=== Dutch-Sulawesi War === | |||
==== Outbreak of War with Sulawesi ==== | |||
On December 23, 2025, at 21:34 UTC, the Dutch government formally issued a declaration of war against the [[Aurora:Sulawesi|Sulawesi]]. The casus belli cited by the Netherlands was the "unlawful overclaim" of [[Aurora:Batavia|Batavia]], the capital of the [[Dutch East Indies]]. Sulawesi, however, rejected the legitimacy of this claim, counter-arguing that the Netherlands had demonstrated "negligence and hypocrisy" by failing to defend its territories, such as Sumatra, and for previously overclaiming Sulawesi's allies in Borneo. | |||
==== Rapid Escalation and International Backlash ==== | |||
The declaration triggered a mediocre domino effect of international intervention. On the morning of December 24, the [[Vietnamese Empire]] declared war on the Netherlands in support of Sulawesi. This was followed by [[Aurora:Mataram|Mataram]]. | |||
By December 25, the [[Aurora:Nubia|Nubian Empire]] formally denounced the Dutch colonial policy as "anachronistic violence." While Nubia refrained from a direct declaration of war, it signaled clear material and diplomatic support for the Sulawesi-led coalition. | |||
==== Formation of the ASEAN Bloc and Isolation ==== | |||
On December 26, 2025, the escalation reached a diplomatic turning point when [[ASEAN]] conducted an alliance-wide vote. The result was a formal declaration to embargo the Netherlands and its territories. | |||
The geopolitical landscape shifted further following a non-aggression pact between Vietnam and Nubia. Leveraging this stability, [[Aurora:Australia|Australia]] and the [[Aurora:Philippines|Philippines]] formally joined the ASEAN alliance. On January 10, 2026, the inclusion of [[Aurora:Victoria|Victoria]] into ASEAN further solidified the regional front against the Netherlands. | |||
==== Conclusion of the War ==== | |||
Despite the breadth of international sanctions, the coordinated trade embargoes ultimately proved ineffective. Rather than crippling the Dutch economy, VOC profits rose by 13 percent over the course of the conflict, underscoring both the resilience of Dutch commercial networks and the limitations of the embargo strategy. | |||
The war formally came to an end through diplomatic channels rather than battlefield resolution. Fangering, the Dutch Minister of Foreign Affairs, negotiated a ceasefire agreement with the Nubian leadership, bringing hostilities to a close and signaling a transition from open confrontation to a tense but stabilized regional order. | |||
=== Germany joins === | |||
On February 21, 2026, after weeks of negotiation, Germany joined the United Kingdoms of the Netherlands. A few days later, many major German towns such as Prague and Bratislava joined the Netherlands. | |||
The meganation thus grew to encompass most of Benelux, Germany, Switzerland, Czechia, Slovakia, Austria, Scandinavia, the Baltics, and parts of Indonesia, containing over 20,000 chunks and 2,000 residents. | |||
=== Merger of DEI === | |||
On March 22, 2026, Dutch East Indies was fully integrated into the Netherlands nation. | |||
