The González Archipelago Dispute was a diplomatic and armed conflict between the Republic of Narsora and the Democracy of Torisakia over the González Isles, a chain of islands off the North-Western coast of Torisakia. While a mostly diplomatic dispute between the two countries, major armed conflicts have erupted on two occasions in 2009 and 2014.
Background
The archipelago was put under Narsoran control after it's borders were drawn in 1957, as an overseas territory. In 1960 after gaining full sovereignty as a country the islands permanently became a part of the new Republic Of Narsora. As an overseas territory, the islands attracted quite a large number of immigrants whom were leaving oppressive governments in neighboring regions. After formation of the country's armed forces in late-1960, a military complex was set up on the island of Pequeña to be used as a strategic post to deter communist threats that were present at the time. Beginning in mid-1969, the government of the then Libertarian Republic of Torisakia laid claims to the islands stating that as the territory was in their maritime border it had been "stolen" from them. They demanded the islands be returned to their control, a demand which the narsoran government immediately declined. The government of torisakia stated it would reclaim the area by force if necessary, which led to an annexation by Torisakian security forces in 1973. Since then tensions have flared between the countries, leading to two large conflicts in 2009 and 2014 and several smaller skirmishes.

Consequences of the Conflict
Political
As a result of the conflict, relations between the two countries continued to deteriorate and were, as of December 2014, all but non-existent. After of the end of the conflict in 2019, tensions have greatly improved.
Financial
Both countries spent tremendous amounts of money on the conflict; as of 2019 the Narsoran government had spent an estimated $110.5 Billion on the conflict. The conflict is one of many factors believed to have led to the decline of the narsoran economy from 2008 to 2013.
Public Opinion
According to a poll taken at the end of 2014, only 15% of the Narsoran public supported a possible land invasion of the islands. Though the public sentiment on both sides were generally against any conflict, as it was seen as a pointless endeavor over islands that many felt had no particular importance.
Reuben Doctrine
On December 20th 2019, in González Isle City all parties formally agreed to end armed hostilities. They were represented by Narsoran Joint Staff of the Armed Forces General Diego Casales and General James Evans respectively, and both foreign ambassadors; Julián Molina and David Thompson respectively. As a result, all portions of the González Archipelago are permanently recognized as Torisakian territory.
