War of the Coalition

The War of The Coalition (Also known as the Obby Bomber War and the Ransakistani Conflict) was a roughly two-week long war against the unrecognized nation of Ransakistan by a new group on the server known as 'The Coalition', primarily consisting of SATO, UDF, Entente, and Mirian forces, though many non aligned nations such as Lusitania and Coventhia were involved as well.

The Obby Bombings
Over the first week of December 2019 several large nations were obby bombed. SPQR would be the first to be bombed, followed quickly by Gensokyo, Icenia, Coventhia, Okashima in Yoahtl, and Westminster in the Commonwealth all respectively being bombed, though a second attempt at obby bombing Icenia was prevented in large part due to quick mobilization of -,- forces to the city.

Discovery of Cumdragon and Establishment of The Lusitanian Line
Within one week of the bombings taking place, an effort was made to try to find the location of Ransakistan and Parker's crew of obby bombers. The original assessment of the situation by most world leaders was that the group had simply dropchested obsidian all over the map, a thought which was backed up by the fact that the group simply killed themselves after completing their missions. However, attention was soon turned toward the possibility that skybridges existed, when after a interrupted attack on The Commonwealth, it was discovered that many of the Ransakistani crew were fully geared. A search for sky bridges was soon attempted and very quickly Commonwealth player Lodish discovered one which traversed the expanse of the HJE. Lodish would become the first true casualty of the war as he followed the skybridge to the location the group was hiding out-the Cumdragon vault-and was pearled and kept there.

Abandonment of the Lusitanian Line and the UDF Theater
After the pearling of ChrisChrispie and Hockey, and with Lusitania unable to be properly defended by members of the Coalition, an order was put out to remove all players from the nation. Defensive infrastructure around Lusitania was disabled and a pullback to within the Icenian boarders was called. About a month prior to this, a work-in-process vault was found around the 0,0 area in the land of Imperial Truidence. This vault was being constructed by old 1.0/2.0 Ancaps who had justified the construction of the vault based on original claims to the region, claims that had been defunct for almost two years. The result was the planning of "Operation Icarus" by the UDF, which would be aided by some outside consultation, to disable the vault. This was done, after much concern from coalition and UDF higher ups shortly after the abandonment of Lusitania, and proved to be a massive moral boost for the Coalition.
