The Native army marched on the two territories, Argon and Dimonia, and Xanadu, the only unsucceeded province. They captured them without much trouble.

The Government had no choice but to act. They declared war on the western army. The armed forces sprang into action, and over 20,000 volunteered during the first week.

The most troubling fact of the war was that Australis succeeded. Not only was Australis one of the most populous provinces, it was also the biggest, and there wasn't even a hint of dissatisfaction comming from the province. The government of Neptunia was basically blind-sidded by the sucession of the western provinces. Who wouldn't have been?

It was the assasination of Tran Redskin that paved the path to war.

Marshall and Thunder Bay, the two biggest shipping ports on the west coast of not only Neptunia, but Kia as well, were in the hands of the Westerners. Supplies that normally came in through the west were cut off from the east, but with ports of it's own, the east still managed to get by.

Kenysia, a large country to the south of Neptunia, supplied guns to the NAtive camp; at that time, Neptunia was not on favorable terms with Kenysia.
