# **The Second Undead War**

Janurary 12th, 2022. The War declaration is signed

**The Second Undead War** (**The Second Skeleton War** or **The Second Undead Conflict**) major global(Minecraft) conflict that lasted from 2022 to December 24, 2023. The vast majority of the world's countries, including all the large great countries, fought as part of two opposing military alliances: the **Right-Knife Coalition** and the **Unities**. Many participating countries invested all available economic and industrial capabilities into this total war, blurring the distinction between civilian and military resources. Ground Combat played a major role, enabling the strategic bombing of population centers. The conflict would be dragged on until the final loss of the **Saint Imperium of Pyrorainia**.

The Main Countries that participated in the war would be **Prance**, **Pyrorainia**, The **Taiyang Dynasty**, and **Incindea**.

Millions of people died in the Undead War due to genocides, the POW(Prisoner-of-war) Camps, starvation and massacres. After the United powers, including **The Undead Confederation(Prance, Kilova, Valkyrie, Tunya, Fauxallie, Haupten-Serenity) Baisloma**, and the **Saint Imperium of Pyrorainia** were defeated, these countries were occupied**(Except for Haupten-Serenity)**.

The war's causes are debated, with factors like the rise of Imperialism in Prance, the Undead Confederation not being collapsed, or all of the acts passed by other countries.

From late 2022 to late 2023, **The Undead Confederation**, along with **Eastern Pyrorainian Empire**(Forming into the **Saint Imperium of Pyrorainia**), **Baisloma** , and other countries in a military alliance called the **Unities**(or United powers), conquered or controlled much of continental Maniae through campaigns and treaties. After campaigns in Tunya and the fall of Incindea in late 2023, the **Incindean Revolution**. the war primarily involved the Northern powers against the The Undead Confederation, with events like the war in the east. After the fall of the Undead Confederation, the war primarily circled around the Saint Imperium and Baisloma at war with the Taiyang Dynasty and Incindean Resistance.

## Beginning of War

### The Enclosement Proclamation

After the First Undead War, The Confederation's economy was low, having the country to print currency, instead only decreasing the value even more. With the threat of Prench regions declaring independence, the **Enclosement Proclamation**(June 22nd, 2022) was written stating,

*"Known to all persons within the regions of Prance, henceforth, the declaration of independence is hereby prohibited. The restoration and fortification of our economy and stability shall commence with unwavering determination, effective immediately."*

A lot of the population had felt a positive connection towards the Enclosement Proclamation, with a common phrase passed around the country saying, *"A man passes a law."* However, a lot of political figures felt a negative opinion towards the Proclamation. After around 3 weeks of the Enclosement Proclamation being put out, regional opinions began to be shown less. Many speculated that the Prench government had been secretly assassinating political figures of regions that had shown negative opinion to Enclosement Proclamation.

But that was not the case, instead it was actually from natural causes. However this would not stop other nations from theorizing that prance had been killing their own politicians.

Another factor from the Enclosement Proclamation was the economy slowly rebuilding itself. When some regions wanted to break off, they wanted to barely contribute to Prance's economy, leaving it to Prance to do most of the economical fixing. This led to shortage of Trade to other nations, creating more unnecessary tensions.

### **The Lumber Act of 2022**

On August 19th, **Sonnenaufgangsland** declared independence. With Sonnenaufgangsland declaring independence, they immediately began to ask for protection under the arms of Incindea. Incindea, disgusted with the new acts formed by Prance, the **Lumber Act of 2022** was put into place. On September 28th, Incindea began to boycott all trade from Incindea, Their main trade being lumber. After the Enclosement Proclamation made outside politicians questioning if the government was killing their own politicians, High tensions begun to grow. But Incindea thought wrong of stopping trade of lumber. Incindea failed to realize that lumber wasn't as important in Prance, and would instead actually help Prance by a lot.

Prance, not having to trade lumber, had lumber amounts build up. **HotCaprisun** noticing the opportunity, began to use lumber in all uses. Newer Cities were built, and factories would be built in high amounts. **Haupstadt** would be built on, and new technology improvements would be seen. Jobs and Labor were put onto civilians more, and the economy in Prance would quickly recover.

### **The Christmas Massacre**

October 8th, Terrorist attacks were in found in **Haupstadt**. One attack known as the "**Church-Killings of Haupstadt**". An unknown person had killed 9 people inside a church of Hauptstadt. Multiple signs on "Atheism" would be found all around the nearby area of the church. Believed to be from Sonnesnaufgangsland, Prance asked Sonnenaufgangsland if the attack was their militia. Sonnenaufgangsland denied, and stated that it was most likely from Incindea. HotCaprisun believed it to be Incindean Terroists from their Atheistic reasoning.

On December 21st, 4 days before Christmas, a large protest broke out in Aurora. Funded by Prance, armed rebels opened fire on the capital building of Aurora. 34 Casualties were counted, 9 of them dead and died later. The day was named **The Christmas Massacre**, and was said to be one of the main sparks of the Second Undead War. It was discovered to be Prench-funded due to most of the firearms being **Skeletts**, a military gun manufacture for Prance.

## The Start of the War

In a fateful escalation of tensions, the assault on Illumina marked a pivotal moment in the conflict as the Red Phoenix defiantly declared war on the Undead Army of the Confederation. Propelled by a potent cocktail of emotions, the Red Phoenix unleashed their forces, hurling the realm into the throes of a full-fledged military confrontation. The implications of this audacious move would soon reverberate throughout the political landscape, reshaping the course of the conflict.

Unbeknownst to the UATC, a calculated maneuver was underway. Seizing the element of surprise, the UATC mobilized a staggering force of 1,250 soldiers, marching them in a determined march across a crucial bridge towards the heart of the Eastern Raiders' main base. The significance of this audacious offensive cannot be overstated, for the outcome of this decisive battle had the potential to shift the balance of power in the region.

Unbeknownst to the UATC forces, the very bridge they traversed was meticulously rigged with explosives, a contingency plan devised by the Eastern Raiders in the event of their imminent defeat. The destructive power of these explosives loomed ominously, ready to unleash devastation and chaos should the Eastern Raiders find themselves on the brink of succumbing to the UATC's onslaught. The precarious nature of warfare was underscored by this perilous gamble, wherein the bridge served as a double-edged sword—a potential game-changer that could reshape the course of the battle in an instant.

However, fate would intervene with a twist of irony. In a tragic twist of events, the Eastern Raiders inadvertently stumbled upon the hidden explosive cache, triggering an unforeseen detonation that unleashed catastrophic consequences. The blast, intended to decimate the UATC forces, instead wreaked havoc among their own ranks, causing staggering casualties and leaving the UATC's ambitious offensive in disarray.

