For the people of Gran Colombia, there was no reprieve. Each dawn brought the same horror—the low hum of Amerathian bombers piercing the morning sky, a sound that now heralded nothing but death and destruction.
The bombing campaign had escalated beyond strategic targets. What had started as air raids against factories, railways, and military depots had turned into an unrelenting assault on the nation itself. Amerathia's goal was clear: to break Gran Colombia's will to resist.
Bogotá, Medellín, Cali—none had been spared. Each day, new cities and towns were set ablaze. Hospitals, government offices, even marketplaces—all crumbled under the relentless barrage. The roads were clogged with refugees, families abandoning their homes in search of safety that no longer existed.
