Redosian Empire

I was playing the game Hex Empire and I won, by using a nation called Redosia, on map No. 151688. So, I have decided to write a novel, involving characters, and the events, over the course of this war. And after it, way after it.

'''Dislclaimer: This is based on my victory in the game, and by my imaginations of events, causes, and conclusions. It does not mean to intrude on the copyright to any material in the game, only for the entertainment of the reading public at this wikia.'''

Formation of Redosia
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, a array of 15 new countries came into existence. Emerging from these was Russia, which had formed the main component and dominant territory of the Soviet Union, and thus became the most powerful of the new countries. Russia depised it's surronding territories, once ruled by the Russians under their Empire and the Soviet Union. To counter this, Russia established bases in other countries, mainly the ones surrounding them, placed economic and military embargoes against most of it's neighbors, and helped provoke civil conflict and economic depression within it's neighbors. Russia also started secretly funneling Bin Laden's Al-Qaeda with money, soldiers, and weapons, and encouraged Iran and North Korea (but secretly), to voice hostlity against the United States.

At this time, Egypt in Africa increasingly became hostile towards Israel, cutting it off from trade in the Red Sea and supporting Palestanian insurgents. Thus the stage was set: North Korea would be the core for the future Bluegaria, the United States would form the core for the future Violetnam, Russia would form the core of Redosia, and Egypt would form the core for Greenland.

Soon, Europe and Russia started growing close together. In May 2008, the Treaty of Lisbon was signed, uniting Europe into one single entity. Europe then signed a general trading agreement with Russia, and they developed a military pact. These steps improved and even encouraged further their relationship.

On 14 June 2009, a conference between Europe and Russia proposed a aboslute unification, and, for a sense of creativity and of a new meaning, suggested the name Redosia, after the old British colony of Rhodesia. The proposal was apporved, and negoitations began, with repersenatives appointed by the King of Europe and the President of Russia. The Acts of Union was proposed, and laid out the following terms:


 * On 1 January 2010, the Kingdom of Europe and the Federation of Russia were to be merged and united into one entity, styled The Kingdom of Redosia, and the King of Europe (William I) would become the first King of Redosia, reigning with aboslute power. London would be Redosia's capital.


 * The flag of the Kingdom, it's currency, navy and army organization, and ensigns, are to be determined by the King through Royal Decree.


 * The King is to be advised by a Supreme Consulatory, consisting of 20 members, appointed and dismissed by the king at will. It would grant taxes, organize the budget, fund, discpline, and organize the military, and pass laws. The king could propose, push through, or veto laws, which would be proposed and debated in his name. The king would also call and dissolve the Consulatory at will.


 * The King would be head of state, with the powers over the Consulatory and final say and proposal over laws, the power to issue royal decrees, proclamations, orders, edicts, resolutions, and reports, supreme command over the armed forces, and aboslute say over government expenditures and apporval of the budget.

After the repersenatives signed the Act on 24 July, the Act was submitted to the King of Europe and his Council for apporval. The King's Council apporved the Act on 28 July, and the King granted it the Royal Accent on 30 July. On 5 August, the Council of Russia ratified the Act, 50-20. On 18 August, the State Duma apporved the Act 407-100. The President of Russia signed the Act on 1 September.

On 3 September, the Russian Parilament dissolved and transfered state power to the President. President Medevev then issued a Special Ukase that suspended the State Constitution and insistuted a state of emergency that would serve as a bridge of transition.

Europe and Russia immediately sought recognition of their new country, Redosia, before 1 January. The United Nations Security Council issued a resolution granting recognition on 8 September, thanks in part to Russia and Europes' seats on the Council. Most of the worlds' nations, with the notable exception of the new Bluegaria, granted recognition by 18 December.

On 1 January 2010, the Redosian flag was raised for the first time, Russia and Europe ceased to exist, and a new world power came into force. William I of Europe became King William I of Redosia, while President Dmitri Medevev of Russia became Prime Minister Dmitri Medevev of Redosia.

Formation of Bluegaria
On 5 June 2009, North Korea's Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces and Most Dear Leader, Kim Jong II, proclaimed the existence of the Kingdom of Bluegaria, naming himself James I of Bluegaria, to make himself sound English, and to honor himself. He confirmed himself of a English sucessor by taking a American baby boy as his own son. The new James I seeked out recognition of North Korea's transformation into Bluegaria from the United Nations. Despite heavy debating, the UN apporved the existence of Bluegaria on 11 July.

