Second Falklands-Malvinas War
The Malvinas-Falklands War is an on-going conflict that started on July 4, 2020, between the town Malvinas (owned by Argentina) and the town BritishFalklands (owned by Joel02). Both are located in the Falkland Islands.
Casus belli
The clear main reason for war being declared was the killing of an Argentine troop by British Falklands, however, there is more to it than that. British Falklands was seen as a clear breach of Argentina's territory and therefore Malvinas was set up next to the fortified town as an attempt to reclaim the land in some way.
The towns were in conflict from the moment Argentina planted the town, however, it properly began PVP wise when Joel02 (British Falklands) launched an operation to irritate Malvinas as revenge for them planting the town (an attempt to stop Joel02 expanding).
Joel02 noticed Nikocholas' name tag when he was fishing on the beach, upon seeing Joel02 rushed to make a tunnel and infiltrate the ice rail tunnel hoping to kill someone. No one was there, however later on Joel02 lured Argentine forces into his tunnel that lead directly to the inside of his town. There were several wooden doors in the 1 wide tunnel in which Joel02 managed to trap one of them. Upon trapping, he quickly attacked them. The soldier being attacked left the game (unknown why), so Joel02 left lava there which killed the soldier the minute they rejoined. Almost as soon as they died, Nikocholas declared war on behalf of Argentina (as can be seen in chat logs).
Timeline
- June 22: Joel02 establishes a town in the islands for the third time.
- June 25: Joel02 joins Patagonia but quickly leaves the nation after claiming enough land.
- June 30: Nikocholas establishes a town in the islands after La Plata notices Joel02's return.
- July 2: Walls and general fortifications are built on the Falkland side. An attempt at a non-aggression pact between both towns is made by Nikocholas, however with no success.
- July 4: Malvinas officially declares war on BritishFalklands after Joel02 kills an Argentine soldier in a tunnel under his town, and partly due to a build-up in general hostilities between both sides.
As of writing, this is it so far.
