They reside in a state of cold war against Waffle Co. Their sworn nemesis within the Syndicate. During the more unstable periods of the Syndicate mobilization age, Donk Co. and Waffle Co. were in a state of all out war against each other. The reason for the war itself was actually a minor political scandal in the Commonwealth, as Donk Co. had secretly been bribing Commonwealth and Corporate officials in Waffle Co. properties as a form of corporate espionage. However, it ended up escalating when it was revealed when Waffle Co. was doing the exact same thing. | They reside in a state of cold war against Waffle Co. Their sworn nemesis within the Syndicate.
