InCom Offer Sparks Heat Against the Republic
On October 12, 2142, InCom offered a military contract to Tejas, a state of the United States of Thessara. Tejas has prided itself on military autonomy for generations, holding strong at Thessara’s southern border against waves of Afflicted. Recently, these incursions have become stronger and harder to hold back, and more recently, the Afflicted have begun to overpower Tejas’s military ability to hold them back.
As the conflict has escalated, the federal government has become more and more concerned with defending Tejas and its citizens. Tejas has railed against these advances, claiming that Thessara is trying to take away their military autonomy, and enforce a stronger federal power in the state.
In an attempt to provide aid without provoking unnecessary suspicion, InCom went directly to the state of Tejas to offer its military aid. if InCom had gone to the Thessaran federal government, it’s a real possibility that Tejas would’ve believed InCom was on Thessara’s side, instead of believing InCom is providing the resources out of kindness.
InCom did not offer its aid to cause any distress to Thessara or Tejas. They only wished to provide humanitarian aid to Tejas, and in turn, help Thessara. InCom has no current plans to start a conflict with Thessara, and a military contract is not an opening act of war. InCom wishes to help without Tejas believing InCom is trying to take control for the federal government.
