Introduction
By the year 2030, Europe had entirely reached its goal of the European Union.
The countries had finally agreed upon a system of laws and rules to secure their economy
and future. Also, the Eurodollar was finally agreed upon and used, despite earlier
predictions of an economy collapse by a united monetary system. The European Union
had also decided upon military forces, actions, and policy, and each country had agreed
to follow it. It seemed as if there was finally a utopia on earth, at least until the year
2056.
The Countdown to Apocalypse
During January of 2056, the European Union began to suffer. Although they
prospered so much in the beginning, the EU suddenly felt the disadvantages of a united
Europe. The Eurodollar worth dropped as resources became limited and expensive.
Those in Europe with little money were no longer able to afford and trade resource with
others of the EU. Also, with the oil supply of the world slowly disappearing, the
European Union found itself spending more money outside of the union than within.
Within the union, countries began to devise plans of action in order to continue their own
economic prosperity. Other members of the European Union protested; however, where
quickly beaten back, when the defending countries declared the same plans to be taking
place within the accusing country. Although a United Europe seemed to be a disaster it
remained intact, still offering the benefits of protection and aid, especially important to
all in what seemed increasingly unsettling and needy times.
In the April of 2064, the economies of the Central Asian countries, Georgia,
Azerbaijan, and Kazakhstan became increasingly unstable. Numerous civil unrest and
riots began to occur, forcing the neighboring country, Russia, to take action. Russian
troops entered into the three unstable Central Asian countries and began to establish
order.
Later in the year during the fall, of 2064, the Soviet Republic of Moldavia is torn
by riots as ethnic Romanians demonstrate their demand for union with Romania. Fearing
Romania uniting with Moldavia and boosting the foreign economy, Russian MVD
(Internal Security) suppress the riots. A few days after the riots, Moscow accuses
Romania of having secretly encouraged the unrest. In February of 2065, the Romanian
government announces the arrest of five KGB agents who, they claim, had been
encouraging unrest among Romania's Hungarian minority.
In the year 2067, the earlier established plan for big investment in heavy industry
shows no economic progress for Germany. In reaction to the failing economy, radical
government organizations swell and skinhead violence against foreigners such as the
Polish and Czech increases. In order to stop the violence and satisfy the EU, the German
government responds, however very weakly. Strict immigrations laws are passed,
limiting the number of foreigners that can enter and work in Germany. The neighboring
countries of Poland and the Czech Republic protest the laws, and refer to them as "nazi"
laws of World War II.
Later in August of 2067, the Russian forces in Azerbaijan, and Kazakhstan, began
to gain the upper hand. Also, secretly throughout Russia's occupation of Central Asia, it
had been using governmental power and agents to manipulate the foreign governments.
In September, with the help of KGB agents, Russia forces Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, and
Georgia to appeal for help. Russia then complies with their "wish" and annexes. With
the rule of a new government, riots and protest spring up across the newly annexed land,
however, the present once foreign troops, now under Russian rule, quickly silence them.
Among China and Russia, disputes begin as sudden new borders are established.
In November, a large wave of violence erupts among the former republics of
Yugoslavia. Violent genocidal battles over land and power force NATO to increase troop
deployment in order to keep peace. After the fighting is brought to a stop, NATO wavers
upon a decision to possibly withdrawal from former Yugoslavia. The European Union
protests the possible decision, stating that the NATO protection of the area is crucial in
order to halt a possible future World War III. In secret, the EU wishes for NATO to stay
so that the EU does not have to take action.
Acts of racial violence in Germany suddenly increase as the year 2068 begins.
Out of ideas, the German government decides to bring in the army in order to keep peace.
The nine under strength divisions of Germany are brought up to full strength and each of
them assigned a territory. With protection in the west, the violence slowly shifts east and
escalates, targeting many Poles and Czechs. Germany declares its agreement on size and
location of its armed forces not applicable to the current state of the country. The
divisions of Germany are expanded from nine to twelve and deployed in eastern regions
to keep peace. East of Germany, Poland protests the German troop deployment and
raises several of its divisions in the west to a higher state of readiness.
During March, Poland opens secret talks with Belarus. However, because of an
earlier land disagreement the talks quickly escalate into insults and brake down. Angered
by Poland, Belarus declares to Europe that Poland made an attempt to involve it in a
"military adventure" against Germany. Slightly fearing invasion, Germany readies more
of troops and sends them east.
Later in September, anti-governmental demonstrations by ethnic Hungarians in
Romania are violently suppressed. Hungary becomes angry and declares to other
countries that the Romanian government is becoming increasingly genocidal. In
December, riots are set off in Bulgaria when a Bulgarian national, earlier arrested for the
attempt of assassination on the Turkish president, "dies in custody". Despite Turkish
protestations that he died of "natural causes", the incident soon assumes crisis proportions
and Turks are advised to leave the Balkans.
