The Troubles are a series of ongoing minor conflicts and battles between the Irish-Icelandic Union and Britain taking place in Ireland, Iceland, and the northern areas of Great Britain.
The Troubles trace their origins back to a deterioration of relations between Britain and the IIU following talks of bringing Britain into the union/alliance. While things initially seemed to be going well, it became increasingly clear that the ideological differences of the British leadership and the IIU leadership would make cooperation and satisfaction of all parties nearly impossible, with the former government being focused on PvP and autocracy and the latter leading a more neutral, pacifistic, and democratic lifestyle.
The disagreement between the two nations grew stronger when several towns and high-ranking officials in Britain split off from their mother country, instead choosing to join the IIU by their own choice, favoring the more easygoing players and the right to self-determination. While Britain announced that they would allow towns to come and go from their nation as they please, they protested heavily towards any towns joining the IIU.
The conflicts that would come to be known as The Troubles began initially with Britain hunting their own dissident members, driving more and more of their towns and population towards joining the Irish. Britain was also accused by the IIU several times of hiring players to patrol and camp towns in Iceland and Ireland, with multiple players being killed outside of claims, though no definitive proof of mercenary hirings has surfaced.
No official declaration of war has been made by either side, but relations between the two nations are unquestionably hostile.
