THE GREAT WAR
The Great War started in the year 1900 with the tensions between the many Imperial Powers of the world and local regional powers trying to gain an advantage. While at first, a diplomatic resolution was expected, the tensions escalated and a war ensued, which turned out to be much bloodier than any other war ever before.
At first it was a regional conflict of East Persia and Greater Konstantinople alone, but nations such as the Dragomerian Islands jumped it at the grave insult by the Konstantinopleans to the other powers. Yurizlansia, a staunch ally of Greater Konstantinople, then sided with its fellow members of the Athens Pact.
The situation really broke down when Greater Konstantinople annexed Crimea (which had a Greek majority, greek being a sizable culture of their Republic) and when attack of Alshr (Komminlandic colony) started.
The Dutch Empire could not tolerate this anymore, and mobiized its military to defend the East Persians and Komminlandic. Then it called its Messyrian allies to the war. This quickly came to be not only a war of attrition, but a brutal playground to test the new weaponry and strategies of the coming century.
It is blurry who actually started the war, both sides blaming each other. Konstantinopleans blaming the Imperialistic powers while the Coalition blaming Konstantinoplean "Hypocritical Expansion".
The Coalited Powers
This is a loose alliance of Imperial (but still democratic save a few exceptions) Powers, claiming to be defending their interests against the rising unjustified Konstantinoplean expansion. The following nations have been fightning in the Coalited side. Other nations may eventually join this rapidly-growing side:
-East Persia
-Komminland (Alshr Territory)
-Messeren (Also known as Messyria)
-The Dragomerian Islands
-The Dutch Empire
-Icecapriania
-Yumanza

The Athens Pact
This is a firm alliance of the Yurizlansian and Konstantinoplean nations, fightning against what they claim to be a rightful struggle against Imperialism. Other nations may come in to join this pact.
-Greater Konstantinople
-Yurislanzia
-Guantanamo

The war rages on to this day, whoever wins will decide the future of European History... and by proxy, the world itself.
