But as they expanded over the Solar System, who gets what caused a lot of friction. It was getting to a boiling point. The war started over land rights on Dione, one of Saturn's moons. Basically, Earth forces forcibly removed Martian settlers because Earth "claimed" it first. Many Martians died and some die hard Martian nationalists with the backing of some part of its government strapped a few boosters onto a few asteroids and caused significant damage on Earth as retaliation. Earth ships orbiting Mars were ordered to nuke the 2 Martian orbital stations. Over the next 70 some days, Earth and Martian warships moved into position to engage each other. The war officially ended with a stalemate, but in reality Earth came out victorious, they just didn't have the resources to take on Mars on the ground. 反正通过斗争地球和火星之间的关系还算可以不算僵,地球也让火星独立了。但是,当他们在宇宙扩张时,天知道会造成什么样的摩擦?这种关系将到达一个沸点。说回80天战争,战争开始于Dione的土地权利,萨图恩的一个卫星。地球部队强行拆除火星定居者,因为地球声称首先“占有”这个地方。许多人死亡,一些顽固的火星的民族主义者与火星政府的部分支持者,在几个小星星上绑几个助推器要撞向地球在地球引起重大损失作为报复。地球飞船于是就奉命来解决这事,出发向着核2火星轨道站。在接下来的70天里,地球和火星战舰进入了彼此交战。战争以僵局正式结束,但实际上地球取得了胜利,他们只是没有足够的资源在火星地面。 Luna was a part of Earth. The wildcat colonies in the belt and beyond Saturn remained neutral. 月球自古以来就是地球的一部分(大误),在这次战争中保持中立。
