Auroran-Cerenerian War: Difference between revisions

The islands of [[Yor]] had been a dependent territory of the [[Republic of Ethalria]] (ROE). A resistance movement called the Opposition Fighters of Yor arose to end the rule of the ROE and its puppet government, the Dominion of Yor. This led to the Yor Civil War. The Opposition Fighters received the support of Al-Jaheed, an internationally recognised terrorist group from [[Latianburg]]. In the midst of the Yor Civil War, reports emerged from refugees who were rescued by a merchant vessel from Furnifold that the ROE was committing human rights violations. Faced with condemnation from the international community, the ROE started negotiating with OFOY. Fascist movements took advantage of this act and orchestrated a coup d'état on 28 May 2017 and proclaimed the Greater Ethalrian Empire led by High Commander Erwina Pipua. The ROE government fled to and formally took over Yor along with their entire Navy, half of the rest of their military and about 2 to 3 million refugees. Faced with a common enemy, the ROE and the OFOY declared a truce. [[Amalda Harimann]] of the [[Matriarchy of Ethalria]] and High Commander Pipua of the GEE formed the Rivendale Pact.

The APW formally began on 29 May 2017 when [[the Oan Isles]] declared war on the GEE and MOE. King [[Lambertus VII]] of [[Great Morstaybishlia]] called a conference of allied nations to form the [[Sani Bursil]] Alliance. [[Viktor Drugov]] of [[Stratarin]] was among the attendees and committed his country to assisting, but Mikhail Starikov overthrew him and revealed that he had aligned Stratarin with the Rivendale Pact bringing Stratarin into the war. This wrought chaos in the [[South-East Pacific Coalition]] because some its members were part of opposing military pacts. Attempts to get Stratarin to admit to the coup failed and the SEPC collapsed. FFor analytical purposes, the war is divided into three fronts: the Upper Ethalrian Front, Lower Ethalrian Front and [[Pacific Ocean]] Front.