Unlike the soon-to-be Redosia, James I did not issue a sort of Constitution or at least general code of law, instead declaring he ruled by decree, as aboslute administrator and commander of the armed forces. He did however, begin a program of massive military expansion. On 8 June, Iran merged into the still-small Bluegaria, thus giving James I control of the world's second largest oil reserves, plus a large proportion of new subjects. By 1 January, a wave of fear had caused China, India, Bandgladesh, South Korea, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Bhutan, Nepal, and Pakistan to merge with Bluegaria, thus making it the world's most populous country. In September, Iraq, Qatar, the United Emirates, Yemen, Oman, and Bahrain were occupied with no opposition by Bluegaria.

Formation of Violetnam
To counter the threat of Bluegaria, the President of the United States, Barrack Obama, negoitated a deal with Canada and Mexico over aboslute unification. Obama and Mexico proposed a republic, but Canada advocated a monarchy, and won support from Europe for this stance. As a compromise, the Terms of Union was signed on 4 September 2009, between repersenatives of Mexico, Canada, and America.

Terms were:


 * On 12 December, the Kingdom of Violetnam would be proclaimed, as a creativity from the Vietnam War, combined with the word Violet. The President of the United States, Barrack Obama, would become Barrack I, King of Violetnam.


 * All ensigns, flags, the currency, and military organization would be determined by the King through Executive Decree.


 * As compensation to the American ideals of liberty and freedom, a set of rights are guranteed for Violetnam's people. Also, a Violentian Congress would become the supreme legislative body, consisting of two houses, a House of Lords, appointed and dismissed by the king at will, and a House of Commonalites, elected from among two hundred districts by direct and popular ballot. The Congress would grant and levy taxes, excrises, and imposts, organize, fund, and discpline the military, coin money and declare weights and measures, supervise the government, and the power to apporve budgets. The Lords would apporve finanically-oriented bills, apporve the budget, coin money and declare weights and measures, and apporve appointments made by the king. The Commonalities would levy taxes, handle military affairs, supervise government actions, and hold levy of veto over the king.


 * The King of Violetnam would be head of state and chief executive, honored in prestige. The king would issue executive decrees, orders, edicts, and laws, (with the signature of his prime minister), declare war and make peace, sign or make treaties, appoint and dismiss government officals (with the apporval of the Lords), grant honors and awards, organize the budget (with apporval laid by the Lords), and sign all Congressional statues and laws. The king could veto or return Congressional statues or laws, which the Commonalities can overide by a two-thirds majority. The king would also lay out congressional agenda, and call and dissolve the parilament in emergency matters and special elections.


 * The king's prime minister would run the government day to day and propose Violentian policies in Congress. His signature would be needed for Executive Decrees issued by the king.

After the Terms were signed by the Delegates, they were submitted to the Canadian Parilament for apporval. The Canadian Senate ratified the Terms on 5 September, followed by the House of Commons on 7 September. The Governor-General, Michelle Jean, granted the Act Royal Assent in the name of the King of Canada on 10 September. The Terms were then submitted to the United States Congress. The Senate apporved the act, 69-31, on 13 September. The House of Repersenatives apporved the act on 15 September, by a margin of 300-100. The President of the United States signed the Act on 18 September. Mexico's president granted the Terms apporval on 20 September, which was confirmed by the Mexican Congress on 24 September.

On 12 December, Washington D.C. became Violetnam City, the Violentian flag was hoisted in the US, Mexico, and Canada, and Barrack Obama became Barrack I. The United Nations granted Violetnam recognition on 14 December. On 23 December, the Organization of American States dissolved, and their remaining member countries (all of the Americas outside of Violetnam) were absorbed by the new Violetnam.

Formation of Greenland
In Africa, the African population was considering seriously at the thought of being one. In July 2009, the African countries had signed a general military and customs union. Egypt also began a colonization of Greenland, by now abandoned by Denmark. It also established scientific posts all over Antartica, and leased bases in Nunvaut.

