[THIS IS AN ALTERNATIVE HISTORY SCENARIO] - After the Second World War, Indonesia declared independence. This declaration sparked an invasion by the British and Dutch Empires to restore colonial rule over Indonesia. - In 1965, the Netherlands deemed the Dutch East Indies as too "costly" and unmanageable, deciding to leave the East Indies and restore Indonesian rule. - However, a small group of white settlers feared reprisal after independence and launched a successful coup d'état against the colonial government to establish an apartheid system similar to South Africa and Rhodesia. - This coup and new system placed the EIF at odds with the world, including Malaysia, which funded rebels. - The EIF launched a devastating offensive in Malaysia, leading to a proxy war between the EIF and the Soviet Army.
