### The Battle of Taiwan (2055)

In the summer of 2055, ships from many different nations gathered in the Taiwan Strait of the South China Sea. The Allies, an America and India led coalition against Chinese expansion, out to preserve Taiwan's sovereignty, kept their navies in a tight and dangerously clustered formation. The Allied Powers, led by the US, India and Australia attempt to check and encircle China. With peace talks occurring in Tokyo, the Hegemony saw a perfect distraction, and Chinese drones and missiles struck the Allied formation, wiping out much of the fleet in a few hours on August 8, until they were reduced to 1/3 of there original fighting strength. Despite this, the remaining continued to resist against their vastly superior enemy.

With the Allied fleet on its last legs, the Communist Federated Republics (CFR) saw the perfect opportunity to intervene on China's behalf. The CFR deployed vessels from its submarine fleet to the battle, taking the Allies by surprise, and discouraging any hopes of a successful retreat or victory of any kind.

The Hegemony proceeded to land 100 thousands of marines on the island. The following night would be a bloody struggle for Taiwan responsible for millions of deaths. By the morning of August 11, the capital of Taipei fell and Taiwan capitulated, being reabsorbed into the PRC after a century of unofficial independence. Australia and New Zealand were the only two nations left with an intact fleet.

   Immediately after the failure at Taiwan, China invaded its neighboring states: Vietnam and Korea fell to the Hegemony in only a few weeks. Before long, they were annexed directly into the Chinese Hegemony. India was invaded as well by China and its ally, the Holy Islamic Empire (HIE). In spite of the natural barrier provided by the Himalayan Mountains, China managed cross into Indian soil by attacking through the weaker buffer states of Nepal and Bhutan, annexing both nations in the process. Despite these grave losses, however, India held out, refusing to surrender as its allies fell to the Hegemony.

## The Hegemony Push (2055-2060)

### Battle of the Philippines (2055-2056)

The Philippines was the next target, taking longer to fall, as China and the CFR marched on the capital of Manila but became bogged down fighting in the thick jungles of the central islands. The Philippines held out for a few more months before Indonesia and its smaller neighbors were persuaded to join the war on the side of Hegemony, invading the now isolated Allied nation from the south.

In the process of this agreement, China gained the island city state of Singapore, occupying it without much of a fight; after all, the island was completely surrounded by Malaysia from the north and Indonesia to the south.

Indonesia invaded the the southern islands of the Philippines as well as the neutral Papua New Guinea, overpowering the ladder first. It was then annexed by Indonesia.

The Filipino front collapsed not long after, resulting in a joint Indonesian-Chinese occupation that would last nearly twenty years. Despite this, thousands of soldiers and civilians living in the Philippines would flee to the jungles and continue a long guerrilla campaign that was never fully crushed by the Hegemony.

### Operation Eastern Devils (2057-2058)

Japan attempted to stay out of the war and even form closer diplomatic ties with China, but with much of the Pacific already under Hegemony control, and Japan viewed as a potential threat to the Hegemony, China invaded nonetheless. In a risky move, it decided to achieve the once thought impossible through its invasion of a country never conquered by a foreign power in its entire history.

China landed the southern island of Kyushu, while the CFR touched down on Hokkaido. Japan, a country previously wracked by decades of depression and military cutbacks, was not ready for a full scale invasion. Taken by surprise, the Japanese defenders could only delay the invasion to allow for civilians to flee. Those who fell into Hegemony hands were brutally and efficiently killed.

After capturing Hokkaido, the CFR let China completely take over the operation, with millions of Chinese troops making a landing in northwest Honshu, the biggest of the Japanese main islands. Meanwhile, smaller forces were sent to capture the smaller, more scattered Japanese islands, such as Okinawa and Iwo Jima, pushing the collapsing government further into a corner. Seeing the invasion take place, and China as the visible aggressor, the majority Japanese nation of Peru joined the Allies.

