The war in the South-East (2051), A series of short-ish stories Options

[The General]

Hello everyone.
I have returned to continue where i left off. But first i will try to explain the situation and what i'm going to do here in the text below:

This will be a story about the war in South-Eastern Europe that followed the end of the Third World War. The world powers were happy that WW3 was over, but not everyone in Europe was. The Confederation on the South-East was an emerging regional power that tok a passive role in this war, mostly securing the supply lines of the Russian troops and manning the buffer zones. The Balkan Confederation was at the peak of it's power with a self-sufficient economy and freshly equipped army. As they were not willing to simply stand asside while the 'big players' decide what is going to happen next, they scured a favorable position in the aftermath of WW3. BC couldn't invade the entire ECA, but it was able to occupy and hold their member nations that were nerby. On top of that it had nuclear missiles, fortifications, bunkers and a fairly good and highly motivated military. All that made their threat to continue the war a real possibility.
However, knowing that the Confederation wasn't really interested in the territories in western and central Europe, ECA and NAU tried to offer them favorable trade deals in exchange for signing the peace agreement. That offer was shot down as a cheap bribe, so ECA decided to sweeten the deal with allowing them to freely expand to the east without the great powers helping the other side. As the Balkan Confederation was trying to be the second Byzantine, and most of it's former territories were on the east and not west or north, this secret part of the deal was too sweet to refuse.

After the peace was signed, the Balkan Confederation announced three major military drills: the first was held in southern Bulgaria in September 2050, second in western Serbia in January 2051. and third was to be held in south-eastern Greece in April of the same year. The first part of the story will take place in the months between the second and third drills, and this fanfiction will be written in episodes as short-ish stories that follow diferent characters.
Hopefully i will finish writing all of the episodes by the end of the year, and i hope you'll enjoy reading them. Comments, advice and constructive criticism will as always be appreciated.
