The Nelborne Front was a theatre of war during the First World War. It began when the Nelbec Empire attacked Lormotia and invaded New Svealand in August 1914. Allied to the German Empire, the Nelbec Empire was at war with the Allied powers and sought to strengthen the Central powers' position in the Nelborne against the British Empire. By winter, Nelbec advances had largely stalled as both sides dug in and established elaborate trench networks, whose position would change little until 1918.
Between 1915 to 1917 the Nelbec Empire launched several additional. offensives. Lormot defences within the Yerjtan mountains bottlenecked Nelbec advances who were unprepared for mountain warfare, resulting in unprecedented casualties. Svealandic defences suffered under initial Nelbec attacks but held the line with Allied support, with the 1916 Battle of Langadalr being a major turning point.
By 1917, the Civil Council and Military-Civilian Council, in Alquiya and Seketan respectively, advocated for the end of the offensives. A successful Svealandic counteroffensive broke the morale of the Imperial Nelbec Army, accelerating a series of losses that would eventually lead to the defeat and eventual collapse of the Nelbec Empire. In Seketan, a civil war broke out between the recognized Republic of Seketan against Sosymet and left-wing militants. In Alquiya, the Civil Council established the Republic of the South Nelbecs and Trjebs in accordance to the Nelbec Empire's surrender in the Treaty of Glasgow.
Background
The Nelbec peoples have inhabited the Nelborne for millennia and, by the 19th century, had formed three principal Nelbec states: Alquiya, Lormotia and Seketan.
