It was a time in which humanity had set out into space in search of new lands.
It was given the name "Universal Century".
Humanity entrusted its future
to gigantic space colonies constructed around the Earth.
However, this second homeland was not their promised paradise.
Universal Century 0057.
In Side 3, the cluster furthest from Earth,
a leader appeared who called for Spacenoid independence
and the reformation of the human race.
His name was Zeon Zum Deikun.
U. C. 0068.
Just as Deikun began a speech, he collapsed.
His sudden death led to rampant speculation,
and factional infighting within the Deikun camp
suddenly erupted.
Degwin Zabi, a longtime supporter of Deikun, known as his right arm,
did not let this opportunity pass him by.
He and his faction toppled their rivals, the Ral family,
and seized power in Munzo.
Zabi!
Deikun's wife, Astraia, was placed in confinement.
And as for his children, Casval and Artesia...
My enemy, your enemy, Mother's enemy, everyone's!
I'll take them out!
They narrowly escaped to Earth
along with Jimba Ral, head of the Ral family.
Three years later...
The children changed their names,
Artesia to Sayla, and Casval to Édouard.
They had been adopted by the wealthy Teabolo Mass.
However, Jimba Ral lost his life at the hands of Zabi assassins.
Teabolo was also gravely injured.
Heeding the advice of Shu Yashima,
head of the Yashima Company, an industrial giant,
Teabolo decided to move to Texas Colony,
located in Side 5, also known as Loum.
However, a fateful encounter awaited them there.
Édouard Mass.
I'm Char Aznable!
But then sad tidings reached the ears of Sayla,
who had been eagerly awaiting their reunion with their mother.
It's mother, she...
It was news of Astraia's death.
No!
Édouard bade farewell to Sayla.
Artesia.
We won't see each other again for a while.
Goodbye, Artesia.
Wait! Don't go, Brother!
Casval!
There, he set out on a new path.
His first step towards his vengeance.
U.C. 0074.
Édouard, having secretly switched places with Char,
entered the Autonomous Republic of Zeon's military academy.
Also there was Garma Zabi, the Zabi heir.
I hereby pledge...
Garma Zabi, dorm 1!
Call it... your palace.
Char and Garma forged a fateful bond.
Meanwhile, with the assistance of scientific genius Dr. Minovsky,
Dozle Zabi managed to advance the development
of a new weapon called the "mobile suit".
But then a sudden accident changed everything.
The citizens rose up, demanding independence.
The Federation barracks? Attack them?!
They could no longer tolerate oppression by the Federation Forces.
Char provoked Garma,
who then incited the academy's cadets to take up arms.
It was to protect the lives, rights, and property of Spacenoids!
Right! Move out!
However, there was one cadet who had seen through Char's disguise.
His name was Lino Fernandez, a fellow Loum native.
Thank you very much, Lino.
During the battle,
Char disposed of Lino, who had pledged his loyalty to him earlier.
Casval, make them stop!
Fire!
Wh-Why?! Casval!
U. C. 0077.
Under the command of Garma Zabi, the uprising of some 200 academy cadets
forced the E.F.F. security forces to lay down their arms.
This incident, which would later be known as the Dawn Rebellion,
would become the starting point of the One Year War,
the greatest tragedy in human history.
Meanwhile, at Side 7, which housed a secret Federation factory...
Amuro Ray, age 13!
...Tem Ray was also conducting research into mobile suit development.
This is... Side 7.
MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM THE ORIGIN IV
It's a tickertape parade for the Guardian Banchi heroes!
It is to celebrate these mere 200 academy cadets
who foiled the Federation Forces' security operation scheme!
And the leader of this Dawn Rebellion was our very own Garma Zabi!
Garma!
Cadet leader Garma is waving to the crowd!
Following behind him are photos of those cadets who fell in the battle.
They are proud portraits of youths who gave their lives for their homeland!
I demand an explanation! What's the meaning of that nonsense?!
They're criminals! The Federation demands that they all be punished
and that the ringleader be handed over!
The "ringleader" is my younger brother.
You expect me to hand him over anyway?
I don't care who he is!
I've been briefed.
Vice Admiral Revil.
Allow me to express my condolences for the losses
suffered by your officers and men.
We will take appropriate measures without delay.
But perhaps there is someone in a more suitable position
to take the blame than young Garma.