This unexpected turn of events fundamentally altered the trajectory of the battle. The Eastern Raiders, now bolstered by the timely intervention and support of the Red Phoenix, seized the advantage and launched a resolute counteroffensive against the faltering UATC. The tides had irrevocably turned, as the UATC, forced into a humiliating retreat, was compelled to regroup and reconsider their military strategy.

As the dust settled and the echoes of the battle subsided, the Red Phoenix and the Eastern Raiders found themselves cautiously reassessing the UATC's military prowess. With a newfound sense of confidence, they were emboldened to forge ahead, their thoughts focused less on the UATC's seemingly diminished might and more on consolidating their own forces and fortifying their positions. The UATC, having underestimated the resilience and resourcefulness of their adversaries, now faced the daunting task of regaining lost ground and reestablishing their standing in this ever-evolving conflict.

This momentous clash, fraught with high-stakes political implications, demonstrated the intricate dance of strategy, surprise, and unforeseen consequences that define the theater of war. The shifting dynamics of power and the delicate interplay between alliances and allegiances painted a vivid tableau, serving as a poignant reminder of the intricate tapestry of conflict, where one misstep can cascade into an irreversible series of events with far-reaching consequences. This left the Red Phoenix and the Eastern Raiders to think little of the UATC's new military.

## **The Battle of The Mist**

Nestled within the depths of the sprawling landscape lies the enigmatic domain known as **The Mist**—an ominous expanse of dense, dark forest shrouded in an impenetrable cloak of fog. Long regarded as **nature's impenetrable fortress**, this foreboding terrain was poised to become the backdrop for a pivotal and fiercely contested battle that would forever alter the course of the conflict.

Emboldened by their fervor and bolstered by the strength of their numbers, the Undead Army of the Confederacy (UATC), comprised of formidable figures such as **HotCaprisun**, **PackofWolfs**, **NeuralTomb**, and **Crocodile**, amassed an astonishing force of 5,000 soldiers to spearhead a daring offensive through the treacherous mists. Aware of the tactical advantage provided by the labyrinthine trenches and crater-riddled landscape, meticulously crafted to offer crucial cover and protection, the UATC embarked upon their audacious quest to breach the supposedly impenetrable realm of The Mist.

In the face of this formidable onslaught, the united forces of the Red Phoenix and the Eastern Raiders, marshaled under the command of resolute leaders such as **Outrunsneeze**, **Pyre**, and **Momento\_Mori**, stood defiantly to defend against the encroaching UATC assault. The UATC's industrial revolution, an era characterized by rapid technological advancements, bestowed upon them a significant edge in weaponry production. The heralded "**Skelette 98**," a cost-effective bolt-action rifle, became the backbone of their arsenal, empowering the Undead Soldiers with a formidable advantage on the battlefield.

Eager to outmaneuver their opponents, the Red Phoenix launched a daring flanking maneuver in a desperate bid to turn the tide of the battle. However, the inadequacies of their inferior military infrastructure and subpar training ultimately proved their downfall, as they found themselves ill-equipped to overcome the UATC's relentless onslaught. With their ranks steadily crumbling under the weight of the UATC's strategic brilliance, the Red Phoenix and the Eastern Raiders were forced to confront the harsh reality of their impending defeat.

In a breathtaking display of tactical prowess, the UATC masterfully executed a series of flanking maneuvers, decisively outmaneuvering their adversaries and asserting their dominance on the battlefield. Each faction sought to gain the upper hand through strategic flanking, yet the UATC's superior military acumen and unwavering determination rendered their opponents powerless to mount a formidable resistance. As the UATC pushed deeper into The Mist, their flanking maneuvers proved devastating, leaving the enemy forces in disarray and demoralized.

Recognizing the futility of their efforts and the overwhelming might of the UATC, the Red Phoenix and the Eastern Raiders conceded defeat, surrendering to the indomitable force that now loomed large over the tumultuous landscape. This stunning turn of events left all factions gripped by a palpable sense of trepidation, for the UATC's unrelenting triumph had sowed the seeds of fear and uncertainty in the hearts of their rivals.

The battle waged within The Mist epitomized the relentless pursuit of victory and the unforgiving nature of warfare. It underscored the critical role played by astute military strategies, technological advancements, and the psychological impact of overwhelming dominance. Amidst the ethereal shroud of fog, the UATC's resounding victory reverberated through the annals of history, etching their name in the annals of power and commanding the fear and respect of all who bore witness to their unyielding might.

## **Invasion of Gefroren Strip**

In the aftermath of the catastrophic encounter shrouded **The Mist**, the **Eastern Raiders**, cognizant of the urgent need to halt the inexorable advance of the **Undead Army** towards **Cherry Grove City**, formulate a daring strategy to outmaneuver their relentless adversary. Seeking to gain a strategic advantage, the Eastern Raiders embark on a flanking maneuver, maneuvering behind enemy lines with the intention of impeding the Undead Army's progress.

With resolute determination, the Eastern Raiders undertake a southern flanking operation, swiftly and decisively striking at the exposed flank of the Undead Army. Initially, their efforts prove fruitful as they penetrate deep into enemy territory, pressing forward with tenacity and unwavering resolve. However, their ambitious aspirations are curtailed by the harsh and unforgiving climate that befalls them.

The cruel embrace of the cold climate, impervious to the Eastern Raiders' ambitions, begins to exact its toll, hampering their further advance. Meanwhile, the Undead Army, having acclimated to the frigid conditions, capitalizes on their advantage, rapidly closing in on the Eastern Raiders' vulnerable position. Like a relentless predator, they seize the opportunity to encircle and subdue their retreating foes, forcing the Eastern Raiders to regroup and reassess their strategy.

In this arduous and politically charged theater of conflict, the clash between the Eastern Raiders and the Undead Army epitomizes the intricate interplay between adaptation, resourcefulness, and tactical finesse. It is a testament to the unforgiving nature of warfare, where even the slightest imbalance in preparedness and environmental acclimatization can tip the scales of power. The Eastern Raiders, driven by their indomitable spirit, must now regroup, recalibrate, and forge a new plan to counter the relentless onslaught of the Undead Army in their ongoing quest for supremacy.

