The First Solar War

== Summary ==
The First Solar War was a galactic war that lasted from 81 AP to 87 AP. It involved the two major superpowers of OMEGA Reality; the Blue Star Federation, and the Republic of Phoenix. Both an opposing force to each other. In a total war directly involving more than 50 billion personnel from more than 70 star systems, Both the Blue Star Federation and the Republic of Phoenix threw their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities behind the war effort, blurring the distinction between civilian and military resources. Large scale space battles played a major role in the conflict, with large fleet engagements and invasions seen multiple times during the war effort. The First Solar War was the deadliest conflict in humanoid history; it resulted in 28 to 35 billion fatalities, a majority being civilians. The exact number of deaths is still being counted to this day. Several billion humanoids died due to genocides, starvation, massacres, and disease at the hands of the Republic of Phoenix. After the war ended, The Blue Star Federation gave the Republic of Phoenix their original territories back, and war crimes trials were conducted against the original leaders and officers of the Republic of Phoenix.
The First Solar War began on 7 February 81 AP, when the Republic of Phoenix, under President Winter, invaded the Indigo Fowl System. The Blue Star Federation declared war on the Republic of Phoenix immediately on 28 September. From late 81 AP to early 83 AP, in a series of campaigns and invasions, the Republic of Phoenix conquered or controlled much of the northern star systems. Following the onset of campaigns in Kryner and Tau Ceti, and the fall of Stea in early 84 AP, the war continued primarily as the Blue Star Federation defended what remained of its central, southern, and northern star systems, as the Republic of Phoenix continued to pressure the Blue Star Federation, with large campaigns in the Lacaillia and Lacaillio systems, the Battle for Fralm, the Aquarii Standstill, and the Battle of Altair in 84 AP. On 12 June 85 AP, the Republic of Phoenix attempted to invade the inner core systems of the Blue Star Federation. This campaign, known as Operation Orchid, was a 4 month campaign in the attempt to take the capital world of Sol. The disastrous underestimation of the Blue Star Federation’s military capabilities during the battle of Mars, the battle of Oberon, and the Battle for Centauri allowed the Blue Star Federation to push back the Republic of Phoenix forces. 
By early 86 AP the Blue Star Federation was beginning to push back the Republic of Phoenix’s, and by 5 October 83 AP, the Blue Star Federation had gained control of most of its originally occupied star systems. On 12 November 86 AP Operation Hercules was begun, and the massive invasion campaigns against the Republic of Phoenix started; which pushed the forces of the Republic of Phoenix to its outer systems by 25 December 86 AP. Early 87 AP was the finishing blow for the Republic of Phoenix, the Invasion of Vega was a large wake-up call for the Republic of Phoenix, realizing the war was almost lost. The war was draining on the Republic of Phoenix as well, with food shortages in the outer systems, and rebellions beginning to form due to the mistreatment from the government. On 18 February 87 AP, the Blue Star Federation was preparing for Operation Progovora; the invasion of the heavily defended capitol system of New Phoenix. However, the invasion plan was halted until 20 August due to the infamous Iggsariff Rebellion, where loyalists seized control of Orbital Defense Station 5 (ODS-5), and bombarded the planet with hypersonic antimatter rounds. All 9.28 billion civilians and military personnel were killed when the station bombarded the planet of Surgaria. On 10 June A massive revolution was started, shortly followed by a coup which overthrew the government. The new government immediately agreed to the terms of the Blue Star Federation, under the signed Treaty of Surgaria and Organized Peace, ending the First Solar War.
