Moscow Pact Of Eurasia[]
Founded in 2004 following the admission of the Baltic countries into NATO the Moscow Pact has acted as an anti-NATO force made up of Russia,China,Iran,North Korea,Cuba and Venezuela (not pictured as well as many post-Soviet states except for Ukraine and Georgia. Pakistan assumed its place in the alliance in 2012, having felt violated by the Americans threatening to shoot down their jets during the assassination of Osama Bin Laden. A move which greatly increased tensions between Pakistan and India, which now faced two hostile nuclear powers on its borders.
Despite being a military alliance the group primarily provides material support to each other, its main difference between itself and NATO is that member states cannot call upon others to its defense unless attacked by a member of NATO or any other foreign power.
In February 2014 Ukrainian pro-Western revolutionaries overthrew the Ukrainian government. In response the President of Russia, Viktor Riosovsky ordered Russian forces into Ukraine later annexing the Crimea peninsula and several other oblasts.Other members of the Pact warned against direct Western intervention, with China threatening to cut trade with the United States by a quarter and Iran making the threat of forcing OPEC to cut oil production and raise oil prices, as Iran held the leadership of the cartel at the time.
In September of 2015 Russian and Chinese warplanes began air strikes against ISIS in Syria in support of the Syrian junta 8,000 Iranian and 12,000 Russian ground troops were deployed around Damascus spearheading an assault on opposition forces outside the city. In October of 2015 a Chinese drone in central Syria fired upon an American F-18 jet, destroying it. This action brought the Pact and NATO to the brink of war, and with the encroachment of the Empire the Pact felt they had no choice but to take what they could while they could, and thus mobilized their forces for war. At the stroke of midnight on December 31st the Pact launched a multi pronged attack against their adversaries with plans that had been in place for a decade. The short lived yet deadly conflict was known as the Ten Days War, and resulted in the deaths of over three and a half million worldwide, in the largest war since the Second World War had ended over seventy years earlier.
