As a UN Peacekeeper, you swore an oath to maintain a neutral, lasting peace in conflict zones all around the world. Thus, you said little when you received your orders to go to the island nation of Kuba Luba, a god forsaken land. It was ravaged by years of brutal war between the two ethnic groups, the Kubans and the Lubans who both claimed complete control over the nation as they cited centuries old tribal conflicts between their two peoples. The UN intervened once it became clear that any victory within the conflict would turn into a full genocide. Thus, a tense ceasefire was implemented and the UN split the island into two to keep the two peoples separate from each other through the establishment of various checkpoints that have to be crossed in order to get to the other side of the island. The first few months were pretty peaceful and calm as the people were struggling to piece together their lives back. But, now the people started to become frustrated again and there have been several attempted crossings by various ethnic militant groups.
Then one day, the radio went crazy. Who knows what happened exactly, but the major powers of the world found themselves in a large war that spanned the world. The UN found itself hamstrung as most members found themselves involved in one side of the war or the other. Thus, the UN Peacekeeping Mission in Kuba Luba now found itself stuck on the island with no support or aid on the way as the UN was effectively put on an indefinite hiatus. How will you continue to uphold your oath when centuries of hatred and violence threaten to bubble once more and you are the only thing that stands in its way?

So, this RP is inspired by the events of various events in the past several decades, particularly Rwanda and Somalia. The goal of this RP is to explore the dynamics of a very understaffed and under supplied UN force in the midst of a very dangerous situation where various warlords and groups will attempt to run wild and try to stir up another war while you, the RPer, will be in charge of a small observation post with a platoon of men in the Peacekeeping Zone. It is your job to try to navigate this mess and try to maintain peace... or perhaps just survive if things go really bad. This is just a preliminary post to see if anyone was interested! Warning this will be a violent and dark RP due to the themes involved.