## **Formation of Valkyrie**

In the aftermath of the momentous Battle of the Mist and The Invasion of Gefroren Strip wherein the tides of conflict swayed and the very destiny of Maniae hung precariously in the balance, a fresh-faced newcomer, by the name of **Sixpy**, serendipitously stumbled upon the maelstrom that engulfed the realm. Imbued with a sense of curiosity and a longing for comprehension, Sixpy meandered through the war-torn landscape, wherein he encountered a multitude of **Undead Soldiers**, guardians of the tumultuous times, who beseeched him with probing queries, seeking to discern his intentions and affiliations. Sensing the urgency and the need for discretion, Sixpy, ever the enigmatic figure, decided to retreat from their prying gaze, withdrawing from the frontline and adopting a posture of cautious observation. However, fate, it seemed, had other designs for Sixpy, for he soon found himself in the company of two esteemed individuals, PackOfWolfs and HotCaprisun, veterans of the conflict who recognized the potential within this fresh recruit. Driven by a shared vision and a collective desire for a transformative future, PackOfWolfs and HotCaprisun graciously extended their mentorship to Sixpy, embarking on an exhilarating odyssey that would usher in the inception of a new epoch—a democratic military force christened "**Valkyrie**."

Resplendent in its regalia, characterized by a dazzling array of diamond hues that adorned its moniker, Valkyrie symbolized a beacon of hope and progress, a formidable bastion of democratic ideals that sought to harness the strengths of its diverse constituents to steer the tide of conflict towards a more equitable and just resolution. Sixpy, embraced by this newfound fraternity, eagerly immersed himself in the arduous process of nurturing and refining Valkyrie, collaborating with like-minded individuals who shared his ardor for a better tomorrow.

Astutely cognizant of the intricate political landscape that unfolded before them, Sixpy deftly maneuvered his country, meager and beleaguered though it may have been, towards a symbiotic alliance with the indomitable Undead Army. While their contributions to the war effort may have seemed modest in scale, a confluence of factors rendered their aid invaluable—providing crucial support and succor to their stalwart comrades-in-arms, thereby fortifying the collective resistance against the encroaching forces of oppression.

Thus, amidst the tumultuous upheaval that pervaded the realm of Maniae, Sixpy, an unassuming yet determined individual, emerged as a transformative force—a linchpin in the delicate fabric of alliances and allegiances, seeking to reshape the course of history through the vanguard of Valkyrie, a beacon of democratic fortitude, and a testament to the indomitable spirit of those who dared to forge a better future in the crucible of conflict.

## **Economic Crash in the UATC**

During the interwar period, a significant economic transformation took hold as the Undead Army's currency factory, operated by the UATC, initiated a series of policies that would have far-reaching consequences. These measures inadvertently precipitated a dramatic decline in the undead economy, leading to a period of profound economic instability and upheaval. The repercussions of these decisions were felt not only in the realm of finance but also permeated the socio-political fabric of the undead society.

Traditionally, the currency exchange rate between the undead realm and the broader economic landscape was calibrated at a ratio of **1 Netherite** to **10 diamonds**. This exchange rate formed the bedrock of economic transactions, facilitating trade and ensuring the stability of financial dealings. However, with the advent of a newly implemented money-making factory, the dynamics of the undead economy underwent a seismic shift. This technological innovation, while intended to enhance productivity and bolster economic output, inadvertently resulted in a substantial decrease in the value of the undead currency.

The consequences of this devaluation were profound. In a stark departure from the established exchange rate, the worth of **1 Netherite** plummeted to a mere equivalence of **5 iron ingots**. Such a dramatic decline in the value of the undead currency unleashed a wave of inflation, exacerbating the economic challenges faced by the UATC and the undead population at large. The implications of this rampant inflationary environment were felt across all sectors of the economy, posing significant hurdles for consumers, businesses, and the military.

The UATC, grappling with the debilitating effects of inflation, found itself in a precarious position. Struggling to procure essential natural resources and economic goods necessary for the well-being of the populace, the company faced mounting difficulties in meeting the demands of the consumer market. The eroded purchasing power of the currency undermined the UATC's ability to acquire vital supplies and meet the needs of the undead society. This, in turn, engendered a sense of economic uncertainty and diminished confidence in the financial stability of the undead realm.

Moreover, the ramifications of the currency devaluation reverberated within the military establishment itself. With the cost of weaponry and military equipment soaring to exorbitant levels, the armed forces encountered significant hurdles in their quest to procure the necessary resources to safeguard the realm. The financial strain on the military's budgetary allocations severely constrained their ability to acquire advanced armaments and maintain a well-equipped fighting force, casting a shadow of uncertainty over the nation's defense capabilities.

This convergence of economic and political challenges posed an arduous test for the Undead Army, necessitating a recalibration of economic policies and a concerted effort to restore stability to the financial landscape. The repercussions of these economic decisions permeated every facet of undead society, leaving a lasting impact on the economic well-being of the populace and the military's capacity to safeguard the nation's interests.

## **Eastern Pyrorainian Empire**

The **Eastern Raiders** embarked on a comprehensive transformation, seeking to bolster their military might and consolidate their political standing. This transformative journey began with a symbolic name change, as they transitioned into the **Eastern Pyrorainian Empire**. This new name was carefully crafted to reflect the amalgamation of two significant countries, namely the Country of Fire and the Country of Rain, alongside other miscellaneous nations that contributed to their growing influence.

The concept of **Pyrorain** embodies the diverse strengths and attributes associated with the countries such as **The Country of Fire** and **The Country of Rain**, symbolizing both passion and resilience. This nuanced representation serves as a testament to the multifaceted nature of the Eastern Pyrorain Empire's identity, which draws upon a rich tapestry of cultural and political influences.

Furthermore, the Eastern Pyrorain Empire underwent a paradigm shift in terms of their governance structure. Transitioning from an **imperial communist** framework, they embraced a **Fascist Monarchy**, reflecting a departure from egalitarian principles and a consolidation of power under a centralized monarchy. This shift in political ideology signaled a strategic repositioning, emphasizing authority, hierarchy, and a more centralized decision-making process.

These political and ideological transformations within the Eastern Pyrorain Empire reflect the complexities of governance and power dynamics in Maniae. The strategic name change, coupled with the transition to a Fascist Monarchy, underscores the empire's aspirations for strength, stability, and centralized control. It represents a conscious effort to redefine their political identity and position themselves as a formidable force within the realm.

## **Siege of Cherry Grove**

Amidst the challenges of rampant inflation and the daunting task of providing sustenance to the Undead Soldiers, **Kilova** emerged as a beacon of hope, mass producing rations to bolster the morale of the military. This display of resourcefulness and dedication served as a testament to Kilova's unwavering commitment to supporting the war effort.

Following the triumphant **Battle of the Mist**, and **Gefroren Strip**, cracks began to appear within the **Red Phoenix** and the **Pyrorain Empire**, as signs of fear started to permeate their ranks. Seizing upon this opportunity, the Eastern Pyrorain Empire contemplated a pivotal move, seeking to switch sides and forge an alliance with the **Undead Army of the Confederacy**. It was in this critical moment that HotCaprisun, representing the Undead Army, engaged in dialogue with Outrunsneeze, saying the exact words, "I accept your offer, and I definitely won't not refrain from betraying you sometime in the future".

