Slavic-Egyptian War

The Slavic-Egyptian War was a conflict that took place on the 29th of November 2020. The conflict arose from disputes over Owning's leadership of the Balkans, as the Egyptians sought to install democracy to the empire. Although the number of combatants was relatively low (only 5 at its peak) the massive size of the nations involved turned this war into one of the most destructive the server has ever seen, as multiple cities were completely razed to the ground in fighting that took place as far north as Nevingrad and as far south as Cairo, along with every settlement that existed in-between.

The actual fighting mirrored that seen in the Indonesian-Northern European War. The Slavic Empire had overwhelming numbers compared to the Egyptians, being potentially able to muster a force several times their number. It would have taken them time to muster all of these players, however, and against the advice of other players on the server at the time, the small group of Slavic players online did not log off and regroup, choosing to fight the Egyptians head on. This turned a war where they outnumbered their enemy into a battle where their enemy outnumbered them, and just as with the Northern Europeans before them, it was to be their fatal flaw. The Egyptians destroyed every city they came across, as the defenders were unable to put up a fight against the attackers, Bulgaria and Neva seceded from the empire, with Bulgaria becoming an Egyptian vassal state and the it seems the empire is destined to collapse. Minor damage was dealt to Egypt, but overall the war still remains a decisive victory.
