The Rum War (unofficial title) was a conflict that began on January 16 2016 when the forces of Mensa HQ, Guardian and Seven Kingdoms declared war on Arrgh. The Bored War, a global conflict, later broke out concurrently after Mensa HQ launched mass raids on Vanguard who Arrgh had a mercenary protection contract with. Peace was announced between Arrgh & Fark, who originally entered in the Bored War, with the involved parties on February 10, 2016. No mention of Political Pirates was in the peace agreement.
Background
Prior to the war, a group of members broke off from Arrgh, forming the Political Pirates and attacked Guardian among other alliances. In response to these attacks and allegations that the Political Pirates were still related to Arrgh and that Arrgh had temporarily stashed some of Political Pirate's bank. Following this a coalition of Mensa, Guardian, and the Seven Kingdoms declared war on Arrgh! on the 16th of January.
