Background

When Tenochtitlan was founded, it claimed some land which included Anvard. Later, Anvard was settled, and a brief war happened between Anvard and Bobanga. Alexandrian volunteers helped defend Anvard from Bobanga and the country was kept independent.

When the Ez2War began, the Ez2Crew pearled the Bobangan leadership, and Anvard attempted to claim parts of Bobanga. However, the Ez2Crew refused to accept their claim, and defended Bobanga's territorial integrity. During the Ez2War, Anvard bastioned more territory in occupied Bobanga. After the war during the Bobanga Conference and the ensuing Treaty of Tenochtitlan, Anvard annexed part of the Bobangan territory.

In mid-April, discussions began between Eslenti and Bobanga regarding the reclamation of the Bobangan homelands in the southern jungle. For a couple weeks, the Eslenti army lead a brief raids and reconaissance missions on Anvard, killing some sheep and breaking some doors. They retreated and prepared with Bobanga.

May 1st

The May Day Invasion

On May 1st, International Labor Day, Bobangan and Eslentian forces landed in Anvard. They broke into a number of secure buildings and scouted out the territory, scaring away two inhabitants of the islands. An IWW soldier was patrolling the region and was pearled by Bobangan forces. The Bobangan forces went on to occupy the Anvard Castle, and declared victory. The occupation of both Anvard and the southern territories began. Bobanga and Eslenti unified in the Federation of Bobanga, and the Bobangan demands were published in Discord and the subreddit.

Aftermath

After the May Day Invasion, several Anvardians were stuck in occupied Anvard and were at risk of being pearled. IWW agents 4788888 and Narwhal_19 led an extrication operation from the jungle and brought the Anvardians to the IWW embassy in Alexandria. Bobangan forces pursued the Anvardians/IWW to Alexandria, pearling Narwhal_19 there. 4788888 was able to move the rest of the Anvardians out of the city and to a safe location for the rest of the war.

May 2nd

Attack on Napistan

On May 2nd, Bobangan marines landed in Bremerhaven, where they broke into Narwhal_19's house. They were encountered by IWW and volunteer soldiers, and fought back. A brief spat of fighting ensued in the Battle of Bremerhaven, and The_CCC_Rises was pearled along with lvlyryn.

A contingent of IWW soldiers attempted to head south to Anvard to defend the territory, but were intercepted by a Bobangan mercenary, who slayed ExcaliburSword. The IWW forces scattered, meanwhile a Bobangan Marine convoy hit Tolstoy, fleeing before IWW forces could respond.

Raid on Bobanga

Later that day, a group of IWW agents gathered in Bremerhaven to discuss the possibility of a propaganda counterstrike on Bobanga. IWW agents 4788888, Red_Medic_Leader, heyduckhi, Nirvanguard, Gus_Hartsock, and EmDubleYou sailed from Bremerhaven to raid Tenochtitlan and Dar-Al Vexler in an attempt to gain international attention that would stop the war.