### Battle of Tokyo (2058)

By mid-2058, Japan's territory was reduced to a defensive circle around Greater Tokyo. Knowing the campaign was unsalvageable, the US, Australia, India, Peru and New Zealand sent whatever fleet they could muster for the largest evacuation in all of human history. Millions of Japanese civilians were evacuated before the city fell, but many were sadly left behind.

### Operation Pearl (2058-2060)

After swiftly conquering Japan, the Hegemony shifted its attention to Australia, invading its north from Indonesia and Timor-Leste. Assembling an absolutely massive fleet for the jobs, China and Indonesia began their invasion. The dangerously outnumbered navies of Australia and New Zealand attempted to fight off the Hegemony fleets, only succeeding in defeating one of the three, still allowing for the armies of the Hegemony to grab a foothold in Darwin.

From that foothold, the Hegemony pushed, capturing the entire northern coast before long, and beginning scattered but still brutal fighting in the outback. Along with their indisputable naval superiority, the Hegemony soon dominated the air by bombarding vital Australian air-bases in the early weeks of the campaign. Australia, though, continued fighting, launching Operation Kangaroo, the defense of their homeland. The Australian Royal Army launched a counteroffensive near Alice Springs, catching the Hegemony completely off guard, and forcing them into a small retreat across the whole front.

The victory, however, was only temporary, as it failed to push the Hegemony off the island. And thanks to the arrival of reinforcements, the Australian Army was forced to flee again, this time being pushed further south.

### Battle of Sydney (2060)

The powerful Chinese navy, unrivaled in the Pacific, began a blockade of various Australian ports, mainly focusing attention on Sydney, attacking it from the sea and air to soften it up. Chinese and Indonesian land forces then found their way to the city, resulting in a seven-month-long bloody struggle for the heart of Australia. Regardless of Australia's determination, the city still fell, leaving the capital of Canberra open to attack.

The government was forced to abandon the city, leaving it for the Chinese Hegemony to take without a fight, with the new capital now being held in Hobart, Tasmania. To pile onto their failures, New Zealand was invaded and seized by an elite contingent of Chinese Shock Troopers; Australia now had to carry on the fight alone.

    Australia was reduced to two small pockets in the far south, refusing to surrender, and instead maintain what land it still controlled.

As Australia settled for a protracted conflict, the Hegemony made a massive push into the Pacific, taking the small islands that avoided Chinese control: Guam, Micronesia, Fiji, Tonga, the Solomon Islands, the Marshall Islands, Samoa and American Samoa were invaded and easily overpowered. The landslide victory allowed the Hegemony to inch closer to America itself as the Pacific slowly fell to their combined might.

### Battle of Hawaii & Operation Dragon's Fire (2060)

In spite of the wars still being fought in Asia and Oceania, with India and Australia, the Hegemony went ahead with its plans for America, beginning with the invasion of Midway Atoll and not long after, the US state of Hawaii.

In a brief but bloody battle, the US suffered its first major territorial loss of the war. Due to the US's previous loss at Taiwan, and the destruction of its whole Pacific fleet, the islands fell in only weeks, and now, China was provided with a base for the eventual invasion of the mainland itself.

Hawaii would become an important base for China, being used as a shooting off point for China's invasion of the United States later that year.

China and the CFR struck at the US itself, first launching a massive nuclear attack that wiped out most of the west coast and Washington DC, followed by a force of ninety-million troops landing in the remains of Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Anchorage and Juneau. The US, not expecting a full on invasion their territory, was forced to retreat from the ruins of their country, being forced all the way to the Mississippi River and Canadian Wilderness. West of the river, all that remained free was the island of Vancouver in Canada, which was under siege by the CFR.

## The Long Attrition

### Battle of Vancouver (2060-2065)

The last connection between America and the Pacific was in the island of Vancouver, which managed to stay free from China and the CFR due to its strategic uselessness and its souring population of over twenty million refugees from all over the American west. After many half hearted attempts by the CFR, Vancouver managed its freedom through perseverance.

