====== Offensives and Operations ====== | |||
One hour after the death of the King of Lethinia, at around 3:00am, Kelbanian Colonial Empire had sent four F-117 Nighthawk's in the intention of bombarding major cities in Youthenheim. The bombardments lasted around 4 hours (until 7:25am). The biggest bombardment was on the capital, Baranski City which had been destroyed around 40%. Estimates say around 100,000 civilians were killed and another 300,000 were injured in the cruel bombing of Baranski City. Besides the capital, the bombardments were also done to the cities of New Heim, Irucia and Salvendra, in which around 400,000 citizens were killed and 500,000 were injured in total. | One hour after the death of the King of Lethinia, at around 3:00am, Kelbanian Colonial Empire had sent four F-117 Nighthawk's in the intention of bombarding major cities in Youthenheim.

Later that day, in a surprising move that has shaken the global geopolitical landscape, the nation of Abarc has announced its effective entry into the war alongside the Axis of Freedom, launching a large-scale offensive against the International League of Humanity. The target of the operation is the strategically important Brasienburg, a location of critical importance to the ongoing conflict. Abarc has mobilized a colossal army of 4 million soldiers, equally divided between the forces of Abarc and those of its ally, The Kelban Island (Kelbanian Colonial Empire). The landing strategy has been meticulously planned: 2 million Abarc soldiers will split in half, with one part landing on the southernmost island, where Brasienburg’s capital is located, and the other half attacking the most western point of the territory. Simultaneously, the forces of the Kelban Empire will follow an identical action plan. The landing operation will be launched from the colony of Terracaval, a territory under Abarc’s dominion, which will serve as a transition point for the troops before the assault. After a successful landing, a rigorous naval blockade is planned along the entire coast of Brasienburg, from both the south and the north, aiming to cut off any possibility of reinforcements or supplies for the enemy forces. This bold maneuver by Abarc is seen by many analysts as a potential turning point in the war, possibly altering the balance of power and defining the course of future events. The world watches closely as the situation unfolds. | Later that day, in a surprising move that has shaken the global geopolitical landscape, the nation of Abarc has announced its effective entry into the war alongside the Axis of Freedom, launching a large-scale offensive against the International League of Humanity.

On the same day as King Philippe's death, the new Queen Alisa had shocked the world by sending the First Man into Space and Crowning herself as Empress. Aboard the spacecraft Villa 1, Lethini cosmonaut Vlasta Sherd becomes the first human being to travel into space. During the flight, the 27-year-old test pilot and industrial technician also became the first man to orbit the planet, a feat accomplished by his space capsule in 89 minutes. Villa 1 orbited Terra at a maximum altitude of 187 miles and was guided entirely by an automatic control system. The only statement attributed to Sherd during his one hour and 48 minutes in space was, “Flight is proceeding normally; I am well.” After his historic feat was announced, the attractive and unassuming Vlasta became an instant worldwide celebrity. He was awarded the Order of Alexander and given the title of Hero of the Lethinia. Monuments were raised to him across Lethinia and streets renamed in his honor. | On the same day as King Philippe's death, the new Queen Alisa had shocked the world by sending the First Man into Space and Crowning herself as Empress.

====== Braisenburg Prepares for War ====== | |||
Brasienburg, with a population of 77,540,687, is preparing for an unprecedented war effort. Of its population, 25,731,800 men and women, ages 19 to 45, were selected for the essential war effort. Of these, 17,744,583 were immediately directed to the battlefield. Those who underwent mandatory conscription more than 15 years ago will receive training to adapt to new weapons. The remainder of this population, made up of 7,987,217 inhabitants, was redirected to essential industries, such as agriculture, manufacturing, weapons and ammunition production, among others. Minors and the elderly were relocated by families to live together in shelters provided by the government. Most of these shelters are the homes of families whose heads were sent to war. The Brasienburgian government has been praised for its rapid mobilization for war. However, the need for accelerated production of weapons and ammunition is creating external debt. To solve this problem, the government created an emergency measure in which private properties uninhabited and unused during the war will be taken over by the government. The president, fearing a drop in public opinion, promised a high reward for conscripts who survived the war, with a pay of Đ98,638 per battle or per week of war. If soldiers die, the State guarantees that the pay will be passed on to their non-combatant family members. If both parents of a minor die in the line of duty, a benefit of Đ32,879 will be passed on monthly to the young Brasienburgian's new guardian. School spaces are being used as bomb shelters and in the future will be used as orphanages for young people who no longer have any legally responsible relatives alive. The organization is being carried out digitally, where each citizen is receiving their own code in an extremely rigid system of organization, which is being promulgated through a hidden hyperserver within Brasilenburgian territory. | Brasienburg, with a population of 77,540,687, is preparing for an unprecedented war effort.

