Invictan-Edmundian War

In late October 2019, Yikestopian leader Komrad Alexei Petryr had gained susbantial prominence in the region, having been elected as WA Delegate for several months as head of the True Socialist Party. However, New ciceria's Alexander Magnus and Nea Athena's Plato Sokratis, the head of the Democratic Alliance, were not happy with these results. After bringing this issue to light, Magnus had Comrade AP forcibly removed from office and took over as WA Delegate. Despite initial reluctance, AP decided to join forces with the Democratic Alliance and absolve the True Socialist Party.

Sokratis had remained a controversial figure for many, having threatened to remove Of altonianic islands and Depressea for simply refusing to bow down to his authority and criticizing him repeatedly. The seemingly more level headed Magnus had refused to take action against Sokratis. Due to his inactivity, a summit was held among Great Edmundian, Of altonianic islands', Depressean and Yikestopian leaders in Caeser's Reno. There, Comrade AP agreed to place Sokratis and Magnus under YSS surveillance.

In early November, news outlets had reported allegations against Alexander Magnus about a supposed affair against him and Yikestopian immigrant Maurice Louisky. Magnus denied allegations, although there seemed to be substantial evidence against him. Around the same time, Sokratis's former lover Nicole Sokratis and her lover Donald Silverman were found dead outside their own home, with blood evidence suggesting that Sokratis was present at the crime scene. Sokratis fled Nea Athena with his long time companion NB Bullings. During a chase with the police, Sokratis shot and killed Bullings.

The Invictan Regional Service quickly began an investigation against the two individuals. Sokratis, now having escaped to New ciceria, met with Magnus in private to discuss a plan of action. Unbeknownst to the IRS, the two were to plan a regional attack on Yikestopia. Firstly, they were to frame Odin's Watch for a plot, leading to Yikestopia launching their military far away from their homeland. Secondly, they would invade Yikestopia and all its nations and conquer through the Empire. Finally, without Yikestopia around they would be able to permanently assume power and remove all opponents from power.

Magnus, a known scientific racist, decided to have Maurice Louisky executed, and then launch the Yikee Removal Progam, a so called final solution to the Yikestopian immigrant crisis. All Yikestopians living in New ciceria were thus sent to concentration camps where they would be gassed with Zyklon B. They then faked reports and framed this event on the terrorist Group Odin's Watch. Due to the conflict, Sokratis was able to call a state of emergency in Nea Athena thus giving himself executive authority over his nation. He thus quickly dismissed the case.

The plan had been successful, but issues started to arise. The YSS Agent John Smith had observed the murder of Louisky, and the execution of which contradicted what had taken place in the New cicerian report. Also, a video had surfaced of Sokratis murdering dozens of journalists asking questions about Odin's Watch. The IRS publicly stated that the investigation into Magnus and Sokratis ended under the light of these reports, however the investigation still continued.

On November the 16th, Plato Sokratis called together his secret service officials and military generals to discuss a plan of attack. The Nea Athenan Secret Service believed they had enough information that suggested the Yikestopians were not buying that Odin's Watch had returned. In retaliation, Sokratis had Odin's Watch former leader Black Dickson released from prison, and hired him to assassinate Comrade AP.

On the 17th of November, 8:21am, while exiting a convenient store, Comrade AP was shot once in the head by Black Dickson, killing him instantly. King Edmund declared that the region undergo a three day mourning period, where the region would undergo a ceasefire for those three days. Bill Clinton succeeded Alexei Petryr as Komrad of Yikestopia.

On November the 18th, now referred to as Nuclear Monday, Nea Athenan nuclear missiles were launched. Heading for the most populated areas in Yikestopian areas, approximately 15.8 billion people were murdered from the missiles. A later 1.2 billion were murdered by Nea Athenan soldiers. Nuclear Monday is believed to be the start of the INVICTAN-EDMUNDIAN WAR. The few Yikestopian survivors would eventually form Yikelavia.

On November 19th, The Edmundian Empire and Great Edmundia declared war on Nea Athena and New ciceria.

After a few days of short conflicts arising in the ruins of Yikestopian states, the Edmundian Empire launched multiple F-22 Raptor attacks on Aristotelis on the 24th of November. The Nea Athenan military, which had largely relied on guerrilla warfare strategies, were absolutely crushed by the superior Edmundian military. 123 million casualties were estimated.

The Assault on Aristotletis led Alexander Magnus and Plato Sokratis to realize the true power of the Edmundian Military. Magnus believed that proposing a ceasefire would be the best possible outcome, however Sokratis argued that any treaty would result in vastly negative obligations for Nea Athena and New ciceria. The two governments thus decided that one large attack on the financial centre of the Edmundian Empire: The Dogetopian Trading Post.

On the 27th of November, Helicopters flew into the Trading Post, and a large scale invasion was attempted. What the Athenans and Cicerians had not anticipated, however, was the full force of the Empire's military. The invading helicopters were all shot down. 348 were estimated to have been shot down before even reaching the Trading Post. This event is known as T-Day.

Realising the losses they had, Sokratis and Magnus immediately drafted the Invictan-Edmundian Treaty. The Treaty detailed that New ciceria and Nea Athena would hand over most of their WMDs to the Edmundians and ceasefire as long as The Edmundian Empire and Great Edmundia would ceasefire as well.

On the 29th of November, King Edmund signed the Invictan-Edmundian Treaty, bringing end to the Invictan-Edmundian War.

What was the aftermath? Other than the billions who died due to this pointless conflict, many political ramifications occurred. The end of Yikestopia and birth of Yikelavia in many ways ended the era of socialist thinking in Newingtonian regions and ushered a new way of thinking through anarchism. Due to the inadequacies of the leaders, many felt dissatisfied with the corruption and utter brutality of the Democratic Alliance, who refused to step down. Plato Sokratis and Nea Athena were ultimately never punished for their crimes.

The dissatisfaction with the Invictan government led to Edxit, where Great Edmundia declared their plans to leave Invicta unless the region was fixed. As nothing was changed, King Edmund held his promise and on the 12th of December, Great Edmundia left Invicta. This walkout inspired many to follow in his lead, and The texan revolution, Depressea, Of altonianic islands, Osajia and Yikelavia would leave the dwindling region. Although no side was officially victorious, we can see by the damage caused that clearly, Invicta is the losing region.

Lives Lost:

Komrad Alexei Petryr I (1980-2019)

Komrad Bill Clinton (1946-2019)

NB Bullings (1993-2019)

Nicole Sokratis (2000-2019)

Donald Silverman (2000-2019)

Maurice Louisky (2010-2019)

And approximately 19.123 billion more...
