Battle at Saigon (SD8)

On SD8, a joint military force from the newly-allied nations of Bengal and Chakatai entered South Chinese territory, after a South Chinese expedition near the islands south of Bengal altered a sign placed by the Bengali Government. As a result, tensions greatly increased between the two states eventually reaching a height with a 64 diamond demand for compensation from the Bengali government, which the South China Company was unable to pay. 
In the wake of the tensions caused by the sign's alteration, several BP members closed their borders to non-members. These included South China, Great Liao, and Taiwan. This was to ensure that Bengal and Chakatai knew that they would be starting a conflict if they entered South Chinese territory, which they had threatened to do in response.
The ensuing battle occurred at Saigon, with South China having forces from at least 2 other BP members reinforcing their defense. The battle was a narrow Bengali-Chakatai victory, although terms of armistice were soon agreed upon by the nations of both alliances, including a return to the tense-yet-peaceful relationship between the two organizations.