The Republic of Zeon's sole concern is to avoid similar incidents in the future.
I would like to use this unfortunate incident
as an opportunity to build a new relationship with the Federation.
However,
it will be on the condition of the seizure of Federation assets here
and the complete withdrawal of Federation forces.
You halfwit!
Why do you think I assigned you as the academy's superintendent?!
Your job, above all else, is to protect Garma!
Listen closely, you useless oaf!
Excuse me...
I'm not interrupting anything important, am I?
No, we're done here.
Garma, come to my chambers.
Father seems to be in a bad mood...
I shouldn't have done what I did?
It's fine, Garma.
This has made you a true Zabi man.
You think so?
The important thing is that you weren't hurt.
Your body is important to the nation. You must treat it with respect.
Gihren, Dozle, and Kycilia are all bloodthirsty by nature.
Of all my children, only you have a gentle disposition.
I should have had you become a scholar
instead of enrolling you at the academy.
Come here Garma.
Come over and take my hand.
Well? Is my hand cold?
No. It's warm. Very warm.
Is it? Your cheek is also warm.
Stay like this a while, Garma.
I feel terrible for what I've done to you.
It's not right to have children when you've grown old.
Anyone can guess that you're the one who talked Garma into it.
So don't think that you're getting a raw deal as a scapegoat.
Do you have anything to say for yourself?
I do not, Colonel!
I like your resolve. All right, then...
What are your plans from here?
I thought I would take this opportunity to see Earth.
"Opportunity", huh?
If that is all, Cadet Char Aznable now mustering out as a private.
I am in your debt.
Sure. Take care.
Oh. Colonel, I do have one favor to ask.
If I should ever be called back into service,
please assign me to be a mobile suit pilot.
Mobile suit?
Garma blabbed about it, huh?
All right, I'll keep you in mind!
Thank you for your consideration, sir.
Cadet Zenna Mia reporting!
What are you two doing? Give us the room immediately!
- You're not packing heat today? - N-No, sir!
I'm being forced to resign my post here as a result of this incident.
I'm falling on my sword to take responsibility. Harakiri.
I-I see...
Even a man like me... can be hurt sometimes.
I-I see...
And there... are times when I want to be comforted.
I never considered taking a wife,
but I'm embarrassed to say that I am now.
Will you bear the children of Dozle Zabi?
- Move! Let us through! - As if, you Zeon bastard!
Why can we only take this much with us?!
Just you wait! I'll give you something to complain about!
- Announcing final boarding for Flight 702 to Earth.
- There are no more tickets! - No stopping!
Keep it moving! Keep it moving!
Eve of Destiny
MANAUS
Agha! Deal with them!
Okay, kid!
Break time! Take five!
Those bastards at Zeonic are unbelievable.
They say they're terminating the lease on that.
Do they really mean it?
Yeah, things are starting to look dicey out there.
They say if folks aren't careful, we could be looking at a war.
Hey, kid. Where'd you learn how to drive a mobile worker?
With those Zeonic bastards.
I worked in their development department. I got fired.
Those Zeons really are bastards.
This place sure is booming now.
Whoa, they even opened a casino?
I lost again!
Foreman, let's call it a night, okay?
No, just one more spin!
Please! You gotta spot me! I'll repay you next payday!
Hey! Help me!
My master wishes to play.
Stand aside, paupers.
He won!
- On a straight-up bet! - That's a 36X payout!
Next game!
Another straight-up bet!
No more bets!
Change dealers!
Hi!
Game... start!
He lost!
He lost again!
He lost big again!
What the hell?
His streak's over already?
Hey.
What're you doing?
Did you get an earful yesterday?
Who are you?
I was at the casino yesterday.
Why did you start losing all of a sudden?
Because that woman was so bad at her job.
Please stay away from me.
If you talk to me, bad things will happen to you.
Oh? Those old men sound like scary customers.
What's that?
Your family, huh? It's a big one.
- Where are they? - Mumbai.
India, huh? You're a long way from home.
You must want to go back.
I'm sending them money.
It's better for them to have money than to have me.
Still, this is in rough shape.
It got that way when it got wet. Do you think it can be fixed?
Sure it can.
Just scan it, correct the image data, and then reprint it.
Really?
Then please do! It's my only picture of them, so it means the world to me!
Lalah!
You're out here chatting up men again?!