With the stage set for a decisive showdown, the **siege of Cherry Grove** commenced on the appointed date and time, triggering a flurry of action, chaos, and political intrigue. The air reverberated with the shrill sound of the trench whistle, signifying the commencement of the assault. The Undead Army, armed with their newest weaponry including **Anti-Material Rounds** and the **LHMG64**, caught the Red Phoenix off guard, swiftly pushing them out of Cherry Grove. Mortars rained down upon the city, unleashing pandemonium among both civilians and soldiers alike.

As the Pyrorain Empire launched their attack from the west, the Undead Army encircled the city, closing in with remarkable speed and precision. The relentless advance left the Red Phoenix soldiers greatly outnumbered and isolated. In a desperate attempt to quell the invaders, the city was enveloped in a cloud of **Mustard Gas**, further exacerbating the already dire situation.

The Battle of Cherry Grove raged on for an intense one hour and twenty-three minutes, culminating in the ultimate surrender of the Red Phoenix forces. The UATC rejoiced in yet another hard-fought victory. However, the elation proved short-lived, as while the Pyrorain Empire celebrates, the fear of being betrayed doesn't bother them at all.

This gripping tale of political maneuvering, military prowess, and unexpected turns of allegiance stands as a testament to the ever-shifting nature of conflict. The Battle of Cherry Grove serves as a vivid reminder that even amidst victory, the fragile bonds of alliances and the specter of betrayal can swiftly reshape the course of events, leaving an indelible mark on the intricate tapestry of political intrigue.

Red Phoenix had fallen.

## The Invasion of Castle Ostlich

On the date of 7/15/2023, a momentous event unfolded after the grueling siege of **Cherry Grove**. A formidable force of 7,000 Undead Soldiers embarked on a march across the Bridge of **Elsenwand**, bypassing the **Pyrorain Empire** and boldly pushing through the border. As this audacious maneuver became apparent to the Pyrorain Empire, preparations for a potential invasion were set into motion. Hindered by a lackluster military and outdated soldiers, the empire found itself heavily reliant on strategic acumen to compensate for their shortcomings. Their forces appeared woefully ill-equipped, with stale rifles such as the **Overwatch DMR7**, a relic of the Red Phoenix Battle Rifle, being their mainstay.

To the astonishment of the Undead Army of the Confederation, Outrunsneeze exuded unwavering confidence in his soldiers' ability to successfully defend the castle. With the odds stacked against them, the Eastern Pyrorain Empire found themselves unable to mount a substantial resistance and could only bear witness as the Undead Infantry ruthlessly tore through the castle's defenses.

In a swift and decisive turn of events, the Pyrorain Empire, recognizing the futility of further resistance, chose to surrender. The once-proud castle now lay in ruins, serving as a haunting testament to the power and determination of the Undead Army. This dramatic episode stands as a vivid reminder of the relentless nature of political conflicts, wherein even the most fortified strongholds can crumble before the might of a resolute force.

## The **"**End" of the 2nd Undead War.

In the aftermath of the 2nd Undead War, the Undead Army of the Confederacy emerged triumphant, leaving the once-mighty Red Phoenix and the Pyrorain Empire in a state of utter disarray. The Red Phoenix, battered and defeated, could only retain control over the Eastern Side of their dominion, while Prance, though losing the northern region above Red Phoenix, stubbornly clung to the area despite lacking an official alliance with the territory.

The Mist, a strategic stronghold, would be relinquished to Kilova, further bolstering their influence and territorial control. Meanwhile, the Eastern Pyrorain Empire suffered a significant blow as it was split in half, losing both the north and Sunset City, resulting in the forfeiture of the esteemed Country of Rain. The Aurorian Mountains, once a symbol of independence and strength, became the Capital of Red Phoenix, though being split in half.

A defining feature of the newly redrawn borders was the imposing Wall constructed by the Undead Army of the Confederacy, aptly named "**Aurora's Shaded Curtain.**" This barrier acted as a physical manifestation of the power dynamics at play, serving as a symbolic division between the North Side of Aurora, forever altered by the shifting tides of political upheaval.

The geopolitical landscape had irrevocably transformed in the wake of the war, with alliances shattered, territories reconfigured, and power dynamics fundamentally reshaped. The aftermath of this conflict would shape the future of the region, as nations grappled with the challenges of rebuilding, forging new alliances, and navigating the delicate balance of power in this turbulent era.

However, due these circumstances the 2nd Undead War was never officially ended with a signed treaty, and instead with only war reparations. A fake treaty was quickly to produce before Prance would make another move to attack the two weak nations.

To make the treaty believable, Prance would give up all occupied areas, and let **Incindea** capture it's taken land. This false treaty was to hopefully repair and fix up damages amongst their own army.

## **The Fake Treaty of Désarmer and War Reparations**

Prance issued a treaty to the Red Phoenix, imposing stringent conditions that left the once-proud nation disarmed and vulnerable. The terms of the treaty dictated the cessation of military activity for a duration of three weeks, effectively rendering the Red Phoenix devoid of any infantry forces. This calculated disarmament aimed to weaken the Red Phoenix's military capacity and ensure compliance with Prance's demands.

The territorial landscape underwent a significant transformation as a result of the treaty. **Half of Aurora**, a once-autonomous region, would be relegated to the status of a independent state, effectively curtailing its sovereignty. The other half of Aurora would be absorbed into the expanding dominion of Prance, further solidifying its influence and control over the region. The repercussions of this annexation extended beyond territorial boundaries, as Prance also declared Pyre's signature weapon, **the Invictus**, illegal, effectively silencing a symbol of resistance and power.

In a show of dominance, Prance proceeded to annex all cities within its reach, with the exception of half of Aurora and the Sunset City. The annexed territories would be subject to Prance's authority and governance, their resources and inhabitants falling under its control. Moreover, the flow of goods and commerce would be subject to taxation by not only **Prance** but also **Kilova** and **Valkyrie**, further consolidating their economic influence.

However, amidst these political maneuvers, Sunset City emerged as an anomaly. It would not succumb to complete assimilation into Prance's dominion, instead assuming the unique status of an independent state. This granted Sunset City a degree of autonomy and a distinct place in the political landscape, separate from the expansive reach of Prance's authority.

The whole idea was to plan another invasion to **Incindea** to Annex the full country and resources when the Red Phoenix were at their lowest.

### **Aurora's Shaded Curtain**

In the intricate web of political maneuverings, the division of Aurora emerged as a focal point for competing interests. The Red Phoenix, determined to maintain some semblance of control and a clear demarcation of their territory, advocated for a simple line within the wall to serve as the border with Prance. However, Caprisun, driven by a more assertive approach, proposed the construction of an imposing wall spanning both the northern and southern sectors of Aurora, effectively fortifying the region and ensuring vigilant monitoring to prevent any unauthorized border crossings.