Eventually, a proposal of aboslute unification for Africa, Greenland, Antartica, and the bases in Nunvavut was proposed by President of South Africa Jacob Zuma. He realized a kingdom was needed for this unity. The parilaments of Africa apporved and a delegation met from 1 August-1 September 2009.

Finally, the African and Greenlandian Treaty was signed, by repersenatives of each African country and settlers in Antartica and Greenland, and of the bases in Nunvaut:


 * Henceforth, on 1 January 2010 (considing with the founding of Redosia), the Settlements of Greenland, the Settlements of Antartica, the bases in Nunvaut, and all Africa, would be united into one entity known as the Kingdom of Greenland.


 * The flag, ensigns, military organization, and currency would be determined by the King through Executive Decree.


 * The King of Greenland was to be a person, elected every four years, by the popular vote of the people, through direct ballot. Jacob Zuma would become Jacob I, King of Greenland, and he would be up for election in 2014. The King would call and dissolve his Council at will, lay out parilamentary agenda, issue executive decrees, edicts, orders, and proclamations, command the military, propose and organize the budget, and grant companies.


 * The Greenlandian Council would consist of 52 members, one elected from each of the 52 divisions of Greenland (the 50 former countries in Africa, Greenland, and Antartica). The Council would levy and grant taxes, apporve the budget, pass laws, and fund the military. The Council would be called and dissolved by the king at will, who would also decide where and when it will meet, and what it will discuss. All laws passed by the Council require the Royal Accent of the King. If the King witholds Royal Assent, the Bill does not become law. The King can also delay accent or change parts of the bill to his liking.

Misgivings were given by African countries, including Egypt and South Africa, about the naming of this new union Greenland. However, when Nelson Mandela and even Al-Qadalfi of Libya expressed their support for the Treaty, popular support was boosted and all African countries had apporved the Treaty by 1 December.

On 1 January, a month after the final ratification of the Treaty, all African flags were lowered, and the new Greenladian flag was raised. Jacob Zuma became King Jacob I and the Kingdom of Greenland came into being. The UN recognized the new Greenland on 3 January. On 8 January, Greenland secured control of Jordan and Saudi Arabia by the Treaty of Beriut.

Bluegaria instigates War
With control of vast land, Bluegaria launched a invasion of the Central Asian lands, alarming the new Redosia (4 January 2010). Redosia immediately moblizied troops to it's southernmost border and switfly occupied Mongolia, but allowed James I to take over Central Asia.

James I then set his eyes on Azerbajan, Georgia, and Armenia, wanting them as soon as possible. A invasion force of 600,000 was grouped, with 1,000 tanks and 500 machine guns, on the Bluegarian border with Azerbajan. Azerbajan, Georgia, and Armenia all asked Redosia for "military protection". Redosia sent in 986,000 troops into all three countries and "took care" of them. Bluegaria was alarmed, but still decided a war against Redosia was imminent.

Redosia however secured a military alliance with Violetnam, who still controlled Afghanistan and Burma (after 15 January), and Greenland, which controlled Israel, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia. Bluegaria became very worried, and decided war with Greenland and Violetnam also was imminent.

On 24 January, Bluegaria secretly stationed some 500,000 troops in Pakistan, 490,000 troops in Iran, more then a million in Cambodia, Laos, and Thailand, and a astounding five million in Bluegarian Iraq. While the Violentians were celebrating the Golden Globe, the Greenlandians their African Cultural Festival, and the Redosians their Berlin Film Festival, Bluegarians were arming themselves. A Bluegarian fleet of 500 ships had also secretly taken all the Pacific, except Violentian Samoa, Redosian Micronesia, Greenlandian Polynesia, Violentian Guam, Violentian Marianas, Violentian Midway, and Violentian Hawaii. A Bluegarian fleet was also sent to Antartica.

At 4:00 PM, January 24, 2010, more then 10 million Bluegarian troops took action, invading Redosian Transcacausia, Greenlandian Arabia, Violentian Afghanistan, Violentian Burma, and all Redosian, Greenlandian, and Violentian possessions in the Pacific. Bluegarian fleets invaded Antartica and bombed Greenlandian forces in the Artic. James I of Bluegaria issued a declaration of war against Redosia, Violetnam, and Greenland. The Allies were unprepared.