That's a fine boat you have.
It must have cost you a pretty penny.
And where did that money come from, Mr. Genius Gambler?
I-It's those guys from Manaus!
Agha! Agha!
Foreman! Time to go!
Damn it all!
This isn't over!
Look kid, we don't need trouble like him on our doorstep.
- It wasn't by choice. He tagged along. - Who do you think I am?!
I won't let some hayseed Manaus mobsters
- get the better of me! - Excuse me.
Someone named "Agha" is here.
He says he's with you.
Oh, he's here?
Agha! It's good to see you safe and sound!
Master, I am going to join them.
What?!
They made me a more generous offer.
How dare you say that to me, you ingrate!
Who do you have to thank for the good life you've...
Don't! I'm sorry!
I'll pay you more!
No!
No! No!
Hold it.
Leave the girl and go.
Which would you prefer to lose? An arm? Or your head?
Neither one, thanks.
No, don't!
I can see you even in the shadows!
You got lucky.
No one can dodge this!
Men of the Jaburo Construction Office! Be good and do as I say!
An Indian girl is holed up in there!
- Send her out! - Foreman!
She's a little thing
with a dot an her forehead!
I know she's in there!
- I'll give you three minutes! - Stand up.
- Don't make trouble, just hand her over. - Run after me. Keep up.
Jaburo construction workers are my most valued customers!
I don't want to resort to violence, either.
Don't make this difficult! Just hand over the girl!
I'm not gonna eat her or anything!
I'm gonna treat her like royalty at my casino!
Time's up!
Get in there! If anybody tries to stop you, kill 'em!
Wh-What the hell is that?!
"Lalah", was it?
What do you suppose that was?
What?
I couldn't have seen that weapon coming from behind me,
but I sensed it and dodged at the last second.
Did you say something to warn me?
No.
I see. That's strange.
Foreman, sorry about the mess. I'll return it before the lease is up.
Lalah, if you really don't want to go home,
how about going someplace far away?
Where is this faraway place? America? Japan?
No. Someplace even farther.
The world of the stars.
Thanks to reckless acts by some irresponsible individuals,
our relations with Zeon have worsened markedly.
CHAIRMAN, E.F.F. JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF
ADMIRAL GOPP
Is the RX-78 Project proceeding smoothly?
Y-Yes, sir.
You were Dr. Minovsky's star pupil, I hear.
Yes, sir.
This footage was leaked to us through our back channel to Dr. Minovsky.
Give us your honest opinion.
MS-04?
They call them "mobile suits", apparently.
We will be docking at Side 7 momentarily.
Please remain in your seats.
Area A Baoa Qu...
We're unfamiliar with that zone.
Reminds me of those construction machines called "mobile workers".
Yes, we have them at our Jaburo base construction site, too.
No! This is something else entirely.
It's evolved into something utterly different.
This must be A Baoa Qu.
An asteroid they're using for mineral resources.
It's equipped with a shield and a heavy weapon.
I suppose this is its combat mode.
100mm projectile rounds!
That's on par with a tank cannon, right?
That's a freighter. Arcana-class, they're called.
That's just to show off.
It'll take more than 100mm rounds to take down one of our ships.
Our newly-developed MBT, the RCX-76 Guncannon, has bigger--
No!
Dr. Minovsky... has finally done it!
Admiral Gopp! Didn't you say that you got this footage
through your channels to Dr. Minovsky?
Let's continue this outside, Ray.
Defecting? Dr. Minovsky is defecting?
I suppose you could say that he's been poached.
By Anaheim Electronics from Zeonic.
Will you go to the Moon for me, Chief Ray?
T-To the Moon, sir?
The Doctor will be heading from Granada,
where the Zeonic factory is located, to Von Braun.
I'd like you to help with that.
I wasn't sure just how valuable Dr. Minovsky actually was,
but when I heard your appraisal of that footage, I knew for certain.
I hate to send you off again after you just arrived from that distant colony.
Don't you find it fascinating, Ray?
Jaburo can't be seen far up the Amazon from here in Brasilia,
but the Moon is plainly visible even though it's much farther away.
Space might prove to be a smaller place than we think it is.
If Dr. Minovsky takes a leadership position,
your project at Side 7 might make even greater strides.
Make sure you eat, you hear?
Bye, now! See you again tomorrow!
