Third World War

The third world war was a conflict/series of conflicts and civil wars involving the nations of Keldin, The Republic of Hollica, the UUSR, Legumian Republic, The Kingdom of Astvin, Vyoxia, The Orgen Federation, Walldavia, the UTSR, the Ding Republic, the Socialist Republic of Sotahend, and the Kingdom of Appel. The war was sparked in 40 VY by the Utanian Crisis in which Keldin split between Monarchial and socialist powers. The socialists were backed by zarwonia to the north. This new socialist bloc in Utania stirred Vyoxia and Hollica, who soon declared war against North Keldin formally. Legumia and the Orgen Federation give rockets and missiles to the North Keldin Administration and Zarwonia, only serving to further ramp up the pressure. Meanwhile, the Sotahend Republic was having a civil war at the same time. It is likely that if Sotahend was not fighting with itself during this time that they would have joined in to back North Keldin since the socialists were gaining power there too. Thus, the Utanian Crisis caused the Third World War and the Civil Conflicts of the 40's, in which major socialist uprisings and power plays were made, along with including the Walldavian, Sotahendian, and Keldin civil wars.

By 41 VY itself, the Ding Republic established a blockade of the Keldin Monarchy, and Kinosu established support for the communists in North Keldin. At the same time, Walldavia launched an international invasion of Sotahend only resulting in Appelian aggression towards Walldavia. Appel already despised the Ding, and began preparing for an invasion of them too which would end up to be successful and occupy many of islands of the Ding Archipelago. Because of this, Appel calls in their ally Vyoxia and they too begin to prepare fighting Walldavia. All this pressure results in the Walldavian collapse and Civil War of Walldavia, which ends up bringing the UTSR to intervene and engage in skirmishes with Appel in Walldavia. In essence, 41 - 43 VY were some of the messiest and most chaotic years on record. By 44 VY the war in Keldin was over with the monarchist claiming victory. The Astvinian invasion of Legumia had failed, and soon after the Astvinian Civil war occurred due to infighting. The sheer amount of civil wars in this decade led to a severe reshaping of the political landscape, ultimately resulting in the decreased influence of Socialism despite the communist victory in Sotahend. 44 VY also marked the creation of the UUSR, a joint group between North Keldin, Zarwonia, and Legumia. Needless to with Zarwonia being purged of socialists in 48VY the UUSR broke up rather quickly. Legumia dropped out of the war, and Appel successfully forced the Ding Republic to capitulate. the UTSR established a semblance of peace and order in Walldavia, and soon returned the lands to the Revolutionary Council of Walldavia as an act of goodwill. The World war ended in 45 VY with the Monarchy in Keldin being re-established and Astvin engulfed in civil conflict. The UUSR and Zarwonian socialists were eliminated, and the political landscape was re-shaped dramatically for years to come.
