The '''Ethal-Salovi War of 1966-1967''', sometimes called the '''Lowurt War''', was fought between [[Salovia]] and the [[Ethalria (Grand Matriarchy)|Ethalria]] from 1966 to 1977. Salovia precipitated the war less than a month after the 1966 Salovian federal election by sending a force of troops into the Lowurt region.
The towns of Adaberg and Litwenz were captured, and Salovian forces destroyed the only bridge crossing the Lenevi River into Ethalria, the Khalfbrücke.

Direct conflict between the forces ensued, Ethalria later ambushed the Salovian rear and captured five thousand POWs. More Salovian forces engaged with the Ethalrians as they evacuated the civilians across into Ethalria; this engagement lasted from December through till mid February where the fronts solidified.
