Military Command of the New Pacific Order

Military Command
A core duty of the New Pacific Order, every Pacifican should become familiar with this branch upon graduation of the Imperial Academy.

Military Command are the people who organise the NPO's war and military efforts, leading NPO Battalions into war, and preparing its defenses against any threat that dares to rise. Battalion NCOs and Lietuenants are soldiers first point of contact within the military when a situation arises. Lieutenants and NCOs are there for a reason - to lead and help members.

Members are invited by top ranking officials of Military Command to be a part of them when they display the necessary skill, determination, and responsibility to take on the role of an NCO or Lieutenant. Such invitations are based on an intense monitoring of overall behaviour, working ethic, military skills, leadership skills, will, and ability to take responsibility. Being "alright", "ok", "good" or anything the like isn't enough to receive the enormous honor to receive what is one of the greatest awards in the game: an invitation to become on of the leading persons who make the military backbone of Pacifica what it is today. This honor is not received by many and not many deserve it. Wielding the power of a Pacifican Lieutenant is not to be taken lightly.

The NPO's War Machine has ravaged many alliances and has yet to truly face defeat. Many have tried to mimic the success of the Pacific Army, but none have succeeded or even come close to the might that is the Military of the New Pacific Order.

Disputed Outcome of the Great Patriotic War
The outcome of The Great Patriotic War is disputed. Some argue the NPO suffered a defeat, as peace was achieved with an apology from the Order. Other consider GW1 a stalemate, especially members of the New Pacific Order itself. A quote from New Pacific Order member Z'ha'dum explains their reasoning:


 * "It absolutely was a stalemate. The entire world fought us, they demanded we disband, they demanded we pay reps, they demanded we accept a Viceroy, they demanded all manner of terms and the NPO fought back. In the end, the only "victory" they got out of the NPO was something that cost the NPO nothing. When tallying up the war gains and losses, you cannot put an apology down in the gains column. Furthermore, we did a hell of a lot more damage than we took. We never fell lower in the ranks than any of the CoaLUEition. Legion only was above us for a couple weeks meaning our repair mechanisms were clearly left virtually untouched by the war leaving us in a good strategic position. If the end of the war cost us nothing and gained them nothing, it was a draw, or a stalemate."

Disputed Outcome of the GATO 1V war
There was a great amount of dispute over the actions of this war, especially elements such as the Peace Doctrine actions by the NPO against the ‘No Vision’ forces, but none more so than the outcome of the war.

Several months after the end of the war on Dec 14 2008 at 02:37 PM, NPO member Vladimir posted a topic in the Cybernations Official Forums entitled "The Great Patriotic War and You", which outlined how the NPO and NpO won the Great Patriotic war despite being completely crushed militarily due to their only goals being the alliances’ survival.

It was not long before the GATO-1V war was brought to mention along with several others as the defending alliance’s only goal was it’s survival and to prevent itself being forced to disband.

In short, based upon the words of a high ranking member of the New Pacific Order, despite being militarily crushed and both outnumbered more than two to one, and outgunned more than eight to one in terms of nuclear weapons and nation strength, along with it’s eventual surrender and submission to the NPO, No Vision arguably won it’s war with the forces of One Vision.

Making GATO, IAA, USN and CSN one of the few alliances to be involved in the defeat of the so called ‘Pacifican War Machine.’

In addition to this, the NPO refused repeatedly to acknowledge the surrender of GATO and it’s allies for months on end and both it and it’s allies continued to bombard the few hundred nations day after day in a clear attempt to wipe out the alliance. With the survival of GATO, by the same definition as quoted from Za’Ha’Dum No Vision won the GATO-1V war.
