Following the 1957 peace, a period of tense peace followed. Both North and South were quick to buff up areas where they had suffered in the previous war, the North was quick to set out to strengthen its economy and infrastructure seeking to improve its supply infrastructure while acquiring advanced tanks from fellow Socialist nations. The South for it’s part seeked to strengthen it’s airforce acquiring foreign fighter planes, to make up for it’s abysmal performance in the civil war. The war had although solved some issues such as pushing the Northern border to the Bin river, and some exchanges in population, the North had not been willing to surrender the heights surrounding Nazica after the battle of Voly Na, and it was a perceived point of renewed conflict as both sides fortified the area. | |||

In 1961 the election of Premier Pedro Vulsinio renewed Northern nationalism and aggression, Pedro was quick to begin military maneuvers in the Voly Na to test Southern resolve. Unio Ulba, the president of the south since 1960 was adamant in condemning the maneuvers internationally, until Southern units began maneuvers in Nazica themselves. In early October border skirmishes and exchanges of fire in the Voly Na prompted both sides to buff up their defenses in the region. The 21st a Northern plane was shot down in the Tziran prompting Northern forces to mobilize, and demands for reparations and backing down in the south began. The South responded by mobilizing and calling for northern backing down, as the Northern plane had strayed into Southern controlled airspace. | |||
The South in response to shelling in Nazica in response to the downing of the aircraft launched an aerial raid on the Voly the 24th, prompting inferior Northern aircraft to flee into Chistovodia fearing their destruction if they remained in Vinalia. The attack, although did not inflict much damage on the Northern forces, kickstarted Northern planning to launch a major offensive in the Bin River region for November to hold an upper hand upon the South, when negotiations eventually began. Northern shelling of Nazica continued wanting to inspire further Southern aggression which resulted in Southern bombing of Voly Na the 25th and 26th, and a raid against an empty airfield in Northern Vinalia the 27th. | |||

Military
The People’s Defence Force is tasked with the defence of the Vinalian Sovereignty and interests, it’s divided into the People’s Army, People’s Navy, People’s Air Force, People’s Coast Guard, and the People’s Guard. The People’s Guard is a provincial level unit under the command of Provincial Governors. Although the Army has been fully professional since 1992, the People’s Guard relies on Conscripts to fulfill its role, this is to ensure that there will always be a 50/50 division between Northerners and Southerners, but Military Service is not required of those conscripted with civil duty jobs available. Vinalia has undergone rapid demilitarization from the Civil War going from around 750,000 between both Vinalia’s to some 100,000 plus 25,000 People’s Guard. By law expenditure may not exceed 1.5% of GDP in peacetime, unless approved by both houses of Parliament and the Constituent Houses.
