European-Border Disputes (S8)

The European Border Disputes have started as a border conflict between the Bavarian Socialist Republic (formerly Germany/formerly the Rhenish Republic), the Grand Oligarchy of Prussia and the City-State of Hatersbourg.
Due of the announcement of a huge German-centric state by the user pigeonperson101, as well as the recreation of Alekia by user Consul Kieaseby, the dispute has quickly spiraled into a continent-wide conflict.
As of the 5th of January 2022, the dispute involves 13 nations.
== Beginnings of the Border-Dispute ==
The conflict began with the creation of Prussia by TheLetterH on the 5th of December, 1 day after the first advertisement of a Germany by Tuozakka. The then-time Germany claimed territories similar to Imperial Germany before IRL WW1, and Prussia claimed lands similar to the North German Confederation.
Shortly after the creation of Prussia, TheLetterH contacted Tuozakka, demanding them to leave Prussian-claimed territories, integrate into Prussia, or face a future war. Tuozakka tried compromising, by each of them reducing claims to reach similar sized nations, TheLetterH declined such compromise however. 
Hatersbourg was formed on the 13th of December, 2019, claiming territories encompassing Luxembourg and Rhineland-Palatinate. The latter part overlaps with Prussian and German claims, thus got dragged into the border conflict.
== Events in #world-news ==
On 13th of December, Prussian Oligarch TheLetterH made an announcement on #world-news on the Globia discord-server. In that announcement, he claims that Germany had been acting highly aggressive in recent past, that the "...unstable leader..." Tuozakka spread lies about the Prussian nation, and called for everyone to boycott diplomatic relations with them. Most noteworthy, TheLetterH said Germany claims rightful Prussian land.
Immediately after, Tuozakka made an announcement of his own, citing Prussias threats, failure of compromise, and the above announcement as reason to prepare for war, and states evidence as to why Prussia claims German land, and not the other way around. Tuo called for diplomatic boycott as well.
On the 14th of December, Germany reformed into the Rhineland Republic, now just claiming lands around the Rhine.
This event was preceeded by the creation of Franconia on 13th of December, which would partake in the dispute in a diplomatic way, trying to calm down the conflict overall. The Leader of Franconia, user Tachtra, attempted a Conference, where the border disputes between Prussia, Rhineland and Hatersbourg should have been resolved without violence, but both Prussian and Rhenish unwillingness to give up any more land rendered the whole organisation without effect. After that, Franconia would take a diplomatic stance on the side of the Rhineland Republic, though would otherwise stay neutral.
The conflict died down in activity for a while, due to all leaders waiting patiently for the release of season 8.
However, on the 13th of January, Tuozakka announced the creation of a Defensive Pact, and invited anyone to enter. This was met with an Announcement by TheLetterH, calling this alliance a threat towards the Soverignity of Prussia. (This is also around the time the Rhineland Republic starts to align itself with the Communist countries of Globia, like the Venezuelan Socialist Union and the Yugoslavian SFR.) As of 4/02/2022, the alliance Tuozakka created led to no partners joining.
On the 20th of January, the Rhineland Republic reforms once again, this time into the Bavarian Socialist Republic. Thus, it has officially aligned with the communist countries of Globia. Upon the announcement of this reform, TheLetterH seeked a military alliance on his own, and decided to try it with Czechoslovakia. He officially cited the reason to "...defend Europe from communist influence and protect the ideals of liberty and free speech in Europe.", indirectly stating that communist countries would not posess such qualities inside their nation. This was met with a response by the leader of the Venezuelan Socialist Union, IcyMC_, expressing worry about this clear anti-communist sentiment of the alliance. Similar response came from Yugoslavia.
== Events outside of #world-news ==
On the 12th of December, user CKTV/Pakistan claims to have been sent by Prussian leadership to solve the border dispute. However, all this diplomat did was threaten Germany/the Rhineland Republic in its entirety, to crush it in a war, insult German/Rhenish citizens and leadership, and claim to be able to cause a war between Germany/Rhineland and Prussia, citing the Alecian-Alekistan War of S7 as evidence for this. The same user would do similar actions elsewhere. In all cases, Prussian Leadership didnt take any responsibility for this user acting inappropriately, saying the actions of the citizens arent the actions of the Government.
