Emperor Li Xiang of Sizzle died of a stroke after many years of rebuilding Sizzle's position to the world stage, leading to his 13-year-old son Chonglin Xiang being crowned as the new emperor. Lineland, despite acknowledging that the two hated each other, offered to launch a joint invasion of Sizzle in order to destroy their common enemy. Lineland rushed across the borders while Yakamoto landed across the coastlines, with Lineland quickly rushing to the royal palace in Beijing which lead to the capture of Chonglin Xiang. With the emperor captured, prince Zhengsheng Xiang (who was 7) and anew regency was formed at Shangri'La, forcing Lineland and Yakamoto to push even deeper into the country while Lineland began holding referendums regarding the conclusion of its provisional government. Sizzle's instability also allowed Taiwan to break away under a democratic government, only to be immediately overthrown by their former dictator Tsai Qin, who brought them to war against Sizzle. The results of Lineland's referendums would soon come in, concluding in a victory for the Linelandic Communist Party who declared the 'Linelandic Soviet Republic', only for them to be immediately overthrown by the Second Linelandic White Guard in a coup which saw the formation of the 'Second Linelandic Empire', which prompted the Linelandic Red Guard to attempt a counter-coup which forced the White Guard to relocate to Ozergorod, leaving Linasgrad under the control of the Soviets. The Empire remained aligned to the efforts against Sizzle, vowing to deal with the communists later, despite failing to drag Yakamoto into their internal issues. While the north saw significant success, Sizzle retook all occupied coastlines in the south, which lead into Sizzle launching a surprise invasion of Kyushu as well as launching a major counteroffensive on all fronts. Polsk then accidentally nuked Beijing for some reason, which Sizzle wasn't really affected by as it was still occupied.
The entirety of Sizzle's government functions were seized by the Regency consisting of generals and politicians at this point with consent by the child-acting-emperor Zhengsheng, leading to some controversy. The increased discipline from these reforms allowed Sizzle to launch a major counteroffensive that pushed the Yakamotians and Linelandics back, leaving the two confused and without a plan beyond trying to support rebels and gathering more allies. Polsk demanded the fighting stop at once or it would 'go sicko mode' without clarifying on who they were or why they were here, coinciding with Polskan ships entering Sizzlean airspace. As Yakamoto contacted Synora for aid, Polsk joined the war against Sizzle, which prompted Sizzle to align itself to the Linelandic Soviets, which made a revolt against Sizzle in Minguo align with Yakamoto and Lineland. Polsk began sending down dropships into Sizzle, though many of them were shot down which prompted Polsk to begin glassing Sizzle with nuclear weapons and beams. A million Polskan soldiers rushed thru Anakistan while Sizzle's very outdated ships prepared to fight back. Lineland began dedicating forces to hoolding back the Sizzlean offensive into its land, while Polsk managed to cross the Tian Shan mountains with 2 million lightly armoured Anakistani conscripts. Polsk began clearing out the Turkestani resistance before bombarding Sizzle's coastlines enough to send in soldiers to invade, conscripting many civillians into their army, which was enough to mitigate Sizzle's instability as an 'united front against the invaders' formed, so Polsk began sending Ghost Soldiers to assassinate major leaders. Polsk pulled in more reserves to deal with the Turkestanis while fighting continued between Sizzle, Lineland, and Minguo in Sizzle's favour. Sizzle stopped advancing into Lineland as it focused on the other fronts as Polsk's Minotaur Class ships bombarded Sizzle's major industries and infrastructure. Polsk suddenly began retreating, so Sizzle cautiously advanced as they feared a surprise attack as they suspected that intel about internal dissent could be fake. Polsk turned around and launched a massive surprise offensive against Sizzle and Turkestan, forcing many Turkestanis to illegally enter Sozzle, leading to them joining the war against Sizzle. Polsk began giving its soldiers 'non-addictive meth' to try to advance quicker while it kept assassinating major political figures with Ghosts. Polsk demanded Lineland do more, but it was revealed that Polsk had gravely underestimated the size of Sizzle's military, so Polsk decided to use nukes while Lineland launched their winter offensive as Polsk deployed millions of soldiers and battle androids. Anakistan was left quite leaderless, so a Lizarbian lady by the name of Luciena Ruiz seized power and was immediately assassinated by Polsk and replaced by a puppet administering the 'Ducal Realm Executive Office'. Polsk's nukings lead to people starting to flock to the Turkestani resistance again, so Polsk tried to stop this with propaganda and giving people drug addictions by legalizing all narcotics. This lead to protests by major muslim religious figures in Turkestan, which made Polsk responded to by banning all drugs and declaring a 'jihad against drug users' and moving their armies from attacking Sizzle over to Turkestan. Sozzle made some propaganda, so Polsk put it in the national museum, gave copies of it to every citizen, and declared it the 'greatest peace of art in the galaxy', so Sozzle thanked them before Polskan Turkestan denounced Sozzle for being drug addicts which Sozzle thought was expected because 'other homosapiens cause Sozzleans to calcify'. Polsk kept attacking the insurgents, building infrastructure, integrating conquered peoples, and bringing in better weapons as bombardments continued.
Sizzle began a major bombing campaign in an unsuccessful attempt to pressure its enemies to back down as it began asserting LSR control in the Linelandic lands it occupied as a part of the 'Treaty of Perezatski'. Sizzle began attacks onto Honshu as it advanced in Lineland, prompting Yakamoto to set up defences at Nagoya. As Lineland kept losing, people began to believe that the 'Empire' was not a government capable of leading them to victory, leading to worries that Lineland may fracture again as the 'Republic of Shipeniye' revolted and Yamalia intervened on Sizzle's side. While Yakamoto kept planning, the fall of Linasgrad to Pro-Sizzlean forces. Lineland effectively imploded as Tritonian-inhabited regions and Minority-ethnicity regions broke away from Linelandic control (with break-away attempts in Sizzlean-controlled areas such as Perzat-Tritoniya failing), allowing the LSR to push in, depose the empire, and execute military-dictator Anatolii Volkov before withdrawing from the breakaway states, leaving only a small holdout of Imperial forces centred around Rurikpavlovsk.
