The Guinean Earth Front was the first African ecocentrist radical group, founded by Lansana Toure in the 2030s. The Army of Terra was an offshoot of the GEF, splitting off from the front in 2042 to expand into other West African nations. After the Guinean Earth Party established victory in 2055, the Army continued to push for uprising in other nations, much to the discomfort of Bruce Industries, which would continue to lose revenue given an additional ecocentrist revolution. In 2061, the Army of Terra allegedly caused the November Horror attacks, leading Donald King to declare the War on Ecocentrism.
