The Third Battle of Midway is often seen as the of the Operation: Setting Sun as the General Idea of said operation was to make the Japanese fight on many fronts a northern front led by the Central United Systems Eurasian Army (led by former Soviets), The Pacific Front led by the 2nd, 5th, and 16th Army and Marine Corp (led by former Americans) and a land front in Southern Asia led by the 209th, 20th, and 332nd Army (led by many former European officials) with the First one being the pacific front.
The Third battle of Midway was imperative in being an Alliance of Nations victory as a naval invasion was the only foreesable option besides the massive Combine warships overhead Guarding the Japanese Emprire home island. While the Combine ships could be beaten back by the time that could happenthe Japanese could set up formidable naval and ground defences. When the Third battle Midway ended in a Alliance Victory Operation: Setting sun was going great as the Japanese Navy was obliterated and it could no longer aid their garrisons in the pacific.
Iranian Campaign:[]
With the victory on the Pacific theatre it was time to push the Axis out of Southern Asia and aid Eurasian Army that was pretty beaten up by the Japanese and Soviets, a lend lease program tried to help them but it wasn’t useful since the weapons weren’t chambered in accordance of Soviet standards. So a second front was needed to aid the Soviets so they focused mostly on Iran as it was the closest to their bases in Africa and also the could aid the Indian Rebels and also there was a small territory in the Middle East that wasn’t occupied by the Axis and could arm the local tribes in order to sabotage the German-Japanese supply route in order to higher the invasion’s chance of success as well as the Persian Resistance attack the Japanese bases in Japanese occupied Iran, as the Japanese weren’t used to the dry nature of the Desert of Lut so the day X of X Xxxx NE the British, alongside French, Belgian, Yemení and Omaní forces landed on the Southern coast of Iran and started to push inland, the Japanese Officer Insert Name responded and sent their dehydrated soldiers to the southern coast leaving unguarded the northern boarder, which the Soviets used to attack the Japanese from the back and pushed them out of Iran, the German garrison had to be withdrawn in order to aid the Afrika Korps in North Africa and the Middle East from the Riots that sparked
Mongolian Front and the liberation of Vladivostok: Now ready with the new weapons the Former Red Army launched an attack thorough the Far east to Kazakhstan so the Japanese could not concentrate their defenses and fight off an attack and the new technology made that the Soviet super heavy tanks like the multi turreted SMK, T-35 and T-28 that were mostly ineffective, slow and difficult to maneuver however with the new technology they became fierce forces by the Japanese, as Japan decided to invest most of their technological advancements in its now obliterated Navy and Army and Airforce so they couldn’t hold up the resistance and ceases Mongolia and the Vladivostok Area giving the Soviets a chance to air strike cities in the island of Hokkaido and Northern Honshu. Guadacanal Campaign: Indian-Japanese War
Japanese Campaign:[]
The Invasion of the Japanese empire's home islands in volved a strike of Tokyo and sourth eastern porviences. Landings at the begining of Operation Setting Sun mirrored that of Iwo Jima however resistance was much more resistnt right from the get go. A few Landings were repelled initally by firece Japanese soilders and civilian Militas. Even Children as young as Nine were fighting in their eyes the glory for the Emperor hirohito. During the invasion of Tokyo, Hirohito himself acted as a armmy commander for the Tokyo area, while inexperienced at first the Japanese Emperor soon learned the horrors and arts of war. The invasion of Japan in many history books was a blood bath in the Multiverse Alliance of Nations database. For every inch of land around 10,000 Allied soilders had to die. Tokyo did not fall and a northern invasion was planned. The Empire of the Rising Sun's navy protected mostly the north of Japan they currently occupied and parts of the South able to provide its own resistance. The Two Japans (Japanese Empire and the Rising sun) who have been rivals for so long fought for the rebels to make a revolt against the Japanese Empire. The A9M Zero replaced all older zeros with a newer third generation atmouspheric Jet fighter and Second generation modern tank put into production. Japanese infantry at the begining decades of the campaign fought with bolt action rifles and bayonets, though more and more expiremental and new weaponry came into both the army, Naval and air forces arms. Eventually the Japanese managed to stabilise the campaign that it was considered a failure by the Alliance of Nations. Though bloody warfare continued until the day the Multiverse burned

Indian campign[]
The Liberation of India, just like the Iran campign saw early success for the Alliance of nations. The Combine Indian proviencal army at the time has low tier combine weapons but had the usage of lasers and even plasma weapons. Although the Indians were fought on three fronts, however, thanks to Indias large pouplation and hailing the Combine as gods the liberation of India. Although the civilian population were easy to bring back into the fold it still required heavy reindoctrinal work and that the combine seemed to have heavily focused hearts and minds operations with the indian people and seemd to have taken quite an intrest in buddisim and some Kilomentircs lived among the Indinan population although only in a 1 in 10,000 ratio of the whole population of india although certian groups of the Indian population rose up in small to large scale rebellions. Inida put up a very very hard fight agaisnt the Alliance of Nations even building their own star ships and even some large space ships that haevn't been modified for space operations though these ships could not save the Indian proviencal army and it didn't have a navy.
Notes[]
Despite the fact that the Japanese had various technological advantages they still fought with Arisaka rifles, Type 11 and 97 LMG and various obsolete vechicles and weaponry
