=====Morstaybishlian Secession War=====
In an interview with the MBC in 2014, [[Franklin Barvata]] described how success in ''Operation Fox Hunt'' falsely alluded the Morstaybishlian government into believing that the State would collapse because of a fragile leadership system, and that in the vacuum left by the death of George Vermana would allow the [[Royal Armed Forces of the Empire|Morstaybishlian Armed Forces]] an easier path to victory against a stunned and chaotic State military command.

No such government or military command collapse occurred, and Zecrod Furista was sworn in as the second president the same day. Kalmington hopes of civil unrest and internal conflict against the Furista government was not met. Morstaybishlian forces crossed the border on 18 October 2004 and was met by fierce resistance, though as the conflict progressed, [[Wikipedia:Blitzkrieg|lightning tactics]] were employed to encircle State units to force a quicker victory. However, George Vermana had predicted this in his tenure and had planted explosives on every road across the border. When these eplosives were detonated, the Morstaybishlian fast attack strategies were useless. Warfare on the ground continued slowly, and battles were mainly fought in the air and at sea.

In the north, the MBE's delayed landings as a result of the 2004 Packilvanian Ocean Typhoon season's Typhoon Ariezoe made continual permanent territorial gains as forces on land pushed south. In the east, State forces fought hardest and territorial gains were harder come by. The capture of Skaul, Queenschester and Fort Staynes had Zecrod Furista on the defensive. By April 2005, as Kalmington was preparring for the [[2005 Great Morstaybishlia General Election|2005 genral election]], forces aboard the [[Wikipedia:INS Vikrant (2013)|''Baltassar''-class]] MBS ''Baltassar'' (the lead ship of her class) mutinied, and surrendered to the Morstaybishlian Fleet. Further waves of surrendering forces saw morale in Furista's government fall dramatically. Several politicians and members of State High Command either attempted unsuccessfully or successfully to leave to seek refuge in Morstaybishlia and avoid imprisonment by revealing sensitive strategies or secrets which could help the war effort. Only two out of six high ranking politicians and military command managed this feat.
During fierce combat in the Battle of Kasilly Point, MBS ''Roumont'', under command of the State, was sunk and destroyed by a [[Wikipedia:Sukhoi Su-27|Vezra GE-25]] fourth-generation fighter. Other smaller vessels on both sides were sunk.
At some point during 16 to 20 September 2005 Zecrod Furista fled the country, and on 24 September 2005 the State of Morstaybishlia surrendered. The new [[Prime Ministers of Great Morstaybishlia|Prime Minister]] [[Walter Johannes]] travelled to Redrugus on 26 September and declared 'the people are free, and this dark chapter of Morstaybishlia's history is over'.
Preliminary talks in early 2005 between Great Morstaybishlia, [[Axdel]] (who's political relationship with Morstaybishlia had improved drastically since the [[Lyrevale Continuation War]] nineteen years before) and the [[Ethalria (Republic)|Republic of Ethalria]] would form the basis of the Western Auroran Pact (WAP), which would become the precursor of the [[Intercontinental Regional Security Accords]] (IRSA). A main proponent to the groups formation was unity against secessionist movements, which all parties had partial issues with.
