Year 3039, the entire world has fallen into war. The previous wars had mainly 2 sides. In the first, Central and Allies, in the second Axis and Allies. Now in the third, every country is on its own. Everyone is harmed, military or civilian.
Except for one country, who remains neutral, the safest place in the world, where life remains to be going smoothly...
Chapter 1: The Beginning
~Year 3039~
The news in every part of the world is always about financial, economical problems, grudges and misunderstandings between nations. For years more problems came, until almost no country can negotiate or solve these things. They all fell into war.
"As a result of being impatient and too many problems, war has been declared on all nations by their fellow nations. Meaning, no one has an ally on their side." The news reporter said.
"All nations daw" said Philippines, as being the only country to be in good condition. I can't believe they just declare war like that. I don't want this war to be even worse than the last one (World War 2), there are just too many painful memories there."
Two years have passed and many people have suffered and died, the countries are in bad conditions. Under the circumstances, Philippines remains to be neutral, life going on as it should be.
Year 3041
"Finally! Today's a Saturday and this time, I'm just going to rest and get some sleep" Philippines said while dropping on her bed.
*ring ring*
"Hello"
"Philippines!"
"A-America? What makes you call?"
"You're okay right? Could you please dispatch us 10,000 soldiers?"
"WHAT?! ARE YOU CRAZY? "
"We desperately need military men here. We're losing here you know. "
"I really want to help you but-"
"BUT WHAT? ''
"I can't"
"WHY?! I thought you were my friend."
"Yes you are but first, I made a promise to remain silent and neutral. Second, I'm a small country and if I join the war my people die and third, well…. Uhm… Sorry America I just can't."
"Well then, you're not my friend anymore and if you need help I won't help you. Good bye"
At least I didn't tell him what my third reason is. And that "you won't be my friend anymore" is just childish!
But what she had in mind was a plan, a dangerous one indeed. The countries are getting weaker by time,
I should help them somehow…
*knock knock*
"Who is there?"
"Piri-tan!"
"Oh, It's you Manila, come in, I'll make some coffee for you."
Manila is the capital city of the Philippines. It contains many important buildings, places and other things. Intramuros, one of the most important historical sites, the Malacañang Palace, official residence and office of the President and more.
Manila went into the sala* hurriedly and excitedly and she almost tripped on the way.
"So what's the news? Were you able to send back all the **OFWs? "Philippines said, placing the coffee mug on the table.
"Yep! And guess what? We were able to pay our debt! We're not pressured now!"
Pressured… since when were we so pressured, compared to the others, filled and drunk with problems…
