2022 Roblox-Growtopian War for Expansion

The 2022 Roblox-Growtopian War for Expansion is an ongoing military conflict between the Robloxian Republic and Growtopia that started on December 30, 2022. On December 29, 2022, Minister Alex Parkland of Roblox, formally declared war on Growtopia after running a war declaration proposal through the Robloxian Congress, where both Houses had over a 2/3 majority in agreeing to the proposal.
Parkland justified the war goal by stating "Growtopia's population continues to decrease. Before the land falls to native tribes and we get a repeat Stardew Valley, Roblox needs to take their land through military force in order to expand our growing nation." Prime Minister Galileo Santeo of Growtopia responded, saying "Growtopia was forged out of native tribes. Seizing our nation through violence because of your own goal leaves thousands of unnecessary deaths on both your side and ours."
On December 30, Parkland mobilized 15,000 Robloxian troops into the West Growtopia state, which is 60% of Growtopia's population. GameWorld Nations predicts that Roblox will efficiently seize control of Growtopia by January 3. As of 3:08 PM 12/30/22, there have been 567 deaths from the war on the first day.
