===Third term, 2020-present===
In the [[2020 Tretridian federal election]], the Social Democrats won with a large enough margin to secure a majority government, becoming the first party other than the to do so for more than a century.
Foreign policy once again entered the public consciousness after the government of Nuovo Volscina was overthrown by [[Guerino Correvaci]], who declared himself king of [[Correva]]. Æthelstansunu backed Correvaci and accused of Volscina of violating Correvan territorial integrity both by having Volscine troops crossing the border and by [[Sinking of the NRN Constantino Buccio|sinking a Correvan ship in its own territorial waters]]. In the end, the League of Novaris mandated a referendum regarding the future status of Correva be held. The referendum went in favor of Correvan independence, though due to widespread election interference this only had the effect of causing the collapse of Correvan authority in the face of widespread rioting, leading to Correvaci fleeing the country and the League of Novaris [[Occupation of Correva|occupying Correva]].
Æthelstansunu's handling of Correva has been divisive, with supporters stating that his actions worked to defend the rights of sovereign state and critics accusing him of almost starting a war in West Novaris. Regardless, the crisis led to the rapid deterioration of [[Tretrid–Volscina relations]] and the reignition of tensions in what some critics have called a 'second Novaran Cold War.' Tretridian involvement in the [[Balistrian Coalition War]], and the resulting accusations of war crimes committed by the [[Tretridian Air Force]] in its [[w:strategic bombing|strategic bombing]] campaign amplified criticism of the Æthelstansunu government.
