The '''First Hell War''' was a major world war on [[CivRealms]] between a group colloquially known as the Hell Gang, and a large coalition of allied nations formed to fight them. This war saw a truly massive number of players (over 100) band together to free their allies and bring the Hell Gang to justice. This Gang compromised of citizens of the former states of [[Savaguard]] (now the Confederacy of Independent States, CIS) and a rogue [[Carbon]] member<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/CivRealms/comments/hblzxk/an_admonishment_against_those_who_attacked/</ref> - the owner of [[Hell Vault]], Vanax35. The war began when some of the Hell Gang skybridged and took [[Varathia]]'s incomplete vault in a decisive sneak attack on the 19th of June 2020. During the initial attack, the Central Powers alliance of [[Otonabee (CivRealms 2.0)|Otonabee]] and [[Mount Augusta (CivRealms 2.0)|Mt Augusta]]<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivRealms/comments/gk3n83/announcing_the_central_powers/</ref> assisted in the defense of Varathia, along with members of neighboring [[Cantina]], [[Chungus]] and [[Blackwater]] .<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/CivRealms/comments/hbsmvj/info_on_varathiamta_members_being_pearled/fvattjj?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x</ref> The group retreated with the pearls to Hell, with several accounts logboxed in their attack bunker. An attack on Hell Vault was commenced by the Allies on June 18 and would result in the breaking of Hell Vault on June 22. Throughout the attack multiple nations joined the Allies, making it the largest coalition of nations in the history of the server at the time.

On the 18th of June, a group of ex-Savaguardian citizens and several other allies, -- mostly on alt accounts, ,-- stealthily constructed a small attack bunker in the desert south of Chesham to use to skybridge the Varathian vault directly north. The attackers made effective use of weaknesses in the (perpetually) incomplete vault to disable it largely without Varathia realising. By the time the attackers started hitting snitches within the vault, it was simply too late for the defenders. The Central Powers alliance was invoked, and allies from Otonabee and Mount Augusta were rallied to defend the vault. This proved to be catastrophic for the defenders, with combat around the vault, trench and surrounding desert costing Varathia and her allies several pearls, most notably the MtA mayor xkevio, Ibis1804 and Otonabian binchymonkey<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/CivRealms/comments/hbtkhq/taking_out_the_trash_ibis_final_moments/</ref>.

The Hell Desert, seeing heavy combat throughout the war, was utterly devastated by the combat and skybridges. Much of the fighting took place within the claims of the [[Grand Imperium (CivClassic 2.0)|Grand Imperium]], who were moderately inactive at this stage. Much of the damage remains to this day.
