Description
History
Lighthouse War
During the Lighthouse War, Expo City was located in Erusean-occupied territory. It was later liberated by Osean forces following Operation Dragon Breath.[1]
In December 2019, Osea and Erusea signed a ceasefire treaty at the Expo City Conference. The treaty marked the official end of the Lighthouse War.[2]
Intercorporate War
During the simulated Intercorporate War, Expo City was the site of multiple conflicts. Neucom Incorporated always starts off the war by flying a group of R-501 Rhincodon transports over the city, which UPEO views as part of Neucom's large-scale strikes against General Resource Limited. UPEO always shoots down the transports and its escorts.[3]
Every following event involving Expo City depends on Nemo's actions in prior battles in the war:
- If Nemo remains with UPEO for the entire conflict, Nemo and Erich Jager conclude the war over Expo City by shooting down the UI-4053 Sphyrna,[4] a squadron of Ouroboros aircraft, and Gilbert Park.[5]
- If Nemo joins General Resource and destroys a hydrofoil at Megafloat,[6] Abyssal Dision takes Nemo to Expo City to locate the X-49 Night Raven, which Dision believes is now in UPEO's hands.[7] If Nemo then joins Ouroboros, Dision takes Nemo to Expo City to shoot down a squadron of UPEO aircraft and Gilbert Park.[8]
- If Nemo joins Neucom and then joins Ouroboros, Dision sends Nemo and Cynthia Bridgitte Fitzgerald to Expo City to kidnap Rena Hirose from UPEO.[9]
