Line 248:
MOE finally came to GEE's aid providing them with the naval forces needed to effect the invasion. MOE sent 2 air craft carrier strike groups which included amphibious vessels. The GEE had an invasion force of 125,000 soldiers ready to attack the islands. MOE forces faced off with the Axdelian air craft strike group. Although the Axdelians were able to defend them for a time, the MOE's power was too great. Without support or reinforcements, Axdelian forces retreated to Indigo Island. Without Axdelian or any other defences, the GEE and MOE made their way to Yor. Faced with the peril of a brutal attack from the MOE and GEE, President Roberta Jones surrendered Yor to the GEE and MOE. The GEE placed the islands under military occupation and seized the military assets of the ROE including its naval ships. They placed ROE forces under imprisonment in internment camps on the Yor islands. Faced with the GEE, the Opposition Fighters collapsed and many of their troops went into hiding or were placed in internment camps on Yor. Many of the Lower Ethalrians who had fled to Yor were effectively trapped on the islands by the GEE. A quarantine was placed on the islands to prevent flight of people and capital. Despite protests, the population weary of conflict and brutally oppressed by the GEE forces were unable to mount a useful resistance and eventually acquiesced to GEE rules. With Yor under a military occupation, the GEE and MOE were able to focus their attention on an invasion of KO.
Although the Republic of Ethalria had surrendered, soldiers from the ROE military and the Opposition Fighters who had escaped capture by the GEE formed the South Yor Guard, a paramilitary guerilla group that aimed to combat the GEE occupation with asymmetric warfare. The GEE forces ordered the use of chemical weapons on Southern Yor, which was identified as a stronghold of the South Yor Guard. They had warplanes pour a dangerous chemical known as napalm onto the forests of Yor.
=== Battle of North Lower Ethalria ===▼
In Raufstreffen on 8 June 2017, Erwina Pipua directed General Alexandrina Larkov to mobilise 500,000 troops to the border with Great Morstaybishlia in anticipation of an invasion from the north. The next day, High Commander Erwin Pipua received intelligence that Great Morstaybishlia was in the throws of invading the MOE. She ordered General Larkov to add an additional 300,000 soldiers to the invasion force. With the approval of the Imperial Diet, additional rationing was put in place to set aside funds and resources to prepare for the fight with Morstaybishlia and Yor. GEE 5th, 7th and 18th Air Superiority Squadrons were placed on patrol with an order to shoot non-hailing aircraft on sight. ▼
Unbeknownst to the Ethalrians, the Kutherns and the Oans had orchestrated a plan for the Kutherns to seize Yor and for the Oans to invade Lower Ethalria from the south. The Kuthern Royal President Luaz Rico coordinated the plan in concert with Admiral Kiahuaeni Luaye. Admiral Luaye was resistance to President Rico's proposal to carpet bomb the Yor Isles because she strongly felt it would be a human rights violation. She instead suggested a surgical approach that would both defeat it and prevent a power vaccuum from forming. The Oans and the Kutherns struck a deal that the Oans would invade and occupy southern Lower Ethalria. The terms of the agreement included terms such as "take" which led to ambguity about the extent of the Oan Isles intervention in Southern Lower Ethalria. This gave rise to the claim by the Oan Isles that they were supposed to take full control of Southern Lower Ethalria. The initial plan was to have Great Morstaybishlia attack the north while the Oan Isles and Kuthernburg worried about the south. However, the Oan Isles wanted to work with the Tretridians, Mexregionans and Atlaesians before pushing on its own.

The next day, High Commander Erwin Pipua received intelligence that Great Morstaybishlia was in the throws of invading the MOE. She ordered General Larkov to add an additional 300,000 soldiers to the invasion force. With the approval of the Imperial Diet, additional rationing was put in place to set aside funds and resources to prepare for the fight with Morstaybishlia and Yor. GEE 5th, 7th and 18th Air Superiority Squadrons were placed on patrol with an order to shoot non-hailing aircraft on sight. In a surprise attack, Morstaybishlian forces fired on the patrol plane. Adjacent GEE jets alerted ground control. GEE Air Superiority fighters tried to chase the Morstaybishlian air forces out of Lower Ethalrian skies. The Morst jets fled to safer airspace in Staynes. The GEE air force was too frightened to attack Staynes directly and the commanders did not want to escalate a skirmish into a full-blown war without the authorisation of the High Commander. So they retreated.
The Oans used civilian places painted with symbols of the GEE to evade their attacks. They managed to intercept communications on callsigns from GEE, thus when GEE air traffic controllers hailed them, they used GEE callsigns, codes and authorised flight paths, allowing these planes to evade the fire of the GEE. This enabled the Oan Isles to land a parachute team on North Yor. Under the command of Admiral Rufornaks, the Kuthern navy strike group centered on the flagship, the air craft carrier Queen Naomi II, made its way to Yor. GEE forces focused the naval battle, missing the parachute attack of Oan special operations units surreptitiously descending over their heads. The Kutherns dropped joint direct attack munitions on GEE military targets. When the GEE air traffic control discovered that the civilian aircraft had been Oan, they tried to intercept them, but by then they were well on their way back to Indigo Island with under the escort of [[Royal Kuthern Air Force]] Raptor fighter jets beyond the reach of the GEE air force which was dealing with the aerial attack anyway.
Naval Commander Tesnof of the [[Royal Kuthern Navy]] managed to seriously cripple the GEE naval defences. This allowed Lieutenant Gary to lead a squadron of fighter jets and helicopters to provide the Oan forces with cover. The Oan and Kuthern forces managed to seize the headquarters of the GEE military government in Yor and capture their most senior officials. Oan forces also had a firefight with the GEE forces in at Rob Matterson Military Base where the GEE forces were holed in, trying to defend themselves. The Rob Matterson Base was of strategic importance because it was one of key centers for GEE operations. Cut of from the military government headquarters, the commanders at the Rob Matterson Base fought bitterly to prevent Oan and Kuthern capture. APCs came in to provide Oan and Kuthern troops with support and escort injured Oan and Kuthern soldiers. After a Kuthern armoured assault fighter (AAF) blew a hole in the Rob Matterson Military Base Hospital, senior GEE forces fled the base and the remaining GEE forces surrendered.
507th Kuthern artillery force managed to land once GEE naval defences were broken. They defeated GEE infantry and artillery still fighting near the docks and rendezvoused with the Oan and Kuthern team at Rob Matterson, clearing out any stray GEE forces in the process.
=== Battle of Kostoria-Obertonia ===
Under the name of Operation Red Eagle, the MOE and GEE planned to invade KO. The GEE used the assets recovered from the ROE to reconstitute its navy. Some ROE officers defected to the GEE and joined their military. Coupled with the naval fire power from the MOE, the GEE was poised to invade KO. To the misfortune of the Kostorians, a few GEE military vessels were coming online. Despite being hastily made, they surpassed KO's defensive capabilities. Furthermore, with some of their forces bogged down in the battle of Hindersville, KO's defences faced incredible challenges. A two-pronged attack was preferred: an invasion by land from the east and a naval blockade from the south and invasion by sea of the city of Nuremkastel.
The Oan air craft carrier strike group finally reached the Azure Sea. It established its base on Indigo Island with the permission of the government of Axdel.
