Wars

War on the SMP is quite a common occurrence, and it can sometimes be difficult to keep track of all of them. Below is a simple list of all of the wars that have taken place, or are currently taking place on the server, and a brief description.

The few server-wide major wars on the server often arise from important countries or factions like L'Manberg and Dream SMP, like the Dream Team SMP vs. L'Manberg War and the Manberg vs Pogtopia War.

The Disc Saga
Date: July 9, 2020 - January 20, 2021

Status: Complete

Results: Tommy reclaims the Discs, Dream serves in Pandora's Vault until further notice, Punz becomes the acting leader of Greater Dream SMP

The Disc Saga was a conflict that primarily happened between TommyInnit, Tubbo and Dream concerning the ownership of Tommy's most prized discs, Cat and Mellohi. After several skirmishes, Tommy ended up getting back his discs, before trading them to Dream for independence for L'Manberg. Dream eventually traded Cat to Skepy. Tommy managed to get a fake and a real version of Mellohi back from Dream, before Wilbur asked to take them until they won the election. They were later returned due to POG2020 technically having won the popular vote.

Due to Tommy's attachment to these discs, he refused to become the leader of L'Manberg after the Manberg vs Pogtopia War, saying he had "unfinished business" with Dream. This lead to Tubbo becoming president. Dream managed to get Mellohi from Tubbo after the Green Festival and Cat from Skeppy later on.

The Disc Saga finally came to a close on the 20th of January, 2021, with Tommy regaining both Cat and Mellohi, and Dream serving in Pandora's Vault. The Disc War is the longest conflict on the SMP to date.

The Dream Team SMP vs. L'Manberg War
Date: July 25, 2020 - August 2, 2020

Status: Complete

Results: L'Manberg recognized by the Greater Dream SMP, Tommy's discs traded to Dream for L'Manbergian independence

The War for L'Manbergian Independence is one of the better-known wars on the server, and is responsible for the creation of L'Manberg. The conflict started after Wilbur Soot and Tommy declared independence from the Greater Dream SMP, angering Dream enough to declare war on L'Manberg. After several battles, and Eret's betrayal of L'Manberg, Wilbur surrendered to Dream. However, Tommy still challenged Dream to a duel, saying that if Tommy won, Dream would give L'Manberg its independence, and if they lost, Dream would get Mellohi. Tommy ended up losing, but at the last moment, made a deal with Dream, and gave him both of his discs in exchange for L'Manberg's independence.

The Railway Skirmish
Date:  August 22, 2020

Status: Complete

Results: Tommy losing Shank, Tubbo losing full set of enchanted netherite armor, returning Dream's armor, Tommy gaining Spirit and Dream's maxed-out sword.

The Railway Skirmish was a short conflict between Tommy, Dream, and Tubbo, after Tommy accidentally ran over Dream with a minecart, "killing" him. In reality, Dream had used /kill as a joke, not expecting Tommy and Tubbo to steal his high powered gear, seeking an advantage over Dream. Tommy and Tubbo attempted to trade Dream's stuff to him in exchange for the discs, but Dream wouldn't take it, saying he could easily grind back all of the gear over time. During the conflict, Dream killed Tommy's horse, as he believed that Tommy had his powerful netherite sword, which had gone missing. In exchange, Tommy gave Dream his netherite sword, "Shank", in a trade. Dream accepted this, and everyone else seemed to believe that Dream's sword had just despawned, until in a turn of events, Tubbo revealed that he had the sword hidden in a secret chest all along.

The Pet War
Date: August 25, 2020 - September 9, 2020

Status: Complete

Results: Pyrrhic victory for Sapnap, Fungi's grave blown up, many pets killed

The Pet War is a conflict primarily involving Sapnap, Nihachu, Punz, and Fundy, and the killing of their respective pets. It began when Sapnap was firing arrows at Nihachu's pet fox, Fungi, as a joke, but it ended with him killing the fox on his fifth shot. Nihachu, angered by the death of her fox, went to get revenge on Sapnap, with the help of TommyInnit. Tommy stole Sapnap's fish, Beckerson and Mars, who happened to also belong to George and Dream, giving him his own leverage in the Disc Saga. After hearing what had happened to Nihachu's fox, Fundy was angered, as he had a similar attachment to it as Nihachu. In retaliation, Fundy killed Sapnap's favorite fox, Sketchers, which started a chain reaction of both killing the others pets. Sometime between, Fundy toyed with Punz and killed his favorite bee, Beenus, in the bee game, during this event Punz accidentally killed him causing him to lose his netherite pants that was used as leverage later. Eventually, after Sapnap blew up Fungi's grave, Fundy challenged Sapnap to a duel, of which Sapnap won. However, he returned some of Nihachu's pets he'd stolen as a token of good will, ending the conflict.

