The Terror was the third-bloodiest conflict in American history with only the mass-slaughter of the American Civil War and the long trudge of the Goa'uld War killing more Americans. The Terror raged across the Deep South of the United States from the Battle of Earth to the late 1970's when the American Worker's Party managed to secure the end goals with the Second Constitution of the United States of America. The Terror had two major antagonists the Ku Klux Klan and the Black Panthers both brutal groups that coated themselves in the blood of their enemies. The Black Panthers had been formed after the Battle of Earth and first struck in Atlanta in late 1936. The strike had failed and led to a harsh crackdown on the local black population radicalizing allowing the Black Panthers to grow and strike against the white dominance of the Deep South. Against them against stood the Ku Klux Klan a organization that been founded following the American Civil War been crushed by President Ulysses S. Grant. The organization had been reborn in 1915 and spread across the nation when the Terror came they struck against the Black Panthers wherever they could find. The conflict that raged between the two across both the cities and wilds of the Deep South was notoriously brutal. Whenever the Ku Klux Klan won they burnt the corpses of the Black Panthers alive on their crosses and several times they did with it still alive Black Panthers which only added to the brutality of the Ku Klux Klan. The Black Panthers were just as brutal with their usual tactic being hanging the Klansmen from a tree and beat them to death with metal bats though there was also there brutal actions towards local politicians. For example, the murder of Storm Thurmond in 1958 when they beat down the doors of his house dragged him outside then flayed him alive, placed him in red hot chains and hanging him upside down from a tree using his lower intestine. The Black Panthers and the Ku Klux Klan were blood-crazed maniacs that caused brutal un-hinged slaughter. Yes, Jim Crow was horrible, and the black population of America should have fought against it but not though terror. The Ku Klux Klan was established purely to keep down the Black population of the United States of America. Neither side was in the right and the only people who lost was the people of America.

One of the greatest cultural influences of the Goa'uld War in eastern Europe is often regarded to be the movie Armata de Strigoi a work depicting an alternate history of Vlad the Impaler's war against the Ottoman Empire. The movie depicted Vlad succumbing to a mysterious virus that leads to him becoming a Strigoi. The movie was the first to have a main star from a non-human race with the Strigoi actor Decebalus Ionescu playing the Romanian hero. The movie was criticised for its extreme violence with the scene of Vlad the Impaler impaling the entire Imperial family following the fall of Constantinople was particularly disturbing to some especially when he drunk the blood of Sultan Mehmed II from his neck but that only adds to the horror. The movie was one of the greatest successes of Romanian culture ever with the film still being shown today especially with its cutting-edge special effects and coloured film. To the wider world the film was a brutal horror fest to Romania and their neighbours it was a tragedy on scale with Hamlet as Vlad struggled against his monstrous urges before succumbing to save his nation.
To best explain the films cultural impact we must look at the slate of films that emerged from Eastern Europe over the next few decades from Russia there were several including the Deamons of the Ice about Alexander Nevsky, the Eternal Tsar about the Time of Troubles, the Wolf of the North about Tsar Rurik, in Poland there was the Winged King about John III Sobieski, the Soldiers of the Night about the Battle of Warsaw and countless others. These films all took Alternate History and combined them with mysticism to create thrilling storylines and brutal battles as demons and angles clashed during the Siege of Vienna or Tsarevich Dmitry returning from the dead and ruling over Russia for the rest of time. This genre has often been very Eastern European though it has a large following in Scandinavia and the United Empire. Back to the topic with the style of film that Armata De Strigoi pioneered was so popular in Eastern Europe that is fundamentally changed their culture with the rebirth of Slavic paganism following the success of Deamons of the Ice which definitely impacts Russia today.

As the allies tore through the ancient core of the Goa'uld Empire towards Dakara they found less and less resistance as the Goa'uld withdrew to defend their lord and master Anubis. He had withdrawn to Dakara where he ordered that Dakara be fortified as much as possible meanwhile he withdrew into the Dakara Temple where he spent the next week getting into the chamber holding the superweapon he sought. As he worked experimenting with the most minute changes in order for it to not kill him accidentally the allies arrived in orbit and unleashed their wrath on the defences that the Goa'uld had raised. The bombardment was harsh but after a day of sheer and utter hell for the Jaffa around the allies began to land.
Led by IIET-1 and the Black Watch they quickly established a perimeter to the north of the Dakara Temple allowing the allies to establish a permanent foothold on the planet and then they began to strike south. They met heavy Jaffa resistance but Bra'tac had told them of the importance of the Dakara temple and it was vital that it was captured by the allies so they pushed though the Jaffa for three weeks and by the 8th of April they were shelling the flank of the mountain in which the Dakara Temple lay. The final battle was fast approaching.