Despite being under siege by the Hegemony, the Allies, to preserve their territory, pulled off Operation North Star, the aerial supply of Vancouver. Many planes were shot down, but just enough made it through to prevent its collapse from starvation.

This island of war, against all odds and stranded, staved off conquest, and survives to see America's liberation in 2065.

### Australia at War (2061-2067)

The Hegemony invaded Australia mostly to get its vast resources; the people of Occupied Australia were put into slavery, forced to mine and work oil drills or be killed. In the Hegemony's occupied territory, constant guerrilla insurgencies and partisans rose up to resist their rule. As a result, people suspected of being conspirators against the Hegemony were rounded up into death camps in killed on mass by 2063.

In 2062, as the Hegemony reached the height of its power, Indonesia annexed its smaller neighbor states and occupied territories, pacifying Malaysia, Brunei, Timor-Leste and the Solomon Islands.

The remaining Australian navy, while decimated, fought in the Pacific, Indian and Antarctic Oceans, creating a vital supply chain between itself, India and the African Union (AU), which was under attack by the Holy Islamic Empire, and barely holding it together. Essentials like fresh water and raw materials were shipped all over the struggling Allied nations, creating an area of Allied naval dominance in a time of near-complete Hegemony control. The Allies, in this area, came into constant clashing with the powerful navies of China, Indonesia and the HIE.

For the next six years, zero progress was made on the front, and upwards of over a ten thousand people would die, a number that was shockingly low for the war it was a part of. Even when the Holy Islamic Empire betrayed the Hegemony in late-2064, it would be another two years before Australia would make any major offensives. But watching how the war in America turned by 2065 in the favor of the United States, Australia waited for the day it could liberate itself.

## Indonesian Civil War (2066-2067)

In early 2067, the Godking of the HIE called upon loyal followers of Allah living in the Hegemony nations to openly revolt against their unfaithful governments, beginning a series of insurgencies and outright civil wars in China, Bangladesh, and more importantly, Indonesia, which was affected the worst by these revolts. It lost all its major islands, including the most populated, Java, which contained the capital city of Jakarta.

Crippled by this war, the Indonesian Army was forced to ask for Chinese assistance in quashing the Muslim rebels; as a result, the Hegemony had to pull forces from the front in Australia, leaving it very vulnerable to significant counterattack.

Meanwhile, within the Hegemony, China invaded the main islands of Indonesia, after crushing the insurrectionist Cambodia region in China and the Malay peninsula. But unable to distinguish friend from foe, the Chinese Hegemony began depopulating the area.

The islands of Sumatra and Java were next on the list. Sumatra fell in a short but deadly battle, leaving Java, the center of this rebellion, in a susceptible position.

### Battle of Jakarta (2067)

China invaded Java, taking much of the island, but struggling at Jakarta, the rebel epicenter. After a while, China used the last of its tactical nukes on the city, razing it completely and killing the last of the Islamic resistance on the island. After that vital battle, the rebellion was reduced to Borneo and Sulawesi. By the early months of 2067, the war in Indonesia ended with the rebellion being crushed entirely.

## Operation Dragon Hunter (2067)

During this time, Australia wrote up plans for its great strike back at the Hegemony, bombarding the diminished enemy forces for months, before punching through the initial defenses and seeing the rest of the campaign as a breeze, stumbling upon practically no resistance in the Outback. Before long, Darwin, the first piece of Australian land to fall, was liberated. In the process, they found entire armadas of abandoned Indonesian ships and submarines. All that was left was a continuous line of beachheads in the east, expanding from Sydney to Cape York.

However, unable to maintain the width of the new front, it soon collapsed, leaving Sydney as the last holdout.

**Second Battle of Sydney:** Australia's most populated city was finally recaptured in the spring of 2067, brushing passed the last of the Chinese resistance in Australia; forces not decimated in the battle fled to Occupied New Zealand. Now, New Zealand was the only important Hegemony stronghold in Oceania, one incredibly vulnerable to Allied attack.

