Islands War

The Sarkhani-Yamatai War, commonly known as The Islands War, was a war declared by Sarkhan on Yamatai. Despite being greatly outnumbered in both size and population, Sarkhan was pretty evenly matched with Yamatai (perhaps due to volunteers such as Tomad on their side).

Causes of the War
The causes of the war are still unclear. Mingren Premier, "Agnius0super" has said that the "true casus belli is trade dispute...." (Due to both nation leaders being competitors in the enchanted book business), however Emperor IrishChild of Sarkhan has not yet revealed his reason for declaring on his northern neighbors. It is extremely likely that he only did it for fun, or because of some leftover grudge from the Muscovite War of Independence.

Prelude to the War
On the afternoon of February 16th, IrishChild offered great wealth and rewards to anyone who would "work for him as a volunteer". On the official Sarkhan discord he said "Volunteer for Sarkhan and I will give you 20 diamonds, possibly a shulker if I think you've done well" and he even went as far as offering 100 diamonds to Pussilamous. However no payments have been made as of yet.

The Razing of Nagarato
The Razing of Nagarato was by far the largest event of the war, with many Sarkhani Troops, and volunteers like Tomad, JennyBudew, and pussilamous all griefing the Yamatian capital of Nagarato. Before declaring war, Sarkhani troops had gathered outside of the Japanese capital, and already had 2 volunteers defending their capital, and as soon as war was declared they started bombing and setting fire to many buildings in Nagarato. Nagarato was completely destroyed in the fighting.

The Battle of Sarkhan
Pussilamous and keuradeurva were one of the first people to be hired by Sarkhani Emperor IrishChild, and were both ordered to stay in Sarkhan and defend it. While the Razing of Nagarato was going on, both puss and keura were just waiting for Joseon and Yamatai forces to show up, and soon after that Joseoni General HankShark showed up and the 2 volunteers worked hard to prevent him from griefing the city. Both volunteers were being killed repeatedly by HankShark, but their main goal was to prevent him from placing TNT. After about 10 minutes, Yamatai leader NotaFouton showed up at the island to reinforce the General, with the help of Nota, Hankshark was able to grief more areas. After a while, pussilamous heard in the VC that he should go to Joseon, and left keuradeurva to protect Sarkhan, and following that, all of Sarkhan was griefed.

The Conflict with Joseon & Controversial Bombing of Seoul
Soon after seeing the declaration of war on Yamatai, King Leldy of Joseon declared war on Sarkhan due to being allied with Yamatai, and after that Tomad went and burned many buildings in Seoul and the Korean capital of Pyongyang. After hearing in VC that famous war veteran Tomad needed help, pussilamous was told to go to Joseon and grief. When he arrived at Seoul, he saw that buildings were already on fire, and he proceeded to bomb some bridges and a tower. However, this upset Joseon Minister Alehks a great deal and he forced pussilamous to pay him 200 diamonds by the end of week. Having gained little from the fighting, Joseon and Sarkhan signed a white peace treaty after the bombings of Seoul and the Battle of Sarkhan. The War Between Sarkhan and Yamatai continued for the next few hours.

Aftermath
At 9:07 on February 17, Yamatai leader NotaFouton disbanded Yamatai, technically making Sarkhan the victor and marking the end of the war. As a result of Yamatai’s disbandment, many refugees have migrated to nations like Dajiang and Maracaibo. Per the peace treaty, Sarkhan claimed Japan. The war was considered to be a Pyrrhic Victory of Sarkhan, with heavy damage taken by both sides. Following this, Sarkhan would sell Japan to Imperian Japan for the sum of 4 diamonds, a move which was ridiculed by the international community, especially considering the later disbandment of Japan.
