Cold War (Earth World)

EW7 Cold War -
After the annexation of Starym into the Aragan Empire, leaders in the Reichstag discussed incorporating France into the Empire. This discussion was widely unpopular in the Pan American Union as they feared Araga would come after them next. The Pan American Union stated that they would guarantee French independence which worsen Aragan-Pan American relations. Araga considered taking more peaceful route by sending diplomats, however this only worried France as they thought an invasion was about to commence. The PAU later claimed Iroth and La Plata as their own to secure their hegemony over the Americas although these were allegedly owned by Araga after the annexation of Starym. Pan American flags were set up in La Plata, removing the old Aragan and Starymglian flags. The disputes angered the Aragans which provoked a massive raid on Portola, the capital of the PAU. In retaliation of the looting, the PAU killed all of the sheep in the Minsk which was a newly built industrial city in the Empire.

A Reichstag meeting was announced to discuss future plans of incorporating France, people discussed declaring war while others discussed peace in the region. Players in Araga which supported war were TheCambrian, FedexMC and Pibb. Pro-war side stated an invasion of France and the PAU would be swift as both nations were still recovering after previous conflicts in EW6 and were still working on reconstruction. Players in Araga which were against war were Tomad, The_Ohioan and GreenThePear. Anti-war side stated that if Araga invaded the PAU, it would eventually develop into a guerilla war as war rules at the time were almost non-existent and every city in the world would be demolished.

The Cold War in EW7 arguably killed off activity of the server as members from the Pan American side didn't get online in fear of Araga declaring war. EW7 would later end without any war between the two super powers, which marked the unclimactic end of the EW series.
