Introduction
For years Ukraine has been devastated by continuous war in the east. Thousands of lives have been lost, leaving the people of Ukraine with no one to look to. Yet there was an opportunity that came upon them. Shortly after the Minsk Peace Agreement, a referendum was presented to Ukraine which allowed the nation to become a state in the U.N.E.
Ukraine joined the UNE after voting yes on the referendum with a narrow margin. Ever since Ukraine was incorporated into the UNE as a state, the nation has seen large amounts of violence in the area. Protests against both separatists and the UNE have risen and have sparked violence many times and a surge of corruption scandals in Ukraine have come up recently. Europa has tried to combat this by imposing tighter security into the Ukrainian government to find corrupt politicians. As of now, 5 politicians from Ukraine have been found guilty of colluding with Russia and separatists to make it harder for the UNE to keep peace within Ukraine. 2 years later and the situation is worse.
Protests that take place get more violent, Russia has greatly influenced Ukraine politicians within the state, and the Ukrainian military has been losing in fights against separatists in Ukraine. Now the UNE has placed Ukraine under martial law, overpowering any Ukraine officials and placing EFF soldiers to keep peace within the region. Now it is up to the U.N.E and her allies to decide the future of Ukraine.
RP Summary
This RP will be based on the real Ukraine crisis that is taking place. I know that depending on who you are it can be a very touchy subject but I would like to put it out as I’ve felt it has lost attention. This RP will be incorporated into later history factbooks for the UNE concerning Ukraine. The first part of the RP will be diplomatic only as ISA officials from the UNE and Vangaziland will have summits with Russian officials concerning their role in the Ukraine crisis. As the summits go on I will plan for them to go badly and result in a military campaign against Russian separatists in Ukraine. You will be able to RP as a soldier in the EFF(European Federal Forces), Vannish military, or as a soldier from your military sent in as military aid. Keep in mind this RP will be MT and any amount of soldiers you send in will be a small amount as the U.N.E. will mainly be in charge of the campaign. The military campaign's goal is to restore peace and to defeat separatists in Ukraine. This will be achieved by taking control of railways, airports, and closing any weaknesses in the Ukraine-Russia border that would allow for enemies to come in.

Rules
- No OOC posts in the IC
- The military conflict part of the RP will not start until the diplomatic section is over with and the OP gives the go
- No starting war against other nations in this RP
- No Godmodding/Meta-Gaming: This can be defined as playing your character without limitations or having your character know things they couldn't possibly know.
- Keep combat within your posts realistic
- Do not try and take the RP into your path, I don't want us working at a summit then out of nowhere someone declares war on Russia
- If your nation likes to be cozy with things such as human right offenses, then don't be surprised if I don't accept you
- If a rule comes up for combat procedure then you must follow it. We are fighting a war here but we're not trying to turn the populace away from us
- No one-liners. Try to put some work in your posts
- This RP is onesided so there will be no support for the separatists. I did this so this RP wouldn't drag on as a long war between others. I might do a second RP that follows the POV of separatist later on.
- 400 ground force soldiers max, 2 air squadrons max, and 2 tank companies max, staff needed are not included in the 400 ground force troop limit so you can have as many as you need
