From: the Great Union of Germany
To: the Grand Duchy of Scandinavia
We hereby declare war on your nation. We have had enough of your ways of peace. We are sending 10,000 troops to invade your nation. You do not stand a chance against our armies.
Leopold Esinberg
Leader of Germany
Berlin
Leopold finished writing the telegram that would decide the fate of the Council of Nations. He hated the CON. Leopold had spies in the Martinalandian government and several other governments around the globe that had joined the Council. The spies were trying to convince the nations that the CON were warmoungers who wanted to unite the planet under an "United Earth" and that they would kill anyone who tried to oppose them. Just then, an aside came in. She said "The invasion force is ready to cross the Danish border on your command, sir." Leopold replied "Tell the invasion force to wait until the telegram is sent. Then we will begin the war."
A few hours later...
Danish border
Florian looked out at the border post. It was lightly defended. The customs officer had gone home for his lunch break. Now was their chance. He said "Attack!" The invasion force stormed across the border and destroyed any military post in sight. The war had begun.
