Israel is a country in West Asia.
History[]
- Israel was established in 1948.
- On September 10th 2004, the 10 Minute War would occur, where Libya would attack Israel with chemical weapons. Israel would respond with three nuclear bombs launched onto major cities, thus beating Libya into submission.[1]
- On April 8th 2012, the Israeli goverment would order the evacuation of Jerusalem's Old City due to a dramatic increase of active spiritual manifestations.[2]
- On October 31st 2016, the Israeli prime minister would be killed alongside the president of Russia and Prime Minister of Great Britain.[3]
- On October 14th 2034, the Alliance for Allah would attack Israel alongside other countries.[4] Israel would survive the Great Jihad thanks to aid from miltech corp, effective intelligence, superior magic, nuclear capabilities, and unexpected support from some Palestinians (who mostly refused to join the AfA).
- On June 2nd 2046, a massive mana warp would cause Israel to abandon Jerusalem.[5]
- On July 23rd 2046, the United Nations would establish an Ecumenical Council to rule Jerusalem.[5]
Politics[]
After Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat died in 2004, politics changed radically on both sides. Arafat's successor accepted Israel, and Palestine got its autonomy.
Both peoples claimed Jerusalem as their capital but, in early 2012, astral disturbances and spirit attacks forced the authorities to evacuate and close the city for 40 days. Additional evacuations occur regularly in the following years. In the 2046 mana warp, the United Nations seized the holy city before anyone else could.
Geography[]
The West Bank sits between the security fence in the west and the Jordan valley to the east. The Gaza Strip extends all the way to the Suez Canal. Underground tunnels and trains run from Suez to Gaza proper. Israel took over the Sinai Desert a while back and evacuated most of its Egyptian population. The world accepted this move because the Suez Canal stayed under international control.
The Israeli government owns a launch site in Palmachim.[6]
Some areas of Israel are still too polluted from the 10 Minute War of 2004 to be livable. Since the cost of cleaning up the residue is too high, the government simply evacuated and barricaded off these areas. Tests show that most of the areas will be safe to live in again by 2075.[7]
Institutions[]
The notorious intelligence agency of Israel is known by the name Mossad le-Modiin ule-Tafkidim Meyuhadim (Hebrew: ×××”× ××××××¢×× ×××Ŗפק×××× ×××××××, "Institute for Intelligence and Special Tasks").[8]
