To be a 🤓, culturally the wardens are Gaelic/Celtic and visually French with some German. They have Allies that resemble Finland culturally. The colonials are culturally Italian/Roman and visually an amalgamation of the Soviets, Americans, British, and Italians. I don’t think anyone resembling german people even exist in the games lore.

[@anonimo2932]

Don't worry, Foxhole lore doesn't have anything in common with ww1/ww2 The colonial are a foreigner forces that have establish colony in Caovia and the wardens are another foreigner forces that have establish a capital in Caovia (Abbandoned Ward)

[@sirboomsalot4902]

No, Wardens are the original inhabitants of Caoiva. The devs have confirmed they are *not* the military of Nicnevin, which is to the north and an ally of Caoiva, or any other nations in the Nevish Alliance. Though the Caoivish government in exil is in Nicnevin (Whedon’s Row). Abandoned Ward, originally called Sun Haven, was the original Caoivish capital before it was taken in (I think) the Boreal Wars

[@sirboomsalot4902]

3:06 For context, these defenses are actually AI (you can tell by the size of the flag whether or not the AI is active or not). But there are also people who will sit on defenses for hours on end lmao

[@jotunmania1346]

For people who is planning to buy the game and start playing it, I recommend to play in the Charlie Shard/server because it is intended for beginners and seems like very chill server to play in. Able shard/server is where the sweaty tryhards are playing. The queue there is horrendous, but it is what considered by many "the war that counts". it is totaly different experience, which may improve or worsen your experience. But the main thing about Foxhole is to communicate, which is one of interesting main points of Foxhole.

Technically the land is neithers, but the wars killed the Warden ally that owned it.

[@sirboomsalot4902]

@@Luis519RSMost of the map is Caoiva, which was inhabited mostly by its native peoples who are the Wardens. Some of the south of the map is Veli, at least the northern half of it. Long story short, Veli was a monarchy and the people revolted, with Caoiva supporting the monarchy and Mesea (origin of the Colonials) supporting the people. Most of the Colonials fighting Caoiva today are Velians. We don’t know if any other peoples who inhabited the land

[@Luis519RS]

Bro, Half the map is a territory that didnt belong to either faction but who sided originally with Caoiva. The Colonials quite literally invade it during a civil war prompted by the bested interest of both factions. Which starts the entire Warden Colonial War which the Colonials won taking Veli. But Veli was neither Warden or Colonial to begin with. And I dont think its fair to say Veli's population is the same considering how bad we hear the original war was. Its more likely the current Velians are colonial settlers than original Velians. @@sirboomsalot4902

Wardens especially the French players demand you retract your statement of them being the nazi faction. Yes we use an mp34 and Mauser pistol and luger and our armored cars resemble kamfwagens and the highwayman tank functions like a panzer 2................................. But everything else is French, I swear. Heck all our stuff is named after the Irish like O'Brian and Callahan.

[@Iymarra]

Yeah, wardens aren't nazis and collies aren't allies. Wardens are an empire that got invaded by the collie republic. Wardens have German-French aesthetics, collies have british-american? Today I spent 8 hours supplying mines. It has been a good day.

1:10 *Angry lore man noises* Jokes aside, the Wardens are actually the defensive faction in the lore. While the “Warden = Germany” jokes usually aren’t too much of a problem, the issue is that we usually have to deal with neo-Nazis more often because they come in thinking we are the Germans (which isn’t too common but still).
