I've been talking with the UK CP Aaron Mark Daniels and other cabinet members. Here is some information behind why the UK is fighting all out in London today (Day 2,821).
Argentina occupies UK regions
Argentina has been occupying UK regions since Argentina attacked the UK during the anniversary of the Falkands war. (The Falkands War being the real life war where Argentina attacked the Falkland Islands; which are a British Overseas Territory, because 'Argentina wants them' and they are 'near Argentina' - this does not make something yours.) In-game Argentina has all UK regions except the 'East Midlands' and the 'North West of England' which the UK has gained back.
Why has the UK launched a RW in London?
A deal the previous CP made with the Argentinians to; 'not officially start RW's' ended on the 5th of August. No new deal has been made and the UK population are becoming more keen to remove Argentina.
Argentina is divided by wars in other countries they occupy. This makes it hard to focus damage on specific battles, and generally: vastly increases the chances all the occupied nations have - to gain regions back.
Negotiations with Argentina
The UK has had issues talking to Argentina. A big problem: The Argentinians have not been keen to talk. Furthermore, the UK is not keen to sign a deal with Argentina that doesn't benefit the UK and allies such as Ireland (who are also occupied by Argentina).
Overall
As I write this article the battle is only just beginning, but the rounds (mini-battles) are close. Here is the battle. CO has been used on both sides and battles have already gone 'epic'. It is likely UK and Argentinian fighters will fight for a long time, possibly until the end of the battle.

¨...The Falkands War being the real life war where Argentina attacked the Falklands which are a British Overseas Territory because 'Argentina wants them' and they are 'near Argentina' - this does not make something yours..¨
Learn the TRUE history, british donkey. Piracy fits you well, robber.
The British claim to sovereignty dates from 1690, and the United Kingdom has exercised de facto sovereignty over the archipelago almost continuously since 1833. Argentina has long disputed this claim, having been in control of the islands for a period prior to 1833.
Contemporary Falkland Islanders overwhelmingly prefer to remain British. They gained full British citizenship with the British Nationality (Falkland Islands) Act 1983, after British victory in the Falklands War.
I know history, not sure what you are on about mate.
“There is nothing so bad or so good that you will not find an Englishman doing it; but you will never find an Englishman in the wrong. He does everything on principle. He fights you on patriotic principles; he robs you on business principles; he enslaves you on imperial principles.”
George Bernard Shaw, The Man of Destiny
Hahaha, it's a well known fact that Brits were there before Argentina gained independence from Spain. Brits were even there before Spain!
Maybe you should learn some true history, or can't you afford books?
The only things you afford are lies, Tordesillas Treaty says nothing to usurpers.
Damn, great argument about the Falklands! I can tell you won debater of the year at school.
The 1494 treat of tordesillas? really? xD
I am aware of the history before the Falklands were part of Britain, and they were not part of Argentina. 'The islands were uninhabited at the time of their discovery by Europeans. The islands then changed hands many times in the 1700's and 1800's.' To then start killing people (in 1982) is no way to go about disputing anything, ever. To then declare war on a virtual game on the anniversary shows that citizens of Argentina have no remorse for the war warmongering actions of the real life Argentinian government of 1982. Either that or you just want to wipe up some cheap nationalism.
No need to quote George Bernard Shaw and turn it into an ad hominem attack, oh wait I forgot that when you are losing that argument that is all you can resort to. 😉
So you are the prime minister, or I must say the Imperial Clown, What are you doing in Mesopotamia? Robbering water surely.
I am in Mesopetamia for the same reason you are currently in London.
You´re in my country to obtain resources. I´m in yours to kill thieves. That´s the difference 😉
Why do you want to murder Brits? Are you a racist?
#RaceCardPlayed
I am in your country to fight the oppressors of British sovereign land. Much like 1982
Much like 1806, much like 1807, much like 1845, and we can continue quotating all the english attempts of invasion. Talk of sovereignty with a crow, prime minister of robbers.
