Tech Raid Gone Wrong[]
After proposing a white peace with the DD alliance after an unprovoked FOK attack, the DD alliance decided to reject white peace and defend their ally from the FOK nations. FOK responded by attacking DD. This attack was sanctioned as being 'Some little education', hence the 'Educational War'.
Casus belli[]
A FOK nation tech raiding an unalligned nation was met with retaliation by Mommyann, a nation from the Dirty Dozen alliance after the attacking nation had refused to offer peace. Another FOK nation, eager to protect his friend, responded by counter-attacking Mommyann. Despite the fact that this was a rogue attack by a FOK nation upon an ally of the Dirty Dozen, no reparations were promised and Mommyann was even threatened should she retaliate. When Mommyann did choose to retaliate against her rogue, unsanctioned attacker, she was hit by 2 more FOK members.
In negotiations between FOK and Dirty Dozen, (represented by Morath), the two sides agreed to a white peace on a conditional basis, pending the approval of Mommyann upon her return from a RL absence.
Instead of accepting the peace offer of the FOK nation, Mommyann continued to retaliate against the unprovoked attack. Mommyann had felt that reparations should have been paid. FOK responded with additional counter-attacks.
