=== The Dema Conflict ===

Following the announcement of the Insurrection, the Canadian government sent $50,000 worth of military supplies to Dema and Vetomo to quash any possible rebellion in Vetomo Sud. Vetomo Sud got word of this outrageous ruse, and sent 4 men to attack the capital in Ottawa. three of the four men were arrested at the border, however one man made it through the border and traveled 120 km north to Ottawa and detonated a barrel of gunpowder outside of the Tax offices where 29 were killed and 340 were injured following the blast that ripped through the city center. This act stunned the Canadian people and the government sent 5,000 troops into Dema to help with the additional 6,000 against the 9,000 in Vetomo Sud, and a full blown attack started on the night of September 5th 1938. In a matter of weeks, 500 had died on the Vetomo Sud side, and dozens on the Dema and Vetomo side. the conflict was mainly street warfare and battlefields were scarce, after a year of fighting, Vetomo Sud released chemical weapons on Vetomo's lower side and many citizens died. This crossed the line, and on October the 18th 1939, Dema launched a full blown air raid over Vetomo sud and the city center was destroyed buried under ash from burning buildings. This one attack caused over 1500 to die in a matter of hours , severely slowing down Vetomo Sud. the next three years of the war were quiet and fighting, while sporatic and often occuring in Dema central, didn't phase the populous. This was until April 20 1943 when Vetomo Sud had launched an invasion of 5,000 men into Vetomo's lower side and the army occupied Vetomo for a year until the conflict ended with Vetomo Sud being pushed back and one final airstrike against its rail routes caused the city and government to collapse and a surrender from Vetomo Sud. This Conflict ended on May 9th 1944 with 19,300 Dead, and thousands more displaced and injured in Vetomo Sud and Vetomo's lower end
