The Chaos War, also known as the Second L'Manberg-Dream SMP War, was a massive conflict that took place immediately following the conclusion of the Manberg vs Pogtopia War, fought between the newly reformed L'Manberg and a coalition of its enemies.
Manberg vs Pogtopia war[]
The Manberg vs Pogtopia War was the final armed conflict between the factions of Manberg and Pogtopia over the fate and governance of the land of formerly known as L'Manberg. After large scale warfare throughout Manberg, the war came to an abrupt stop as Dream exclaimed his need to speak to Wilbur. After realizing the leader of the nation he was fighting to defend wasn't even present on the battlefield, Dream decided to surrender, and lead the Pogtopian army to Jschlatt. With everyone gathered in the Camarvan, and after a lengthy exchange between all parties about what to do with Schlatt, he would die from a stroke before Tommy could take his life. With the death of Schlatt, the war had come to a conclusive end. The victorious Pogtopians immediately formed a new government for the newly reestablished nation of L'Manberg.
A new president[]
Wilbur would soon call everyone for a speech, as well as handing the presidency over to Tommy. However, Tommy would declare his inability to take up the responsibility of the presidency of L'Manberg due to his unfinished business with Dream, handing it to Wilbur instead. Wilbur. however, would choose to hand the presidency over to Tubbo, as he believed his new anarchist ideals conflict with the idea of accepting the position of president of L'Manberg. Tubbo would accept his new position, and declare his intention to rebuild L'Manberg, and bring it into a new era of peace and prosperity.
Following Tubbo's speech, he and the majority of the server members would start taking down the festival decorations as his first decree as president. As Niki was destroying the 'M' on the podium, she discovered Wilbur's TNT still active despite his claims otherwise, however she did not warn anyone about this deception instead covering up the broken blocks. As they began cleaning and talking about the changes they'd make, Tommy would find out from Dream that there was still a traitor, and that said traitor still had their chance to complete their task.
As this discussion goes on, Wilbur had made his way to the button room, and was preparing to destroy L'Manberg, and go through with his agreement with Dream. However, Philza, a friend of many members of the Dream SMP, along with being Wibur's surrogate father, joined the game in an effort to stop him.
All out war breaks out[]
Just as Philza joined the game, Techno makes his move and kills Tubbo with no hesitation. He immediately declared that he hadn't spent weeks to plan the revolution only for them to instill a new government almost immediately. As Techno spoke, high ranking members of the Dream SMP stood with him in support, while fellow Team Chaos members of the Badlands stood to the side to await what happens next. Techno would attempt to get through to the citizens and allies of L'Manberg, explaining that power corrupts and that the root cause of everyone's problems on this server is government.
However, Dream, Sapnap, and Punz would escalate the conflict by targeting and attacking members of L'Manberg while Techno spoke. As fighting broke out, Techno gave up on diplomacy and just started attacking everyone in his sights, while Dream's Team Chaos, now officially joined in attempted to fight along side him. Most of L'Manberg's forces had to scatter, with Tommy and Jack getting taken out during the chaos. Dream taunted Tommy, telling him that there had been a traitor, and that it was Wilbur although Tommy didn't believe him.
Desolation of L'Manberg[]
As fighting continued, Karl and Quackity began questioning where Wilbur was, before seconds later, the TNT under L'Manberg was detonated, and the area was nearly completely destroyed.
Before he detonated the TNT, Philza asked Wilbur not to go through with it, but Wilbur insisted that it wasn't his anymore, and referenced Eret's line, "It was never meant to be," before detonating the many tons of TNT. Phil and Wilbur watched as the main parts of L'Manberg exploded. Tommy and Tubbo returned together, along with Techno, to the remains of the center pavilion. Inside the room, Wilbur begged Phil to kill him, despite Phil protesting, and saying that he couldn't do that to his son. After seeing the faces of the people watching them, Phil took Wilbur's diamond sword, and killed him.
As everyone reeled from the destruction, Techno revealed the soul sand beginnings of two withers Tommy tried to stop him, but Techno threatened everyone not to get any closer. He then asked if Tommy wanted to be the hero of the story, before telling everyone about Theseus, who'd killed the minotaur, and despite saving his people, was exiled. Before Tommy could do anything, Techno deployed two Withers (after some difficulty), one named "Subscribe to Technoblade," while the other had a generic Wither title. Techno began causing chaos and attacking and killing the people who attempted to kill off the Withers, with Dream’s forces and the members of the Badlands helping him. The withers layed waste to the remains of the country while the pro-L’manberg forces did their best the fight them off, while being less effective at evading death at the hands of Technoblade and his allies. However, even several members of Team Chaos started getting attacked by the withers and ended up having to help take them down for the sake of self-defense.
They managed to get it under control, and kill both of them, only for Techno to continue threatening anyone who wanted to create a government. Dream revealed to Tommy that the deal he made with Wilbur detailed that no matter what happened as a result of the Manberg vs Pogtopia War, Wilbur would blow up L'Manberg regardless.
Technoblade detonated all of the TNT he could to further destroy L'Manberg with the help of Dream and some others exploding any TNT they could get their hands on. While L'Manberg's destruction continued, the L'Manbergians and their allies joined a separate call to try and regroup and take in the events that unfolded. Sapnap tried to fire the TNT with flame arrows, along with George who finally made it to the battle after working on a house, Dream offered Technoblade TNT to help him with the destruction, Hbomb helped by exploding any TNT he could find, Callahan logged off after being threatened by Techno, and the Badlands claimed their victory.
Aftermath[]
L'Mantree[]
- Main article: L'Mantree
After things began to die down, and Techno having finally left the area, Tubbo and Tommy began to make plans for the future, agreeing that Tubbo was still the president, despite the destruction and threat from Techno. The supporters of L'Manberg gathered around the L'Mantree, and Tommy reiterated what Wilbur had said before, that it needed to be protected.
The war ended with Tubbo in charge, planning to rebuild L'Manberg for the better with his new cabinet. Tommy and Dream, along with Tubbo, discussed the future of the SMP, and that Dream had been told by Bad that he and Skeppy planned to burn the disc on stream. L'Manberg was once again whole with a new leader and cabinet, Technoblade went into temporary retirement, and several new people were soon to join the server.
