Infinity War

The NATO-Mir War, also unofficially known as the Infinity War, is a major conflict between NATO and Mir, Entente, UDF, and select members of 'The Coalition' formed during the War of the Coalition.

The conflict started during the early months of 2019 and is still ongoing as of today.

First skirmishes
The NATO-Mir war was sparked after Mirians were harassing at the Pinkerton Vault in HJE. As a result of a Mirian fleeing to S4NTA's bunker in Mount Augusta, NATO decided to pop the bunker under the orders of HanTzu of Hallow. The bunker was popped, which led to the start of the war.

The Siege of Pinkerton
In early January 2019, Mir launched a large scale ground attack against Pinkerton. At the time, Pinkerton was a large hole with a bunker at the center. Pinkerton was eventually taken by Mir on February 2nd.

Following the Siege of Pinkerton, and the large Columbian presence there, the UDF would officially join the war.

SPQR Border Crisis
In Late February, HanTzu approached UNC leadership as a result of Mirians being suspected of setting up an attack bunker used to attack Hallow in SPQR. The situation was resolved, with an official statement that the UNC would blockade both NATO and Mirian fighters.

In mid-2019, several NATO nations such as Valyria, Annwyn and Columbia reached agreements with Mir to exit the war.

In late 2019 however, the conflict intensified after LSD was attacked by the Entente and Laconia came to their aid. The Entente progressively joined Mir in their effort against NATO. NATO, on the other hand, received the help of Corvus, Laconia, and LSD.

During the first weeks of 2020, the UDF, which now included Columbia, joined the war on the side of Mir and the Entente and took part in the assault against Pinkerton after NATO took in remaining obby bombers from the War of the Coalition.

The Siege of Laconia
After ashnwill's vault Hotel California was attacked by SATO-Entente forces, and other fellow members of the Latvian Soccer Dogs were attacked in various places around the map, Laconia came to LSD's aid. Laconia allowed the soccer dogs to reside within Mt. Doom, and organized an attempt to salvage the vault materials. They were intercepted on the way back home, leading to the Battle of Hotel California. Later, Laconia's capital Mt. Doom was attacked, starting the Entente-Laconia War in full swing.

The LSD members integrated into Laconia during the 4-month siege of Mt. Doom, and the remaining forces fled to Hallow and the Holy Jaded Empire after the mountain fell.

Eventually NATO involvement in the defense of Mt. Doom led the Infinity War to become a world war after the Entente followed them back to the northwest quadrant after the fall of Laconia, joining Mir's war effort.

The Opening of the Columbian Theater after The Battle of The Crucible
After the successful defense of The Crucible, the focus of the war shifted from skirmishes at NATO vaults to a prolonged siege of Columbian lands. NATO would quickly roll through Rotterdam, the capital of Columbia, and move onto Valyria, outside of The Crucible where they would set up fortifications. Seeing this, many more UDF, Mirian, Entente, and Coalition forces were brought to Valyria to defend the city and the vault.

In March of 2020, Valyria was obby bombed by NATO forces in an attempt to force a surrender. Two days later, Robokaiser was pearled in a skirmish in Polska, by Mirian JKH and Gregy165.

On June 27th, 2020, Coalition forces broke the Hallow Vault after a 24 hour siege. The pearl of FlashMigma was freed and ComradeRick and hockey328 were lost in the process. The pearl of Kicky was gained by Mir.
