The Nainese Civil War (Nainese: 内戰奈人; Nội chiến Nài Nhân), commonly referred to in Nainan as the Patriotic War for Revolution (Nainese: 戰爭愛國朱局革𠇮; Chiến tranh ái quốc cho cuộc cách mạng) was an armed conflict in Nainan between government the Kingdom of Nainan, socialist Nainan People's Republic, and the nationalist revolutionary Harmonious Republic of Nainan lasting from February 1956 to October 1964.
(Background, distain for monarchy, revolution, protests)
The failed attempt to purge the military of revolutionaries lead to the takeover of Canhdong in February by military supporters of the NPSL, here Hoàng Viện Trai declared the Harmonious Republic of Nainan. After this supporters would arm themselves alongside the nationalist military, and after more defections quickly took the capitol Trinhieu less than a week later. In the south, the PNQC had taken much of the city of Setrong, and leader Kiều Mạnh Kiến declared the Nainan People's Republic. The monarchy of Vinh Áo would retreat to the city of Tài Lẽ, with only around 50,000 troops still loyal to the government. The nationalist army numbering at 130,000 strong, now known as the Army of Solidarity and Longevity, quickly pushed towards Tài Lẽ and surrounded the city. By the end of April the Kingdom capitulated and Vinh Áo would run away to Werania.
The country was left between the socialists in the south and nationalists in the north. Danok and Ryo rebels quickly fell to the Nationalist army, the Makhao and Nieh minorities were predominantly pro-socialist and their rebel militias joined them. The first major battles took place in March south as Tài Lẽ, as part of a socialist offensive to take the city, it was repelled. The first year of the war was slow and mainly a stalemate. This would change as the Trucial Wars broke out in 1958 in Zomia, the United Zomi Councils quickly took much of the country and opened a supply line from Dezevau and Lavana to the socialists in Nainan. The socialists began to make small pushes in the east throughout 1960, much with their new supplies and aid. The only major battle at the time was around the city of Giáo Điện, and ending in a socialist victory. The nationalists began a major offensive to cut off their supply lines by attacking areas near the northwestern border with Zomia, and had their sights on Rêu Sơn.
Rêu Sơn was the central command center of socialist forces in the west, the offensive began at the end of 1960 and the nationalists adopted guerilla tactics to attack socialist guerilla forces. Many of the socialist forces were left static without any major targets. This lead to a quick defeat of socialist forces around the city and it fell in spring 1961, and the land supply lines in the north were cut off. The nationalists kept soldiers to watch the borders for any socialist movements southward. The nationalists then continued their offensive and took much of the west of the country by the end of 1962. This was also alongside offensives in the east and the capture of Cá Triều cutting off water supply lines.
