War Cancelled

The Hoobah Boobah Land navy's one submarine being broken and repairs suspended for lack of spare parts, and its few other vessels forced to return to port because of high winds, Hoobah Boobah Land has "undeclared" war on South Africa, Chile, and Argentina. 

The Hoobah Boobah Land government has issued a statement:

"Because of a temporary inability to prosecute naval warfare, we have withdrawn all military forces from the open ocean.  We will offer the nations with which we have territorial differences 10 days to demonstrate their respect for the 800-kilometer ocean zone we have declared to be part of Hoobah Boobah national territory.  If respect for this 800-kilometer zone is not forthcoming, the Kingdom of Hoobah Boobah Land will again enter into a state of war with the Republic of Chile, the Republic of Argentina, and the Union of South Africa."

War!

Because the navies and merchant marine vessels of Chile, Argentina, and South Africa refuse to recognize the new 800-kilometer zone claimed by Hoobah Boobah Land, the Hoobah Boobah Government has declared war on all three of the above-named countries.

International law recognizes territorial waters as extending only 12 nautical miles from the coast.  Hoobah Boobah Land is not a signatory to any internationally-recognized agreements regarding territoriality of the oceans.  In fact, Hoobah Boobah Land has no treaties or agreements with any other sovereign powers at this time.  Neither does it maintain diplomatic relations with any other country.
