The Great Deepslate Deal Dispute

The Great Deepslate Deal Dispute was an incident which greatly altered future trade deals across the world. It was close to being the cause of the first great war. the dispute began with a seemingly standard transaction involving the exchange of 15 stacks of deepslate for 64 diamonds, with GCS as the purchaser and Iceion as the seller. GCS expected Iceion to provide a shulkerbox as per GCS company standards, but this was not a standard at Iceion. This led to GCS withholding the complete payment, which, upon discovery, prompted Iceion's higher-ups to retaliate by threatening to sabotage GCS-owned property. In defense, GCS deployed armed personnel to deter the aggressors, who eventually withdrew. A subsequent intimidating gunfire by the guards tragically resulted in the death of one of GCS's most esteemed horses, named Stable.
This incident ultimately necessitated the introduction of specific trade regulations aimed at averting similar future disputes. See the Laws of Trade Act
