Only alliances that publicly declared war on GOONS during the Unjust War are listed here, though many other ~ alliances are also involved in the occupation. |
The GOONland Resistance Movement, also called The Afgoonistan War in an allusion to VietFAN, is the four month occupation-like conflict between GOONS and various ~ alliances that arose after the defeat of The Unjust Highway during the Unjust War. GOONS was uninterested in securing exit from the war and therefore found itself fighting the combined forces of ~ alone. By the end of 2007 fighting of significant scale was long since over and GOONS reduced to a six-figure total nation strength.

Hidden GOONS
After most government had ragequit or were banned, Director of GOONland Security Alastor advised remaining GOONS in November 2007 to either outright surrender and get on with their lives, or fake surrender and join the Hidden GOONS spy network. Hidden GOONS were masked at GOONS new gametramp.com forum—the forum hosted by the now-banned Error404 was destroyed in mid-November—in a "Hidden GOONerie" forum, where each agent could view only his own subforum where he/she could submit reports, and posts to all agents made by GOONS gov (Sarafina, Alastor, jazzi (not to be confused with jazzy) and later House Mouse Sleepy/Sreepy) in the top-level Hidden GOONerie. Hidden GOONS numbered in the hundreds, but quickly dwindled as the 9-month GOONland Resistance wore on.
