Ohio-Virginia War of 2097

The Ohio-Virginia War of 2092 was the latest in a series of conflicts between the respective countries (state) of Ohio and Virginia. The two states laid claim to the coal resources found on their respective borders, and so viewed the other as competition.

Prior to the outbreak of war, Ohio had armed the oppressed Negro population of Virginia. The War of 2092 began with a formal declaration, followed by a brief period of inactivity. Ohio launched the first attack, releasing a mutated strain of measles into Virginia. With the state paralyzed under quarantine and people dying in the hospitals, Virginia vowed vengeance, launching a bombing raid.