The UATC assumed the responsibility of monitoring the southern portion of Aurora, effectively sealing it off to prevent the escape of their own citizens towards the northern sector. Simultaneously, they kept a watchful eye on the northern part of Aurora to intercept any attempts at smuggling people or illicit trades.

The construction of the **Shaded Curtain**, as the wall came to be known, was a monumental undertaking. It stood as a formidable barrier, stretching four blocks in thickness and towering at a height of twelve blocks. Undead Soldiers patrolled the wall-walks, ensuring its integrity and deterring any potential breaches. Strategic design considerations included small openings along the wall's side, providing cover and firing positions for the vigilant soldiers.

To further fortify the defenses, mines were meticulously placed around the perimeter of the wall. These explosive devices served as a deterrent, dissuading citizens from approaching the wall and reinforcing the notion that any interaction with it would come at a grave cost.

This architectural marvel symbolized not only the physical division of Aurora but also the ideological and political divisions that had emerged. It stood as a testament to the rising tensions, the desire for control, and the determination to assert dominance. The Shaded Curtain became an enduring symbol of the complex power dynamics and the measures taken to safeguard the interests of the Red Phoenix and the UATC.

### Riots

Inside of Aurora's turmoil, a series of riots erupted, initially surfacing in the northern region before falling south. These powerful demonstrations were fueled by a fervent demand for freedom of speech and the cessation of confinement policies. As the tensions escalated, the once-peaceful streets transformed into battlegrounds, shrouded in chaos and sorrow.

The impassioned voices of protesters echoed throughout Aurora Outpost, challenging the oppressive constraints that had stifled the populace for far too long. Citizens, driven by a thirst for justice and liberty, took to the streets with unwavering determination, seeking to shatter the shackles of oppression and embrace the promise of an unbridled expression of ideas.

Tragically, these noble quests for change resulted in a heart-wrenching toll of lives lost. The riots escalated into violent clashes, where the dreams of a free and open society collided with the harsh realities of confrontation. The once-thriving community of Aurora Outpost became engulfed in sorrow and grief, as families mourned the loss of loved ones and the city's spirit seemed to wither in the face of adversity.

## Failed Invasion of Prance

Red Phoenix would begin to falter and lose a lot of its motivation and control, ultimately resulting in the loss of the Invictus. The Red Phoenix would demand another copy before being denied by the Undead Confederation. In the heat of anger, the Red Phoenix would threaten the UATC, saying that they would "bomb" and "nuke" their capital, **Hauptstadt**. Even though Prance had a more advanced atomic bomb, it was only a matter of time before one side made a move.

The Red Phoenix would begin to march from the south side of Kilova and the west side of Mount Basalt in a small river. Wolfs would spot them and fire an artillery attack before being met around the depressed river by multiple soldiers. The Red Phoenix would be stopped and caught with multiple pounds of TNT.

The Red Phoenix would suffer a hard fail but would be eased by a small treaty of no change but a small tax.

## **The Motionless War**

After the false treaty, it had gone completely unnoticed by all countries, including Kilova. This main reason was to make sure no country had any information about the pause in the war. Wolfs would want to change ideologies after the "End" of the 2nd Undead War. Caprisun, was eager to tell wolfs about the fake plan but he knew that the fake treaty would go completely under the radar and be ignored, the Only way to admit was to openly announce the false treaty before planning a large-scale invasion to Incindea.

With the Aurora Curtain Made, Wolfs Was itching to change ideologies to take full control of Aurora. While Caprisun denied, Wolfs became independent, and would lead the Confederation towards a failed plan of stopping the motionless war.

The Motionless war was the period at the beginning of the 2nd Undead War between July 13th and August 1st when there was little fighting.

However, this would not regard the Undead Confederacy's Civil War that happened inside the nation.

## **Tunya**

On 7/29/2023, **Tunya** stood as a lone country before joining the UATC to aid and fund the struggling themselves. At that time, The **Pyrorainian Empire** had taken control of the Jungle, a main source of the country's economy. With the loss of the main supplier of natural resources, a significant part of Tunya seceded to become an independent state known as "**Vegeland**."

As a consequence, Tunya not only lost its primary area for natural resources but also its harbor towards the Southern Sea. Their waterway for trading goods is now a small river located south of Tunya, which leads out of eastern Vegeland.

With Tunya in a dire state, most countries it used to trade with severed ties, primarily **Muġen**. Muġen heavily relied on Tunya and Kilova's oil resources, as it required vast amounts of oil to fuel the large state. However, with Kilova suffering from the Sepratist Campaign, Tunya remained the sole oil producer. Since **Muġen, Tunya, Terradepaz,** and **Vegeland** did not participate in the Undead Wars, they had nothing to pay in reparations. Nevertheless, with trading, Tunya would fall into serious debt, almost leading to the destruction of their own country.

## **Independent State of Vegeland War for Tunya. (Vegeland War)**

**Tunya** declared war on **Vegeland** after being denied multiple times, seeking to make Vegeland lose its independence. The war lasted a very short time, approximately 2 days. Tunya and Vegeland engaged in a back-and-forth conflict, but neither side continued the fighting due to their limited military funding. Both countries had very little resources for their military. The war is relatively unknown, but it is estimated that around 1200 casualties resulted from the conflict.

## **Tunya Joins the Undead Confederation**

With only one option, Tunya would ask to join the **Undead Confederation**, in which they would be accepted. Refusing to fight at all, the Undead Confederation would demand only a small price of more **oil factories**, in which the UATC would pay Tunya for any debt and production.

Instantly, Tunya would gain a trust bond with the Undead Confederation with Desperation since they had almost lost control of their own country. Tunya would immediately begin fast contraction on oil mine in their area. With Tunya dominating over **Kilova** from oil production, even if Kilova hadn't lost their factories. Tunya would have their thriving country after almost losing themselves into multiple states.

## **Continuing the 2nd Undead War**

### **The Skirmish over Aurora**

On 7/24/23, the Undead Confederacy, Kilova, and The Pyrorainian Empire would attack Aurora from the West side of the Mountain. The Undead Confederation and The **Pyrorainian Empire** would begin the attack with a trick, sending in planes from the south to deceive the Red Phoenix that the invading team would come from the south, as in the two previous battles in the first Undead War. Instead, the Pyrorain Empire and the UATC would attack from the west, splitting the Red Phoenix line in half.

