Sibarian Satellites have picked up the Carrier Battlegroup. Sibarian troops and ships stationed on Moneylanianic Islands are now on standby. The Navy continue to move south at a slow pace, but begin to man their guns.

Damanian Air Force Carriers have been dispatched to the Lothinese area, to cover the LJPA advancement from entering Scuro. LJPA rebels have seemed to back off a bit. YP Forces have taken this perfect opportunity to place its troops back in Lothi.

The Carriers, carrying a few 1000 troops from all over the Youthsville Pact, are expected to reachLothinese waters in teh next few days.

Diplomatic Missive to The Youthsville Pact:

While we appreciate the reinforcements in Lothi, we would much appreciate it if you confirmed that with us first in the future. The Ironcatle Engineering Corps will reestablish bases for any Youthsville Pact troops immediately.

A message to Ironcastle:

Very well, before we move our carriers any further, would you like us to help against the LJPA again? We await a response.

*The Platácian Battlegroup moves to engage the Sibarian fleet, as more reinforcements are sent in.*

The Sibarian Carrier Group prepares for the attack, maning the guns, preping aircraft and getting men ready for launch

Outside the Platácian Senate:

Emperor Siciliano: Yesterday, November 22nd 2026, a day that will live infamously. The United Empire of Platácia was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval forces of the Federation of Sibaria. The Senate has already approved a declaration of war upon these people who would break the peace for no valid purpose, and requests for aid have been sent to the Moneylania Council and MATO. We have urged the Youthsville Pact to reconsider their violent ways, but these messages have only been met with silence. We are at war.

*The Platácian Battlegroup is waiting just outside the range of the Sibarian fleet as reinforcements approach*

Diplomatic missive to Platacia:

Your declaration of war on Sibaria is an outrage. Their ships were in international water when your battle group engaged them. However, Ironcastle will remain neutral in this conflict. As such, any combat in Ironian territory will be taken as a declaration of war, no matter who begins it.

*More ships join the Platácian battlegroup, but avoid conflict*

LIVE FROM VLADIVASTAK. BROADCASTING FROM EVERY CHANNEL

Jakovic DetWhiller: Men and women of Sibaria, the Youthsville Pact and Moneylania. It is my duty to inform the world that the Empire of Platacia has declared war on the nation of Sibaria. We will not remove our navy from international waters. Emperor Siciliano does not have a say in international water. His absured ways of dealing with foreign powers is an outrage to the name of "peace", something the the MC and MATO consider there prime objective.

On the 22nd of November, 2026, Platacia declared war on Sibaria, and we are going finish it. Victorious. Goodbye.

*He walks off the podium, to cheers and shouts from the massive crowd*

BROADCASTING FROM YOUTHSVILLE, DAMINY

Pres. Kelovik: Fellow Damanians, it is my melancholy duty to inform you officially, that in consequence of a persistence by Platacia in her invasion of StarkingSeabers and the provocation, Sibaria has declared war upon her and that, as a result, Daminy is also at war. No harder task can fall to the lot of a democratic leader than to make such an announcement. Daminy is now at war, and will uphold its greatest promise, to serve Sibaria against the tyranny of the world.

*Banana Federation has begun mobilising their forces*

A Sibarian Carrier Battle Group has reinforced the navy in the international waters outside of Platacia, bringing the amount of Battlegroups to three.

Damanian Carrier Battle Groups wait long enough. The first barrage of shells hits the area around the Platacian ships. Some ships are damaged. All jets and bombers are prepared for lift-off.

Daminy, and the Youthsville Pact claim provocation and unjust declaration of war as their Casus Belli.

The Platácian ships return fire with their full force (including launching planes), and as they do, Bananish and Platácian reinforcements come into range of the Sibarian and Damanian radar. They begin moving to engage hostile forces.

Platácia cites diplomatic insult as their casus belli.
Banana Federation cites "they shot at us" as their casus belli.

Mesage to all belligerents of the Platacia-Sibaria War:

Ironcastle officially declares its neutrality in all matters related to this war. We expect that any ship flying the Ironian flag be granted safe passage to its destination as well. In addition, Ironcastle will open its ports for humanitarian purposes, including allowing heavily damaged ships to dock until repaired and wounded are removed.

Platácia and Banana Federation respect Ironcastle's decision to remain neutral, and promise not to intentionally damage any Ironian property or harm any Ironian citizens.

The Sibarian Navy advances quickly on the Platacian Navy, with jets and bombers now in full force.

The Youthsville Pact respects Ironcastle's decision. We will not harm any Ironian citizens or army personel.

The reinforcements encircle the Sibarian fleet and begin firing on them. Planes are launched to destroy Sibraian aircraft carriers, while others protect friendly ones. Half of the Platácian navy is already fighting in the battle with more ships being prepared to join it.

Damanian reinforcements finally arrive from the North. The small carrier battlegroup starts firing at the Platacian navy, opening up a way for the Sibarians to get out.

The Damanian reinforcements are suddenly hit by a barrage of torpedoes, as Platácian submarines sneak up behind them. Platácian forces have concentrated their fire almost completely on Sibarian aircraft carriers, while Bananish forces protect them.

The Sibarian Navy continue to move foward. Sice the Platacian navy is almost completely focusing their fire on aircraft, they take this moment to fire their missles at the ships. The Damanian battlegroup releases their submarines to draw attention from their navy.

Platácian forces have started to gain air superiority in the battle, meaning that our aircraft are starting to face less resistance and can inflict heavy damage upon Sibarian ships. Platácian submarines and cruisers attack the Sibarian submarines in order to stop more surprise attacks. Aircraft are now targeting heavy ships, while naval forces attack anti- air ships and aircraft carriers.

The Sibarian Navy balances Anti-Air fire and enemy naval ship fire, while gaining naval advantage. The submurines beging to fire missles at the hull of the ships.

Damanian Fighter Jets and Bombers take off and begin to fire at enemy aircraft and naval vessels.
