World War VI began on May 25th, 2013 with 
Slovenia, a member of TWO, declaring war on 
Switzerland, a member of CoT and 
Italy [1]. These two alliances are the main belligerents, with many small alliances taking sides.
Background
After the fall of EDEN, tensions rose between CoT and TWO, alliances that originally had been allied against EDEN. Without a common enemy, and with former EDEN members seeking new allies, war became inevitable. The acceptance of the eUSA into CoT proved to be the beginning of the end for the CoTWO alliance, as the US continued to be hostile towards TWO nations. The movement of Romania into TWO's sphere of influence provoked anger from the Bulgarians, as well as internal strife in several TWO countries, in particular Spain, the UK, and Hungary. Following that, Romania settled quite hardly into the TWO alliance structure. To the north, Lithuania, a member of CoT, left the alliance and joined ACT.
The smaller alliances also chose sides in the conflict. Asgard, an alliance with anti-TWO sentiments sided with CoT, while NaN whose members were regularly occupied by CoT nations sided with TWO.
The war initiated in Europe, but has continued to spread to North and South America, eventually reaching a global scale.
Causes
1. Breakup of EDEN: Prior to WW6, there was an unnamed, worldwide conflict against EDEN launched by TWO and CoT, who had allied against a common enemy. After about a year of co-operation, EDEN finally dissolved as a result of disunity between members, an ineffective HQ, and an almost un-interrupted string of defeats by CoTWO. Almost immediately, TWO and CoT became more distant, as each alliance absorbed EDEN and EDEN supporting countries into their damage pool. It became inevitable that a war would occur, as there has never been a time where the two biggest alliances and their client alliances did not go to war eventually. A cold war was brewing.
2. USA-AIM: What would prove to be one of the biggest causes of the war was initially a celebration of EDEN. After EDEN formally dissolved, pro-EDEN countries supported RWs in Polish and Spanish territories. Out of this, the USA-AIM project was conceived. The goal was to support RWs in Spanish, Serbian and Polish regions, disrupting trade and making TWO waste damage. This situation became a major annoyance for the major powers of TWO.
3. AMP PTO: For several months prior, the US had been at risk of a PTO by the AFA. Through controlled elections, the threat was contained for many months, and indeed, appeared to be winding down somewhat. However, in the May Congress elections, the leader of the AMP revealed himself to be a Serbian sleeper agent who rose up through the ranks of the AMP over several months. Although the anti-PTOers were able to keep the AMP and AFA from getting too many congressmen, the situation resulted in much anger towards TWO, and in particular Serbia. In response, an NE was launched by eUS congressmen at Serbia, starting the war.
Theaters of Operation
The war would cross continental borders, first beginning in Europe, but shortly thereafter would spread to the Americas.
