The '''Great Ottonian War''' was a military conflict in Northwestern Belisaria, sparked by and centered on [[Ostmark|Ostmark's]] struggle for independence against [[Ottonia|the Ottonian Federation]], and the ensuing intervention of [[Liothidia]] and [[Cynereth]] therein. The war expanded in 1935 with the invasion of Ottonia's western seaboard by the forces of [[Ghant|Ghantish]] emperor [[Nathan III of Ghant|Nathan III]]. In defense of its territorial integrity, Ottonia called upon the assistance of sympathetic governments in [[Æthele]] and [[Lyncanestria]].
The '''Great Ottonian War''' was a military conflict in Northwestern Belisaria, centered on the conflict between republican [[North Ottonia]] and monarchist [[South Ottonia]]. It was in many ways a direct continuation of the [[Ottonian Civil War]] that had divided [[Ottonia]] into two rival states.  


By the time the war ended in 1940, Ostmark had already achieved de facto independence, and its Schraderist faction had been defeated, Ghantish forces had been driven from Ottonian shores, and tensions had been renewed between Ottonia and Liothidia. The war also brought ruin and devastation to Ottonia, which would suffer from dire economic consequences, including a famine, in 1942 and 1943. The consequences of the war would be a direct cause of the eruption of the [[Ottonian Revolution]] in 1943.
The war lasted from 1935 to 1942 and involved direct hostilities between the two Ottonian states, as well as interventions by [[Ghant|Ghantish]], [[Yisrael|Yisraeli]], and [[Ostrozava|Ostrozavan]] forces. The conflict resulted in widespread economic devastation for Ottonia as a whole, as well as leading to significant territorial gains for North Ottonia.
