Hey, why all the pages on Psychonauts 2 keep referring to war in Grulovia as Grulovian Civil War? It wasn't a civil war, newspapers in Ford's mail level mention Grulovia being invaded, and Gristol's level talks about invasion too

There's a reason for the confusion, I think. It's a little confused in-universe.

So there was an invasion by an unnamed country first, which was what Lucy initially returned to fight against.

But then there was the Gzar's suppression of the protestors afterwards, and eventually the massive storms and resulting floods summoned by Lucy/Maligula — which, it turns out, were not necessarily an attack at first so much as an attempt to force the people off the streets that turned deadly when the dam burst. Not sure how violent the suppression or protests were before the actual Deluge? I'd have to check the memory reels. The latter might be what people are thinking of as the civil war? As well as the reign of terror after the Deluge, when Lucy's Maligula persona had fully taken over. Not quite sure how long that lasted or how many people died. It sounded like a lot, but I'm not sure about the timing.

Eventually the Psychic Six were called in to fight Maligula, and that was the Battle of Grulovia.

So yeah, three events — the war/invasion (Grulovian War? that's what the wiki calls it), the Deluge of Grulovia, and the Battle of Grulovia. I can see how people might be confused. Anyone else able to help clear this up?

Bizarrchitecture isn't linking correctly. Checked the spelling and that doesn't seem to be the issue. Someone with my savvy for this site should fix this if possible.

Done. You use curly braces, two on each side. { }
