The race for galactic conquest has started! 11 different planets from the StarCraft galaxy, 11 different countries, and only one will remain standing. Already two planets have been conquered and two nations vanquished.
This morning, WGTour's The Mercury has reported the fall of the Czech Republic's Korhal to the nation of Ukraine. Ukraine apparently had, "hoisted up their flag high and partied into the night." This was no doubt a trying victory for the Ukranians from Mar Sara as they were missing their two most prominent players White-Ra and Strelok. However, even without them the Mara Sara Ukranians were able to defeat the Korhal Czechs 2-1.

On the same day Mexico, the proud colonists of Tarsonis, intiated an assault on Moria, but this proved to be ineffective as it seemed to have hardly dented the Hungary defences. The Mexican assault would end up losing 0-3 in their match against Hungary.

As it stands there are only two countries which have conquered another planet, one being Ukraine and the other Germany. Germany stood tall as the representatives of Earth, and they were quick to vanquish the proud delegates of Aiur, Australia. As a true Praetor of the Protoss, the only player to win a match up in the battle of Earth vs Aiur was
Legionnaire who went 2-0 in his matches. However this was not enough to help defend Aiur from the invasion force as Aiur's defences fell losing 1-2.| Germany 2 > 1 Australia | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
