The Vyzhvan-Jedorian War (known to the Kolodorian People's Defense Forces as Operation Cobra) was an armed conflict between Kolodoria and Vyzhva. The war was fought over territorial disputes between the two countries, emphasized by Kolodorian desires to create an overland route linking northern and southern Kolodorian territories together in the west. The war began on 11 August 1985 when Kolodorian forces crossed the Audrius River and invaded Tamar, and ended when a ceasefire was agreed to on 17 March 1986.
Kolodorian efforts were driven by it's de facto dictator, General Secretary Aleksis Kraulis, who had long desired to link Kolodorian territories in the west together. Encouraged by Kolodorian gains during the Vinyan War, Kraulis ordered Kolodorian forces to seize Tamar from the north, while Kolodorian forces would strike from the south out of Tikinov and then move north. Kolodorian forces made good progress in the north, reaching as far south as the Denala River, but efforts in the south were stonewalled by Vyzhvan resistance. Despite several large scale offenses, Kolodorian forces were unable to make significant progress, and after months of perpetual stalemate, Kolodorian pushed for a ceasefire, which Vyzhva accepted.
Kolodorian gains, despite the ultimate strategic goal not being achieved, are believed to have convinced Kraulis of the ability of Kolodoria to seize what it wanted through military force, and is widely considered to have encouraged Kolodorian forces to invade Cherniya in 1996. Ironically, Kolodorian would eventually achieve the overland connection nearly three decades later in the aftermath of the 2019 Invasion of Vyzhva.
