Grand Mexican War

Prelude
In 2068, the nations of North Mexico, North American Commonwealth, and California orchestrated the collapse of the Navajo Union when Mexico refused to renew a lease on. Failure to renew the lease lead to the collapse of Navajo economy. The three nations then supported the revolutionary leader, Ernesto Espada as he established the Southwest Socialist Republic.

The four nations sought to eliminate hostile nations and replace them with friendly ones. In 2080, a similar collapse within the Caribou Federation permitted Espada to influence another revolution leading to the formation of the Northwest Socialist Republic. On December 25, 2080, the North American Commonwealth annexed Las Islas Bellas and established new maritime borders. These new borders greatly weakened the economy of Tikal and its trading partners. The other nations of North America already identified the threat to their existence and had prepared for an eventual war. Tikal declared war on North Mexico on January 16, 2081.
