【 A.D. 2071 】
-O.C.U.- The O.C.U. government has managed to seal a wartime agreement with the U.S.N. In order to protect the environment, a ban has been enacted on the use of all chemical and nuclear weapons, as well as any other weapons of mass destruction with environmentally disastrous potential. Orchestrating the agreement was the Peace Mediation Organization (PMO) based out of the Republic of Zaftra, submitting proposals to both sides in the spirit of the global push for nuclear disarmament. However, several analysts have suggested that the O.C.U., realizing that a weakened U.S.N. military might resort to using such weapons as a last-ditch attempt to win the war, may have cooperated with the PMO to limit the U.S.N. Army's offensive capabilities. Analysts surmise that the U.S.N., unable to oppose the will of the international community, had no choice but to sign the agreement.