The Pyrorain Empire would engage the separated forces that were headed to the south side of the mountain, while the UATC would push the Red Phoenix back. The Undead Separatists would attempt to flank the UATC, but there would be no chance of winning the attack. The Red Phoenix would fall due to the Undead Confederacy's new weapon, The Heimgesucht 98k Firefly, an expensive rifle that used specific incendiary rounds and could one-shot a player even when using an Enchanted Golden Apple.

The Undead Confederacy would immediately begin production after the attack on their new program, "Q.O.Q" or "Quality over Quantity" Program. The Undead Confederacy would be known to produce Expensive and Beautiful Weapons.

Most people question whether the fake idea of surrender by the UATC was a dense idea given by Caprisun, however it was rather smart. To summarize, Caprisun wanted to surrender and "give up all occupation" back and also be a "fair" war. This was to make the allies believe that Prance would give a fair war, in which would make the treaty terms "less harsh". This was to also make the treaty meeting face to face more professional. While planning the treaty, Caprisun put factories of new weapons and new technology into max speed, and once the Treaty at Aurora began, the ambush would begin, with their new weapons that was put into hyperdrive, the Firefly into better hands.

## Serenity

On the west side of Prance, a large peninsula was given to **Kenneth**. He would become a now full democratic country. He would become a now independent country in which he would sign two non-aggression pacts, 1 for the now forming, **Taiyang Dynasty**, the other of the Undead Confederacy. On 7/30/23, the formation of Serenity would begin.

Mainly being an agriculture country, Serenity would mainly be Prance's bonemeal producer. Serenity would also make a lot of wheat, in which **HodgeBread** is most known for being produced at the capital of Serenity, **Hodge**. The most known part about Hodge is its extremely tall bonemeal tower, which extends to be roughly 200 blocks tall.

### Colonization

Serenity would attempt to colonize small islands around, like a few mushroom islands located south of serenity. The member, Vincent (Not the Vincent from Pyrorain Empire) would help lead multiple attacks and invasions on the small islands. This would be known as the Mooshroom War.

### Mooshroom War

The war was lead by General Kenneth, in which he would attack multiple tribes of the **Mooshroom Islands**. Against Natives, the Serenian infantry would use their cheap **Arquebus** against the tribes. General Kenneth would be most known for getting shot by 3 arrows, but bravely continued to fight. Serenity would later conquer the islands.

The country would stand independent, until prance took it as a puppet state.

## The Tàiyáng Dynasty

The Countries, **Mugen** and **Terredepaz** would form into the **Taiyang dynasty**, which would eventually become the largest country for a while. The two nations brought a strong military and showed fear amongst the Undead Confederation due to allying with the Right Knife Coalition. The **Undead Confederacy** would try it's best to not get the Dynasty involved with the conflict, however it was inevitable that the Taiyang Dynasty would help it's allies.

The Taiyang Dynasty would be lead by the **Pyre**, the Prime minister of Incindea, or now the Emperor of the Taiyang Dynasty.

## Invasion of Castle Ostlich

### Construction of Ralph Reach.

On 7/12/23, before Serenity's and the Taiyang Dynasty's formation, the construction of **Ralph Reach** would begin. In fear that the **Red Phoenix** was going to push an offensive of the southern beaches of **Pyro-Rania**, the Undead Confederacy had funded the Pyrorain Empire to construct multiple defenses along the beaches. This was a strong defense to protect **Castle Ostlich** and Caroline, the capital of Pyrorania.

### **The Battle of Caroline**

On 8/27/23, Taiyang Troops landed on Ralph Ridge for a surprise attack. The Battle of Caroline (aka, The Invasion of Castle Ostlich) ensued, lasting 2 hours, resulting in a Taiyang Dynasty victory. The battle featured the use of new weapons like the Arquebus by the Undead Army and the Taiyangs' Dissonance Cannon. The invaders faced resistance at wooden palisades, but the Taiyang infantry prevailed over time. HotCaprisun ordered a withdrawal to a nearby hill, launching artillery attacks that caused significant casualties among the invaders. Some attribute the defense failure to a lack of conviction among senior commanders.

After the withdrawal, Taiyang soldiers entered Caroline, facing a flank led by Caprisun. The infantry eventually pushed into Castle Ostlich, encountering heavy bombardments. The castle walls were breached, leading to damage and a shift in the soldiers' morale. At 6:43, a white flag was raised, surrendering the attack to the Taiyang dynasty, which occupied the area.

The Battle of the 15 Nights in Kanyegrad Forest occurred three days later. Outrunsneeze surrendered, but Pyrorainian soldiers continued resisting the Taiyang Dynasty. The battle, lasting 15 days, featured ambushes by Pyrorainians in the dense forest, causing high casualties among the Taiyang Soldiers. Despite fierce resistance, the Taiyang Dynasty ultimately won, taking control of Pyro-Rania. The nighttime ambushes in the forest played a crucial role in the Pyrorainians' attempts to resist the invasion.

## Pyrorainian Colonization

Trying to conquer land, the Pyrorainian Empire would go on a spree of conquering multiple uncolonized land around the world. One of the most important colonized islands, in the south, an island would become a vital part of the country. Having all biomes inside of one island, this island would be a perfect spot for civilization.

After the recent loss of the country, **Outrunsneeze** was more dedicated to expand his ideologies across seas.

After Outrunsneeze's voyage, Prance and Kilova established colonies in the New World, However, the lack of precious metals discouraged permanent settlement in the new world.

**Crocodile** sponsored an expedition to Palm Island in 2023, which became the first permanent Kilovian colony in 'The New World.' However, it would fail in which multiple colonists disappeared.

There are various theories about what happened to the Kilovian colonists, with the most popular one being that they left to find a new settlement in the unknown region, while some may have integrated with Amakhosi tribes in the area.

Despite early failures, Pyrorainia remained interested in colonizing 'The New World' for economic and military reasons.

## **September 7th - Winter comes - Battle of Koyuk**

### **Maniae's Worst Winter**

During the beginning of September, the worst winter on the server would arrive. Constant rain and Snow would drown the server in freezing temperatures and slow food-production. Especially for cold countries, specifically **Prance**, a frozen country. Due to frozen temperatures and constant snow, factories and production companies would have a hard time producing economic and militaristic goods out to the Country. Farms would slow, and food was at a all time low.

Wood factories and shipping-trade would also be extremely slow, with railroads being constantly jammed, and off-shore trading having ice being a problem in oceans and rivers. The strength of the UATC would be weaken, with not only low-quality rifles, but also loss of morale from the intimidating Taiyang Dynasty, and the loss of Pyrorania.