The War of the Burning Eiffel Tower
Date: October 5, 2020

Status: Complete

Results: Pogtopian victory, netherite items taken from BadBoyHalo, Antfrost, Sapnap, and Skeppy

The War of the Burning Eiffel Tower is a conflict between the people of Pogtopia with help from Niki, and Sapnap, BadBoyHalo, and Skeppy. The Battle of the Lake occurred during the war in which Tommy, Technoblade, Nihachu and Dream fought against Sapnap, Skeppy, BadBoyHalo, Antfrost, and Punz. Tommy, Technoblade, and Dream were deemed victorious with Punz backstabbing the opposing team.

The Second Pet War
Date: November 5, 2020

Status: Complete

Results: Polar bear killed, Sapnap's belongings returned

The Second Pet War was a conflict between Punz and Sapnap against the members of the Badlands, Antfrost, BadBoyHalo, and Awesamdude. After Punz and Sapnap discovered a panda in the jungle biome near Tubbo's jungle base, the two decided to keep it as a pet. While leaving it alone in Punz's base, a stream sniping Ant decided to take it as his own for his Animal Sanctuary. Eventually, Sapnap and Punz found out, and while retrieving the panda from Ant and Bad, retrieve. Punz accidentally punched the panda, which caused it to die from the thorn aspect of Punz's armor. In retaliation, Sapnap griefed the Skeppy Statue built for him by Bad, and killed Ant's polar bear Frosty as revenge. This led to a battle in multiple areas, with temporary truces in between. The conflict ended after an agreement to return Sapnap's belongings.

The Final Pet War
Date: November 15, 2020

Status: Complete

Results: Mars released into the ocean, Tommy and Sapnap become friends

The Final Pet War is the final pet conflict, involving Sapnap and TommyInnit taking place on November 15, 2020. The two attempted to negotiate for their pets. Tommy wanted Juorse, his horse, while Sapnap wanted Mars. However, Tommy refused to return Mars. Sapnap then killed Juorse and attacked Tommy who hid near his holiday home. Dream and George then joined the server to kill Sapnap for an unknown reason. Sapnap jumped off Punz's tower to deny them the pleasure of killing him. After Sapnap respawned, they went to his secret base. Sapnap encouraged Tommy to kill the pets in his base but Tommy refused. They then decided to hold a duel to end the conflict immediately since there was an upcoming war the next day. The two agreed that if Tommy won, he would get all of Sapnap's armor, and if Sapnap won, he would get Mars back. The two dueled valiantly in Eret's museum but Tommy lost quickly and anticlimactically. Later, Tommy and Sapnap spoke privately. Tommy proposed that Mars be released into the ocean and Sapnap offered to do it himself. Sapnap released the fish into the ocean near Rutabagville. The two former enemies bonded with each other and opened themselves up to being allies after the substantial war that was to come, and their relationship was healed.

Manberg vs Pogtopia War
Date: November 16, 2020

Status: Complete

Results: Pogtopian victory, a large portion of L'Manberg blown up, Tubbo Administration instated, Schlatt and Wilbur both canonically die

The Manberg vs Pogtopia War was a major war, taking place on the 16th of November, 2020. The battle was between Pogtopia and Manberg. During the war, it appeared that the majority of the server supported Pogtopia's side including an unknown person who would betray them during the war. During the fighting, Dream surrendered and led everyone to the Camarvan to watch a drunk Schlatt just before he died of a heart attack. The members of Pogtopia, hearing from Dream that the traitor setup was a lie, celebrated their victory and began to rebuild the nation, Wilbur making Tubbo the president, only for Wilbur to detonate L'Manberg before dying to Phil. Dream revealed that he'd been lying earlier, and that the traitor was actually Wilbur. The war came to a head as Technoblade (after realizing Pogtopia intended to instate a new government), Dream SMP and the Badlands fought against the reinstated L'Manberg along with two Withers. The nation managed to survive nonetheless, with Tubbo still at the helm.

