The Dumpster Conflict

The Dumpster Conflict was the first military conflict to take place in the events after the Great Hat War. It was an attack launched by the Space Demons on the planet Dumpster, controlled at the time by the Cult of Prosperity. This attack was the first of three to take place as part of a maneuver by the Space Demons to hold the Space Pope's empire at a choke point, reducing the possibility for military advancement by the Pope.

This attack followed a rising concern amongst the various races about the weapons technology being traded by the Space Demons, and in particularly following a push by the Pope to eliminate the trading agreements of the Space Demons with other races. The rising aggression of the Pope caused the demons to fear an upcoming crusade, resulting in their preemptive strike at the planet's "Dumpster", "Hatless Trading Centre" & "Ponzi's Space Resort" (later renamed to "ThisStarIsOwnedByMorons and again to "OwnedByAGreekHero").

Aftermath
After the dust settled, the factions in the Galactic North-East began realizing that the peace following the Great Hat Dispute may well be short lived. All factions are keeping a close eye on the growing conflict.
