Leaders of the various Western powers meet in the newly reunited British Prime Minister's call for "a new alliance of Western nations." NATO and the European Common Market are dissolved in favor of the Western Alliance. Leaders of various Soviet political and ethnic groups meet at Kiev. These representatives formally dissolve the USSR and create seven independent Russian States in a loose confederation. They are:

The Democratic Republic of European Russia (formerly the Ukraine, Byelorussia, Moldavia, and parts of the USSR)

The People's Union of Kazakh

The Islamic Republic or Turkmen

The Soviet Socialist Republic

The Democracy of Yakut

The two scientists are laughed out of their jobs and their profession. Professor Takayoshi Fuchida marries Katherine Kurita. Many generations later, the descendants of this marriage will rule one of the largest and most powerful interstellar realms. General Motors patents first commercially available fusion reactor.

2022

China, the Hong Kong Collective, and the recently combined Korean States announce their intention to form the Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere. This action is seen as a direct threat to the Western Alliance. Both sides actively court Japan, the one country that could make the ACPS a rival to the Alliance. International tensions escalate.

2023

January-
The ACPS announces a naval blockade of Japan to "better present its case to the Japanese people, free them from the influence of Western venom-spreaders." The heavy pacifism of the Japanese leads them to decide not to fight the blockade unless absolutely necessary.

April-
Supplies airlifted from the Western Alliance are insufficient to make up for the effects of the ACPS blockade. The Japanese government collapses. Public sentiment is split evenly between the two alliances. The Emperor of Japan assumes temporary control and imposes rationing. He requests major assistance from the Western Alliance.

May-
First Western Alliance relief convoy leaves Pearl Harbor. It is composed of ships from both the U.S. and the Free Soviet Nations navies. ACPS says it will not back down. The Chinese cruiser Iron Flower runs over a surfaced Western Alliance submarine that had been scouting for the relief convoy. The submarine, the USS Bremerton, sinks with all hands. The Akagi and the Kongo, the two Japanese Defense Force destroyers closest to the incident, challenge the Iron Flower and order it to surrender. The Chinese cruiser opens fire. In the subsequent battle, the two Japanese ships destroy the Iron Flower, but not before the Akagi is sunk. The Japanese public sides with the Western Alliance. The Emperor frees the Japanese Defense Forces from its strict rules of engagement. The JDF begins immediate military actions against the blockading ships of the ACPS. The relief convoy enters Tokyo Harbor. Western Alliance forces in the Free Russian States and in the member-states of India are placed on a war footing. As both sides gird for war, the Japanese launch an intensive diplomatic effort.

2024

The Osaka Agreement is announced early in the year. The accord provides for the entry of Japan, China, and the Korean States into the Western Alliance, with the proviso that they retain the power to resolve some regional questions without need for Alliance approval. The Western Alliance accepts Japan, China, the Korean States, and the seven Russian States as members. Takayoshi Fuchida, his credibility as a physicist destroyed by his controversial work, returns in disgrace to Japan. He and his wife, Katherine Kurita, set up a small stationery and origami supply shop in the poorer section of Tokyo.

In the wake of the bloodless victory at Coventry, Steiner-Davion proposed that the Inner Sphere powers assemble a united force and take the war to the Clans. The leaders of the Inner Sphere greeted this proposal enthusiastically and, on 3 October 3058, the leaders of every Inner Sphere power assembled on the world of Tharkad to formally discuss the matter. During that meeting, Precentor Martial Anastasius Focht proposed that the leaders form a united front to face the Clans by creating a unified political body and a coalition military force. The assembled leaders agreed and took the historic step of drafting a new Star League Constitution. Sun-Tzu Liao, Chancellor of the Capellan Confederation, was appointed to the ceremonial post of First Lord. His selection symbolically raised him to equal status with the leaders of the larger and more powerful Great Houses, and served as a strong show of Inner Sphere solidarity. Almost immediately, the House leaders and their strategists began to devise an ambitious plan to claim the offensive in the war against the Clans. Thus was born Operation Bulldog, a massive offensive to drive Clan's Smoke Jaguar from the Inner Sphere. Operation Bulldog was a complete success and by 18 September 3059, every Smoke Jaguar world in the former occupation world was pacified by an SLDF garrison.
