name that war
well, being new to the democracy game, I'm gonna have to trust the history buffs and say if this war has really gone on for six hundred years, we go with "The 200000 Day War" (thats 364.25 x 600 and I'm rounding down) along the line of Vietnam's 30000 Day War which started with the French (ironically) and ended with the pull out of the US."The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country." -- Abraham Lincoln
"Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this ever, in flesh and blood, walked upon this earth." -- Albert Einstein, in regards to Mohandis Gandhi

War of Wonders sounds good, with the acronym of WWI, but lets go ahead and continue with this train of thought.
Why not World War I? IIRC, almost every nation in Upper Abananaba was involved in more then one war.
Apolytionia vs France, Germany and Persia
Greece vs Aztec and England
America vs Aztec and England
I don't remember if an Abananaba Minor country was involved in the Greco-American vs Anglo-Aztec war and I also remember something about a Germanic-Abananaba Minor war (might have just been discussion). In any case, all of Upper Abananaba was in major Strife. And seeing as Upper Abananaba probably has most of the land in the world, it could conceivably be called World War I.
History note: the entire world was NOT involved in WWI, just the major powers, and yet it was still called WWI (I know, it was called the Great War and The War to End All Wars)....
Hey there's an Idea... since we don't want to fight any more major wars for some time, why not The War to End All Wars? This would make the DIA happy I thinkFounder of The Glory of War, CHAMPIONS OF APOLYTON!!!

The War of jdjdjd's . . . Ear?
IIRC jdjdjd was in France just before the war started. Wasn't he expelled for certain transgressions, which expulsion was cited as the proxima casus belli (along with other grievances) in the declaration of war.Diderot was right!
