Operation Urgent Shield I
In 2025 the European Union entered its golden age of existence. Every nation was peaceful and involved in the advancement of Europe. It was at that time that the European nations decided that it would be in their best interest to elect a single figure to govern over all nations in the European Union to better coordinate resources among each other. At first everyone thought it was a great idea, but the cold reality quickly set in that there was no way citizens would follow an official from a different country. During the course of the election numerous scandals emerged as it became obvious that countries were willing to do whatever it took to get their guy in office, even if that was by illegal means. The people of Europe became outraged with each other. The golden age that started in 2025 quickly came to an end by 2027 as each nation fought with the other over who should be in control of the European Union. Relationships quickly deteriorated with threats of violence and of secession.
Then on August 21, 2029, when the European powers were at their most delicate state, an explosion in Paris rocked the world to its core. In an instant the French president and his entire family were killed in a blatant assassination. After initial investigations all evidence pointed to the British being the ones behind the attack. Being convinced enough by the evidence the French declared war on the British, and fearing violent action, the French also preemptively struck the Germans to gain an upper hand in their inevitable involvement. After 11 long years of fighting, the war has become a war of domination, each of the three nations fighting over who would control the European mainland.
Not being able to decide who is in the right and who is in the wrong, the US and Russia decided to not get involved in the war but instead contain the war so that it doesn’t spill into any more countries.
After 11 years of fighting the Russians are growing weary as the fight continues to grow closer and closer to their border. Not having the natural defense of an ocean to work for them, the US has to help the Russians secure their borders to prevent a spill over in violence. Reports are that America has developed a very powerful weapon that could single-handedly repel any attempt of invading Russia. Nobody knows when, but each of the three warring nations knows that America will be trying to deliver this weapon to the Russians.
Join the armies of France, Germany, or Britain and show the world who the most powerful nation in Europe is!
