1975 Eastern Minecraftia Bombings

The 1975 Eastern Minecraftia Bombings (１９７５年東方のマインクラフト国爆撃) took place overnight between May 31 and June 1 of 1975. It was a major bombing incident in New Saitama and Minecraftia Province that was motivated by far-right extremists from the Soviet Union and Cuba. The bombings led to Minecraftia entering the Cold War to get revenge on them.

A total of thirty bombs were detonated, eight of them were in New Saitama where it started, 21 of them were in Minecraftia Province, while the last one was in western Gatashima south of Lucky Lagoon City. At least seven of the bombs were reported to have been suicide bombings. A total of 76 people, including seven of the perpetrators, lost their lives.

New Saitama
The first bombing took place at 8:59 PM EMST in northeastern New Saitama, when a Soviet suicide bomber exploded near a power pole, causing a widespread fire that crossed the provincial border into Minecraftia. A dozen lives were lost when the first suicide bomber exploded. Six minutes later, at 9:05 PM, a Cuban bomber detonated a bomb in a forest, causing a forest fire that required evacuation. 40 homes were burnt down alongside multiple vehicles.

Twelve minutes later, at 9:17 PM, another Soviet suicide bomber blew up near the New Saitama-Minecraftia Province border, killing 16 people and causing extensive damage from the fire it left behind. Eleven minutes later, a second Cuban bomber detonated another bomb ten miles south where the first bombing occurred, knocking over homes and farm buildings. An hour later, a third Soviet suicide bomber blew up in Northeastern New Saitama, spreading the damage even further and killing an additional 18 people.

Within the next two hours, Cuban bombers detonated six bombs in central New Saitama, killing only one and damaging property.

Minecraftia Province
The first bomb was detonated south of Minecraftia City at 9:10 PM, with a second one thirteen minutes later. Two minutes later, a Soviet suicide bomber went off, spreading the damage further. Three people were killed and over 50 buildings were destroyed. Over the next few hours, bombs ripped through parts of central Minecraftia Province, killing an additional 26 people and destroying dozens of homes.

Gatashima
Two bombs by Cuban and Soviet bombers were detonated in western Gatashima south of Lucky Lagoon City. No fatalities were reported, but homes were destroyed. The first bomb was detonated at 10:25 PM, while the second one was detonated two hours later.

Reception
"So sad to hear about the bombings in New Saitama and Minecraftia Province. The king strongly condemns, alongside the US and Japan. I have confidence that we will handle the situation properly. I blame both Cuba and the Soviet Union's leaders on this!"

- Kenjirou Yamauchi, then King of Minecraftia, upon hearing this The bombings caused major outcry in Minecraftia, as well as El Kadsre, the United States, and Japan. As a result of the bombings, Kenjirou Yamauchi, then king of Minecraftia, paid two official state visits to then-US President Gerald Ford and then-Japanese Emperor Hirohito, who wanted to team up with them to fight the Soviet Union and Cuba. Two weeks after the bombings, the Minecraftian government officially announced they were going to declare war on both nations as a form of revenge.
