K.E.D

K.E.D, knights of El Dorado, was the result of a merge between GUMS, UER and The Black Sun.
== Origin ==
After The Resistance moved to North America's east coast there was a power vacuum in South america, GUMS as per agreed would get all of the land. Meanwhile UER after losing a war and many cities started discussion of a merge with GUMS. Also meanwhile The Black sun, in its african lands, saw the opportunity to take back South America in a sneaky manner, after getting confronted by GUMS' diplomat, Filip Craft jokingly offered a merge, one which The Black Sun unexpectedly took seriously.
== Life ==
As the merge happened members moved to south american cities, some TBS members still held onto their original cities, thus making KED a large empire, with cities in South America, Russia and a significant portion in subsaharan africa, for about 1-2 weeks the alliance existed in peace, joining the South american coalition, replacing GUMS' "seat", and securing an NAP with its american neighbours due to said coalition (writer note: im not sure its called a coalition, just think a council to simplify diplomacy). During this period the members built up, alliance politics of the 3 leaders were in effect but it was still suffering from the lack of a proper power structure.
== War with Aurora Mare ==
While KED was still organizing UER and GUMS' members still held a grudge against Aurora Mare, some even wanted a war to get revenge from their recent attack on UER, wich almost wiped the alliance (the war mentioned before, that led UER to join GUMS in the merge).
As a majority of the alliance wanted war the planning started by getting information on all the member's armies via a form, but due to the war not being unanimously agreed on, allegedly some members lied on their numbers, some in a manner to not be suspicious, and some more obviously, while others just completly ignored it.
As expected, UER members didnt carry much power due to recently losing a war, and a considerable amount of The Black Sun members had lost a lot of both attack and defense on a recent rivalry with Cascadia."wtf tbs literally has no defense what the fuck."-Filip, after reading the possibly fake stats of TBS members.
This was the detailed plan put in place, just an all out assault, first on border cities, followed by placing armies to keep Aurora mare from reestablishing it's borders, followed by takeovers of AM's high value cities. The plan was to get a peace deal to keep some of the occupied cities along the south of the fertile crescent on the mediterranean, essencially taking half of AM's alliance area, as you will see the war did not go as well as expected by the leaders.
The inicial phase was a success, althought happening essencially out of nowhere, without an agreed time of start, with all communication happening in a discord call (a smart anti spying move, but ignored the known fact that 90% of TBS members are mute). The attack, after making its way to the middle east, suddenly came to a halt, as defenses were stronger than expected and without proper intelligence on AM's numbers no one knew what to do, as the only attackers on call were already exausted within 1 hour, the attack restarted when some TBS members came to know the war was happening, hope was cut short as they realized the cavalry was as poorly prepared as them, and only some minor targets were hit, including some cities in Iraq and possible grounds for a counter attack in egypt. The only considerable advance was the fall of some cities followed by TBS member Bo joining in and smashing his way into Athens as he needed it for conqueror level and had a minor grudge with Athena, who then proceeded to get the city back, and essencially was a one man army against all of KED, and there the war stopped in a standstill, with AM's capital moved to a more defensible position in turkey after it being captured once.
The war took a turn for the worse when Sakura joined in due to it's policy of actually defending it's allies, and made it clear that it would only help AM retake it's cities. After some minor battles and 2 days of confusion and nothing happening the agreed peace was to restore the status quo, as AM proved itself as a force to be reckoned with, and KED leaving it's first war with a disastrous loss due to poor planning and cooperation.