### The Ceasefire & HAVA Virus (2067-2071)

The invasion of New Zealand was postponed when the Allies and Hegemony signed a temporary ceasefire, so they could focus their attention on destroying the HIE. And it was further postponed by the HIE releasing the fearsome HAVA Virus, a bio-engineered form of Ebola, which halted all progress in the entire war and began carving through the human population.

**The Plague Years:** Australia had its already low population very diminished from the war, further decreased by the outbreak. When it was discovered that the disease spread through trees, Australia, along with the other nations of the world, burned them down, destroying the forests of Northern Australia. Many of the unique species of plant and animal went extinct in the wild, including the world famous Koala Bear.

**End of the HIE:** By 2070, the HAVA Virus was mostly wiped out from the world, allowing the war to continue on schedule.

Australia and Indonesia mostly provided assistance in the form of troops and raw materials to India, the European Union and CFR during their campaigns in the Middle East and Africa.

Once the HIE was exterminated by early 2071, the war was finally allowed to continue, ending the years of ceasefire with the Allied invasion of the Communist Federated Republics in June.

## Operation Waltzing Matilda (2072-2076)

The Allies, after defeating the CFR, turned all attention toward the remaining Hegemony, beginning an island hopping campaign in the summer of 2072. The islands taken back first were New Zealand and Hawaii. After initially going toe to toe with the still powerful Chinese armada, the islands themselves were taken without much resistance, as the Hegemony lost faith in preserving the isolated and far out regions.

The Allies then began targeting the heavily weakened Indonesia, a land previously decimated from years of government-sponsored purgings of the populous. They struck at the island of New Guinea, invading it in 2074. The island fell easily; no one was shocked to see it stripped of its population, as nearly twenty years of conflict had made these atrocities commonplace.

On August 4th 2074, the Philippine is liberated was won, the major for a combat operation to American forces is victory, the Chinese Hegemony unconditionally surrender to the American troops.

The officially ended of Operation Waltzing Matilda was decisive the American victory is won.

### Operation Tempest (2074)

The Allies, from its new base in the Philippines, began bombing Taiwan, Occupied Japan, and the Chinese coast, killing thousands of people everyday, and softening it up for eventual invasion.

### Operation Blue Storm (2075)

The United States of America Alliance Defense Command for the preparation of planned Allied invasion of Japan, the US led Free Japanese forces under the assistance of the United States were landed in Kyushu and Greater Tokyo. Quickly, they advanced, eventually taking back every island without nearly the resistance expected of them, as most were ordered to flee for the defense of mainland China. The last island to be reconquered was Hokkaido on December 9, 2075, when the last vestige of Chinese presence was forced to retreat in the port city of Wakkanai. The Russian island under Chinese occupation of Sakhalin was then secured right after.

Japan, like most of the other places liberated during the war, was found completely depopulated and sapped of the Japanese culture. All that remained of the Japanese was Free Japan, which was ready to resettle their homeland.

In early-2076, Indonesia became the second to last nation to surrender to the Allies, leaving China as the only Hegemony power to destroy.

### Second Battle of Taiwan (2076)

Taiwan, the island that started the war, was liberated not long after Japan in 2076 in an easy victory. For the next year, the Allies would amass the force necessary for the invasion of China.

### Operation Scorched Garden (2077)

From positions in Taiwan and Japan, the Allies invaded mainland China with one of the largest invasion forces ever assembled in history. Within the invasion's beginning hours, half a million people died. The Allies, though, still set up several beachheads in China, slowly pushing deeper into the mainland before cutting it off from the Pacific entirely.

### Battle of Beijing (2077)

The Allies soon encircled and smashed through defenses at the capital of Beijing, forcing the government to move to Xían.

### Battle of Xían (2077)

The last major battle of the war was in Xían, when the Chinese Army attempted to make a last counteroffensive. After 4 million deaths, the Hegemony lost, China's dictator General Hon was killed in action, and the army entirely collapsed, resulting in China requesting a surrender agreement, finally ending the Third World War, and bringing the Pacific to peace at last.
