Multiversal Victory Day Parade

"When me, my family and my village folk were watching this victory parade, despite all the horrible devastation done by superweapons in the Last Day, we were excited to see all the action happening there in the Red Square in Moscow, Russia since Alexander Pepper just put an end of Victor Nevarez's existence five years ago. I was in Gyeongyeong when this event happened."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Half A Decade Later...

The Multiversal Victory Day Parade is an upcoming military parade that will take place in Moscow's Red Square on 9 May 2050 to commemorate the ultimate defeats of both the Coalition of the Red Star and the Global Liberation Union in the Third World War in 2045. The parade will mark the Grand Alliance's victory in the Great Interdimensional War on the day of Supreme Leader Victor Nevarez's death at the hands of Alexander Pepper, on the very afternoon of September 2, 2045 (the date which the Battle for the Multiverse took place).

Tsarina Catherine III of the newly-restored Russian Empire (after 5 years of Grand Alliance occupation), the final leader of the Russian Opposition, will be its master of ceremonies.

Events
After Tsarina Catherine III of the newly-restored Russian Empire declares the opening of the Multiversal Victory Day Parade, General Nathan Bradford; the Commander-in-Chief of the Grand Alliance Joint Military, will deliver his first holiday address to the world after the parade inspection presided over by Marshal of the USRAC Nikolay Zubarev; Minister of Defence of the Unified Soviet Red Assault Command, accompanied by the parade commander General Armando Hendrix; Supreme Commander of the Sugarlandic Royal Army, who will be in the parade for the first time. Every year, for several days of Victory Day celebrations, a dress rehearsal of the Parade is held in the Russian Armed Forces' Alabino Training Range in Moscow Oblast, which exactly repeats the holiday program itself. On this day, huge columns of military personnel, cadets and representatives of law enforcement agencies, legendary and modern military equipment take to the streets, and dozens of modern planes and helicopters appear in the skies above the Russian capital.

Invited attendees
The first official invitations came during the 2049 G20 Manila summit, with invitations going to US president Michael Dugan, British prime minister Vivienne Rook, French president Emmanuel Macron, Australian prime minister Scott Morrison, German chancellor Angela Merkel, Russian president Boris Vorshevsky and Avalonian High Captain Edward John Smith. The invitation to former US president Donald Trump was reiterated in a meeting with Vorshevsky later that year. However, Trump would later decline the invitation in a diplomatic cable to Moscow (Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are expected to attend on his behalf). In December 2049, an official invitation was sent to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey by the Russian Embassy in Ankara. On January 2050, the High Captain himself, having recovered from spinal shock due to the Battle for the Multiverse, holds a meeting for the Congress of the Republic of Avalon that all of the congressmen and congresswomen of that same cabinet (with attendance of some delegates from the Coalition of the Red Phoenix) will officially be invited to the parade on behalf of Preston Garvey of the Commonwealth with Colonel Miller of the Spartan Rangers (who will also be invited) on his side. Soon, it was confirmed with an unanimous vote.

Preparatory activities
Beginning in January 2050, preparations for the parade were well attended at the unit level. Individual unit practices were held in the various military installations for all the participating units in the national and local parades. Unit practices within Moscow Oblast itself started in early March in the Alabino field and other locations before the full-blown parade practice run-throughs for all the participating units will commence later in the month.

Officially the preparatory period for the parade kicked off on 26-27 March 2050 in the Alabino Training Range in Moscow Oblast, wherein the parade's more than 40,000 servicemen and women have been assembled to begin more than a month of practice rehearsal runs together with more than 1,000 vehicles from the Grand Alliance Joint Military and around 5,000 crewmen. The first general practice run-through began on 3 April 2050 in the Alabino Training Range with only the ground and mobile columns making their runs, as the separate practice runs for the air flypast column began in the airfield in Kubinka just kilometers away from Red Square.
