In the year 1850+, the Industrial Revolution had finally ended its long era of constant innovation. Cities seemed closer than ever, thanks to steam-powered vehicles capable of traversing land, sea, and air.
Of course, with every civilian advancement came military adaptation. By 1935+, humanity had seemingly mastered every means of travel across the earth.
The unforgiving power of tracked vehicles and the rise of bi and multi-pedal iron beasts called mechs had become the backbone of every strong military. Diesel-powered aircraft had also become commonplace, with each nation exploiting their versatility for logistics, bombing long-distance targets, and air support for their ground forces.
As the years progressed, it became clear that the peace we were experiencing was nothing more than a facade, perhaps even a premonition. With powerful militaries left unchecked and new resources being discovered across the Americas, Europe, and Asia, everyone wanted a piece of the pie.
By the year 1939+ The Kaiserreich of Germania, led by its Fuhrer, Kaiser Friedrich von Drachenfels, launched a decisive attack against the Gallic Republic to its direct west. Unprovoked, without warning, without haste, and without mercy.
Its Premier, HenriDuval, had rang the bells of aggression-letting the world know of Germania's unlawful aggression. The Dominion of America, Grand British Dominion, and the Northern Ruskia Union heeded their call. Quickly declaring war against Drachenfels.
This, however, only expanded the outreach of the war, for Germania isn't alone. Raising its banner to pursue their goal of world domination, The Italian Confederacy and the Imperial Shogunate of the Rising Sun flown their banner besides the Kaiserreich
The great war had begun.
