who keeps installing tyrants...

In impulses latest stream he basically just starts the trouble by removing the signs on his shop and throwing the book into the pit again

THE SEASON 9 RESISTANCE AGAINST THE KING IS NECESSARY AND INEVITABLE!!!

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

Evo burning in the background tho XD

This dude even got the upside down Pearl in Evo

Grian is really struggling with Not being a Resistance lol

I always thought that grian's name was always grain 🌾

the intro would have been the perfect opportunity to reference grian pronouncing x's name as x-eye-zoomer-void and x in return calling him gee-arr-iain.

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.

Grian truly has an extremely powerful warmonger within him that he can rarely restrain, he single-handedly makes Hermitcraft 20 times more enjoyable of a series to watch through.

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.

No wars yet, yet hopefully that doesn’t stay a yet

Ah, yes. War and chaos and the bloodshed it brings..... these are a few of my favorite things.

Grian is trying so hard to not start a war in season 9. xD

WAR against THE GOAT ahahahahha he poked the goat and now he has a few thousand of dragon eggs hahha

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.

“no wars, yet” well, that aged like milk

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

Right now he has started a war with Doc cause of course he would

“You probably think of this guy here” … so are we ignoring doc’s auto creeper launcher, and his 3k block railgun, and his pet wardens?

I love the idea that people had to be interviewed to get into Hermitcraft

grian just blew up docs mining boar so we are about to have a war

He started another war

Mumbo being the worst mole is one of the few things I remember from season 6 lmao

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

Nah. Looks like this season it will be ren who starts the war, but also the first person to openly defy ren's power and cash grabs.

Grumbot likes war.

I like how mumbo's mustach just fell off 0:09

2 late Grian grumbot just planted the seed of war

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

We can now bump that up to “commissioned” in season 9. He accidentally created a terrorist cell

Cleo is an agent of chaos and she doesn’t get enough respect for it

Tierd of getting pranked by your survermates? Here's a new sign with a new signature. Now you can't tell who they're getting pranked by!

Grain once said Screw backs of bases Screw lives Start wars

Grian is accidentally starting a war through Impulse

0:09 mumbo's moustache 🤣

Whenever hermitcraft war I think of the turf war

This guy is the oversimplified of minecraft

Grian: what happens when u reeeaaalllyyy poke the goat.

Grian has be come the "Loki" of the Hermitcraft server. Where there's a Grian there will alwasy be mischeif.

6:26 When a Serbian dude killed an Austrian prince and his wife, nobody thought that there will be 2 world wars and a cold war waiting for them in the future.

Grain is the military industrial complex of the hermit craft server. Starting wars for no reason

LOVE the Evo reference at 0:31

Are we sure grian isn’t secretly an anarchist from 2b2t

I would like a more oversimplified version of the civil war

I remember how wild season 6 was compared to everything before it

4:50 UHHH that description does match tommy as well

The Man in the chicken costume

This season he didn’t start it, but he nudged people into starting it, by people we mean impulse

Evo reference amazing

I love your videos, they always make me laugh. Keep up the great work!

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".

0:09 Did.....did Mumbo's mustache just fell even before G was accepted to season 6? 🤣🤣🤣

ren has a real bad habit of escalating things like this. its like poking a beesnest, only to die because of the stings. not that i have anything against ren, he's a great storyteller and him escalating things this way usually end up with better content somehow. also, no matter how bad things may seem we know that the hermits will always make sure that there is no ill will between them at the end. i feel like there is more things happening behind the scene than we will ever know

I just got this video in my recommendations right after the start of the Buttercups

Tommy arrives, grian has a stroke

Still one of my top ten channels. Keep up the good work my dude.

tbf this season so far it seems more like Grian is creating a resistance through Impulse *unintentionally* . like mr iThrowAPartyInTheKingsVault all on his own understood the 3 words as "take the claim of the kings throne" lol ig being part of Boatem and therefore neighbors with Grian had a "bad" impact on him

Hey, Grian won't instigate Season 9. Ren's gone crazy with power

Season 9 impulse and pearl : “write that down, write that down!”

Grian: civil war

He is chaos

This channel is simply GREAT!

I LOVE the style

Iskall also change the sign in zombiecleo’s base it was supposed to prank her but iskall changed the sign to “for grian” so I can’t really blame grian for the civil war BUT the other war’s it’s all grian

Grian now technically started a resistance

GRUMBOT: fin i will do it my self

honestly, most of the time he starts them cause he gets bored building, leaving the backside unfinished as he causes chaos

Its been a while great to see you back

just wanna say i love your videos :)

Honestly thought it was 1 Month ago not 1 Minute Looks Great!

This needs part 2.

I believe in grian. He is not going to start a risistance. ... he's going to join one.

Funny that this is showing up in my feed again

WA- This vids never disappoints me another great moment of laughts!

The Civ 5 bit was not lost on me. 10/10

Yes? Another Arisor video!

technically the civil war started with grian stealing from cub’s tree farm
