The Great Northern War is the name given to the unprecedented warfare which raged from May 28, 2004 to December 10, 2004 and involved numerous alliances and corporations.


The Beginning

Tensions were high long before the first shot was fired, though few could have predicted the magnitude of the coming conflict. The initial spark was the alleged pirate activity of CDI.

Reikoku was the first to declare war on May 28, 2004. Jericho Faction quickly followed on May 29, 2004. Evolution used the event as a pretext to attack the Phoenix Alliance, an organization with which Evolution had previously battled to a stand-still. Fade Union and Coalition of Deklein expelled the Phoenix Alliance from the Northern Alliance Security Treaty (NAST) on May 31, 2004, declaring war against Phoenix Alliance the same day. NORAD and UNICOR shortly thereafter entered the war on the side of NAST.

The End

The war came to an end after nine members of the Phoenix Alliance withdrew. These corporations were: The Disinherited, Generals Of Destruction Syndicate, Quantum Industries, A99, DC1 Coalition, North Star Networks, Oblivion Systems, Bladerunners, and StarLight Inc.

Video

There's a video created by Outbreak, which gives a good overview of the events of The Great Northern War, though it is not made in a neutral/objective way.