On 25 January, Redosian Transcacausia fell, despite bitter Redosian resistance. Violentian troops in Afghanistan tried to airlift out of that country, but failed and surrendered by noon. Bluegarian forces had captured Riyadh and recieved help from Bluegarian units in Yemen, Oman, Qatar, and the Emirates, bursting through the Arabian Desert and surronding Mecca. However, the Bluegarians flopped in Burma. When Rabul was attacked, the Violentians reacted quickly. They landed 45,000 paratroopers in the Burman Forest, stabbing the Bluegarians in the back, who remained in Burma's few plains. The Bluegarian forces were forced to fall back to the outskirts of Rabul. However, 600,000 further Bluegarians were landed in the Forest as well, stabbing the Violentians. Finally, on 4 February, the Violentians in Burma surrendered, after they lost contact with Violentian radio centers in the Americas.

Bluegaria attacks Greenland in the Middle East
Bluegaria then launched a air and water assault on Mecca on 6 Febuary. The Greenlandians, fighting to the death, stopped the attack and even retook half of Saudi Arabia. In June, the Bluegarians were back at Riyadh. This also coupled the Greenlandian invasion of Yemen and Oman, and their blockade of the western branch of the Persian Gulf.

James I, however, was not determined to lose so early in the war. In August, the king personally visted Bluegarian troops in Iraq and eastern Saudi Arabia, giving them a speech that raised their morale. With morale surging, and their king fighting and suffering with them, the Bluegarians launched a massive offensive on 8 September, attacking from the Emirates, Qatar, Riyadh, Iraq, and from Aden, Yemen. A total of 24 million Bluegarian forces, 10 million Bluegarian nationals, and 14 million consripted from Bluegarian Iran and Iraq, attacked the only 5.6 million Greenlandian troops in the western Middle East.

By 18 September, Bluegarian troops had retaken Oman and the rest of Yemen from Greenland, although losing 400 tanks and 560,000 soldiers during the process, due to fierce Greenlandian resistance. A Greenlandian offensive into north-east Yemen was driven back with crippling losses on 4 October, losing 443 tanks and 55,000 soldiers, 50,000 dead, 3,000 wounded, and 2,000 captured.

Meanwhile, the Redosians had launched a massive offensive into Central Asia, attacking with 1.5 million soldiers, 780 tanks, and 4,500 machine guns, including 100 volley bombers. The Bluegarians, with only 40,000 soldiers, 20 tanks, and 300 machine guns in Central Asia, were alarmed and immediately telegrammed the Bluegarian forces in China and Iran for help. The Bluegarians, however, were still establishing their lines of communication across their sprawling kingdom, and were concerned with the conflict in the Middle East and only sent 9 tanks and 4 divisions to help in time. Despite this low amount of support, the Bluegarians resisted heavily. The force was overwhelming, however, and by 8 November, Central Asia had fallen to Redosia. This proved Redosia's first major victory in the war and Bluegaria's first loss against Redosia.

Bluegaria decided to let Redosia keep Central Asia, and to focuse all attention on Greenland and Violetnam until they were finally defeated. This was a fatal mistake on Bluegaria's part-one that allowed Redosia to invade it more then forty years later. Despite this, Bluegarian and Redosian naval fleets usually engaged eachother in the Black and Caspian Seas and Redosia launched a steady campaign in the Pacific.

Redosia had recently invaded Bluegarian-occupied Transcacausia, with less then three thousand troops and 90 tanks. However, the Bluegarians defeated them, and by January, the border was unchanged.

Bluegaria plans invasion of Greenland
The Redosians, severely overconfident after their success in Central Asia, sent a million troops and nearly 6,000 tanks to Mecca to give a boost to their allies, the Greenlandians. Despite this pouring of Redosian support, Greenland continued to fail and by June Medina had fallen. The Greenlandians' last stronghold in Saudi Arabia, Mecca was surronded to the North, West and southeast by the Bluegarians. Determined not to let it fall, the Greenlandians sent in troops to the area, trying as best as they could to hold it. The Bluegarians, however, could not bypass the fortifications and defense lines on Mecca's outskirts, and so they decided to blockade the town from recieving any supplies. The Redosians, however, had control of the Red Sea, and continually shipped food, clothing, and weapons. After the rest of Greenland fell, Mecca was taken by Redosian troops, and it remained in Redosian hands throughout the war, despite continual Bluegarian offensives.

