America did.

I like how northern Africa and the Middle east are smoking dead zones

The Moon Bunnies did. Everyone else just watched.

Eirin did. For now.

Mexico did. Nobody's really sure how that happened.

The only difference from now is that they're smoking dead zones with people dumb enough to live there.

If it were an outside, human influence, like in the last Lunar War, it wouldn't be a problem. Long ago, the humans had made it to the moon's surface and claimed it as their own by planting a flag. They were probably impressed by their own science and thought the moon really was theirs.

But, if you know where to look, the moon's technological prowess was far beyond that of the Earth's. The humans had spoken of building a base on the moon, but in the end they ran back home before ever deciding on a place or even acquiring the means to do such a thing. It was a terrible defeat for the humans.

The humans' lunar landings were reported as a great success in the outside world, but their failures were not. The humans kept losing after their first landing, so eventually they stopped returning to the moon. And we, who'd remained in contact with the moon, knew how every time they tried to establish a base, they'd failed.

Humans don't really advance that much over time - it's almost at their limit to keep from sliding backwards. Even if the humans decided to launch another expedition, it wouldn't create much of a stir in the lunar capital.

Wait, is this "tl ; dr ZUN drunkenly rambles that the Lunarians claim victory for a completely non-existent conflict?" If so, why did Udonge desert? There wasn't any fighting going on!

Pretty sure the moon did.

Even assuming America had the technology and shit to match up, it's simply way too fucking expensive to actually invade the moon. As long as they don't start advertising moon oil and moon terrorism I'd say they only have to worry about the Gensokyo idiot squad.

The US needs to build a Giant mirror array on the moon...
Burn anyone who opposes us to a crisp.

Were they beaten by the insurgents?

Basically, the Lunarians had a bunch of political fearmongering. The Lunar War is kind of like the War on Drugs, bird flu, terrorists, and whatever else we're supposed to be scared of right now.

>>1005701
But they DID launch another expedition, long before the "first" one

>>1005723
Once again, why did Udonge desert if there wasn't any fighting going on? She's either very cowardly, very stupid, or both.

Ever since Bush started the "Lunar war on Terrorism" space travel prices have been skyrocketing.

Perhaps America tried to invade the moon and after being defeated the US government decided to cover it up so as not to lose face to the rest of the world over being defeated by a bunch of rabbits.

>>1005736
Because the Lunarian government was acting like the humans were coming to invade. She thought there was going to be fighting, and decided to get out while she still could. She probably is sort of a coward.

>>1005710moon oil and moon terrorism

>>1005719
>>1005720
awesome

>>1005736
Because the Lunarians were preparing to repel an "invasion". Reisen said "fuck this" and went to earth.

>>1005756
Don't you mean Moon minerals/metals, there is no oil there. It is possible that beneath the Lunar surface there exists some type of mineral/metal that can be useful and mined.

>>1005772
Helium-3

>>1005772
There's scientific proof that dinosaurs lived on the moon. It wouldn't make any sense if oil wasn't there.

The lunar war happened in 1970 right?
Didn't Eirin and Kaguya flee to earth like 1000 years ago?
How the fuck did Eirin destroy the apolo 13?

>>1005783
>How the fuck did Eirin destroy the apolo 13?
She didn't. She just knows the truth behind it.

>>1005772
Helium3 = moon oil

>>1005783
Really good aim.

>>1005783
One of the rabbits shouted "Help me Eirin!", so she went up and challenged Apollo 13 to a danmaku duel. The spaceship lost.
