Background
On April 18th 2008, Australia fell to Indonesia. South Africa, as the neighbor next to Australia, fells threatened. So they tried to search allies through military protection pacts (MPPs). Because many countries allied with South Africa, Indonesia decided to accept MPP request from Germany and Russia to counterbalance the situation in South Africa. This will trigger Sweden-Germany War and Norway-Russia War before the MPP activated.
Feeling uneasy that Indonesia cannot do anything against these wars, in May 2008, the South African government was taken over by Indonesia with goal to remove Nordic influence. This was protested by United Kingdom and Sweden. Finally, Indonesian-backed African National Congress party won, and mamangbakso elected as the new president. He dissolved all previous European MPP.
Due to political pressure, and also changes within the government of Indonesia, the new government of South Africa decided that South Africa will remain neutral as a sovereign state and will request new MPPs, especially from Indonesia and Sweden.
Declaration of War
Indonesian president, RaFee proposed war on South Africa in 10 June, claimed just for fun.[2] The result was 4 stood against the other 28. This was seen by members of Pan American differently because they saw that Indonesia wanted to have access to South America. Due to this, three nations of the PANAM were involved officially and many foreign fighters came to stop the Indonesian invasion. Many South American paratroopers were sent to defend South Africa because they didn't want Indonesia to share a border with South America. They use Q4 hospital in Austin as base of operation. Other countries also helped South Africa to repel Indonesia.

On 11 June, regions of Eastern Cape (capital Bhisho) and KwaZulu-Natal (capital Pietermaritzburg) were opened for battle. Defenders set up along the eastern coast of South Africa. Indonesia conquered Eastern Cape. South Africa and allies successfully defended Kwazulu-Natal region. After that, regions of KwaZulu-Natal, Free State (capital Bloemfontein), Western Cape (capital Cape Town) and Northern Cape (capital Kimberley) were opened for battle. South Africa and their allies was able to defend Kwazulu-Natal, Free State, Western Cape and Northern Cape regions. They even threatened Western Australia (capital Perth) and Eastern Cape regions, but Indonesian was able to defend Western Australia and Eastern Cape regions.
War Paused
On June 14th, admin paused the war with reason of bug. The reason was most likely do the fact that some Indonesians including their president glitched their strength to higher levels. The Indonesian president at first had his in the mid sevens range but then it shot up to 32 and then 1 00.48. The war was resumed on the 23rd of July. This made the war longer then it really was.
War Continued and Peace Treaty
