FMC Patriotic War

The FMC Patriotic War was a massive and revolutionary armed conflict between the New Rhodesian Republic(NRR), which later formed into the Federal Manufacturing Corporation (FMC), and Izakia (IZK) and the Communist State of the United Novoslav Confederation (CSUNC) as well as their many allies. It is considered within Izakia as the most important, and devastating war in its history.
== Declaration of War ==
The New Rhodesian Republic declared war on The Communist State of the United Novoslav Confederation, at the time Izakia's closest ally. Izakia sent an ultimatum on February 24, 2017 to stop the war against Izakia's ally. The New Rhodesian Republic also claimed the capital of TPR, which was also an ally of Izakia. The New Rhodesian Republic rejected the ultimatum, and Izakia declared war on the New Rhodesian Republic, with their ally FMC declaring war on IZK, itching for a war following raids against them on GGG and Paradigm Shift 
== Battles of the Dunes ==
Izakian forces immediately invaded the New Rhodesian Republic following the declaration of war. The New Rhodesian Republic would become a member of The Federal Manufacturing Corporation shortly after Izakia declared war, which gave Izakia's enemies a large pool of skilled engineers. The attempted attack on the Federal Manufacturing Corporation that was meant to catch them off guard resulted in the Battles of the Dunes. Izakian T-64's were sent to the front to engage FMC forces, only to be slaughtered. Izakia lost 37 tanks, while FMC did not lose a single armored vehicle. The Federal Manufacturing Corporation would claim that they destroyed 90% of Izakian armor during the Battles of the Dunes. 
== Izakian Wartime Industry ==
The biggest advantage Izakia had over The Federal Manufacturing Corporation was its large manpower pool. During 2017, Izakia had an active infantry force of 10-20 soldiers. These soldiers were to be put into the new Izakian Engineering Party, and be taught how to build tanks and other equipment desperately needed at the front lines. The result of this was Izakia's wartime industry reaching high production quotas, as Izakia would have 5-10 tanks made daily. These tanks would fight against FMC export tanks, and if they won, were immediately shipped to the front lines. Due to this rapid design and testing system, Izakia began to close the gap on the technological disparity between the Federal Manufacturing Corporation and Izakia. 
== Battle of the 11th ==
On March 11th, 2017, Izakia was able to record its first victory against The Federal Manufacturing Corporation. Although it was only a singular victory in a month of pure devastation, it was vital in keeping Izakian moral intact. From FMC's perspective this was a large and massive victory as they had only lost one MBT, and the fighting only ceased after the server had died. Neither side would concede defeat to the other. 
== The Phantom Regime Betrayal ==
Following the string of Izakian defeats against The Federal Manufacturing Corporation, The Phantom Regime (TPR) switched sides and joined The Federal Manufacturing Corporation against Izakia. The pushing point that caused TPR to switch sides was during a battle against FMC, when the owner of Paradigm Shift would wipe the dupes of Izakian and TPR forces after FMC accused them of dupe theft. This resulted in the leader of TPR being terrified of further attacks, and switched sides. Izakia promptly declared war on The Phantom Regime, adding to the chaos of the war. TPR forces now joined in as FMC auxillaries serving as infantry and using export FMC tanks. 
== First Battle of Cereal Box ==
On March 16, 2017, Izakian Second Generation MBT's were sent to Cereal Box to capture it from TPR and FMC forces. This battle resulted in a minor victory for Izakia, as it was able to destroy TPR's armored forces, which consisted of FMC exports. The result of this battle was TPR's tank fleet being wiped out, and Izakian engineers beginning to understand how to counter FMC forces. 
== Super Heavy Battle ==
Following the invasion of Cereal Box, Izakian forces continued their push and began to enter FMC territory. During this battle, FMC's exhausted forces could only muster two operatives to engage against the Izakian Army that was fresh off a victory against The Phantom Regime. To compensate, FMC deployed a super weapon: A 1,000 ton tank was used against Izakian forces to stunning and brutal effect, destroying dozens of Izakian tanks. This super heavy tank was largely unopposed before a New Germanian reinforcements were able to deploy their own 2000t Super-Mech, which was after a long and grueling duel managed to take out the kiloton tank, ending the battle as a decisive IZK victory
== Second Battle of Cereal Box ==
Another invasion into TPR held Cereal Box resulted in The Phantom Regime's collapse, and Izakian control of Cereal Box that would be uncontested until the First ISA War. This battle was largely different than prior battles being fought with large bunkers and few tanks in an attempt by TPR and FMC to slow the pace of battle against their numerically superior opponents.
== The Spring Halt ==
Following two months of devastating battles, the Izakian Central Committee decided to implement a foreign policy change. After three victories against FMC and its allies, Izakia called a halt to any offensive action against The Federal Manufacturing Corporation. Izakian wartime production stalled, while at the same time The Federal Manufacturing Corporation was suffering extreme infighting between its own forces. The abnormal circumstance of both groups halting their offensive movements simultaneously resulted in the entire war coming to a halt after two months of senseless carnage. Following The Second battle of Cereal Box, no major offensive battles were fought between Izakia and FMC until August, a six month halting of any major offensive actions. Small skirmishes took place on border servers like Cereal Box, but it was on a much smaller scale compared to the battles of February and March. 
== Defense of Slavetown and Eventual Peace ==
On August 12th, 2017, The Federal Manufacturing Corporation ended the Spring Halt, and launched a full scale invasion of Izakia's capital. Izakian Arjurn MBTs managed to inflict nearly even losses on FMC tanks, and engaged their forces in a massive battle and later a 1v1. The sheer mass of the Izakian presence over FMC troops led to a resounding and brutal victory, and the Arjurn managed to win in the 1v1. This battle would actually solidify Izakia-FMC relations with a peace deal being established soon after the battle, and Rebel Taxi and Ilya befriending each other. With the treaty ratified on August 13, 2017, Izakia's most intense war ended for good, allowing building techniques and technology to be traded between the two factions. The largest motive for this peace being the exhaustion of FMC forces, and an existential threat posed by a mysterious primordial clan entity dating back to the pre-2014 meta known simply as SPEAT, which possessed technology more advanced than even FMC. In an attempt to strengthen both forces, they now simply agreed to live and let live, with no further wars ever being fought between the two factions throughout their existence.
== This war was massive in scale, and will be updated as I find more screenshots and battle statistics. This page is from the Izakian viewpoint, so keep that in mind. As of now this page is more of a blueprint, ill add more information on specific battles and important dates later on. ==
