World War I started after Romania declared war on Hungary. Romania's declaration came two days after the formation of the PEACE GC and was declared before many PEACE protection pacts with Hungary became active.

The war, which pitched ATLANTIS forces against the newly formed Global Community PEACEKeeping Force, enveloped twenty-three of twenty-nine world nations and quickly became the world's bloodiest war — succeeding the First Balkan War — with the Battle for Northern Great Plain becoming the bloodiest battle in any war. That battle succeeded the previous day's Battle for Southern Great Plain, which had, in turn, succeeded the Spanish Battle for Campeche in the Ibero-American War for the title of "bloodiest battle."

Background

This war was started because of an election promise made by Alex Craciun on April 30, 2008:

 Cu totii jucam acest joc din dorinta de distractie, ne distram castigand, castigam recuperandu-ne teritoriile care acum fac parte din Bulgaria, Cadrilaterul si Ucraina, partial Bucovina. La pachet cu Bulgaria vom avea si Ungaria, multi dintre voi asteapta asta. Vom recupera aceste teritorii prin orice mijloace care ne stau la indemana! 

Translation:

 "We all play this game because of our desire for fun, we have fun by winning, we win by recovering our territories that are now part of Bulgaria, Cadrilaterul and Ukraine, parts of Bucovina. With this package we will have also Hungary, many of you are expecting this. We will recover these territories through any means necessary!
