United Minus Minus-Senntisten Conflict
The UnitedMinusMinus-Senntisten Conflict(Abbreviated as UMM-Senntisten Conflict) was a conflict that nearly lead to the denoucation of the Empire of Senntisten by The United Minus Minus(UMM) and could have lead to war if the situation was not properly mediated.

Precursor to the Conflict
While Senntisten and Orion have not had the best relationship, no one expected any conflict between the UMM and Senntisten to erupt, especially since some believed that Senntisten would join the UMM. However the government of Senntisten's opnion of the UMM was not hospitable, and Emperor Seldom of house Shock, was particularly distrusting of Orion and the UMM. So when Balkania, a country that had shared conflict with Senntisten(See Balkanian War for Sovereignty), tried to join the UMM Senntisten was naturally opposed. Most UMM delegates agreed that angering Senntisten was a bad idea, and Balkania should resolve the conflict with Senntisten before joining the UMM. However some residual conflict was aroused leading to the main conflict.

The Actual Conflict
The conflict was spurred by comments made by Emperor Seldom of house Shock, who referred to the UMM as an ¨Orion Puppet Alliance¨. Executive Councilor Itaqi took this as a personal insult, and called for the denouement of Senntisten by the UMM, However the UMM could not reach consensus because SPQR, a close ally of Senntisten, would not back the resoultion. Even though it would not pass, several individuals repeditly spammed the Senntisten subreddit looking to ¨stir shit¨

Effects
Even if it did not lead to actual fighting the Conflict had some major results. It lead to Senntisten's recognition of the Balkanian State, and opening up stifled diplomatic missions to Balkania. The conflict is also known for resurfacing tensions between Senntisten and Orion.
