War in Donbass is a conflict between Ukraineball and Russiaball (according to Ukraineball) Novorossiaball (according to Russiaball). It started when Ukraineball started the Maidan to join EUball. At the same time, Donetskball and Luhanskball started Anti-Maidan to be friends with Russiaball. After Russiaball took  Crimeaball in 2014, Donetskball and Luhanskball got jealous and started protesting to Ukraineball to give them to Russiaball. Russiaball, that wanted them too, send his troops to Donetskball and Luhanskball and created Novorossiaball. Ukraineball, angry at Crimeaball, was enraged and went to attacking Novorossiaball. But Russiaball continued to support separatists, and war became very harsh. Then, Russiaball, Germanyball, Franceball and Ukraineball met in Minskball and freezed the conflict. Now most countryballs recognize the War in Donbass as a Russiaball's military intervention in Ukraineball.