### **Battle of Koyuk**

On September 6th, Taiyang Troops would invade the south-east of **Valkyrie**, in which Valkyrie would give little-to-no defense into protecting their country from Taiyang Troops. Understanding the risk of Valkyrie being taken, Prance sends Undead Squadrons to defend the very last bit of the country, which would be on the west side of the country in a long forest strip along a Mountain. The small town of Koyuk would be the main last important part of Valkyrie. 250 Undead Soldiers would be sent to the north side of the town to defend the Invading soldiers. 20-25 soldiers would die however, due to low supply of food, and-or disease.

September 7th, The remaining undead soldiers would guard the town, knowing an attack would be inevitable. 8:00 the 23rd Infantry regiment battalion would be sent out south-west of the city, into the forest to check. The entire battalion would be wiped out in a matter of 6 minutes by Taiyang soldiers. A few minutes later, 520 Taiyang soldiers arrive from atop the Hill and in the frozen forest and attack the undead infantry. The battle lasted 30 minutes with a Taiyang Victory as a result.

## Serenity Tensions and War

Tensions between Prance and Serenity grew. The Pyrorain empire and Prance demanded tons of bonemeal. Prance being for factories, Pyrorainia being other farms in 'The New World'. Serenity could not produce a lot of bonemeal due to errors in the processing. Serenity was slowly loosing their ties with Prance.

Prance was going to plan a coup against Serenity; In which Caprisun was going to gather officials and Wolfs to overthrow Serenity's government. However, at the time, the officials were busy and Wolfs was currently leading defenses in Incindea.

9/23/23 On a extremely foggy and cloudy day, Outrunsneeze would arrive at Prance where him and Caprisun would gather a large army on the beach of Prance. Sneeze and Caprisun with a few other soldiers would travel alone to the beaches of Serenity, (Specifically Hodges) in which the tensions would be high. Caprisun would damage a seize of the bonemeal factory in which a large confrontation would build up.

Large arguments would build up in which a shot would occur. A soldier had shot one of the important governors in the shoulder, killing him. Immediately, Taiyang Soldiers would arrive from the tree-line, in which they would open fire on the small group of government officials. After their retreat, a hard rain had arrived.

After around 4 minutes, multiple boats would arrive on the beaches of Hodges, the Pranco-Serenitian War would begin.

### Pranco-Serenitian War

The Battle of Hodge would last about 30 minutes, with a quick Prench-victory. It should be noted that most people believe that the War was fought between Serenity and the Undead Confederation, however it was actually Prance itself that fought.

Serenity would defend off the first wave of infantry. Outrunsneeze would try to flank around Hodge, but was unsuccessful. Caprisun would bring out Artillery Rafts, in which 12 minutes into the invasion, would yell, "Haubitzen!". Fifteen Artillery cannons would open fire on the town, striking Pyre in the process.

The Battle Ended, in which Serenity gave a good chase from Prance, however would be blocked my the Pyrorainian Empire would defeat Serenity. Kenneth would leave the politics, in which vincent would take control of Serenity before shortly being overthrown by Wolfs. The War would be the shortest war of Maniae, being only 1 hour long. The war would lead to the change of Serenity. Prance would take over serenity and officially declare Serenity as a puppet state.

## **The Formation of the Saint Imperium of Pyrorainia**

The Eastern Pyrorain Empire would form into a Catholic empire. The **Saint Imperium** was a series of religious beliefs in which Outrunsneeze would spread Christianity all around the server. The best known of these military expeditions are those to that were intended to conquer Aurora and its surrounding belief from Atheistic rule. Beginning with the Empire, Outrunsneeze would lead multiple campaigns of spreading as much Christianity as possible.

#### **Beginning**

On 10/25/23, The formation started after the Taiyang Dynasty had invaded Pyrorainia and captured the country. With the country(Pyrorainia) Under control of the Taiyang Dynasty, different races and religious beliefs were now being attempted to spread throughout the country, forced by the **Constellation of Power** from the Taiyang Dynasty. Atheism forced on Pyrorainian citizens would begin to create civil unarrest inside the country.

During the colonization of "The New World" Multiple land settlements had opened up for other Pyrorainians to migrate to. This meant the the Pyrorainian Government wasn't fully gone. With the government seeing more violence inside of the mainland from religious differences, Outrunsneeze began formation of the Saint Imperium.

The Main goal was to remove all atheistic control out of Pyrorainia, and replace it fully with Christianity.

**Amakhosi Kingdom's Reaction**

The new world turned out to be already owned. A few weeks after discovering the New World, small groups of colonizers and citizens were being killed, most of which had their items still floating, meaning a fresh death. It was discovered that nearby unrecognized tribes later discovered as the Amakhosi had originally owned the land and were in fear of colonization, would ultimately go to war with the empire, in which the Pyrorainian-Amakhosi War would begin and end.

## **The Battle of St. Hartford**

The **Battle of St. Hartford** would be known as the "Last successful Undead Battle". Being the last successful battle for the Undead Confederacy, the battle began on 11/4/23. With most Undead forces being a home guard, the main forces in the battle were **Undead Militia**, being less-skilled than their related forces, would still be able to find a successful win during the battle.

### The Attack

    On the morning of November 4th, HotCaprisun would travel across the Pyrorainia, and would eventually reach towards the mist. Approaching above a nearby hill in the mist near the birch forest of **St. Hartford**, the 501st Riflemen Militia would open fire onto clueless Taiyang and Marauder infantry killing 57 soldiers. Immediately, a quick plan given **Pyre** would be to flank around the 501st Militia. While traveling up the hill, multiple trained calvary would sweep the 413th regiment of the Marauders. After 3 hours of close combat woodland warfare, Most of the nearby birch trees would have been burnt or destroyed.

### Strategy "Mass Destruction"

After the 3 hour period, of a destructive back-and-forth fighting, the Undead Militia had used their recent new iron cannons and would heavily bombard the trees, leaving a lot of burnt and broken trees flooding the battlefield. After an estimated count 2,537 Marauder and Taiyang Deaths, the two allied countries would retreat their forces, giving the the battle of St. Hartford the last Undead Victory. All though the Taiyang and Marauder Soldiers would attempt to retreat, they would soon be met with another battle against the **Pyrorainians**.

## **Battle of Darchen Creek**

After the Battle of **St. Hartford**, The Taiyang and Maruader Infantry retreated North-West from St. Hartford. However, Once they crossed **Hartford's** **Creek**, they arrived onto the **Darchen** Bridge, Located on Darchen Creek; In which 200(Estimated) **Pyrorainian** Calvary had waited. Multiple officers, calvary and mostly infantry had sat accross the creek, hidden behind the thick foliage of trees. Traveling up-north across the bridge, a large-steep hill had sat, where most of the Infantry had waited.

The Pyrorainian's plan was to keep retreating until all the split groups of Taiyang and Marauder forces had regrouped. In which they would at Darchen Bridge. When half of the Taiyang and Marauder Infantry had traveled accross the bridge, multiple officers would demand a firing volley, ultimately leading to 15 Pyrorainian Infantry would peak over from the trees and opened fire on the vulnerable forces.

