The Pultria Crisis was a major geopolitical crisis caused by the expansionist policies of Pultria and the First Icesteel Empire. It began when Pultria declared war on Synbio on June 28th, and ended with the Battle of Petroselinum.
Background
The Lost Wood Incident and Synbio's Dissolution
On June 28 at 12:55 AM CST, Gwen127 from the town of Lost Wind in Synbio posted a photo of graves created for the "victims of slavery" of Pultria that died under King chickenprism's rule. However, because neither Gwen nor chickenprism clarified that the "slaves" were actually chickens, the other leaders of Alathra believed that the slaves were other players, causing a public outrage against chickenprism. As the day wore on, accusations flew with chickenprism charging Gwen127 with intentionally slandering Pultria and even sending death threats, though none of these claims were substantiated.
Nonetheless, these tensions came to a head when chickenprism declared war on Lost Wind at 1:15 AM CST. However, in order to deny Pultria of a war, at 4:23 PM CST, Gwen127 decided to disband Lost Wind, and with ConacoGaming and NaaMannnn's help, disbanded the nation of Synbio altogether to join the FCA. Furious, King chickenprism marched to Lost Wind At 9:15 PM CST to demand that the FCA hand over the town. In order to deter chickenprism, Prime Minister spiceymonkey1349 led a detachment of Uhovian knights to Lost Wind while CoolGummyBear of Redwood set up an outpost to deny chickenprism access to the town's supplies. After a lengthy standoff between spiceymonkey1349 and chickenprism, the FCA's Chancellor Cody29797 arrived and entered into a private conference with King chickenprism.
There, the two parties reached a compromise: King chickenprism would give up his claim of Lost Wind in exchange for being allowed to build an outpost on a nearby hill to the south. Cody would likewise build an outpost near Savage Crow, the capital of Pultria. While this compromise helped to avoid open conflict, the stage was set for a clash between the two nations.
The Petroselinum Compact
On June 29, Emperor AlphaSpade of the First Icesteel Empire declared his intent to annex the island nation of Petroselinum in order to extend his empire to the western coast. Initially, King chickenprism threatened to "eradicate the Icesteel Empire with the force of a thousand suns" for laying claim to Petroselinum, but soon changed his mind and convinced AlphaSpade to merge the Icesteel Empire with Pultria and to conquer the island together.
