[Music starts playing, a red H comes into the screen. Then flags of various nations, Doomingland, Generia, Hamptonshire, Praetonia, Automagfreek, nations that the Island has relations with. An English voice could be heard. "Welcome to World Timeline, today we talk about the Battle of Roska City, and hos the capturing of this port led to the victory of the Revolution."]

An old man appeared, he was wearing an old Rosian Dress Uniform. Red, full of medals, he was Irish. "Roska City was a slaughter, a slaughter." He said. "Alot of people lost their innocence in it..."

[Cut to a Memorial Service in Red City. Hundreds of Veterans are laying down candles, some are even crying. Then cut to old archive footage. It looked like some of that old Russian stuff. Explosions, buildings falling, dead bodies strewn along. People fighting, dieing.]

"This was the normal image a man would see in Roska City during the 2nd Revolution." The narrator voice said. "The year is 1932, the City of Rose fell to the rebels and now the fighting spread all over the Island. The strategic signaficance of capturing Roska City was astronomical. This would mean control of the two largest ports on the Island."

[Cut to old Government Officials fleeing and getting shot]

"The Revolutionaries were merciless, killing all who pledged alliegence to the Old Government. Not to say the Old Government was merciful."

[Cut to Old Government Guards shooting Communist rebels in POW camps.]

"The area of the most conflict was near Mayor's Plaza. Holding the Plaza would give the victor a boundless view of the city, this was the cause of most casualties."

[Cut to a picture of an Old Government official in General's dress.]

"General Gregori Rosae. The doomed defender of Roska City. Though he had the defensive advantage, he was a bumbling man and overconfident, which led to his downfall."

These Communist rebels think they can crush our soldiers?! Hah! I'll show them real soldiers.

[Cut to a picture of Rebel leader in fancy Rebel dress]

"His opponent was Leader Francisco Ulto. The opposite of Gregori, he was a calm decisive man. The difference in this whole battle."

This battle, will decide the fate of our Island. We must tread lightly, and not get overconfident.

"These two men, would decide the fate of the Island."

*plays same music as the other documentery*

Today we shall look at the battle of Doom Citadel, and how the current leader of Doomingsland, Emperor Helldawg V, came to power.

Screen changes to a view of the citadel. It's dark out, and it's pouring rain. A small band of men armed with AK74s wearing black fatigues stand facing a second group in khaki fatigues. In the center of each group are the two opposing generals, Helldawg and Premeir Kombayn Nikoladze, the communist ruler of Doomingsland at the time.

*commericial finishes, and screen goes back to the two groups facing off*

The year is 1995. The communist regime under Premier Kombayn Nikoladze has stirred up trouble amongst the Doomingslandian populace. The end is near for him and his cruel ways.

*camera pans to a communist extermination camp where 'enemies of the people' were butchered in the thousands on a daily basis*

To understand this battle, we must first take a look at the two opposing generals.

*camera pans to a black and white photo of Nikoladze*

Kombayne Nikoladze was born on August 5th, 1950. As a boy, he was fasinated by the way the government dealt with traitors and such. He was quickly spotted for talent by the Communist Government, and was sent to a training camp for aspiring young pinkos such as himself. He quickly rose through the hierarchy of the communists, having political opponents killed off at random to further himself. Finnaly, he found himself in the office of Vice-Premier. He patiently awaited the opportunity to sieze power, and did so after the death of Premier Josef Koogas.

*camera pans to a video clip of a military parade in Doom Square, Nikoladze is saluting the marching soldiers and tanks*

*camera pans to a black and white photo pf the emperor when he was younger*

The glorious life of Emperor Helldawg V remains shrouded in mystery to this day. His date of birth remains unknown. What little is known about this great man was that he was a sniper in the Doomingsland Marine Corps, with over 311 confirmed kills. It is said that he keeps his Dragunov rifle to this very day. As a marine, he quickly advanced in rank, eventualy achieving the rank of general. His men's loyalty to him was fanatical, and would play a key part in the battle for Doomingsland.

[The standard intoduction for World Timeline played through. An Avadrian voice, bearing an English accent introduced the show. The man was walking across a grassy hill, blue skys, and a large mountain behind him]

"Welcome to World Timeline, today we will be talking about the War of Thorns, the largest anti-royalist revolution in modern Avadrian history."

[Scenes of the north eastern Avadrian lanscape played across the screen. Calm music, representing the rural atmosphere played in the background.]

"The year is 1974..."

"The Avadrian province of Aufsatz, home to Avadria's fishing and mining industry, has never played a large role in the history of the nation. Few large cities exist there even to this day. It was a land for the workers, the common man, those who strove to make there living off the land."

[The camera cuts to old footage of wheat fields, with farmers working away and coal and ore miners.]

"These people helped support the Empire, they worked to feed the populace first and their families second."

[Cut to footage of an Avadrian farmer and his family]

""The politicians and Royals payed little attention to the affairs of those in Aufsatz and turned a blind eye to the poverty and despair that plauged the northeastern farmers."

[Footage of poor Avadrian farmers eating a dinner. The meal consists of meager portions of hard bread, meat, and vegetables]

"Enter a young miner named Francis Beliam"

[Commercial ends, cut to a large Plaza with a mansion in the middle. It's in color, and it's just going on as usual. People walking, blah blah blah. It's modern Mayor's Plaza.]

"Mayor's Plaza, the bulk of the fighting."

[Cut to a map of the Plaza, figures are drawn on it, arrows, red and blue. It looks like a strategic map.]

"General Gregori figured the rebels would try and rush the plaza, I mean what did he have to worry? These were untrained farmers armed with Springfield rifles. Simple... Gregori lacked the one thing that could've stopped the Rosians, machine guns."

[Cut to a Historian]

(Historian): Gregori was working with a horrible supply line and logistics. He had of course, two Maxim guns at his disposal, but disregarded them. Why, we don't know.

[Cut back to the map, figures moving around...]

"Francisco did the first move. Apparently, Gregori didn't know he held the surrounding buildings."

[Cut to a renactment team. Old Government soldiers being slaughtered on the plaza, well not really, but it's in color.]

"Hundred died on the first attack, though, it was far from over."

*end commercial, camera pans to tank mowing down the gates of the citadel*

General Helldawg had become fed up with the communist government. He noticed how if it weren't for Nikoladze, the entire infastructure would collapse. He was going to use that to his advantage.

*camera pans to a fire fight in the courtyard, rebel marines quickly overrun the poorly motivated communists, and sluaghter them. All of it on archive film*

The attack came on May 5, 1995. General Helldawg and a group of fifty marines and two T90s stormed the citadel. Unfortunately, they'd been expected.

*camera pans to marines getting cut to pieces by machinegun fire, a grenade launcher is called up, and a communist soldier can be seen soaring through the air after it's fired*

The first few hours of the battle were very confusing. Luckily, the attack was so well planned, that the enemy had no means of escape. When Nikoladze attempted to lift off from his helicopter, he was immediatly shot down by an SA7 missile. No one survived the crash. Meanwhile, the garrison didn't know, and continued to mount a resistance.

*commercial begins*
