->''Strangereal, 1995. The longstanding rivalry between Belka and its neighbor in the Osean Federation saw an arms race for a massive increase in military capacity and a substantial expansion of territory for the two nations during the 20th century -- creating two superpowers on the same continent. However, maintaining an armed force, especially one as technologically advanced as the Belkan proved costly and as voices for independence rose in the regions Belka had captured during the arms race -- Gebet, Recta and Ustio -- the Belkan Federation started to fall apart. Extremist groups took advantage of the power vacuum left by the chaos and as dissatisfaction and propaganda, partly spread by neighboring forces, took like wildfire among the general populace, the increasingly authoritarian government, in a bid to save the country from economic collapse, declared war on the surrounding nations.\\

->''The writing in ''Ace Combat'', through its entire run, has always been theatrical, dramatic and over the top, with characters often regarding actual substance as secondary, instead just opting to sound as cool as possible -- an aspect that might come across as a negative. If you value presentation over telling an actual story, surely, you must have a tonal problem? But Ace Combat doesn't have a tonal problem. Much like the dialogue sacrificing anything and everything to convey the feeling of a theatrical childhood dogfight, even to the extent of shrouding any information behind layers and layers of creative writing, so do the games as a whole. It doesn't care that you should know this, do this or understand that -- it cares only for one thing. It cares that you should '''feel'''.''
