The Asperian Roofball Conflict was a war between Paladinia and the members of the Asperian Trade and Defense Organization. After a match between the Paladinian National Roofball Team and the Allian National Roofball Team resulted in multiple ejections against the Paladinians, as well as security becoming involved, forcibly removing players who were becoming violent towards officials, the Paladinian government, unbeknownst to the United States of Quentin, decided to attack a plane with the officials, who were Quentinian, and Quentinian guards. After several weeks, the Quentinian Intelligence Department found evidence revealing that the Paladinian Air Force attacked the plane.

After failed negotiations and the involvement of 4 other nations of the Asperian Trade and Defense Organization, the ATADO-backed Quentinian military declared war. After fighting lasting for nearly 6 months, in November a ceasefire was agreed upon, and after negotiations the Treaty of Bedlam was signed, providing peace in exchange for raised tariffs on Bawhacka transported from Kalsomonia to Paladinia via the USQ.

Background

VERA Semi-Final Incident

The first of two incidents that sparked the war occurred on May 26th, 2019. The 2019 VERA World Cup was in the semifinal stage, with the Allian National Roofball Team playing against the Paladinian National Roofball Team. In the 4th quarter of the game, an Allian player contacted a Paladinian player near the back area. The Paladinian team believed this to be a foul, however the referee, Lewis Mayenvum, did not call it as a foul. One Paladinian player, Ramjek Branoff was angered by the call, and after making multiple rude gestures as well as shouting numerous rude words at the referee, he was kicked out of the game.

Soon the Paladinians took the lead in the game, however the Allians came back, and on one play, the Allians threw the ball into one of the gargales, with the Paladinians calling for a foul. However the officials did not call it a foul, instead giving the ball to the Paladinians. This call pushed the team over the top, with Logan Wagner yelling and making rude gestures, along with numerous players coming up to the referee and arguing their case. After these offenses, the referee kicked out 3 of the Paladinians, Wagner, Brooks Cincy, and Jordan Ballachjekx, however they refused to leave the arena. Security was called in, a team including 21 Quentinians and 11 of other nationality, forcibly removing the three players. After that, the remaining Paladinians were still making rude gestures and comments, and Mayenvum forced a forfeit, giving the game to the Allian team.

After the incident, numerous Allian and Quentinian media sources came out, calling the behavior by the Paladinian team, "disrespectful," and "disgraceful." There was silence from most Paladinian sources, although some were quick to denounce the ref for his "rash call," including Co-Dictator Logan Warren VI on IDKTV.

The most notable exception to laying fault entirely on the players was from The Republic of Megatridimensional Order. On May 27, Order Ambassador Rhand Drenton released an official statement about the incident, called the Order Diplomatic Statement on the VERA World Cup.

Flight SAW-USQ 22 Incident

As the plane entered into airspace just off the coast of Vidgmar, the pilot sent out a distress call to Vidgmarian towers, which was vague and did not tell exactly what was happening.
