Indonesian War

The **Indonesian War** was a war between Indonesia and a coalition of 11 nations, in what may possibly be the largest coalition of nations ever called against one nation. The war lasted for a day, between 17th and 18th of November.

It was unique in the strategy Indonesia took toward volunteers. Many people from many different nations volunteered following the Holland declaration of war. In response, Indonesia declared war on every nation that volunteered. This caused a Coalition to be formed, as many countries who had not wanted to get into the war were forced into it by Indonesia. This strategy failed miserably, as Indonesia could not possibly destroy all those countries before they were destroyed themselves. As a result, the war was simply a waiting game until the Indonesians capitulated.

The war took over a day due banning of Indonesian citizens and their absence on the server after the bans were lifted. The treaty of Amsterdam was signed on the following day, resulting the disbandment and annexation of Indonesia.

## Prelude

The roots of the coalition war exist in the Indonesian-Northern European War, as The UTNE was destroyed following a surprise merger and victory for the new union between Gods and Indonesia. The UTNE had allies who had promised protection in the event of a war started by Shamski, however the Dutch - the main figure in the alliance - were embroiled in a period of civil conflict and other members were not online. Help may have been able to arrive, however the Northern Europeans decided to fight head on without leaving time to rally more troops against an enemy that outnumbered them, deciding to "fight honourably" instead of logging off, spelling their own defeat. England was annexed by Indonesia, and the UTNE fled to New York.

Indonesia continued their aggressive policy following the victory, delivering ultimatums to France, as well as less concrete threats to other nations, and constantly raiding most nations in Europe. Everyone believed that Indonesia would attack again, but the question was where, and after the conclusion of their civil war, the The United Provinces decided to attack pre-emptively rather than let Indonesia pick their battles. As already stated, many people volunteered for Holland, and their countries were declared on in retaliation, leading to a very large coalition.

## Conflict

Following the declaration of war, the Indonesian players logged off and a period of waiting took place for around 3-4 hours, until Shamski joined and began griefing nations, The mainland of Indonesia was completely destroyed, however the Indonesians possessed a base in Wales consisting of some cobblestone cubes that the coalition forgot to destroy, not deeming it relevant enough to be a target. This meant that when Shamski was eventually stopped after being banned for illegally raiding Egypt, the coalition could not declare a victory. A siege of the remaining territories was undertaken, as the coalition waited for the Indonesian players to return and bring a final end to the war.

## Treaty of Amsterdam

The Treaty of Amsterdam was signed among the belligerents on 18th of November, the following day when the war started. Coalition's demands included disbandment and annexation of Indonesia, war reparations and banning former Indonesian citizens to settle in Asia, Europe, North and Central America.
