Johannes' eyebrows went up for a moment. A question he thought may have been asked, not quite in the way it was asked. He shifted in his chair slightly before answering.



Ah, that conflict. Ja, I heard many rumors about it und witnessed some of it first-hand when my vessel was escorting a convoy to Freistadt. I believe that the Bretonian's corporations, in their infinite greed, decided to lay claim to all of Omega-3 in the name of the Bretonia Government, however Rheinland opposed this as they had their own interests in the area, a Daumann Mining Facility. It was escalated by the Bretonian Company 'Bowex' refusing to pay the Rheinland Federal Police's fine for shipping Military Grade Combat Veichles which sparked off the conflict initially, even involving Freeport One who merely wanted to retain their independance from both Bretonia and Rheinland, unfortunately a Rheinland Vessel either intentionally or accidently struck the Freeport, swaying Freeport One towards the Bretonians and making the Rheinlanders lose popular support for their offensive despite Bretonia being the aggressor through the annexation of Omega-3 as the "Snowdown" system. In the end, however, neither side won as their enemies took advantage of the shifting fleets to stage assaults upon vital installations at their respective front-lines and causing many lives and resources to be lost in the Omega-3 Skirmish-War. As such, I believe that the Omega-3 conflict was a feudal attempt rooted in capitalist motives for more power. Rheinland lost the Westfalen in Hamburg, und Bretonia lost a vital MOX fuel installation. Putting both more in the hole than before that incident.
