Conq-Quartzes rivalry

The Conq-Quartz rivalry refers to an old rivalry between Quartz and Conq. Similarly to the rivalry between Quartz and Cactus, there were two main causes of the rivalry - in game events, and ooc interactions.

Gameplay
The rivalry largely emerged during GS3, where Conq played Germany and Quartz played France. The two were not only playing rival nations but were also highly active, making a rivalry inevitable.

In GS4, this rivalry was exarcebated as Quartz and Conq reprised their roles as France and Germany respectively.

OOC
Gameplay circumstances laid the path for their rivalry, but OOC events turned this from a competitive rivalry to one that became more personal. Quartz opposed Conq during the end stages of the Yaoi Wars and generally opposed him during his tensions with Pat, Arion and Psi.

Current status
The Conq-Quartz rivalry has largely passed, as the two began converging in opinions and demands from the server. The two played mutually friendly nations during GS8, and Quartz was largely supportive of Conq's position during the Trench War.
