Anyway....
Backstory.
The land of Twelve Bays used to be a unified, democratic land. When a particularly loved leader was elected the head of state, the people rejoiced. Unfortunately, he was assassinated on the first day of his presidency. The two major parties each blamed the other, and rioting filled the streets. Police forces were overwhelmed. When the army was called in, the Field Marshal in command, Kharn, declined to aid the police in controlling the riot and declared the army's independence, while at the same time supporting one of the parties.
The first party, the Liberal Party (i.e., the conservatives) of the Twelve Bays, had not received the army's support, but external nations were secretly providing military support to them. Their leader decided the best strategy would be guerilla warfare, each group of the military under a separate leader. Thus he disintegrated his supporters into three psuedonations.
The second party, the Democratic Party (i.e., the ones in favour of a communist dictatorship) had received the support of the military and orchestrated precise strikes. Unfortunately, the guerilla warfare meant that the gains were relatively minimal.
The nation eventually disintegrated even further, with several islands being classified as no-mans land, with neither side willing to let the other get it.
A cold war erupted. After several years with no gain on either side, and non-military technology getting ahead of them, they secretly signed an armistice and sent a scientific envoy. Competition between the two nations increased the rate of 'scientific' 'advancements' by a hundred fold, and soon they reached space technology...what happens now, no-one knows.
