The War of the Black & Red (6h 2min, may 14, 1962 y – 10 h, sep 1, 1965 y)
Description:
During the 1960s, war broke out between the Saurian Union and the Greater Fevak Commonwealth. The war started because of the rival politics between the two extremely different ideologies of the two nations. As tensions rose quickly in the short period between April to May 1962, the conflict officially began with the Battle of Suzem where 2,300 Saurian troops attacked and sieged the small Fevak town where around 1,000 Fevak troops were stationed. The battle lasted for only 40 minutes and had only 104 casualties from the Saurian side and around 210 for the Fevaks. Only about 44 soldiers died from combat from both sides. Suzem was seen as a great victory for the Saurians and it helped boost recruitment rates in the UHSR. After the Battle of Suzem, the major offensive play from Sauria occurred roughly 2 weeks later where the red troops seized Odesval and Konmo and went for the major railroads and junctions to cut off supplies to the main population center and target of the GFC early in the war. Originally, Tsuyi Qauasami, dictator of the Saurian Union, had wanted the war to be a short war where the early disruptions in the Larifien railroads would prove ot be fatal but quickly the Fevak forces held out and put up a fight. A large reason as to why the war became a prolonged war of attrition is because the Mokirvian Haddakuist Socialist Republic did not enter the war until late 1963 and the southern rail lines continued to operate and flow through the Liopo region up to Brarith. Often times, both enemy soldeirs called the war the Red Rails War (a reference to the blood spilled over the important railroads and/or the main goal of the "red" troops of Sauria) while the politicians called it the Northern War of 1962 or the Rivals' War. The soldiers and politicians of the puppet states of the GFC, such as Oipientia, Norxima, and New Utikia, usually would call the conflict the Great War of the North or the War for Black and Red (referencing the most commonly perceived colors of the GFC (black) and the UHSR (red)).
Multiple theaters opened up throughout Fevakia, most notably the Larifien Theatre, Yetsoth Theatre, Southern Theatre, Eastern Theatre (Oipienta, Norxima, New Utikia), and the Sogian Theatre. While the majority of the fighting took place in the Larifien, Yetsoth, Southern, and Eastern theatres, the collapse of the Saurian line in the Yetsoth Theatre proved troublesome to the Hawan Haddakuist Socialist Republic as halfway through the war, they collapsed to an invading Fevak army. When Brarith fell on October 26, 1965, the rest of the GFC began to collapse and divide into regional conflicts and it allowed the Saurian troops to focus on the other theatres of war, especially in the Southern, Eastern, and Yestoth theatres. By the time of the fall of Brarith, the Eastern Theatre began to crumble for the invading Saurian forces. The Oipientian Front and the Old Linime point of conflict zone began to see reinforcements from the Oipientian Army and the New Utikian Army. However, the push back from the Oipientians and the Utikians being able to halt any further advances from the Saurian Union provoked Qauasami to strike a deal with the leaders of the two puppet nations regarding a complete pullout of all Saurian soldiers from the two nations respectfully. While the retreating GFC gov't was unaware of the agreement between the UHSR, Oipienta, and New Utikia, the Treaty of Redepemo was signed to:
- Complete pullout of all Saurian and allied troops
- Promise to the republics of Oipienta and New Utikia that if the Greater Fevak Commonwealth surrenders to the Union of Haddakuist Socialist Republics, the two republics gain full independence from the GFC
○ Transfer of former Oipientian territory taken by the Greater Fevak Commonwealth written in the Treaty of Arkek will be given back to the Republic of Oipienta
- The Republic of Norxima will be puppeted by the Saurian Union and will be subject to change henceforth complete vassalization.
After the fall of Brarith and the end of the Eastern Theatre, the Saurian Union was able to focus all of its might on the GFC, especially on the Southern and Yetsoth theatres. The Liopo Front was one of the three remaining holdouts of the Fevak government but with the nationalistic ideals of the many rebel factions in the region of Liopo, resistance groups helped aid in the surrender of fevak troops in the region. The surviving government of Greater Fevakia was relocated to Lotsakh in the Ceprania region. However, on September 1, 1965, the weak and heavily corrupt Greater Fevak government officially declared their full surrender to the Saurian Union. The outcome of the signed peace treaty, the Treaty of Lotsakh of 1965, explained the conditions as such:
- The Republics of Oipienta, New Utikia, and Norxima are to be granted full autonomy from the Greater Fevak Commonwealth
§ The Republic of Norxima will be administrated under the influence and control of the Saurian Union hence forth.
§ All former territories seized by the Greater Fevak Commonwealth will be given back to the Republic of Oipienta.
- The complete destruction of the Greater Fevak Commonwealth and its territories will occur
§ The independence of the Haddakuist Socialist Republic of Larifia (HSRL), Cepran Haddakuist Socialist Republic (CHSR), Kingdom of Larif-Pannalia, and Republic of Liopo will commence with the dissolution of the Government of the Greater Fevak Commonwealth
□ The HSRL and CHSR will be under the influence and control as vassal nations to the Union of Haddakuist Socialist Republics (Saurian Union/UHSR)
- Some Fevak territories to be transferred over to the administration of border nations such as the Saurian Union, Mokirvia, Dehiria, and Norxima.
- War reparations of 180,000,000 Saurian Dapirs will be paid in full by the Republic of Larifien during a 15 year time period to the Saurian Union and its puppet states.
- Reconstruction of the Hawan Haddakuist Socialist Republic to be completed by the Republic of Larifien and the CHSR.
- Prisoners of War to be returned to Brarith and Hawa respectfully.
With the conclusion of the war, the fall of the Greater Fevak Commonwealth left a power vacuum in the Fascist nations in Yueroki. The major players, Oipientian Republic, Grossyan Republic, Kingdom of Mecerek, and the Republic of Turroviq, decided to form a fascist organization that was called the Union of the Fascist States of Yueroki (U.F.S.Y). The organization was ran by the emboldened Grossyan Republic who had, at the time, just recently annexed Oluma and won the surprisingly long and grueling war against Xerri. AT the first Summit of the Union, the main apparent threat to the organization was declared to be the haddakuist ideology, with the Saurian Union and its puppet states as the main physical enemy. The regional threats to the integrity of each member state were also announced, with Oipienta having the 2nd Velzen Republic, Fasacist Republic of New Utikia, and the newly formed Svahan Haddakuist Socialist Republics as their main threats. Grossya declared the Velzen Republic, the Grand Duchy of Arkoss, and the Kingdom of Xerri as their rivals. The Republic of Turroviq felt threatened by the Kingdom of Nuomdeim and the Grand Duchy of Arkoss, while the Kingdom of Nuomdeim and the Ravos Republic were the supposed threats for the Mecerek Empire, even regarding the uneasy military alliance between the three.
Oipienta annexed Ireta shortly after gaining full independence from the GFC and then not too much later, invaded New Utikia, regardless of it being a fellow fascist nation. The majority of the fascist supporting common people in Oipienta disagreed with the choice to invade New Utikia and separated from the Fascist Part of Oipienta, forming the New National Socialist Party of Oipienta which was ironically less fascist than their former party. Numerous protests and riots occurred on the outbreak of the war in the largest cities in Oipienta. Tsivgale Reki Tasak had a small battalion of 600 soldiers often called by the protesters as the Black Battalion