Bypassing Mecca, the Bluegarians reach Ammon, in Greenlandian Jordan. The Greenlandian troops there fell back to Israel, fortified the Suez Canal positions, and set up a huge line of defense from the West Bank to Alexandria. They placed over 8 million troops in this area, and a million in the West Bank alone, by now the frontline. The Greenlandians also moved their capital from Cairo to Cape Town.

The Bluegarians, realizing a attack through the Suez into Egypt was impossible, decided instead to land at Somalia, Nigeria, Mozambique, South Africa, and Western Sahara. Greenland's name could no longer really apply, since both the island of Greenland and Antartica were now in Bluegarian hands. The Bluegarians planned their invasion of Greenland for over two years, and in the meantime began their offensives in the Americas and the Pacific.

Bluegaria fights Redosia in Pacific
The Bluegarians launched a massive campaign in the Pacific against Redosian Micronesia, the only foreign holding in the region. The Redosians had shipped in hundreds of thousands of troops and hundreds of battleships and destoryers to the area, determined to hold Micronesia. Despite this pouring, the Bluegarians pressed foward. They attacked from all directions, but the Redosians continued to resist.

The Pacific front remained until 2018. During that time, the Bluegarians continued launching attacks into Micronesia, and the Redosians, with open supply lines, continued to drive them out. The Bluegarians discovered this open line and sent ships there, cutting it off. With supplies low, the Redosians started to starve, but they continued to fight, as hard as they could, by using food and material from Micronesian islands. But they bogged down, and finally, on 13 June 2018, surrendered to the Bluegarians. Redosia's only overseas holding (besides Mecca) was lost.

Bluegaria invades Violetnam
Meanwhile, James I was also planning a invasion for Violetnam. South America and the Carribean, were heavily undefended, as was Artic Canada and Alaska. The Bluegarians decided to invade by these vantage points.

In June 2012, the Violentians were just sitting around, preparing their next war plans and bascially life was idle. The Redosians however, had undetected the invasion code of Bluegaria against Violetnam. The Redosians warned the Violentians, who ignorantly denied the evidence. On 8 June, suddenly, 3.4 million Bluegarian troops invaded South America by means of former Brazil, Chile, Guyana, Columbia, and Peru. A Bluegarian force of 400,000 also landed in former Panama and 300,000 at poorly defended Yucaktan Pennisula. The Violentians were shocked and by September had lost all of South America except Suriname, and over half of Central America. Redosia's colony of French Guiana, as well the Redosian colonies of the Falkand Islands, Netherland Antilles, Gudeloupe, Martinqiue, Bermuda, Angiulla, Redosian Virgins, Turks and Caicos, and Caymens were not attacked by Bluegaria, because they were heavily fortified.

The Bluegarians were led in their attack by General Miki Chung, a man who grew up in China before the war. Chung was a heavy believer in James I, and admitted he would go to any lengths to insure loyality to his master. He was also a brillant military strategist, and had led the sucessfull offensives on foreign colonies in Asia at the beginning of the war.

However, Chung was overly defensive. He believed in a swift first offensive, but after that, a lull-down by the attacker. He stated that the attacker should always consolidate it's hold on it's gained ground, should build forts and defensive lines, and hold back defender attacks. He then believed a second main offensive should be launched, and the process would be repeated until the enemy was conquered. This strategy however had faults: the defender would be able to launch more and more raids and front line assaults, and they could be on the offensive. This would cause the downfall of Bluegaria.

By the end of the year, most of South America and Central America was in Bluegaria's hands, and it lulled down according to Chung's plan, building the American Line and constructing forts, anti-aircraft guns, anti-tank guns, wires, masses of soldiers, forts, and thousands of batallions.

Violetnam counter strikes
In February 2014, after two years of organization and lull-down, the Bluegarians launched a second offensive against the remaining Violentian lands in northern Mexico. The Violentians, however, had prepared themselves, and were also superior in numbers: the Bluegarians attacked with 500,000 men, but the Violentians had 800,000 defenders. They also had another advantage: their possessions in the Caribbean, whom Chung had ignored and did not invade.