Make sure you get up early! Don't be late for school!
Bye-bye, Haro.
Bye-bye, Fraw.
Are you Amuro's father? It's nice to meet you.
And you are?
My name is Fraw Bow. We're classmates.
I live nearby.
Oh, I see.
He tells me that you're always busy with work.
But, well, about Amuro...
I feel bad about how he's always alone...
Please try to talk to him more.
I-I'm sorry. Goodbye!
Amuro! I'm home!
It's a pigsty again...
Welcome back.
At least try to clean up a little! It's filthy in here!
I have another business trip. I have to go to the Moon this time.
It's very important work.
Haro hurts. Ouch.
- Make some coffee. - Yes, Dad.
I'm going to be even busier now. So you need to...
Amuro!
Put some pants on! Don't be a slob!
Y-Yes, Dad!
You had a girl over dressed like that?!
Of all the... When is that boy going to grow up?
LUNAR CITY GRANADA
We have arrived at Granada.
- We're finally here, Doctor.
- Please remain patient until we have berthed.
It won't be much longer now.
We've arrived, Excellency.
Let's debark, Catherine.
Yes, let's, Major Bergmann.
I'm told that Dr. Minovsky
is heading straight to Zeonic from the spaceport.
Are we to proceed as planned?
"Catherine, shall we stick to our plans?"
Sh-Shall we stick to our plans, Catherine?
I suppose.
It sure is dark.
The far side of the Moon is pitch black. At night, anyway.
This is taking forever!
No jumping. You'll kick up dust.
Just walk slowly. There's no rush.
We just need to reach the edge of Mare Smythii within 12 hours.
I assume we'll get a break between then and now, Captain, sir?
It's no five-star hotel,
but our red friend will be waiting for us up ahead with coffee.
That guy!
I can't stand that red jerk!
They say he was made an MS pilot with hardly any training!
I hear he's a military academy washout with a criminal record!
He must've really sucked up to Col. Dozle!
Must be a smooth talker.
I wouldn't know about that, but he's definitely got talent.
Heavens!
Our good Capt. Ral's turning into a big softie, too!
Gaia, make those two shut up!
You'll just have to grin and bear it.
Those two are worked up, is all.
Since this is supposed to turn into the first mobile suit battle ever.
Dr. Minovsky has left for the industrial zone.
He is moving ahead of schedule.
It looks like our leak worked perfectly.
Excellency!
The Doctor has already...
B-Begging your pardon, ma'am!
Or Catherine, I should sa...
Now, if you'd be so kind as to escort me, Major?
I'd be honored to, Missus Catherine.
Er... Would you mind if I asked a question?
What is it?
Um, would it be all right if I wiped this off?
Do whatever you like, Mr. Bergmann.
Have a pleasant evening, Madam.
Are you two going out for a night on the town in Granada?
That's right. I suppose we were curious.
Take us someplace with a good club atmosphere.
LUNAR CITY VON BRAUN
You can't do that! It would make trouble for us!
I hate to break it to you after coming all the way from Side 7, but still!
L-Look, I've heard all about it.
About Dr. Minovsky defeating...
I know he's coming here, too!
But what did you hope to accomplish by coming here at the 11th hour?!
But Admiral Gopp told me personally that Anaheim had poached him!
The head office did all that! They don't have a clue!
Listen, our RCX-76 Project is coming along just fine, thank you very much!
Fine! See for yourself!
Take a look at our latest production line.
Look at that! Completed units are already rolling off the line!
We've already started making deliveries to the military.
Their test results are excellent, too!
I hear that over at Zeonic, their MS-04 is over budget,
so they're developing the MS-05, which is lower-spec.
Anything that happens out there, I hear about it!
Just like I know that your RX-78 is starting to fall behind schedule.
I don't think there will be any need for the RX-78 anytime soon.
Oh, I know! Why don't you ask him to tell you all about it?
He's your honored mentor, isn't he?
So you make sure that Dr. Minovsky is given a warm welcome!
This isn't it.
This isn't what Dr. Minovsky
called a "mobile suit"!?
This isn't it!
Von Braun! Von Braun, come in!
This is TYM!
The plan is in motion. Be prepared to receive.
Have left Granada city limits. Proceeding westwards on Route 1!
ETA to Abul Wafa, 10 hours.