As the battle once began, the Prench Militia were retreating towards back to Prance, while the Pyrorainians were keeping them occupied. The Pyrorainians would began to make there way down hill, in order to get into close combat on the creek. The Pyrorainian **354th battalion** would get into close combat fighting, while the infantry on the hill, the **255th battalion** would open fire onto the occupied Taiyang Forces. However the Marauder's would attempt to retreat, but would instead be met being cornered by Pyrorainian Calvary, which were currently heading towards **Darchen** Creek. As hundreds of Taiyang and Marauder forces would be defeated, around 20 Were left, being a collection of officers, a couple of generals, and a few infantry of both Taiyang and Marauder groups.

Today, the battlefield had been turned into a regular field, with some destroyed trees still found from the battle. Rose-bush gardens had been built after the battle to symbolize peace. The bridge still stands and the only known structures left from the battle are a collection of very few trenches in the forest-hill.

## **The Battle of the Frozen-Fog**

After the shortlived "Northern-Campaign." (St. Hartford, Darchen Creek.) The Taiyang Dynasty began to focus most of their offense on the border of Valkyrie and Prance, With Taiyang and Incindean Infantry pushing onto the frozen beaches of Prance. The Taiyang Dynasty however were pushing extremely slow, due to the harsh winters at the time. On the river

### **The Battle**

On 11/26/23, 11:00 Taiyang and Incindean Forces landed on a fortified river bay in Prance. Accross **Gefroren Strip**, Heavy bombardments from forts above Prench Trenches would flood the Taiyang and Incindean forces with exhaustion and Anxiety, making the attacking forces feel less confident in their attack. A lot of trenches would carve the ground in the snow, giving Prench forces to be heavily prepared and entrenched. Light and Regular field guns would stop most opposing infantry, with Prench Infantry killing any other Forces.

at 11:45 am, during light combat, a thick and heavy snowstorm came in, dropping temperatures and visibility. A extremely thick fog came in, which gave the attacking forces an opportunity to flank, however, Undead Calvary would be guarding all sides of the area, including a large, steep hill that stood behind the trench.

A new prench weapon would be first used in this battle, being the Heavy Field Gun. Being around 26x7 blocks long, the heavy field gun would leave a crater with the radius of 13x13(estimate) blocks. Only one Heavy field gun would be deployed, being in the main, fort in the trench.

The 323rd Red-Corps were a professionally trained **Incindean** group that had saw action in the battle. Making their way onto the battlefield, they would open attack the trenches from both sides, almost bypassing the calvary. Managing to survive the battle, they had an estimate of 163 Kills in total. Incindean infantry would mostly take cover in crumbled trenches from artillery bombardments, and would be said to be to ultimate success of the battle.

On the same day, at 3:53 AM, The Prench Generals would surrender, giving a victory to the Incindeans and Taiyang Forces. Today the battlefield is still torn up, with crater impacts still indented into the ground.

## **The Battle of Haupstadt**

The **Battle of Haupstadt**, also known as the Fall of Haupstadt, marked the climactic end of the Second Undead War. Lasting 3 1/2 hours, the conflict involved relentless bombardments and urban warfare within Prance's capital city. Following the Battle of the Frozen-Fog, Incindea underwent a rapid revolution, transforming into New Incindea with Alimator as its new leader.

The battle commenced on December 21, 2023, at 11:20 am Est, as New Incindean forces gathered outside Haupstadt. In preparation, Prench Forces fortified the city while Pyrorainian reinforcements were en route. The engagement quickly devolved into intense urban warfare, hampered by weak defenses. Despite placing artillery nearby, the urban landscape provided ample cover for opposing forces, making traditional artillery nearly ineffective.

In the face of Incindean advances, the severe winter and logistical challenges posed significant hurdles. Exploiting these weaknesses, Prench and Pyrorainian forces, led by HotCaprisun, Wolf, and Outrunsneeze, launched a counteroffensive. Operation Snowball, the Prench offensive to capture Haupstadt, failed due to tenacious Incindean resistance and strategic miscalculations. The battle saw a blown bridge and challenges for Incindean forces crossing the river, with the 341st battalion holding a defensive position on a hill.

Amidst combat, illnesses such as hypothermia and rabbit fever emerged, affecting both sides. Diseases ran rampant, exacerbated by food shortages and failed aerial supply attempts. An hour into the battle, Wolf called in aerial forces, including the 1st Aerial Brigade, to bomb and gas the streets of Haupstadt, resulting in casualties among both enemy and allied forces.

Following the intense conflict, Haupstadt lay in ruins with destroyed buildings and damaged infrastructure. The civilian population faced hardships, including shortages of food and shelter. Despite the challenges, efforts were initiated to rebuild Haupstadt. Post-battle, the Second Undead War concluded, with New Incindea showing leniency and offering protection to Prance and Pyrorainia, committing to repairing the damages incurred during the conflict.

# End of the Second Undead War

## The Christmas Treaty

The **Christmas Treaty** (Known as the Treaty under the Tree) was the treaty after the War. Prance had surrendered after the **Battle of Haupstadt,** with Pyrorainia following after.

The Treaty had featured laws such as

* Prance Demilitarized for 1 month
* High War Reparations' from Pyrorainia
* New borders

## Aftermath

After the War, Prance found itself gradually falling apart, witnessing the complete demolishment of the **Undead Confederation.** The aftermath cast a shadow over Pyrorainia, plunging it into significant debt and forcing reliance on meager trade with other nations. During this period, the **Taiyang Dynasty** and the I**ncindean Republic** decided to unite, forming a consolidated entity that retained the name Incindean Republic (Peoples Republic of incindea).

A series of terrorist attacks struck Aurora, manifesting initially as house burnings that sent shockwaves through the city. The flames of these incidents soon fanned the flames of panic across **New Incindea**, stirring unrest among its populace. As the House Burnings escalated, a disturbing revelation came to light—the emergence of the **Kiri Clan**, a clandestine group of highly skilled ninja. Their primary objective: the disintegration of Incindea, setting the stage for a covert struggle that would ultimately result in a civil war.

### Kiri

The **Kiri** was a group of highly skilled ninja that would go undercover amongst civilians. With their main goal of creating tensions amongst Incindea, they would commit serious attacks in Aurora, hoping to create tensions within Incindea.

After the formation of the Taiyang Dynasty and Incindea, the two nations had a strong bond, however other nations were disgusted of the relationship, mostly the opposing nations during the war. A small group of skilled veterans would form a small faction known as the **Kiri**. Which would begin small attacks in the town.
