The Luepolan War (Vierz: Lüpolenkrieg), known in Luepola and Vorochia as the Liberation War (Luepolan: Oslobodnočni rát; Vorochian: Визвольна війна; Romanized: Vyzvol'na vijna), was a war from 1979 to 1985 in Luepola and Vorochia. The conflict was fought between the Vierz Empire, and Luepola and Vorochia, who both sought to exit the Vierz sphere of control.
The war was preceded by the March Uprising, in which mass protests and riots led to the ousting of the pro-Vierz Luepolan leadership by sympathetic military officers and members of the Luepolan legislature. The new Luepolan government's decision to withdraw from the Central Patyrian Cooperation Association provoked the Vierz invasion itself, which began in the following August. The pro-Vierz Vorochian government was also overthrown in the July 5 Coup d'Etat, prompting Vorochia to also be targeted by the Vierz invasion initially planned for solely Luepola. The war lasted for six years, ending with a
The Luepolan War remains the deadliest and most destructive war fought in Patyria since the Great War. The war is also considered the climax of the Silent War, as the weakening of Vierzland's economy and military over the course of the war ultimately led to the breakdown of the CPCA and later the Vierz Revolution, which saw the end of the Silent War and the Vierz monarchy.
