The Glory of War
Brought to you by the GoW Office of Misconsfusion
-----------------------
Introduction
Background
The Glory of War is one of the four nations which originated in the continent known as Bob (or Borconia in Arab). Born out of a collection of loosely assembled smelly feudal cavemen lords in the hills northwest of the continent, the empire now spreads from coast to coast incorporating most of the former territory of Lux Invicta and some Neu Demogyptican lands. Main events in the history of GoW include the Luxian War in which it was a late participant (notable only in the capture and subsequent slavery of the Luxian leader, Trip) and the Great Bobian War where, allied with its southern neighbor, defeated the armies of Spain and the Gathering Storm. Today GoW remains a significant military and economic power and is rapidly industrializing though most of its inhabitants still cant speak or spell, still bonk each other in the head with dull clubs and axes just for the fun of it, consider shaving their backs and asses (as well as their women's beards) a national pastime, and most importantly, still do not shower often.
