Belka Did Nothing Wrong: OBC is Fake News!

Belka is a peaceful country in Strangereal that has been slandered by mainstream media over its past actions in the Belkan War and other conflicts. It's time to stop with the Belkaphobia because #NotAllBelkans are warmongers. This video will debunk the fake news spread about Belka.

I'm also thinking part about an Osean politician who wants to reveal the truth too, showing his people that his country also contributed to the Belkan War.

[@Freedomlander_101]

I actually have a concept: The protagonist is a pilot named *Rohann Schimdt* A 26 year old Belkan pilot who survived the Belkan war.. But his family didn't.. All his family members (Dad, mom, elder brother and uncle) died in the bombing runs of hoffnung and Rohann was triying to stop the allied bombings from killing his family.. He failed and he had a severe depression until January 2 1996.. Rohann does not accept the defeat of Belka and the loss of his family so he allies with a friend named Franz Hopper and a Belkan General as his commanding officer. He creates a Squadron named "Red Slayers" with his friend Franz. And he will also destroy with him important Osean objectives such as high profile personalities or experimental facilites and try to recapture the Belkan south ammunition factories claimed now by Osean troops. Like in Ace combat Zero, he willbe able to fight Osean and Ustio fighter aces. His favourite plane is the SU47 Berkut. The thing would be set In 1996. And he would fight Cipher in the final battle in the Valais Mountain to revenge his family. What do you guys think? *IS NOT OFFICIAL, MAYBE I WILL ADD MORE ABOUT THIS CONCEPT*

I mean this is just geopolitics. Osea recognizes it faces 3 potential existential threats. 1. Yuktobania: the only true rival to Osea in terms of resources. 2. Belka: due to proximity, and the fact it is the only power that Osea's Navy can't stop due to the land connection. 3. Erusea(unified Usea): A unified Usea would also rival Osea in terms of resources, and Erusea is well positioned to unify Usea So Osea has to have a strategy to either ham-string or co-opt these powers, so lets examine Osea's strategy with these three powers. 1. Yuktobania: wage a cold war and then later co-opt them into maintaining a G2 World Order where Osea and Yuktobania both have a vested interest in maintaining the global order in order to prevent the rise of new challengers to their shared hegemony. 2. Belka: Take advantage of Osea's economic strength to drive Belka to financial ruin with an arms race and use this crisis to weaken Belka and take the border regions that give Osea access to resources and a good defensive buffer. Ultimate goal is knock Belka from Great Power Status. 3. Erusea(unified Usea): Become involved in internal Usean politics and make security agreements to keep Usea divided (Usean Rebellion), support the ISAF forces with material support in the Continental War(how do you think Mobius 1 went from F-4E to F-22A), and finally send Osean troops as part of the IUN-PKF to keep Erusea down and make sure they can't take over all of Usea.

Osea was neutral during the continental war (and about 2/3 were Harling's presidency). Are the ISAF gets support from the Oseans, Acepedia didn't say anything about it-and like SlyCooperFan1 said, ISAF isn't Osea's payroll. Also, for (possible issue(you can skip this one out) ) the ISEV, it was to restore Erusea post-apocalyptic situation (even though they didn't believe this and think Osea wanted to exploit their resources-similar to what Osean did to Belka)

Belkan, but with a plot twist of this Belkan being a Harling sympathizer and fighting against a post-Harling Osea, which took a deep dive in a corruption and, basically, abandoned everything Harling stood for (which isn't so far-fetched, with how they were planning to kill Trigger the second he's no longer needed, not to mention the penal squadrons). Might make for a good moment "WHY AM I, A BORN AND RAISED BELKAN, FIGHTING TO UPKEEP THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF VINCENT HARLING, AN OSEAN PRESIDENT, WHILE YOU, OSEANS, ARE DOING YOUR DAMNEDEST TO ERASE THE PEACE AND UNITY HE STOOD FOR?!".

Here's the thing, and spoilers: The former president that Trigger accidentally shot down thanks to Erusea's (and Belka's) IFF spoofing tech is Osean, and he just wanted to actually do something positive. Whatever happened after his administration was done is up for debate.

[@Loliwut]

while most of this is true, the 8492/229th had not only direct ties to the Belkan military structure, but to the Belkan government itself through the OADF aggressor program. Grabacr was formed almost entirely of former South Belkans who resented partnership with Osea, and the Belkan government chose to submit them to the program despite their very open disdain for Osea, with the knowledge that the grey men were already an existential threat to peaceful relations with their much larger neighbor, and not releasing such information at any point in the conflict to them.

