When Pineland’s military left Attica, they left billions in dons worth of military equipment behind for the Attican defenders to use. The Islamic Congress of Attica captured all of those weapons, making them the best-armed terrorist organization on the planet overnight. And they were in control of a nation filled with foreign aid workers, contractors, and other citizens of Pineland or their allies. Not to mention the Atticans who had worked with Pineland for twenty years. The Islamic Congress immediately began going door-to-door, looking for foreigners or those who worked with them. Stories of beatings and executions filtered out through contacts on the outside even before they conquered the capital. Centralia and other nations were quick to condemn Pineland’s administration for leaving their people in such a dangerous situation.