Mexican L'Manberg Conflict
Date: December 6, 2020

Status: Complete

Results: Eret recognized by Mexican L'Manberg as King, Mexican L'Manberg recognized by Dream SMP and renamed to El Rapids, Karl Jacobs loses a life

The Mexican L'Manberg Conflict was a war between the factions of Dream SMP and Mexican L'Manberg. Mexican L'Manbergians planned to reinstate GeorgeNotFound as king and get their country recognized. A bombing at a peaceful protest of Sapnap and Karl Jacobs was planned at the entrance of the Pride Palace when Eret would enter. The bombing would be blamed on Eret for reposing a "peaceful" protest that would harm his reputation severely. However, the plan went awry as soon as it started. The terrorists believed that Eret would be alone, so they could pin it on one person. However, Eret had arrived with a newly formed military battalion under his command: the Knights of Eret. Mexican L'Manberg denied all actions, and fled to their country. Dream saw this as an act of war, and the Knights of Eret under Eret's command and Dream blew up the country. The members of Mexican L'Manberg fled to the Holy Land to seek a peace deal without conflict. Dream SMP eventually found out that the person who set off the bomb was GeorgeNotFound, the dethroned king. Quackity, however, still managed to negotiate for the recognition of Mexican L'Manberg, provided they comply with a few of the Dream SMP's conditions and rename their country.

Doomsday War
Date: January 6, 2021

Status: Complete

Results: Decisive Anarchist victory, L'Manberg destroyed and dissolved, Jack Manifold canonically dies and revives himself from hell

The Doomsday War was overall one of the most destructive wars on the entire server. On the other hand, the war saw no canon casualties, due to the amount of non-canon deaths there were as well as plot reasons for later events. It seemed to be an impossible job for the anarchist team; with only 3 players. However, Technoblade, Dream, and Phil had a few tricks up their sleeves, with Dream's almost endless amount of explosives, Techno's wither vault, and the Hound Army. The time of the event was originally set for 3:00 Eastern Standard Time, however Dream believed they were at total war, so he asked for Techno and Phil to hasten their preparations and leave for L'Manberg at 2:30 Eastern Standard Time. The trio arrived at L'Manberg shortly after. Techno releasing his hidden army underneath L'Manberg, Phil taking a hidden position upon the L'Manberg apiary, and Dream standing upon the obsidian grid he quickly put together a few hours ago. Surprisingly, there was no forward guard protecting L'Manberg, so the three walked in with no resistance. On the L'Manbergian side, things were not looking too well. Saboteurs Fundy and Niki had sabotaged the equipment that Ponk had prepared for L'Manberg's army. Half of the forces that promised to show were absent; with the Badlands sleeping through the event and Fundy and Niki betraying L'Manberg at the last possible minute.

Tubbo and Tommy were left with half an army consisting of mercenaries, killers, traitors, and L'Manbergians, disloyal to say the least. The force was poorly equipped with only Punz, Sapnap, Eret, and Jack Manifold equipped with decent armor. The rest were equipped with whatever they could've scrounged up including unenchanted diamond armor and leather. The force moved out for L'Manberg after Techno came and mocked them for not defending their country. Techno and his hound army fought against the force while Phil tried to pick them off from range using his bow. Meanwhile, Dream set up his explosives, waiting for 3:00. Techno then gave a signal for Phil to start summoning withers. Around 15 were summoned, and they brought upon as much damage as Techno did himself.

As 3:00 came, Dream started to rain down the explosives. These slowly began to destroy L'Manberg, killing all unarmored inhabitants within the city itself. Techno and Tommy eventually locked gazes. Tommy called Techno out first, saying that he betrayed him. Techno retorted with saying that Tommy had betrayed him, taking resources and valuables for his personal gain and to achieve his own selfish goals. Tommy then said that people mattered and that the discs that he was working for would solve the conflict. Techno interrupted his sentence by saying that discs were not people. Tommy then shouted at Techno that they spent hours together, in which Techno interrupted his sentence again by saying Tommy knew nothing of loyalty. He explained to Tommy that he and Wilbur would've done nothing to save him at the Manberg Festival and that Techno would've given his life to Tommy at the Green Festival. Eventually, the fighting died down and L'Manberg was left a crater, reaching down to bedrock. The anarchists dominated the battle, leaving L'Manberg with no hope. Tubbo finally dissolved the nation and the L'Manbergians went their separate ways.