[@adventwolfbane]

The Grey Men were secret very few people in the Belkan Government were even aware of the existence of them. Also those squadrons were taken from Belka by the winners in 1996 after the reformation of the air force so they were never part of the new belkan military for any real length of time. If the two super powers were stupid enough to take pilots that were obvious in their anger towards them they have no one to blame but themselves. Those squadrons also were not just made up of Belkans they had natives of the two nations be cycled through them and part of the squadrons for long periods of time.

I never understood why the developers shill for Osea so hard in the game as the "good guys" while simultaneously portraying them as absolutely cutthroat geopolitical bullies in all of their lore. I mean they literally just annex sovereign territory from their enemies and brutally exploit them economically during peace time. They're like a Victorian colonial empire.

[@SpaceFox93]

These videos you make exploring the lore of Strangereal are always fascinating. One thing I've always wondered about is the connection between Fortress Intolerance and Megalith. All the Ace Combat maps after 04 always show the Megalith ruins on Twinkle Islands but omit Fortress Intolerance in North Point. Considering they both share extremely similar designs, it's very likely that they were built from an external source for both nations. However, ISAF claimed Megalith was something the Eruseans developed (propaganda maybe?). We know that Yuktobania essentially copied the Dragonet-class submarines from AC2, so if Erusea did develop Megalith themselves, how did they get the design of Fortress Intolerance from North Point?

[@SlyAceZeta]

Fortress Intolerance was probably wiped off the map since it was located in a country as important as North Point, whereas Megalith is situated on a remote island. But, you know, the real reason is that Fortress Intolerance wasn't needed on the AC5 map, which AC7 just copied. :P But yes, Erusea constructed Megalith as a weapon of mass destruction.

[@ThejollyFrenchman]

I'm pretty sure Fortress Intolerance was built by the very militaristic generals of the FCU and the other Usean states, who launched a coup. By the time of AC4, the guys responsible for Fortress Intolerance had all probably been locked up for years, or executed for treason.

I really hope we see a future Ace Combat where the Oseans are the Bad guys. Maybe Strangereal Skynet or some other machine revolution go off at the same time. Or how about an Emmerian led coalition against the tyrant. Ps. Osea is the Only country to have kicked thw Asses of both Major Powers Belka and Erusea and the Superpower Yuktobania , that means any fight against them would have to make the other smaller countries gang up on it. Kinda like the Mackinder Heartland Thesis but in Strangereal

It kind of reminded me of SlyCooperFan1's Everything Wrong With Ace Combat series in tone and style.

[@motorcyclekidd2131]

Just wanted to say real quick, the point of ace combat is to show you EVERYONE is the bad guy. Yes osea increased economic strife, this is one way to look at it. But a response to the cold war mutually going on accidentally causing a recession in Belka isn't their fault. Nations seceding is, but don't you think at this point those nations wanted to be free? Their countries economy is terrible and Belka seems to care the most about Nord Belka and not it's territories. To ustio, osea is a saviour that pulled them out of an economic crisis. The great lakes company was a dick move, but we also have absolutely no idea is south Belka was originally osean territory before the 1905 war. We have no idea what Belka did to undermine osea. And we have no idea how much of this company involved private corporations rather than the actual government. Both sides did many things wrong. But starting a war with two nuclear nations in response is not the correct decision. Trying to reclaim lands that clearly wanted independence isn't right either. And oseas all out invasion of Belka, while not a correct action either, is justifiable since they needed to install a non-extremist regieme that would not start another war, which is fair since they did not start this war. The indescriminate bombings as shown were not authorized by command, but instead the acts of soldiers who were incredibly angry at Belka, for possibly killing civilians in osea or the hatred in general of a country that has left you alone for almost 80 years stepping into your country with weapons, while these individuals were having a very good time with things the way they were. The point? There is no good and bad in war. People get angry, people react. But osea did not start this war, they didn't ask any countries to secede that did not want to. And they are not the agressors for causing a recession by accident. You can blame them for the great lakes fiasco, but that doesn't justify invading not one, not two, but something like five or six countries all at once.

I've got to say, that was a very well put together argument with a lot of details and history. Though, I can't say Belka didn't do anything wrong at all. War in itself or the use of nukes are inherently wrong, but this at least casts a light that many of Belka's actions were at least justified. Saying that one entity's actions are not wrong because the other's were worse or more numerous is a fallacy. History is never black and white, but an endlessly complex and tangled mass.

[@SlyAceZeta]

This. Exactly this. Belka's point of view on things is one side of the story, and it just furthers the entire anti-war message of the Ace Combat franchise as a whole. The fact that all of this has to be explained, and all of this is still just one side, _and_ this all still involves so many civilian and military casualties, is exactly what these games are trying to do: inform us of the horrors of war. "History belongs to the victor," after all.
