OOC: Here is what I have written up so far. Please point out if I missed anything.
- A earlier bombing campaign by the nations of Starblaydia and Abbatoir that threw the country of Latao into chaos had cast a question mark of the the peace of the Southern Atlantian Oceania region. However, due to the control of the Starblaydi forces, especially its the Starblaydi Navy, the war did not spread, and instead the Latao assigned a new President, Mr. Fronz Van Papen. The early signs were promising, as the new Latin government began making a push towards stabilizing relationships with its prior enemies, including Nedalia. At the time, there was official state of no contact by the two countries because of Latao involvement in the Battle of the Southern Islands. The first talks between the nations involved discussing Latao and its future were held in Kafra, and they went well.
However, things started taking a turn for the worse. With the second round of talks around the corner, dubbed Kafra 2005 by Latin officials, the language from Latao started to sound discouraging. The rumbling over the Starblaydi Navy being so close to Latin waters became and issue for the government, and even led to minor threats being made. The main issue at hand, however, was the discovery that there was Lamonian nuclear warheads in the hands of the rogue opposition deep in the mountains of Latao. The Nedalian government wasted no time making it clear to Van Papen that they would not tolerate rogue nuclear warheads on Latin soils, but the Latin government did nothing to act upon the new threat. Pressure came from Starblaydia and Lamoni, but again, Latao failed to act. Fearing for its national security, Nedalia looked to Starblaydia for help.
Upon request, Starblaydia sent its technicians and engineers to set up a defence against nuclear strikes in Nedalia, after which they began devising a plan of their own. Once Latao declared that they were suing Starblaydia for its "crimes" against their country, it became obvious that nothing had changed from the old regime. Lamoni volunteered to host the talks after Nedalia suspended Kafra 2005, but there would be little talking done. While Latao were given the impression that they were going to receive money from Starblaydia for the so-called crimes, Starblaydia had other plans. Their patience had been completely worn out, and their actions at the talks showed. Instead of carrying money to the meeting, they carried automatic weapons, which were promptly fired at the entire Latin delegation, reportedly killing all of them. At the same time, Nedalia, Lamoni, and Khazaron were preparing their invasion against Latao, whose leaders fled the country once they heard of the oncoming attacks against their country.
