GOONS-CSA War

The GOONS-CSA is an ongoing conflict between the Goon Order of Oppression Negligence and Sadism and the Confederate States of America micro-alliance. It could also be argued that another 3-member micro-alliance bearing the name of disbanded alliance SSSW18 is also involved, as the aiding of their largest nation (who is also at war with GOONS) is half of the reason this war came to start.

The public declaration of war was made on 8 April 2010, stating this simple reasoning:

"Two EoG's were aided by Spudtech. Diplomatic talks with the nation and his alliance failed to reach a satisfactory conclusion."

The two "EoG's" (Enemies of GOONS) were identified, by linkage to Spudtech's aid history screen, as tibbar of tibbar land (who bears the SSSW18 alliance affiliation even though the alliance merged into IAA half a year earlier) and RUKUNU of Fordlandia (Goon Order of Neutral Shoving). Both nations were already in a war campaign against GOONS, although the former had only been at it since the end of March, apparently in retaliation for an earlier GOONS attack on a ruler on his alliance affiliation.

The reaction to the initial declaration was mixed, ranging from positive reception to outright condemnation. Critics of the declaration pointed out the definitive size advantage GOONS had in this conflict, while supporters attributed the war to a lack of diplomacy from CSA. On top of this, Spudtech, the instigator of this particular incident, received some criticism for leaving the "The Confederate States Of America" AA and ghosting the New Polar Order.