Everything is going according to plan. The Doctor is currently at this point.
He has a long way to go. We have a welcoming party for him, right?
Moving heat sources detected in Mare Smythii!
Likely to be the new Zeon humanoid weapons!
They have those on the Moon? How many?
Four, sir! Confirmed!
Just four, huh?
Dispatch the Iron Cavalry Squadron!
The squadron? All of them, sir?
That's right.
I wouldn't normally use a sledgehammer to swat a fly,
but opening engagements are critical.
Commander!
Please let me go to the battle site, too.
I want to see Guncannons in action with my own two eyes.
So, they're sending mobile suits...
To prevent the defection of Dr. Minovsky,
the man who created them...
Emergency mobilization alert. Emergency mobilization alert.
Iron Cavalry Squadron, prepare to mobilize.
Emergency mobilization alert. Emergency mobilization alert.
Iron Cavalry Squadron, prepare to mobilize.
Erdush squadron, launch preparations complete!
The Federation forces at Von Braun have mobilized.
They've apparently sent out their prized Iron Cavalry Squadron.
Have they now?
This is shaping up to be a night to remember!
Twilight on the Moon, huh?
You! Red!
You're not where you're supposed to be! Why aren't you sending out a beacon?
Must I answer the question?
Damn right you do!
Where does a private get off talking to me like that?!
I'll answer it, then. Because a beacon would be detected by the enemy.
Didn't you manage to find me without one, Warrant Officer?
Quiet down.
The rabbit's getting close.
It's about damn time!
Rabbit-hunting, huh?
Don't shoot yet! We stop it first!
This is TYM! Mobile suits were waiting for us!
Help us!
Understood! Moving to assist at once!
Flee to outside of Granada-controlled sector!
Why?
Why would you do this, Doctor?!
We developed these mobile suits together!
Doctor! This is Capt. Hal!
I guarantee your safety! I want you to come back!
We're done for!
We'll be fine! Federation help is on the way!
There's no escaping them!
Don't shoot yet, Gaia!
You're wasting your breath, Captain!
We have to finish him off right now!
Single red mobile suit spotted. Four more up ahead.
The Doctor's vehicle also spotted.
Five? Weren't there four?
Well, no matter!
That son of a...
He started without us!
These are fair game, right?!
Forces have engaged!
Right, then. Squadron! All units, drop!
Protect the Doctor's car!
We'll surround the enemy and wipe them out!
- They're here! - They're here!
It's a Federation mobile suit force! Doctor, we're safe now!
Targets 01 through 04! Range, 400!
Fire!
Your ass is mine!
Keep it up!
We'll show them what real mobile suits can do!
No you don't! I won't let you go, Doctor!
We can't, sir!
They're fighting! I won't take us any closer!
You fool! What do you think we came here for?!
Don't take your eyes off those sensors!
I can't believe they've advanced this far...
Oh, no! They'll be wiped out!
Retreat! Recover them and retreat!
You call those toys mobile suits?!
What's that? The red punk did that?
Way to hog the fun stuff, you bastard!
Another one down!
I-It can't be...
There are heat sources everywhere!
Infrared sensors not functioning!
Dr. Minovsky!
Gaia? Let that one go!
Don't do it!
I'm afraid I must refuse.
Granada is neutral territory. We cannot side with Zeon
and take part in a war.
As fellow lunar cities, we and Von Braun
have maintained cordial relations for years.
I cannot take part in something that is predicated
on betraying that relationship.
Just a moment.
I see. Well done.
Give Capt. Ral my regards.
Mr. Mayor, I've been informed that my men have wiped out
a squadron-sized Federation mechanized force at Mare Smythii.
You should take this to heart. Zeon already possesses such power.
That's impossible! I must confirm this with Prime Minister Gihren at once!
Refer to him as Supreme Commander Gihren!
Zeon is no longer a republic, but rather a principality.
My father, Degwin, will name himself its sovereign
and declare our independence any time now!
B-Be that as it may, I must... I must confirm this...
Be careful on your way home. Granada is dangerous at night.
Major Bergmann.
How does he know about the war?
I merely requested that we be allowed to garrison a force
here at Granada equal to that of the Federation.
I didn't say a word about using it as a launching point to attack Von Braun!
I, uh... That is--
The Kycilia Secret Agency has no need for blabbermouths.
F-Forgive me, Missus Catherine...