On the 14th of December, a discord user by the name of "the sunny anamator" has been found to be a spy inside the Rhenish discord server, after Tuozakka did a background check on who that user was before accepting the citizenship application this user proposed. The user has been linked to CKTV/Pakistanball, either as an alt, or a friend. This incident has been met by outrage by Tuozakka, and claimed Prussian leadership was behind the spy. However, as said before, Prussian leadership claims no responsibility for the action of their citizens.
On the 19th of December, Tuozakka claims to have found another spy, a user by the name of Sidled, who is friends with a Prussian citizen. Tuozakka cites this as evidence alone for Sidled being a spy. This was met with more widespread backlash against Tuozakka however. Da_Sl0th cites in the Globia Global article from the 27th of January, in defense for his friend Sidled:"Sidled first joined the server in season 7 on my invitation to help in the Zapadoslavian war, after playing for 10 minutes he decided that it was too late to join the server at this point and would come back next season. Months later when countries have started to form for season 8, I invite sidled again to join my Nation, Aryavart. [...] Then, I decided to shut down Aryavart and join Prussia, while Sidled decided that it would be fun to fight each other and we decided to be in opposing countries, and so he joined the Rhineland. 
Tuozakka is familiar with Prussian espionage, he has caught one of their spies once before and has taken great pride in doing so, but it has made him wary of anybody who joins his faction, sometimes even paranoid. The Prussian oligarch, TheLetterH claims that the spy wasn’t sent by the Prussian - 3 - government but was rather the action of an individual at his own will, and that Prussia doesn’t condone his acts. Because of his past experiences with Prussia, Tuozakka now does a basic background check of everybody that joins and then decides if they can join their faction based on if they have any Prussians as discord friends. He thus expelled Sidled from his faction and started a defamation campaign against the Prussian government, all because I had him as a friend on Discord. Tuozakka argues that he is sure of Sidled being a spy because he only joined the Globia Discord 6 days prior to the incident, and because he is friends with me on Discord."This incident was followed by Tuozakka using more and more questionable causes to bring harm upon Prussia, to push it in a Negative light. 
==The Forming of Big Germany by pigeonperson101==
On the 21st of January, user pigeonperson101 formerly claiming vast lands in north africa and the middle east, has announced that he would move his entire nation into Europe, basing himself around Germany. However, this territory would stretch from eastern France to the borders of IRL modern-day Russia.
These claims overlap with following nations: Prussia, Bavaria, Franconia, Hatersbourg, Czechoslovakia, Livonia. The lands overlap with the SRR (sewer rats republic) as well, but this country was allies with Pidgeon as of the creation with his country.
User pigeonperson101 claimed to have a massive mercenary army to his disposal, totaling 120 members from a pvp-server, with which he would enforce his claims. An article from the Globian Global apparently busts these claims, stating that only 12 of these 120 are willing to fight for pidgeoons crusade, and that not many more are even aware of his plans. This article overall reduces pidgeoons threats into mere bluffing.

== Alekia-Franswitz Dispute ==
The re-establishment of the State of Alekia, previously located in Bulgaria and Northern Greece in S7 created immediate conflict when it claimed the southern areas of France and Northern Italy, which had already been claimed by the Franco-Swiss Union. Several negotiations have taken place between the two nations, although conflict seems likely due to both sides not willing to back down.
== Fall of Prussia ==
In the last hour of the launch of Season 8, H arbitrated. Prussia was in panic with the main brain gone so Pakistan tried to stage a coup d'état but failed. Nippy fled to the Pacific Union, Thinqq and Pakistan moved to Germany and Da_Sloth became a co-leader with GTo in Spitsbergen. T4pica was the only oligarch online but did nothing to stop this collapse. Later on, Pakistan complained on the segregation in Germany and moved to Spitsbergen.