Poland, caught between a menacing Germany to the west and a dangerous Belarus
to the east, opens up talks with Moscow as of January 13th. After months of talking a
treaty is signed between the countries of the Czech Republic, Poland, Bulgaria, Hungary,
and Russia. The news of a "New Warsaw Pact" unsettles the world.
In August of 2069, the country of Belarus, surrounded by enemies and without
sufficient resources, collapses. Poland and Russia lay claim to the land and move troops
into the former country. Fearing a rebellion in Belarus, Poland declares for all people of
other than Belarus decent to leave. A group of Germans resist and are mysteriously
killed. Poland declares the Germans were killed in a riot by extremists but, in disbelief of
Poland, Germany brings more of its divisions east.
On January 1st of 2070, The European Union declares the actions of the New
Warsaw Pact and Germany had broken numerous rules and agreements of the European
Union. The NWP is demanded to disband their treaty and disperse from Belarus or they
will be embargoed from the EU. For Germany, the European Union demands for its
troops to be demobilized and moved west. Viewing national security higher than trade,
Germany and the NWP refuse to meet the demands and are embargoed in response.
Inside the NWP, the Czech Republic, a country that had benefited very little while in the
EU, proposes an operation. The operation demands for the NWP to take action against
the EU and head west, gaining access to more resources and ensure a longer economic
and national future. The Czech proposition is agreed upon, but the NWP decides that
until provoked, they will not take action.
In July of 2070, blaming Poland for their embargo from the European Union,
stricter laws are passed in Germany limiting the rights of Poles. Ethnic Polish respond to
the laws in riots but are quickly put down by the German regional division. In hope to
destabilize Poland, small sects of German government officials open up secret talks with
underground groups in Poland, and encourage revolts. Soon after, riots erupt throughout
Poland. Once the riots are silenced, Poland blames Germany or support of the riots.
Germany denies any support but does admit a few German nationalists could have
possibly slipped across the border. In order to step up security, more Polish divisions
move west.
Throughout the year of 2071, several border incidents and exchanges of artillery
occur between Polish and German border troops. In mid-July, elements of a German
division cross the border in retaliation to a Polish attack viewed as "full-scale". Within
days Poland and Germany are at war. Because neither side is adequately prepared the
war starts as "come as you are". As Germany begins to gain the advantage, three Russian
divisions in Warsaw head west to support Poland, however the Poles are still
outnumbered.
In late September, the NWP agrees upon the German invasion as provocation for
the start of the proposed operation. The Czech Republic enters the war, tipping the
balance towards Poland. Czech soldiers crack the lines of the southern German division
and cut north into Germany. Meanwhile in the east, Russian Assault Troops in newly
developed combat armor enter the lines and begin to push back the advancing troops
towards Berlin. Within weeks, NWP troops are closing in on Berlin from the east and
south. As victory against Germany draws near, the NWP declares its intention to occupy
Germany in order to prevent future aggression. The EU protests but has little success, the
EU still refusing to enter the war.
Claiming their actions were justified by Polish invasion, Germany appeals for
help from its NATO allies. While the European Countries of NATO begin to squabble
amongst themselves over if joining the war could hurt the EU, the United States and
Canada enter the German Frontier on October 10th. France, Belgium, Italy, and Greece,
demand that U.S. and Canadian troops withdraw to their start lines until the European
NATO countries and the EU reach a decision. The United States refuses the demands
and states that by rules of NATO they are required to act. Angry with NATO and
wishing to finally separate the EU from it, France, Belgium, Italy, and Greece, withdraw
their membership. In early December, Britain shows its NATO blood and joins the
conflict. Hoping to keep the EU entirely out of the war, the EU declares to Britain that
by siding with NATO they have been excluded it from the union. In the Iberian
Peninsula, Spain and Portugal, partners to NATO and the EU but not required to join the
war, decide to remain neutral. The Dutch and Danish remain in place, still partners to
NATO and the EU but not partners to war.
Hoping to make quick work of the north before a harsh winter, Russian Arctic
Troops equipped with newly designed energy weapons invade Norway. However,
Russian troops are unable to break through the lines of Norwegian Artic Marines. Later
during December, British and US Marines enter the lines and push the arctic front
eastwards towards the Kola Peninsula.
