First Cascadian-Resistance War

Origins:
The alliance between The Resistance and Cascadia was formed when Josey XIII simply told Baxter49 to "set allied" in world chat. Relations were fairly good even after Josey's departure from leadership as SirCallumOfRoslin, Overcooked_Muffin, and Baxter49 negotiated the North American Coalition.https://www.reddit.com/r/citieswar/comments/mlcjc5/the_resistance_gums_and_cascadia_have_formed_the/
Tensions rose over the issue of Mexico City, which Cascadia gave to G.U.M.S to smooth over coalition negotiations in exchange for Miami. Miami was never given, however TR offered up a top city in South America. They proceeded to make plans to move their ally U.E.R. to South America and involve them in the coalition. 
Cascadia co-leader Tom Ganks attacked Mexico City on June 8th, 2021 without warning his fellow leaders. Angered by the refusal to give up a replacement in the first place, the Cascadians decided his attack was justified. After Baxter49 offered to resolve the matter diplomatically SirCallumOfRoslin said he needed time to formulate a response. He then took 2 days to plan out a surprise attack on Cascadia.
The War:
The war began with TR's surprise attack, taking down Cascadia's borders, placing defense stacks within their territory, and attempting to 100% clear every city. The war goals were to secure Cascadia's total absolute annihilation and to control North America. Unfortunately, Peg city soldier and Tom Ganks had built up immensely while in N.S.T.C, meanwhile Baxter49 had a broken treasury acquired in the early days of the controversial Rivalry update. Cascadian counterattacks were able to make The Resistance rethink the war, and without proper support from their allies they decided to make peace.
Aftermath
The peace treated, titled GAWES created a new division along the Mississippi river. All of Central America was given to Cascadia.https://www.reddit.com/r/citieswar/comments/lpwk7v/tr_and_cascadian_agreement_gawes/
The Cascadians had rallied together for the first time since the Sticklandia Wars, and effectively proven that they were a force to be reckoned with. The Resistance learned from their mistakes and began preparations for the knockout blow they would deliver to Cascadia during the Second Cascadian-Resistance War.
