=== Generic War Period ===

''Main article: [[Estalia-Rhode Island War]]''

Domestic attitudes in the People's Republic of Western Boundary strongly opposed [[Estalia]], but also opposed [[Rhode Island]] due to their support of [[Blockchainistan]] during the Western Jungle War. As such, the government took several steps to ensure neutrality in the Generic War. They broke off an aliance with the [[Kingdom of ErrorL]], then lead by ZachAttack after the departure of most of its players after the KOEL-Titan Conflict.<ref>{{Cite Discord message|sender=MrJoCrafter|sender-link=MrJoCrafter|date=August 10th, 2022|text=@everyone With the assent of the Queen of Makai, the People's Republic of Western Boundary has officially withdrawn its alliance with the Kingdom of ErrorL (KOEL) for the following reasons:

1) The KOEL's playerbase is mostly no longer playing on the server.

=== Comparison with [[Gensokyo]] ===

Western Boundary is often compared to [[Gensokyo]], and sometimes for good reasons. [[MrJoCrafter]] sarcastically referred to Western Boundary as "gensokyo but based" in an early recruiting push, possibly taking a jab at Gensokyo's [[World Police]] alignment during [[CivClassic]]. But despite jokes being made about it from both sides, the two nations are incredibly dissimilar. Both nations have a Japanese aesthetic and are based on the Touhou Project series, but that's about where the similarities end. Western Boundary is Shintoist (or follows a Shinto-based religion, at least), while Gensokyo is Taoist, and both nations use completely different parts of the vast chasm of Touhou lore. This is (incidentally) reflected by the two nations' positioning on the CivMC map, with Western Boundary at the Southwestern edge and Gensokyo formerly at the Southeastern edge.