Imbecile.
We can drop the charade now.
Our company must adopt a new policy without delay!
The RCX-76 force we delivered
was wiped out by a mere five mobile suits!
The score is 12 to 0! A shutout!
You talk like this doesn't involve you, Mr. Ray.
You're a part of this, too!
- He's right! - You're partly to blame!
Yes. The blame certainly does lie partly with me.
So please, let me take full responsibility.
Help me advance the next phase of the RX Project!
You're trying to turn this to your advantage, is that it?!
Butt out!
I will leave. Gladly.
What will become of mobile suit development after this?
You'll halt it, won't you?
And simply throw in the towel to Zeonic!
Dr. Minovsky tried to defect with the intention of working with us,
but he died before he could do so!
I saw it happen, but couldn't do anything to save him!
We should carry on his work!
Easier said than done...
I can certainly sympathize, but, well...
You needn't worry. The project is coming along.
It's almost done.
Allow me to show it to you! Our definitive plan!
Behold! I give you the RX-78!
Codename, "Gundam"!
Dad?
Is he back?
Sorry!
Ouch. Ouch.
He didn't lock it when he left...
Don't go in, Amuro.
He'll get mad. He'll get mad. Hey!
Don't go in!
U.C. 0078, October 24th.
REPUBLIC OF ZEON RATIFIES CHANGE TO PRINCIPALITY The Republic of Zeon ratifies its change into a principality.
DECLARES INDEPENDENCE FROM FEDERATION AT SAME TIME
Sieg Zeon!
Sieg Zeon! Sieg Zeon!
EARTH FEDERATION FORCES GENERAL HQ
Revil. Do you think it's finally time to carry out the relocation to Jaburo?
I suppose it is.
Gihren Zabi is a man who will stop at nothing.
Who could have predicted it?
To think that war has come upon us once again in this new era.
Today is the first day after the historic declaration of independence.
We're coming to you from in front of the Zeon Diet building.
- This feels like the veritable calm before the storm.
- Be careful.
Don't cut through any construction sites!
I won't!
And for that reason,
the end of the old A.D. era became a period of fresh conflict and poverty...
Amuro!
AMURO!
Welcome home!
Amuro!
Want to head home together?
Look, um... You seem kinda exhausted.
You're up late every night, right?
Did you eat dinner last night?
I ate it!
Oh? Well, if you say so.
Hey, Little Miss Conduct Monitor!
Are you giving Amuro a yellow card, too?
Keeping late hours is a no-no!
No falling asleep in class!
Illicit sexual relations will not be tolerated!
Shut up!
Oo, scary!
Let her give your conduct a good monitoring, Amuro!
Jerks! You shouldn't associate with the likes of those boys!
That Kai in particular is a delinquent! He's even been held back a year!
What's the matter?
I remembered something that I have to do.
I need to make a stop.
Amuro!
Hey! Do you have plans for Christmas?
You'll be home alone, right? I'll make a cake for you!
It'll be delicious!
Talks have broken down
over the Zeon government's refusal to apologize for
the recent battle on the lunar surface.
As a result, all Sides are being forced to take measures.
Is it good, Amuro?
It is expected that as soon as a defensive mobilization
Fraw is nice, isn't she? Haro likes Fraw. Likes, likes!
is approved by the Federation assembly,
I love Fraw!
E.F.F. headquarters at Jaburo will call up
Shut up! If you keep bugging me, I'll yank out your battery!
Furthermore, the Federation government
is calling on citizens of all Sides
to remain calm and behave responsibly.
How is any of this colony construction documents?
Riah, Side 6, has already declared neutrality.
Side 2, Hatte, has sided with the Federation, Dad...
Side 2, Hatte, has sided with the Federation,
taking an openly antagonistic stance against Zeon. I wonder what he's doing right now?
taking an openly antagonistic stance against Zeon.
Vice Admiral Revil, E.F.S.F. Supreme Commander,
made the following statement in an interview:
"I won't abandon hope of averting war.
1 say this because this war
will almost certainly be a disaster worse than any war
ever experienced by mankind."
U.C. 0079 JANUARY 3RD PRINCIPALITY OF ZEON DECLARES WAR AGAINST EARTH FEDERATION

The Principality of Zeon and the Federation are now at war!
From what we've confirmed, the lunar city of Granada
