Background
The Germans and Ottomans along with their allies had been involved in a "Cold War" (series of proxy wars or small fights) since late November 2021, which seemed to have calmed by the Okinawa Pact signed after the bloody Battle of Budapest on 5 December. On 11 December they also fought indirectly against each other's allies in the Battle of Myrmidons.
The German side claimed the reasons for SPQR to invade were none, while the Ottomans stated that Deutschland broke the Okinawa Pact established two weeks prior, though not clarifying how or when.
German expansion and preparation
During late November and early December, the prosperous Deutschland sought to expand into western Germany, as well as Prussia, northern Switzerland and western Hungary. The arrival of Nikocholas (nickykied) into the government made it feasible to establish a new colony somewhere in the world in order to gain influence and control near potential enemies. The place chosen was in the Americas, more exactly in Venezuela, based in an actual German colony (Klein Venedig, which means Little Venice in German) from the Early Modern Era. A little town was also to be established in the nearby Guyanas.
The order to establish Klein-Venedig was announced to the citizenship on 12 December 2021, after which three people offered their services. On the following days, _ItzChris_ and his brother were appointed Kolonialgouverneurs (governors) of New Augsburg, the colony's capital, while the governor of the now abandoned German Hungary moved to form the town of Gloria east of New Augsburg. Finally, it was Fornacis who was appointed mayor of the settlement in the Guyanas. All three towns were established and united by 17 December, although they were legally part of a "sovereign state" called Venezuela, which simply worked as a German puppet state in order to avoid attracting the attention of any enemies.
At this point, Erzherzog nickykied (mayor of Salzburg) foresaw the onset of a conflict between SPQR and Deutschland, so he and some other military officers, mayors and citizens began building the "Maginot Wall" (more than ten blocks tall9 along the French-German border on December 2nd, 2022 (three days before Budapest and two weeks before the war actually started).

European Theater
Invasion begins (17 December)
German reinforcements depart from Salzburg to recapture nearby Munich (17 December)
With help of KawadaJP, the Ottomans striked two sieges at Feldkirch and Munich on the afternoon of 17 December. There was no response from the German Army, as the attack was done at a time when most of the soldiers were offline (probably on purpose). These double-siege offensive was also unexpected by the German commanders, though the Erzherzog nickykied had predicted one two weeks earlier.
Despite the lack of defenders, German allies from Qin, Earth, Hawaii and Mexico went first to Feldkirch, then to Munich to help. They quickly found out the attackers in Feldkirch were too many to be able to make progress, so they gave up that town (being the second biggest in Deutschland) and went to Munich instead, which had way less attackers.

While fighting was happening, Berlin (led by GeneralT_123) decided to leave Deutschland as they did not want to fight SPQR directly (they had friends there) and made a nation called 'Germany' to be a subject of SPQR. New Wolfsburg and Hamburg followed him stating the same reasons. Salzburg and Düsseldorf declared they would stay on Deutschland to death. After all this, Great Britain, aware of Deutschland's inability to defend three towns at once, decided to finally siege Truro (the disputed town on the south-west of Great Britain owned by the Germans), with this town joining Earth later.
On 18 December at 1 AM UTC, the government of Munich decided to surrender their siege and leave Deutschland, Berbery left too.

Doing this, they couldn't make much damage more than trapping although they made SPQR lose +70k points out of the 320k they had.
Ottomans advance (18 December)
With little German resistance, SPQR and Hokkaido continued advancing substantially on the siege of Feldkirch and slightly on Lugano.
