History
Beginning
The conflict began on the 29th of May when the mayor of Port Jason (Baconmayonaise1), felt as if the freedom of his town was supressed and that the nation was toxic, which sparked a desire for liberty within him. His newfound thirst for freedom lead him to establish Zealandia, a sovereign entity separate from the Republic of Havaiki. The split provoked the Havaikians, as deducible via their denunciation.
Battle of Atua
The Battle of Atua took place on the 2nd of June and was an attack by the Zealandians on Havaiki. An estimated peak of 15 players were involved in the clash, with an undocumented number of fatalities.
Ceasefire
Following the Battle of Atua, a ceasefire was called, although it was later allegedly disregarded.
Global Impact
Following the beginning of the war, nations such as Cascadia, Pilbara, The Himalayas and Laurentia expressed support for Havaiki, whereas Dian expressed it's support for Zealandia.
