African Cold War (2nd Cold War AFOW)

Part of: 2nd Cold War (Alternate Future)
The Ethiopia-South Africa proxy conflict, commonly known as the African Cold War, is a series of indirect conflict between Ethiopia and South Africa, the top superpowers of Africa. South Africa is a member of the NYSO and supported by the United States while China supports Ethiopia, China's most powerful ally in Africa. Ethiopia is China's most powerful ally in Africa, with Pakistan being the most, and Ethiopia itself being second. It began 3 years after the start of the Second Cold War. The African Cold War made Africa a strategic location.
== Background ==
South Africa and Ethiopia are both victors of World War III, but relations began to cut after a dispute over a dam between Egypt and Ethiopia. Egypt did really hold the construction of the dam with the help of South Africa, causing the construction to go up. This made Ethiopia really angry, and cut ties with South Africa. Then, the Ethiopia became the biggest economy in Africa, but just under 3 years, South Africa managed to surpass the Ethiopian economy, causing both countries to become rivals.
== Origins ==
After World War III, relations between the United States and Ethiopia began improving. The treaty of Helsinki was signed. After the treaty, the World Defence Pact disbanded, and the UWO charter was entered into force, giving birth to the United World Order, just months after the ratification of the UWO Charter.
