Great War I (also known as The Great War and the Great Patriotic War) was the first global war in Cyber Nations fought between the New Pacific Order and New Polar Order ("Coalition of Justice") and the CoaLUEtion.

The war ended in a stalemate, although Emperor Ivan Moldavi of NPO and Emperor Tygaland of NpO offered public apologies, and Tygaland resigned at its conclusion, with the major alliances realigning themselves into two diplomatic camps, one led by the NPO and the other by the LUEnited Nations

Prelude

On July 15, 2006 a member of the LUEnited Nations posted a series of pornographic stories which incorporated members of both the NPO and NpO, as well as a goatse picture in an attempt to be banned from Cyber Nations by breaking as many rules as possible. It was noted that the LUE member frequently posted in their IRC channels, with the government of LUE failing to prevent him from making the offending posts.

The governments of the NPO, NpO and LUE met to discuss the situation, with LUE posting an apology on the forum though it was noted that several of the signatories to the apology had encouraged the behavior. The situation came to a head when NpO Emperor Tygaland declared war on a member of LUE and promptly nuked them (the 24 hour wait before being able to use nuclear weapons had not been implemented), LUE nations began to declare counter wars leading Emperor Ivan Moldavi to formally declare war on the LUEnited Nations.
