World War Lag (Classic)
Otherwise known as War Day World War IV
The infamous World War on Saturday 24th of March from 20:00-20:46 GMT, that killed everything due to lag.
Although most nations had made plans prior to the war, most were abandoned in the desperate struggle against the lag. The server fought for over 45 minutes, trying to deal with the spam created from the chat, as well as the players who constantly left and rejoined. It is not known what the cause of the lag was. For some it lagged the entire time, others it only lagged at the very end before the server crashed.
There is no official winner at the moment; it was in debate according to KarlOfDuty, however some declare Canada the unofficial winner as prior to the crash it had the most points, and others declare Germany as the victor for nearly defeating the biggest nation, Russia. But the victor was later declared to be "the server" and nobody was awarded the axe. That said, Canada and Spain received honorable mentions, and the brutal Battle of Saint Petersburg was also honored.
This war has been declared by some, "the worst war ever"

It was a fairly well planned German invasion of the Russian capital, Saint Petersburg. The plan was to quickly defeat the Russian garrison stationed in St. Petersburg while the main Russian forces attacked CCCP, however a huge amount of defenders remained in the capital. Despite this the German Heer pushed on, killing many in the process. When troops reached the homeblock of the city, the Tsar himself arrived to fight. Although the Germans self pride was high as well as there constant propaganda during this day, the Russians kept the German forces scrambled on the homeblock, succesfully protecting the capital from any sort of defeat.
