The '''2014 Dverian War''' was a series of battles fought in and around Dveria between May and July 2014. After tensions between [[Vekaiyu]] and [[Dveria]] escalated over the small Dverian provinces of [[Goykag]] and [[Ikogu]], Dveria turned their attention northward to begin expansion into neighboring [[Tano]]. This resulted in both Vekaiyu and [[Listonia]] declaring war on the nation, followed closely with movements into the area provided by [[British Grand Pacific]], [[Volkia]], and [[South Hills]]. War broke out on two fronts - the south and the north - with Dverian armies squeezed in the middle. A balanced war soon deteriorated due to the death of the Dverian King, and both fronts were soon routed, with Vekaiyun forces racing to the capital, [[Nugala]].

The '''2014 Dverian War''' was a series of battles fought in and around Dveria between May and July 2014. After tensions between [[Vekaiyu]] and [[Dveria]] escalated over the small Dverian provinces of [[Goykag]] and [[Ikogu]], Dveria turned their attention northward to begin expansion into neighboring [[Tano]]. This resulted in both Vekaiyu and [[Listonia]] declaring war on the nation, followed closely with movements into the area provided by [[British Grand Pacific]], [[Volkia]], and [[South Hills]]. War broke out on two fronts - the south and the north - with Dverian armies squeezed in the middle. A balanced war soon deteriorated due to the death of the Dverian King, and both fronts were soon routed, with Vekaiyun forces racing to the capital, [[Nugala]].
 
The aftermath resulted in Dveria losing its sovereignty. Vekaiyu and Volkia divided Dveria inby a north-south twaindivide, with British Grand Pacific and South Hills occupying Tanothe Tanoese Sultanate. Listonia, which received no territorial gains, was assured protection by the other four nations from potential aggression with neighboring [[Sevropia]]nations, and was granted clearance to punch an outlet to [[Lake Miiyu]] through [[Elphana]]. These terms were hammered out during [[The Kerilo Accord]], which realized the formation of a powerful alliance, and paved the way for the formation of [[The Vekaiyun Union]] some months later.

===Dveria Attacks===
In March, 2014, a new king was crowned in Dveria. The King, Dago I, was quick to turn attention away from Vekaiyu and instead focused northward to neighboring Tano. The lucrative state had long been important to nations who traded in and out of the [[Gulf of Itur]], as the nation controlled waters exiting the gulf to the north. Dverian forces entered Tano on May 10th. South Hills and Volkia, both of which hadwere signedtied ato defensethe treatednation withthrough Tanobilateral defense treaties, immediately attempted to relieveassist the TanoTanoese forces, which waswere being routedoverwhelmed by the superior Dverian military in numbers and advanced technology. BritishBlaskog, Grandunder Pacificthe basis of protecting Tanoese sovereignty, entered theVolkian warmaritime toterritory en route towards the northGulf asof well,Itur butand enteredDveria. intoThe asituation conflictraised withthe tensions between the already-adversarial nations of Volkia and Blaskog, which hadforced enteredVolkian troops to restructure their military posture in the Straitsevent of Tanoa Blaskogian attack. This put a unannouncedstrain on the basisdefensive ofestablished protectingin Tano, sovereigntywhich provided an opening for Dveria. Volkia washad also been concerned with potential northern movement from Vekaiyu, nearwho had also come increasingly close to their landsterritorial waters.
 
However, Vekaiyu was more concerned with developments in Southern Dveria, where their armies were still on alert. The nation officially declared war on the state on May 11th, and neighboring state Listonia followed suit the next day. This series of events opened the war up on two fronts: The Northern Front located in Northern Dveria and Tano, and the Southern Front, located in Listonia and Southern Dveria.

===The Northern Front===

The war began in the Northern front, when a Dverian offensive pushed into Tano in a move to solidify Dveria's position, as many felt the country was being entrapped. The goal was to reach the Tano Straits and isolate South Hills from being able to respond, as Tano lacked aan organized military.
 
Originally, this was successful, knockingwith the pushback of both the unorganized Tanoan militia and South Hills military forces back inland, towards the biggestcities cityof inInsilovka East Tano,and BassvillePolevgorod. Logistics became a major issue for South Hills, as supplies had to be shipped from the mainland two-thousand miles away, however using overwhelming carrier-based airpower, the Dverian offensive came to a stall around Bassvillestandstill.
 
Following the arrival of the second Marine Expiditionary Unit into the fight, the tide eventually turned in BassvillePolevgorod, eventually expelling Dverian forces from the city,. howeverHowever, supply lines to the front lines were further hindered by a full-blown refugee crisis of TanoanTanoese citizens, many fleeing to Tano'sVolkia centerand Kurikia, but more notably to the Tanoese island of Kartoshka.
 
As South Hills Council of Governments forces moved south, [[Volkia]] began preparations for a seaborne assault ininto the northern provinces of Dveria,. and, in conjunction with a SHACOG push into Dveria, did so, and theThe two forces consolidated and pushed south into Dveria, with elements of the 2nd Armored Division of the South Hills Army linking up with Vekaiyun forces outside of the capital, Nugala, consolodatingmerging the northern and southern fronts of the conflict into one united front.
 
===The Southern Front===

The end of the war signaled the end of Dverian state. Victors of the 2014 Dverian War met in Kerilo, in Vekaiyu, on May 28th to discuss conditions for the war's end. Territorial gains were as follows:
* Vekaiyu gainedwas to militarily occupy [[South Dveria]] and theits capital, Nugala
* Volkia gainedwas to militarily occupy [[North Dveria]]
* South Hills establishedbrought Tano asunder aits protectorateprotection.
* British Grand Pacific established a foothold in Tano, named Naju
These claims, and the alliance that formed as a result, were outlined in [[The Kerilo Accord]], which forged a powerful alliance among strongthe signatory nations in [[The East Pacific]].

These claims, and the alliance that formed as a result, were outlined in [[The Kerilo Accord]], which forged a powerful alliance among strong nations in [[The East Pacific]]. While Listonia was not guaranteed any territorial gains, other signatory nations assured protection of the state against Sevropian or Dverian counter measures, and granted it clearance to obtain a corridor to Lake Miiyu into Elphana.
 
In addition, South Dveria would later be incorporated into [[The Vekaiyun Union]] as fighting continued to diminish in the vassal state.
