In the year 1958, there were two great nations that made up the land that is now known as Alecburgh. These two nations were Oloan in the north, ruled by King Jackson the Third, and South Croix in the south, ruled by Empress Lily the Second.


On the 8th day of Febuary, 'The Day of Reckoning', Jackson ordered that the Oloanese Military to push south towards South Croix. Empress Lily II, pleaded to leave her peaceful nation alone. It had been over 18 months since the last conflict between the two rival nations due to the signing of the Costa de Sol Treaty. The military kept moving south, and officially broke over the South Croix northern border near modern-day Phalayto, Maveriga. Lily reluctantly declared war, and ordered her own troops, who were much smaller due to the new found peaceful nature of the nation.
Out of no where, King Jackson ordered ab attack against South Croix, and after multiple attacks against the border between the two nations, Empress Lily reluctantly had to declare war, which lead to the [[Second Oloanese-Southern Croix War| Gulf of Croix War]].
 
 
'''The Burning and then Batle of Phalayto'''
 
After the Burning of Phalayto, which killed Southern Croix author Xerxes Lentigold, who wrote ''My Sun has Set'' (and almost burned the first copy), the Southern Croix troops finally arrived and made a 'V' formation towards Phalayto, causing the much larger group of Oloanese troops to prepare for an attack. After over 3 hours of silence in which the air could be cut with a knife, a shot was fired. Historians do not know who fired first; the Southern Croix or the Oloanese, but most agree that it triggered the first battle between the two nations.
This portion of the Southern Croix Army, led by General Levi Intitu, pushed towards the troops and fired at any moving target, which included innocent citizens. As they marched in, the Oloanese group, led by Dante Patrie-Lewiston, had the advantage as the Southern Croix came closer.
Due to some bad choices by Initu to disperse his troops, Patrie-Lewiston successfully defeated the incoming troops, leading to the end to the first battle of the Second Oloan-Southern Croix War after 4.5 days of fighting. After gaining control of Phalayto, the Oloanese front then submitted control over both Urbaet and Paulen Counties within Maveriga.
 
'''The Battle of East Bay'''
 
It had been about 2 weeks since the end of the first major battle, and after a handful of skirmishes which resulted in little loss of life for both sides, but a slight growth of land for Oloan, tension began to boil once more. Southern Croix General, Ezon Maliko, chose to position his group of men in the, then, small town of Raeven located on the southern coast of East Bay. In his journal, Maliko wrote (translated from Southern Croix):
 
''"2 weeks since shots [fired] in Phalayto, many men lost. We must fight harder than ever if we want to survive... the East Bay is safer. I've ordered an encampment in Raevan, giving us easy visuals of both the east, west, and the obvious north in case the invaders are too foolish to come from the Gulf."''
 
In this short entry, we understand exactly why Maliko chose to set up camp in Raevan. However, this encampment would only last around 15 days before Maliko wrote in his journal once again about an impending attack a scout warned him about.
 
''"About 4 hours ago, Leka [the scout], warned me of a group of men wearing Oloanese gear around 3.6 miles northeast of our camp. I have ordered the immediate prepareness by my soldiers, and ordered a safety perimeter to be built."''
 
This would turn out to be the final entry in Maliko's journal until 6 weeks later when he added a new one before the Invasion of Westwood by the small Southern Croix Navy.
 
Less than 17 hours past the time Maliko filled out his journal, Oloanese troops began to come due north east, just across Caotele Creek. Although Maliko had the advantage unlike how the Oloanese did in the Battle of Phalayto, he chose to stand his ground. This is exactly what would happen for an estimated 41 days, when after slight losses of life on either side, Maliko and his troops pulled off a defeat against an unknown general<sup>1</sup> and their troops.
 
<small>1. Although it can not be confirmed to the dismay of most historians, many agree that the General was Edwin Vaanter, a Oloanese General who was assigned the eastern coast of East Bay. Other than a mention in the Oloanese ''Milito Offici du Sekon Suter Croix Battai'' (Militarial Officials of the Second Southern Croix War), there is not much known about Gen. Vaanter before his engagement in the Ramshase Pillages across far northeastern Airol Province between the Battle of Phalayto and the Battle of East Bay.</small>
