In 1999 the Ulysses 1994XF04 asteroid fell on the Earth causing massive damage to various countries on multiple continents, causing a humanitarian crisis that triggered multiple armed conflicts. One such conflict was on the continent of Anea, which consisted the nations of Nordennavic, Emmeria, and Estovakia. Emmeria sustained itself thanks to an underground shelter network that protected most of its citizens. Estovakia however suffered the most and the nation saw severe damage to its infrastructure and economy, and fell into a civil war. The war ended as a military government being established in Estovakia, led by "The Generals". After the war, the federation was restored and an era of peace took place, however Estovakia troubles did not subside. Over the period of peace "The Generals" built up Estovakia's military to unprecedented heights, and on August 30, 2015, Estovakia began attacking its neighbor Emmeria.
