Operation Gambit, the opening moves...
The year of 1936 has barely begun, and australia decides they do not want to live under british yoke anymore. They break out of the commonwealth allies to further underline their independence. The world watched with more than moderate interest to see if other commonwealth nations would follow the example, but none did. However, this was but the first fracture in the mightiest alliance on earth...
The Comité for international independence saw this as a great opportunity to further strengthen their alliance as we have seen russia yielding in to the territorial claims romania has on bessarabia. Surely Bessarabian Romanians must be glad to return to their homeland now...
This in turn was seen as an example by Serbia, as they tried the same on their former oppressors, the Ottoman Empire. The sultan decided improving their relationship with serbia might be a good idea to defend himself against austria and the comité. So he yielded to the territorials claims too.
Meanwhile, on the other end of the world, in south america, tensions were rising to new hights, as two of the smaller nations on the continent clashed with eachother in a brutal jungle war.
Who would get the upper hand in this bloody conflict? only time will tell...
