EPISODE I

There was great unrest on the planet of Armythia.  The six major nations on the continent of Beyfor had been competing to create empires by taking over many of the smaller and weaker areas of Armythia.  They turned these areas into colonies and exploited the natural resources to help build their empires.  

An especially strong rivalry developed between Morovia and Yorkton that centered around the Great Forest Region on their borders.  

Yorkton was also involved in a major disagreement with Penland over the mouth of the Makeshift River.  Yorkton currently maintains control over the area.

Bahkan is a new nation.  It had once been part of Penland, but had gained its independence peacefully under Penland's previous government.  Penland's new government wants to regain control over Bahkan but the Penlandian government has taken no action in taking Bahkan back as of yet.

A small nationalistic group in Penland has developed and is demanding that the government retake Bahkan.  It is suspected that this group has been leading border raids against Bahkan.

Caldonia has been somewhat successful in keeping out of some of the disagreements because their nation is an island that is isolated from the other nations by water.  

It is common knowledge that Penland has the most powerful army on the continent of Beyfor and Caldonia is the strongest naval power.

Fearing war and take over, the nations of Beyfor begin forming alliances to help themselves.  This fear is fueled by the Newspaper tycoons in each of the six nations that have been carrying on fueds with each other.  Their fued turns the nations' fear into hate.

Each nation in Beyfor is extremely nationalistic.  Citizens feeling such pride for their own nations, they give complete power to their government officals, along with their undying support and their unwavering loyalty.  

Fear and hatred between nations fueled an arms race where nations competed to build the strongest militaries with the most advanced and most destructive weapons.

Sandia is troubled by domestic unrest and the government is no onger stable.  Unemployed workers and peasants are banning together and planning a revolution.

Greed, tension, fear, and hate have engulfed the planet like a heavy gas.  It would only take one wrong move...one wrong action... to spark a brutal, devastaing, and catastrophic war!
