2001-2003 Great Lakes Conflict: Difference between revisions

The Great Lakes Conflict involved fighting between Kuthernburg and NSTO, vs Creya, their allies from 2001 - 2003.

Following the Kuthern Civil war, no serious diplomatic efforts tried to resolve the issues at the heart of the Creya - Kalatian conflict. The Creyan President Ahkeem Belonoa believed that only military initiative would compel Kuthernburg or the international community to facilitate a full Kalatian withdrawal from Altaesia, and hostilities soon resumed across the Great Lakes.

These initially took the form of limited artillery duels and small-scale incursions into Creya, but by late 2000, the Creyan Army judged itself prepared for larger-scale operations. On July 12th, 2001, Belonoa proclaimed the official launch of the Great Lakes Conflict, characterized by large-scale shelling along the Kuthern Great Lakes coast, extensive aerial warfare, and commando raids. Hostilities continued until March 2003 and ended with the annexation of Creya into Kuthern control.
