Myterria-Coalition War

The Myterria-Coaliton War was a minor conflict in the Sea of Petals. It spawned due to poor politics and general toxicity

Tensions
Tensions in the region were high long before the Bandit Haven of Myterria came to be. A exiled ruler from Sorligste named Pandaz landed on an abandoned castle floating in the Sea of Petals. Pandaz called it Myterria Castle and it would serve as the future capital of the Haven. He funded the colonization of another island. It was dubbed Dusk Port. The two islands united to for the Bandit Haven of Myterria. There was two months of peace with the Haven gaining more and more players. However tensions rose when The Haven added Rochogrod. A breakaway island trying to be free from Halge. Tensions rose with both Halge and Synderia, who wanted to add the Haven to its growing empire. Pandaz was ready to give up the Rogue island to avoid war, but Rochogrod leader Smoggy, begged Pandaz to help him. Pandaz took pity on him and stood his ground. A war ticket was never filed but tensions remained.

The formation the Coalition
Halge, angered that Pandaz had went over their head and wanting to quell a potential threat, formed the Anti-Myterria Coalition made up of some Allium Entente members and Kronesia, Pandaz enemies from Sorligste. Pandaz, seeing the power the Coalition held, allied with Swagistan and The Three Thrones who was in the Coalition but hated Halge. He also joined the Phalanx Pact, made up of other small island states.

The Spark
On May, 2, Pandaz jokingly announced an invasion of Halge by Myterria. In response, Halges king, Dolphin gathered the Coalition members and prepared and ultimatum for Pandaz demanding he give Rochogrod to Halge, and the remaining land goes to Al-Naas, a Synderian state. Pandaz finding the unprovoked ultimatum harsh and unreasonable, refused. The Coalition declared war the next day.

The great betrayal
Pandaz was unable to log on due to computer problems. Pandaz then temporarily gave the claim to Rat de Florence, Pandaz younger brother. Rat was at first loyal to Pandaz, but Dolphin organized a secret meeting with both Rat and Smoggy saying that if they gave Myterria Castle to Al-Naas, Rochogrod would be safe and if not he could not guarantee Rochogrods safety. Despite the fact that the fight was actually in favor of a Myterrian victory, the two once friends of Pandaz, stabbed him in the back. Pandaz was devastated as he was coming of the loss of a loved one in real life. Pandaz begged Rat to reconsider and that "he needed this" and "I stood my ground for you". Rat didn't care that the odds were in Myterrias favor, he didn't care what Pandaz was going through, he cared about the slim chance that Rochogrod might be attacked.

The Battle of Dusk Port
Battle that raged, but seemed to be apparent to whom would win, Dusk Port took victory over Diabolus-Castelum.

Moral
The Myterria-Coalition war was fought on poor politics, ignorance, general pettyness, and toxicity from both sides. Its an example of what can happen when national pride gets in the way of logic.
