The Alliances and Cold War
PLTO was the first of the three alliances that would eventually war with each other. After an argument between the Ozian government and PLTO, Saint Oz left PLTO and formed LSP. MDP, the Mutual Defense Pact, was openly allied with PLTO and Pax Imperium, though MDP was secretly allied with LSP. When Pax Imperium fell, most members joined LSP or remained silent, with the exception of Marcica who, depsite claims of neutrality, openly helped PLTO with everything short of weapons. Finally, tensions between the two sides reached an all time high and LSP attacked PLTO's headquarters with a missile. PLTO responded the same and the situation spiraled downward.
The War
One by one, each PLTO nation fell to the combined forces of LSP and their revealed ally MDP. Yellowstone Valley and Vulrikh were carpet bombed by Acle. Marcica was eventually invaded by Bustian forces, and its eighteenth century tactics and army were no match for the Bustian forces. The colony surrendered to Bustian armed forces and would not regain its original rulers until the Baltijan Bloc ceded it to them. Pragmia, after its occupation by King Rat eventually regained its independence by the end of the war after it became too much of an inconvienience for the occupying forces. MDP and LSP had obtained a resounding victory, and PLTO was disolved, bringing an end to the war.
After the War
Borders were redefined by the war, as the Shadow Empire was able to take over a sizeable amount of land on a continent in the southwest. LSP was refomed as Validius Foedus not long after the war. Some PLTO nations certainly fared better than others, like The G Rebellion being nearly untouched while Yellowstone Valley and Vulrikh would take years to recover. Marcica remained in Bustian hands while the Myrorian Thalassocracy and the Myrorian Lexicon Company persued other land grabs, such as Guurith and Garthians. MDP collapsed after the war after increasing inactivity and resignation. The Bustian government also ceased to exist, allowing its land heir, the Baltijan Bloc, to return Marcica to Myroria. Myroria, realizing after losing a colony, eventually modernized its out of date military and continued landgrabs. After marriage to an Eluvataran, the Myrorian Empeuress formed the largest empire in Lexiconian by combining Eluvataran and Myrorian possessions.