In April 2014, 1.4 million Violentian troops from the Caribbean, supported by 5,600 tanks, 4,100 guns, and more then 300 fighters and 149 bombers, attacked the Yucatan Peninsula, the Panama Canal, and Nicaragua. Chung had 540,000 men, 5,000 guns, and 4,500 tanks defending these places, but they were among the weakest and under-equipped of the Bluegarian forces. Almost immediately, the weak Bluegarian defenders fell back, abandoning their positions.

When Chung received news of the counter-offensive, he took his knife and stabbed himself, muttering as he died "It's over". With no commander, the Bluegarians attacking Violentian Mexico and those defending against the Violentian troops all surrendered. This was a blow: some 5.5 million Bluegarians became prisoners of the Violentians. All of Central America once again passed into Violentian hands.

The Bluegarian forces in South America got afraid, but determination and will pressed them on. There was still some 15 million Bluegarian troops in South America. They put one million at the border between Bluegarian Columbia and Violentian Panama. They stationed more then 4 million men in Brazil. The remaining 11 million were centered in the Amazon and in the western highlands.

This allowed the Violentians a way to attack by two vintage points: through Argentina, through the Andes, and also they could also gain permission from Redosia to attack from Guiana. Gathering a fleet of 450 destoryers, 4 carriers, 19 crusiers, and 554 submarines carrying more then 17.9 million Violentian troops and 4.4 million Redosian Marines, the Violentians organized. They had to destory the Bluegarian fleet of 500 destoryers, 7 carriers, 24 crusiers, and 600 submarines that guarded the coasts.

On 5 July 2014, the Battle of Curacao occured, off the coast of Venezeula. At first, the Violentians were losing, with the Bluegarian admiral, Hertex Curacs, able to sink 120 Violentian destoryers, damage 100 others, sink one crusier, damage two others, destory three carriers, and sink 300 submarines. The Violentians however counter-struck, using a hurricane to their advantage, completely destorying all but five crusiers of the Bluegarian fleet, all five badly damaged. This was a huge blow to the Bluegarian navy, losing a fourth of their total fleet.

In September 2014, after recovering from the Battle of Curacao, the Violentians landed some 21.9 million men in the Andes and in Venezeula and Argentina. The Redosians attacked the northern branch of the Amazon and also attacked Bluegarian Suriname and Bluegarian Guiana. The Bluegarians were surprised, and General Sung (the new commander) ordered that crops be burned, roads and bridges destroyed, villages cleared, and cities leveled. He also destroyed farming grounds, leaving a scorched land to be occupied by the Allies. Sung also destroyed half of the rain forest, killing many millions of snakes, fish, monkeys, and numerous unknown species. He also destroyed many crops and drained half of the Amazon. His actions ruined permanently most of South America, scaring a large portion of the Earth's surface.

Sung and his men also committed war atrocities: they killed men and the sick, raped women, beat children, and kidnapped many of the elderly. The Violentians and Redosians were sickened by this. Sung had even herded South Americans into concentration camps and murdered them.

By July 2015, Sung had lost more then 6 million soldiers (a fourth of his total manpower), 5,000 tanks (all but 3,000 of his tanks), 10,000 machine guns (a third of his guns), and over 900 fighters and 500 bombers, about a third of his air force groups. With almost his entire force gone, Sung retreated to Uruguay and the easternmost pocket of Argentina. He decided to hold this land down to the last soldier. Sung's troops built a line called the Bueno Aries-Montevideo Line, stretching from Montevideo down to Bueno Aries. It had four defense lines. The first stretched into the neck of the Violentian front line, and was the heaviest defended, with over 3,000 machine guns, 500 outposts, 3.4 million defenders, five lines of thick barbed wire, dug in trenches, 5,000 cannons, and four defense walls. It also had anti-aircraft guns, anti-tank guns, natural barricades, and built in mounds of earth, supported by lines of electrical-charged fence. The second and third defense lines had 1,000 machine guns each, 600 outposts, 1 million defenders each, 3,000 cannons, and three defense walls. The final defense line ran across the center of Montevideo and Bueno Aries, using the river as a front barrier, plus lines of machine guns, mounds of earth, barbed wire, and 10 million defenders, supported by 190 aircraft and 300 tanks.

The Violentians made the costly mistake of attacking these defense lines.
