The Great Ottonian War was a military conflict in Northwestern Belisaria, sparked by and centered on Ostmark's struggle for independence against 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 Ghantish emperor Nathan III. In defense of its territorial integrity, Ottonia called upon the assistance of sympathetic governments in Æthele and Lyncanestria.

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.
