Tensions between the Autocrats and the Democratic Socialists have risen to its extremes recently, with media whitewashing information on both sides. Not to say of course, that tensions between the differing ideologies have ever decreased. The world keeps spinning, and nationalistic fervor drives countries into chaos, revolution, and strife.
Thus, the 2nd Argisian Civil War broke out. A dispute between quarrelling international authorities; head-on. The war was primarily fought between the NATO-bloc Coalition and the Communist-bloc Coalition. The Pan-Asiatic States immediately intervened to fight the Capitalist NATO-bloc and spread International Socialism to ARGIS, whilst New Doltania fought for the NATO-bloc. Facing heavy resistance, the Pan-Asiatic States called for their allies, near and far. The tide of war soon shifted into the Communist-bloc's favor as Eterna City was reduced to rubble.
On the verge of invasion from all surrounding frontiers, the NATO-bloc was forced to withdraw; and sign the Treaty of Reaudinas. The Communists demanded partitions of land, which could result in compromising the already fragile NATO economy. After several negotiations, Andsed; a NATO-bloc power, decided to pay for war-reparations and ratify a modified treaty, thus resulting in their Neutral state in order to fulfill current obligations to the Treaty.
With New Doltanian officials angry at the humiliating defeat of the NATO-bloc, members of the public have reason to believe that the declaration of war served to avenge the fallen NATO-bloc. New Doltania, a global superpower who was late to interfere; is speculated to have conspired false rumors against the Pan-Asiatic States. The States have remained to claim that they have unprovokingly been declared war on, and refuses to admit any of the given accusations placed on them. Nonetheless, the Northern autocracy of New Doltania has declared war on the Pan-Asiatic States. The War of the Azure has begun.
