Peacekeepers Deployed to Angola

In response to the continued civil war in Angola following the departure of Mississippian colonial forces, the UWA has deployed over 1000 troops of the crack First Paratrooper Regiment to points just outside of Luanda to hopefully help put an end to the fighting.

UWA diplomats in the ruined Angolan capital have recently reported that the Federation is currently attempting to negotiate a ceasefire between the four main rebel factions. The current force was deployed with the grudging consent of the Movement for the Total Independance of Angola, which has agreed not to attack the paratroopers.

Federation military commanders, on the condition of anonymimity, described the purpose of the soldiers in the country as "strictly for peacekeeping purposes", and to crack down on the banditry and violence that has engulfed Angola. The paratroopers will pave the way for a brigade of military police to keep order in the capital in cooperation with rebel forces.

Prime Minister Doure has encouraged foreign nations, charities, and NGOs to aid in the stabilization effort, which he described as "crucial to Angola's emergence as a nation state from its previous position of a colonial possession."

The approximately 10,000 strong White Knights of Anola, the splinter faction of the Angola KKK that split from the Mississippi branch when the Imperial Army pulled out about 4 months prior to the fall of Colonial Authority, because of the "Betrayal of Angola by Mississippi", has declared they will "smash the UWA aggressors". About 8,000 of the members of the WKA are black farm workers who wish to help their white bosses, about 3,000 of the WKA are ex-colonial soldiers, elite soldiers from the colonial parachute units that saw fierce fighting in the over 8 month long struggle against the marxist movements. Approximately 100 of the WKA are the super elite Angolan Special Air Assault Squads.

Perhaps you missed the fact that I've retaken it. And I have. And whatever transports your 1000 troops would have arrived on would have been destroyed by F/A-18s long before they arrived on soil. Luanda is no longer ruined, it is in fact entirely rebuilt.

The white resistance group is approximately

100 ASAAS (But no C-130s now)
1200 Paratroopers (But they have no C-130s now)
1600 Cavalrymen and Infantrymen (They still have hummers and horses)
8,000 black militia

The whites were joined by 8,000 black farm workers that had been trained in basic weapons skills and tactics. They were not battle-hardened elite soldiers as were the white resistance fighters, but they were decent and they were dedicated. Their goal was to restore Angola to white rule, be it CM, white farmer rule, etc. The thing that all these men had in common was they were all in the "White Knights of Angola" formed by ex-WKM members when they quit the WKM in disgust after the Imperial Army pulled out and left the colonial army to bear the burden of defense. The black fighters were also White Knights of Angola, but they were in the reserve corp of the WKA.

OOC: Wait, what? When did any of this happen? I thought CM pulled out everybody entirely.

And between Seryown and CM, who's right as to the inhabitation and ownership of the place?

Imperial Army (600,000) pulled out and went to Mississippian Libya to reinforce CM positions there. The colonial army, gradually shrank from 700,000 to 40,000 over a 6 month period as millions of colonists fled. There were 4 million colonists and 40,000 colonial soldiers the final week of the colony existing. Then approximately 3.5 million black marxists swept over the garrisons in the remote interior cities before taking the coastal cities.

I meant Seryown's claim, specifically. Scroll up. Which one of you is right?

I took it after he left. His WKA are still there, but we control the country.