This is truly hillarious. Your impetuous claims, this is only proving Max correct. In game aggression over RL events. I truly hope you never represent Argentina in any political sense.
You represent the white glove delinquency. After all, an english is a kind of thief with smoking.
Can you please stop being racist towards Brits? Your deluded anger represents something of a caveman.
For a 'new world' eRepublik has a far bit of RL nationalism. Now stop embarrassing yourself kid and concentrate in your next history class
*fair
Actually I am radically anti smoking. I don't know where you get your intel from but consider sacking them
Really? But you stink mate
also does 'radically' anti-smoking mean you walk up and punch anyone with a cig?
Go bite someone else's shoulder suarez!
If I were you I'd stick to football - you're good at that.
Leave the debating, history and not-being-a-racist-scumbag to the bigger kids.
You know who the real losers are in the game? Its probably you Argies. You attacked us in a game, over a war in the Falklands in real life that you lost so you wouldn't be so butthurt anymore.
YUP, TOTALLY ACCEPTABLE...
You shouldn't blame us for the actions (or in my opinion mistakes) of the past.
“There is nothing so bad or so good that you will not find an Englishman doing it; but you will never find an Englishman in the wrong. He does everything on principle. He fights you on patriotic principles; he robs you on business principles; he enslaves you on imperial principles.”

You´re just usurpers, miserable islanders. That explains your need of land.
Hahaha.
"You're just usurpers miserable islanders. That explains your need of lands"
Ironic when you are claiming sovereignty over an ISLAND. xD Also nice ad hominem George Bernard Shaw Quote. So, what explains your need for land? ;P Because if this discussion is anything to go by its by pure malicious intent and intended aggravation.
Your own existence is malicious
And if you are talking in game, you have an intense need of land with the current occupation by many nations. So hypocritical.
At least we have principles 😉
At last, not at least, and that if you can reach them. Dubious.
We can reach at least 8,064 miles. More than could be said for a certain nation.
this is great banter, it really is
Some bizarre comments from our Argentinian friends here.
If the Americas were only discovered by Europeans in 1492 then logic dictates that anyone who lives in South America who is not a descendent of the original inhabitants prior to the arrival of Spanish and Portuguese is a colonist and supports Imperialist aggression.
So on that basis Imperialist aggression is ok for Spanish imperialists who conquered what is now Argentina, but is to be condemned if it's perceived as coming from UK or USA?
Don't expect that guy to understand logic.
" Do not let the Argentina be a power , it will drag behind all Latin America . The strategy is to weaken and corrupt inside the Argentina . Destroy their industries , their armed forces , promote internal divisions supporting the right and left sides , attacking their culture in all media impose political leaders to respond to our Empire . This will be achieved thanks to the apathy of the people and a controllable democracy where their representatives will raise their hands in dough to serve his mission. We must humiliate Argentina " . ( Winston Churchill 1945 Yalta )
That´s happening, and it has been a british ¨ant´s work¨ since the ¨Independence¨ Wars. And as I´m very conscious of the british politics towards South America, and specially Argentina I have the duty to denunciate it as well as all the corrupt Argentine politicians and to inform the people about our internal enemies and the brits of course.
"We must humiliate Argentina"
You seem to be doing that pretty well on your own.
You can't look after the people in the land you currently own so what makes you think you could look after more?
What? Its because rl ?
So indonesia must attack netherland for making indo their colonie for 320 years
Correction 350 years
The game reflects reality. It´s not casual the brits and chileans are our enemies in the game.
Game reflects reality? Mhm Serbia are a great superpower irl...
What, it isn't?
And japan for 3.5 years
And english for 5 years 😛
Yes it is because of the real life. However I do not think Indonesia should attack the Netherlands or anyone else due to what has happened in real life, many many years ago. 🙂
Yep, its a game , you should not bring your real life problem into your game life
Calm down dears it's just a game. If it were RL we'd have kicked the Argie buggers arses like we did in 82,