In January of 2072, a man is shot trying to cross the border from Romania into
Hungary. Hungary detests and but Romania declares he was a smuggler, transferring
arms to support anti-Romanian forces. Three days later hundreds of Romanians are
killed as a bomb is set off in a Romanian Railway Station. Blaming ethnic Hungarians
the Romanian Police conduct mass arrests. After being met with resistance, the Police
soon find themselves against violent ethnic Hungarians wishing to declare themselves as
a secessionist government, independent from Romania. In order to crush the rebellion,
Romanian troops take action and move north. After days of protesting, Hungary realizes
its arguing has provided no effect and declares war upon Romania. Troops from the rest
of the NWP move in to support Hungary.
As NWP troops cut deep into Romania during August, Romania appeals to
NATO and the EU for help. NATO refuses declaring fighting a war on two fronts to be
suicide. The EU also refuses to grant military help but does agree to continue the
embargo upon the NWP. To the east and west however, Ukraine and Yugoslavia
recognize Romania's cry. Troops from both countries are mustered and sent to the
Romanian Front. Fearing attack from Hungarian troops and not wishing to be drawn into
a war them, NATO troops withdraw from Yugoslavia.
In mid-October, Bulgarian and Turkish tensions rise. After Turks are executed in
Bulgaria for supposed rebellion, Turkey decides to take military action. Turkish tanks
and men roll north into Thrace. Angry with Turkey for possibly bringing them into
another war, NATO declares Turkey to withdraw its troops. Turkey refuses and in
response, all ties and alliances with it are canceled by NATO. In early October, seeking a
united cause of the protection of Southeast Europe, the Balkan Alliance (BA) is formed
between Turkey, Romania, Ukraine, and Yugoslavia.
In February of 2073, the continued Turkish success in Bulgaria sparks a wave of
Turkish patriotism. On Cyprus, reunited and unoccupied for many years, demonstrations
are held by Turkish Cypriots in favor of Turkey. The demonstrations quickly turn to anti-
Greek riots and force the Cypriot army to move in and restore order. In response to the
"unnecessary" violence the Turkish army invades and occupies Cyprus. To the east,
seeking to resist the occupation, Greece sends military forces. After the resisting forces
are fired upon, war is declared upon Turkey by Greece.
In mid-March, the socialist governments of Greece and Italy conclude a mutual
defense pact. The Italian government declares the alliance to be related only to the
present regional war and none other elsewhere. The country of Italy decides to not
immediately enter the war but to wait until NATO or the EU decides to join the BA and
tip the balance. The pact is known as the Mediterranean Socialist Agreement (MSA).
Now able to deploy ships in Italian waters, Greece declares it will sink all ships heading
east into Mediterranean war zone
During late spring, the Czech Republic attempts to restore the situation in
Southern Germany. Troops are sent to renew the offensive but quickly pushed back by
NATO troops newly armed with German gauss rifles. The new gauss technology allows
a NATO offensive to gain momentum. Within weeks, the first German and NATO
troops cross the border into Poland. Warsaw is soon surrounded and the citizens prepare
for a siege.
The Romanian front stabilizes in August, and enters a period of attritional
warfare. With most of Russia's troops being dedicated westwards to stop the NATO
advance, the BA is left to fighting obsolete tanks and troops armed with old weapons of
war. Although Romania has better trained troops and technology, they soon began to feel
the manpower of the NWP.
The NWP realizes the dangers of letting the Turkish advance continue in the
south. Hoping to use other means to stop the NATO advance troop deployment of the
NWP is shifted towards Bulgaria by Christmas of 2073. With increasing pressure from
Greece in the west and an aggressive advance from NWP troops in the north, Turkey
realizes that without aid, the Turkish Army will be forced to either fall back or face
defeat.
Fearing the MSA to turn west after the BA has been defeated; the EU agrees upon
a plan of action to help Turkey. On June 24th of 2074, a convoy, loaded with badly
needed supplies, ammo, and weapons, makes an attempt shoot the gap towards Turkey.
After Greek forces sink the ship, tension and hostility rise between the EU and MSA.
Still not wishing to take military action, the EU decides to embargo the MSA. Without
the economy benefit from European trade, the MSA realizes it will soon not be able to
afford imports such as oil and steel. If another significant source of resources cannot be
found, the MSA predicts the start of an unstable economy and a possible retreat from the
war.
On July 13th, with advanced elements of NATO troops on Russia soil, Russia
begins using tactical nukes. On the Russian-Polish front they are used sparingly and no
farther than 50km from the border. Understanding their to be no possible way to keep the
war from going Nuclear, NATO begins matching the NWP nuke for nuke. Although the
front lines are fluid everywhere, the fanatical use of nukes by the NWP pushes the line
west.
In mid-January of 2075, the United States announces its completion of the project
to harvest the oil deep in the Atlantic. Unknown to the rest of the world, the United
States had actually just completed Hydropolis , a secret underwater city, in 2074 and had
been securing and populating it. China declares to the world their project would have
been completed first but because of American sabotage, the project was set far behind.
