The '''Latvian Soccer Dogs''' were an alliance originally formed with the aim to "help protect nations and individuals from larger countries and alliances that LSD rhetoric claimed to be satellites of the [[World Police]]", who allegedly "sought to control them". Originally created between the nations of [[Sassari]] and [[New Sovia]], it later included other nations such as [[Adina]] and [[Unitas]] - before all nations but [[Unitas]] left resulting in a situation where functionally only individuals remained. The official goal of LSD was to "provide like-minded individuals a place where they would no longer have to be part of nations whom they felt were dedicated to repressing their freedom, and to provide new economic and defensive opportunities for its members." The alliance was open to any individual or nation who wished to join, and they planned to "increase trade links and infrastructure between the nations".

On the 7th of September 2019, the [[Entente]] and [[SATO]] launched a joint operation<ref>[[Entente]] statement: https://old.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/d1d0dj/the_ententes_statement_regarding_yesterdays/

These leaks happened to accidentally dox and reveal real-life photos of LSD members, leading to their quick deletion by Icenian authorities after this was pointed out to them. The leaks were used to "accuse" LSD of plotting to destroy [[Icenia]] in a civil war<ref>Icenia leaking LSD chats and doxxing LSD members: (original, deleted) https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/d1ybc7/the_dog_days/ <br />

The remnants of the Latvian Soccer Dogs after the [[Entente]]'s attack fled to [[Laconia]]'s capital city, Mt. Doom. In gratitude, [[ashnwill]] gave Laconian oligarch [[FRESH_candy]] bypass permissions to the reinforcements that the late LSD vault was constructed with. After several weeks, Laconia felt that things had calmed enough to make a dash for these resources. They also reasoned that the World Police would only be happy to see the allegedly hostile vault pyramid removed. This gamble proved wrong when they were ambushed on the way back home by World Police forces. After a short period of quiet, Mt. Doom was attacked by the World Police, starting the [[Entente-Laconia War]].

LSD, during its early days on CivRealms, spearheaded by [[ashnwill]], set up a bunker in [[Varathia]]. Some members formed the affiliated [[Nestlé]] Corporation, aiming to create competitive XP and gear infrastructure. After [[Pirater]] raided a newfriend (who was a hacker), ashnwill abandoned the project by deleting the LSD discord and removing everyone but [[core_blaster]] from the namelayer groups.
