        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.

          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 think

                                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.
