In the wake of the 5-day Taiping-Russia War (whimsically and cynically referred to as World War III by many), the original combatants on all sides were heavily scarred and tired, though the losses, in comparison to past wars, was not exceptionally high. The Taiping Empire, whose main advantage lay in its numbers in Space Combat and the strength of its Export Economy/Industry, had taken surprisingly high casualties against just as skilled Russian Land Forces and even the High Seas, where the Taiping Fleet traditionally dominated. Russia, the second original combatant, was in even worse condition. Economically blockaded and attacked from both sides, most of the war had been fought on Russian Soil.

abstract	In the wake of the 5-day Taiping-Russia War (whimsically and cynically referred to as World War III by many), the original combatants on all sides were heavily scarred and tired, though the losses, in comparison to past wars, was not exceptionally high. The Taiping Empire, whose main advantage lay in its numbers in Space Combat and the strength of its Export Economy/Industry, had taken surprisingly high casualties against just as skilled Russian Land Forces and even the High Seas, where the Taiping Fleet traditionally dominated. Russia, the second original combatant, was in even worse condition. Economically blockaded and attacked from both sides, most of the war had been fought on Russian Soil. While Russian forces had managed to halt the advance of both the Taiping and Everetti, it did so at a high cost both in terms of casualties and economically (the average Russian Company having plunged 64% in stock value). The Crescent League, which, while having the best-equipped army, had the smallest one, had lost up to 13% of its standing army, and was more than content to keep its gains in Chechnya. Everett, the unlikely ally to the Taiping Empire and the original drafter of this crusade, had been, like Taiping, been less-affected Economically. But as most Democracies are in what some Americans in self loathing refer to as the "ADD population", rallies had already begun clamoring for peace. Britannia and Cascadia, having torn each other apart for formerly British Cascadian territory in Canada, were also in a bad position, Cascadia being also exposed to a direct attack. It was for this reason that Catholic Holy Emperor of Taiping Li Yun accepted Pope Benedict's invitation for a peace convention in the new Papal Residence in Manila. However, it was clear that both sides had important Agendas.
