2015-2016

 * Anean Continental War
 * On August 30, 2015, Estovakia (led by The Generals) invaded Emmeria by taking over the nation's capitol, Gracemeria. The Emmerian Forces were pushed backwards to Khesed Island. They slowly began to regain Khesed Island and eventually reached Anea. For sometime, Estovakia occupied Emmeria from August until December 2016, when Gracermeria was liberated. During the war, the Estovakians used two different megapowerful weapons to take over Anea, the P-1112 Aigaion and the Chandelier. The Aigaion became a primary issue in taking back Emmeria. The Joint Chiefs of Staff launched a plan of action to destroy the heavy command cruiser. The plan was to retake Cavalia Air Force Base. With Cavalia AFB captured, the Republic of Emmeria Air Force received the supplies they needed. On the next day, six squadrons participated. It was a very difficult battle, but the REAF succeeded in destroying the cruiser. Now that the cruise missile attacks was suppressed, there was a good chance of Emmeria taking back Gracemeria successfully. As the time passed, the Emmerians have taken back Ragno Fortress and passed through Moloch Desert. Unfortunately, There was another block in their path. Estovakia ordered a scorched-earth policy toward Gracemeria. A WMD catalyst was heading straight for Gracemeria. This became a major problem for the recapturing. Fortunately, the Joint Chiefs of Staff formed a plan to destroy the WMD catalyst thanks to 28th Fighter Squadron (Garuda Team). The final move was taking back Gracemeria, which was a complete success. But, the war was not over. The night of the liberation, cruise missiles suddenly attacked Gracemeria. Emmerian AWACS support, Ghost Eye, discovered the launch position of the cruise missiles. The attack was coming from the Chandelier, a powerful railgun originally produced for the destruction of Ulysses, but wasn't completed by the time the asteroids hit. All REAF pilots headed for Estovakia to destroy the railgun and end the war. Thanks to the Garuda Team, the Chandelier was destroyed and the war was brought to an end. More information on: Emmeria-Estovakia War.
 * The Estovakians deployed the CFA-44 Nosferatu, a super fighter able to combat any Emmerian resistance. After the war, a copy was given to Emmeria.

2019

 * On the Southern area of the Osean Continent, the Democratic Republic of Leasath, enters Civil War. It ends within the same year, with military dictator Diego Gaspar Navarro in control of the country.

2020

 * Leasath suddenly invades Aurelia without warning. Claiming that Aurelia exploited Leasath during the Civil War in 2019. The unprepared Aurelian Forces were overrun by the Leasath Forces lead by General Diego Gaspar Navarro. By mid-2020, Aurelia was almost completely occupied by the Leasath Military. Gathering what little strength they had left, Aurelia launched an out-numbered counter-attack against the Leasath Forces. Though constantly outnumbered the Aurelian Forces managed to claim victory and regain their land. During the process, they had destroyed Leasath's powerful Gleipnir and eventually retook their capital city, Griswall. This was in large part, thanks to Gryphus One, also known as "the Southern Cross". General Diego Gaspar Navarro fled to the near by Danern Straits to finish production of the 'Fenrir', a secret super aircraft. The production facility he fled to was attacked by the Aurelian Air Force strike team led by Gryphus One and destroyed, along with the Fenrir prototypes. The development of Fenrir was later found to be the cause of the Aurelian War. General Diego Gaspar Navarro has since disappeared after failing to regain power in Leasath, his whereabouts are unknown. More Information on: The Aurelian War
 * The truth behind the Leasath-Aurelian War is found, thanks to a traveling Osean Reporter, who went to the battle area for a story in a Newspaper.
