Mao Civil War

In Africa, civil wars are not uncommon, and the Mao in Chad is no exception. In the initial stages of the First Tiberium War, two villages in Mao were engaged in a ruthless civil war, and one of them allied with the Brotherhood of Nod. In order to quell the disorder and put an end to hostilities, UNGDI moved a peacekeeping force into the area and attempted to settle the matters.

However, as they entered the Nod friendly village, the denizens treated them with resentment and open hostility. Furthermore, GDI did not stop the GDI-aligned village from attacking their nemesis. Thus with the war nearly lost, Nod forces were called in to equalize the situation, as they saw it.

The Brotherhood moved a strike force in the area, consisting of a squad of minigunners, rocket infantry, a few Chenowths and recon bikes, which supplemented the firepower of the villagers, eradicated the GDI presence in the village and proceeded to invade and raze the opposing village.

GDI handling of the situation inflamed world opinion briefly, and gave further ammunition to GDI critics. It also helped Nod recruiting immensely.
