Basically Aztechnology...oops, I mean Aztlan...haha, decided that they
would nationalize all businesses in Aztlan. That meant that ANYTHING on
Aztlan soil now belonged to the Aztlan government. Since this included
resources of all the major megacorps the corporate court stepped in and
said "nope, don't think so". I'm pretty sure Atzlan got a warning which
they ignored. So, as punishment (and more for deterring other corps from
taking similar actions) the corporate court said "ok, Aztechnology is now
open sesson".
When the megacorps pulled things on each other there are still rules...and
you can't just pull out all of the guns and go to town on each other...but
the ruling now said that yeah sure go ahead and womp on Aztechnology all
you want. So the corps got together, made a big show of force in one
location and then attacked from another. They hit some town...can't
remember which but it wasn't the capital. Wiping out all of the facilities
there. Aztechnology quickly learned its lesson and they compremised on the
nationalization thing.

That's a brief how I remember it thing. I'm sure there are things I've
left out but I don't think I got too much wrong...
