UN war

The UN war (also known by other names) was fought between the United Nations and various opponents, most notably Ninjagoists led by Kareastikuru and Vaushists led by Gallus and Vaush. The war began on 19 August 2020 when Kareastikuru declared that the Empire of Ninjago was now at war with the entirety of the United Nations; turning on its former Axel allies and effectively leaving Ninjago completely internationally isolated. Following two coup d'états, in both Ninjago and the Johanian Republic, Kareastikuru was arrested, officially declared deceased and secretly put into exile in the area led by Vaush and Gallus known as the Vaushist State. Later, Kareastikuru returned to Ninjago where he re-established his power and position as its emperor; leading the Ninjagoists' battle against the UN-controlled State of Ninjago, later the United Nations Military Administrated Zone of Ninjago. Likewise, the Vaushist State battled UN troops numerous times in eastern Europe. The fighting ended with an armistice on 27 May 2021 following the UN's retreat to Central Africa where they established the UN Republic. However, no peace treaty was ever signed, and the two sides are technically still at war, engaged in a frozen conflict. In August 2021, the Myjohanian Union collaborated with Ninjago on a Atomic bomb test, which allegedly unintentionally destroyed the UN Republic's settlements.
== Names ==
In the Myjohanian Union, the war is officially referred to as the Liberation from UNism war.
In Arvidland, the military campaign is most commonly and officially known as Resist UN and Assist Ninjago, although the term UNian war is sometimes used unofficially. The term UN war is most commonly used in Ninjago, Myjohania and Formosa.
In the UN, the war was initially described by the Secret UN Leader as a "police action" as the UN never formally declared war on its opponents and the operation was conducted under the auspices of themselves.
=== Ninja-UN war ===
The term Ninja-UN war is often used in order to describe Ninjago's conflicts with the United Nations. It began with Kareastikuru declaring war on the UN and its member states and is said to have ended following the establishment of the Second Ninjagoan Empire. The war is also seen as being made up of two major conflicts; the First Ninja-UN war, which ended with Ninjago's surrender after ShitCraft IV and the Second Ninja-UN war which was concluded right before ShitCraft V, following the defeat of the UN Military Administration of Ninjago.

The UN War is often defined as having been declared by Kareastikuru right at the end of ShitCraft IV following Ninjago and Orochi's defeat in the Battle of Taipei in which, per international laws enforced by the UN, Ninjago was forced to give up control of their blockade around the island of Formosa, which had been claimed as the Taihoku Prefecture. Kareastikuru's foreign policy had strongly focused on the maintenance of Ninjagoan racial supremacy and for the Ninjagoan Empire to annex areas in his motto heya. The Johanian state of Johanian Taipei was notably close to the Ninjagoan main island which made it a target for Ninjagoan annexation. Ergo, the defeat of Ninjago in Mainland Taipei motivated Kareastikuru's war declaration against the entire United Nations.
This gave rise to Anti-UNism, a bipartisan political movement that advocated for the abolition of the UN.

Kareastikuru's war declaration against the UN was coupled with a manifesto titled The New Rise of Ninjago in which Kareastikuru laid out plans for establishing Orochian and Arvidlandian puppet states, invading Westcoastistan and a second wave of Kurenjingu. This reportedly concerned several loyal Ninjagoists. One of which was the Firipin leader Arenchao, who in collaboration with Myohanian-Johanian politician Myohani, instigated a coup against Kareastikuru. Arenchao's deal with Myohani reportedly included the insurance of Ninjagoan and Nigeruan independence after the planned collapse of the Ninjago Empire.
On September 19, 2020, at 8:15 AM local time, Emperor Kareastikuru was captured and hidden by Arenchao's bodyguards. Kareastikuru was then transfered to Myohani's army at the Ice Hotel in the Myohanian antarctic colony. At 10:30 AM, the emperor was sent to St. John, where a trial was planned to be held. Kareastikuru arrived at St. John the same day on 3:40 PM and was under Johanian President Gallus' authority, directly taken into custody by the Johanian Secret Forces. Later at 7:50 PM, Gallus announced the death of Kareastikuru without citing the cause of death. The remaining Elemental Ninja were forced to surrender their territories to the Johanian, Orochian and UN armies. On September 20, 2020, Arenchao was elected as the new emperor of Ninjago. Moments after his coronation, Arenchao announced the end of the Imperial Reign and Ninjago's complete surrender. High-ranking Ninjagoan officers were arrested, aside from a few, such as Jay Walker, who managed to flee to Raukirland's South New Worldian territories. 
This lead to Orochi and Johania occupying parts of the former empire and the establishment of the UN-backed Constitutional Democratic Monarchy of Ninjago. These events are said to have concluded the First Ninja-UN war.

On October 1, the UN officially proclaimed the Constitutional Democratic Monarchy of Ninjago (CDM Ninjago, or CDMN, later renamed to the State of Ninjago) to have been established as the successor state to the Empire of Ninjago. It encompassed the Ninjago main island, Tsushima and Nigeru Island (controlled by the Autonomous Republic Nigeru). On October 3, Arenchao abdicates from the throne and becomes president of the Republic of Nigeru. Dareth II was elected as his successor on October 4. The UN-backed Ninjagoan state was headed by a UN-elected government with Postman as Prime Minister and Dareth II as constitutional emperor. Many Ninjagoan civilians were deported from former colonial territories back to the Ninjago mainland, but some remained, retaining their language and culture. The Kurenjingu was still denied by Ninjagoan officials, controversially by the Prime Minister.
The UN set up programmes of deninjagoistification in order to prevent the Empire to emerge again. Ninjagoan culture, as it had been largely shaped by State Way of the Ninja during ShitCraft IV, was seen as being prone to creating racially structured systems along with worship of the emperor. While Dareth II of the Wu dynasty was emperor, he held no legislative power and served his post for mere symbolic and ceremonial purposes. The UN's media programs displayed the emperor as not being a diety, but rather an ordinary ShitCraftian. A ban on Ninjagoist symbols was enacted; the old Oni-dragon flag and symbol was forbidden despite having a long Imperial history prior to the Kareastikuru restoration, along with Imperial Ninjago war crys and songs. Although the national anthem, The Weekend Whip was kept.
The Liberal Democratic Party was the ruling party of CDM Ninjago headed by Prime Minister Postman. Leading Ninjagoan politicans, including Postman, joined the ultra-conservative far-right organization Ninjago Kaigi which largely called for a return to the policies enacted under Emperor Kareastikuru; the annexation of motto heya, ultra-nationalist indoctrination nationwide, scientific racism and nationalist isolationist foreign policy. The Ninjago Kaigi also called for the removal of the war-criminal law from the constitution. Following the resurgence of pro-Empire of Ninjago sentiments, Jay Walker returned to Ninjago. Walker joined the Liberal Democratic Party and the Ninjago Kaigi and declared that Ninjago needs to be liberated from the UN and re-establish its empire. Shortly after his return, Walker gained the Prime Minister position and began to lay claim to motto heya territory.
