A morning emergency meeting... all of the country's top management officials were present, and this meeting would determine the will of the empire as a whole. The main topic of the meeting was what to do about the Soviet Union

The people participating included:

- Emperor Ludius
- Remille, a member of the imperial family
- Supreme Commander Arde
- 1st Foreign Affairs Department Head Elto
- 2nd Foreign Affairs Department Head Rius
- 3rd Foreign Affairs Department Head Kyeos
- Governing Board Director Baars
- Financial Department Head Mooly

Aides for each department were also present
Before the meeting began, a document containing all information discovered about the Soviet Union until now was distributed. All of the officials scanned the material, which had been put together by the 3rd foreign affairs department. The information, arranged in chronological order, is summarized below:

- Central Calendar year 1639, January, the Principality of Qua-Toyne, now called Socialist Republic of Qua-Toyne in Rodenius established contact with the Soviet Union. At that time, no other country who received their diplomats acknowledged the existence of a country called "Soviet Union," after establishing contact, the country of the Soviet Union made a purchase request to Socialist Republic of Qua-Toyne for a large amount food

- Same year, April, the largest military force in Rodenius at that time, the former Kingdom of Louria, invaded Socialist Republic of Qua-Toyne, igniting a war between the two countries. The Soviet Union joined the war as an ally of Qua-Toyne. In the Great Naval Battle of Rodenius, the Lourian navy lost over 1,500 ships and suffered catastrophic damage to their wyvern fleet

- In a battle west of the castle town of Ejey in Qua-Toyne, Louria's vast ground forces were completely annihilated

- While the method is still unclear, shortly afterwards, the king of Louria, Hark Louria, was captured by the Soviet Union

- The empire sent the imperial oversight army's eastern fleet to punish the Kingdom of Fenn, now called Democratic Republic of Fenn, but its wyvern lords were shot down and ships-of-the-line rebuffed. This was the empire's first clash with the Soviet Union

- After bringing down the Kingdom of Altarus, the imperial army set its sights on Democratic Republic of Fenn. They captured a Soviet ships who brought 200 Soviet citizens from Awan, and executed those citizens by order of Remille, the acting 1st Foreign Affairs Department Head. Enraged by this action, the Soviet military attacked the imperial naval forces that were involved in invading Fenn and destroyed them. These losses were equal to a third of the empire's naval forces

- The Emperor announced that the empire would commit to exterminating the Soviet Union, the NCP and all of its citizens; in response, the Soviet Union claimed the right of self-defense. This was the official start of the war between the Parpaldia Empire and the Soviet Union/the NCP

- The Soviet Union attacked and defeated the imperial military forces stationed in Altarus, and the imperial-controlled territory of Altarus reclaimed its independence as the Socialist People's Republic of Altarus

- The Soviet Union also sent numerous aircraft to attack the Imperial Capital Defense military base north of Esthirant, destroying it and all their defenses

- At the same time, Soviet naval forces effectively annihilated the imperial navy and destroyed the navy headquarters building as well as the other buildings built at the port

- The Soviet Union claims that its country was transferred from another version of this world, or perhaps from another planet. They do indeed have military achievements that are unthinkable for a country outside of the civilized areas. Rather than the empire never knowing about a country like this in all of its storied history, it is more believable for the Soviet Union to have suddenly appeared out of nowhere
