The 2008 Dolphin uprising was a deadly war between the Dolphins and the Humans lasting from 2008 to 2009 and ending in a Human victory. While the Humans won the war, it was not a total victory as Dolphin King Exxon slipped away to his covert ocean hideout, hidden beneath an oil spill. The war was deadly, as a total of 4,317,587 beings died as a result of the two year war. They were all Canadian.
