[[File:Ixmap3-10-15.png|thumb|right|400px|A March 2015 map. This is typical of the 2014-15 "Golden Age" period; observe the Darklands, geopolitically complicated IxProp (Sarpedon), and also features an early-ish Corumm and Heku.]]
The Low Golden Age was a period in which activity was buzzing, but the region was still saddled with many Darklanders and other types of malcontents. It forms a prelude to the High Golden Age, also perhaps better known as the Absurranian Era, where the majority of play revolved around the allegiance of the United Islamic Federation, a country established by a player named Absurrania. Abs joined in early or mid-2014 and took a liking to most everything in the region and was briefly aligned with Urcea and LOTA before switching to the Darklanders. As has happened in that time, allegiances ICly also formed essential blocs OOCly. This era was essentially defined by the LOTA vs. Darklands IC and OOC enmity, in many cases the latter especially lead by myself and CESP. The UIF was the critical hinge point of this ICly, and the Audonians - at that time, essentially a player named Malaysii (and future forms of that) as well as Azura and Montemayor - as swing actors. There were some other loose agent players at this time as well, including the aforementioned Palmeria and Sawra as well as the Talion Union, an on-again off-again member of Ixnay from 2013-2019. Insui may have joined around this time as well if that was not already mentioned at some point above. This period was not all sunshine and rainbows. There was a nonsense incident with a member called Sakatia - the happenings and motivations of which I don't really remember - but the country was divided and formed a long-lasting joke about Sakatia ruling the entire region.