Due to the history of peaceful conflict resolution, Brasienburg was only able to send around 3 million units to the war front, due to the lack of equipment. Two million were sent to the south to respond to the enemy attack, where all the forces of the Brasienburgian Army will be focused to force a break in the maritime blockade created by Abarc. For this, 4 Nimitz Class aircraft carriers are being used, carrying AS365K Pantera helicopters, to identify submarines, and 12 Arleigh Burke Class destroyers, being protected by more than 144 Inhaúma Class corvettes. To the east, Brasienburg has sent 1 million units to S. A. (Silva Areas), where he hopes to delay the enemy using guerrilla tactics within the jungle. | Due to the history of peaceful conflict resolution, Brasienburg was only able to send around 3 million units to the war front, due to the lack of equipment.

First Offensive: Peninsula Conquest | |||
On the westernmost front of Brasienburg, Abarc advanced southeast, capturing a strategic peninsula and securing strategic control over the southern coast of the continent. This victory allows a significant foothold for future operations in the region. | |||
Second Offensive: Advance on the Capital Island | |||
To the south of the island that houses the capital of Brasienburg, Abarc's forces carried out an offensive directed northwest, conquering several kilometers of coast. This strategic advance puts Abarc's troops in an advantageous position to pressure the capital. | |||

The last offensive, also originating in the south of the island, aimed to approach the capital following the coast. The maneuver aims to encircle the city and cut its supply lines, preparing the ground for a possible siege. | |||
Casualties and Resistance | |||
Abarc's battalions, facing the guerrilla tactics employed by Brasienburg, suffered approximately a thousand casualties. On the other hand, Brasienburg's forces suffered significant losses, with about 12,000 soldiers lost in the offensives. The operations highlight Abarc's ability to conduct complex operations in challenging terrains, despite the fierce resistance and guerrilla tactics of Brasienburg. The world watches closely as the situation continues to develop. | |||

Regional History
Pre-Starting
Roses Without Thorns was officially founded on December 31,2023 by the Queendom of Quihorshe, with the region only having 2 nations by the end of January. Much of regional history during this time was undocumented and lost.
The Raid
On February 3rd, 2024, Roses Without Thorns was tag raided with an attack by the Brotherhood of Malice and the Black Hawks, successfully seizing the region and becoming WA delegate.

Regional embassies with raider regions were subsequently closed a few days later.
Post - Starting

Roleplay History
2004
The Dawn (March 2004)
The fall of Kelra led many of it's powerful nations to flee the planet and resettle on a new planet, Lacia in 2004.
In the beginning, the world of Lacia was inhabited by six nations: Kelban Island, Abarc , Plajevo, Braisenburg, Lethina and Franexia. These nations were considered the first civilizations to rise and thrive in Lacia.
As Lethinia has inhabited the peninsula for a very long time, the nation seeked to expand outside its borders. The looked up, at the Aviére Islands and at the east, the Loten Highlands. Lethinia decided to do a bold move by claiming these lands mentioned, making Lethinia the first ever nation to expand past its borders. They built settlements at the places, thankfully there werent habited by native tribes which could disturb the inhabiting process.
As Lethinia inhabited the Aviére Isles, some sailors decided to explore farther from the isles and they discovered smth shocking. Many Islands!! .They decided to name it "The Aviére Archipelago". Lethinia decided to inhabit these isolated islands and build many settlements .Many people called these expansions "Early-Colonization" (not "full" colonization) bcs these newly claimed islands being far away from the mainland.
As Lethinia was expanding, The great Empire of Kelbania is growing in strength. Their glorious Emperor Henry Wert, had decided to make their military more powerful. The decision was made a month ago, and now their military vehicles are one of the most powerful in all of Lacia. The Royal Military has now 1,250,000 active personnel and even more in reserves. Their vehicles have also got an upgrade. They had made new generation of Tanks, Armored Vehicles and Fighting Jets They have now 3,000 tanks, 20,000 Armored Vechicles, 600 New generation Fighting Jets and around 7,000 other class vehicles.
The Kelbania Emperor had also made another decision. After being notified of a terrorist organization forming near the Empire, Emperor Henry Wert has decides to fortify our borders. They now have 470,000 soldiers securing safety of our Nation. ,,
The Empire will maintain its safety at all costs''- said Emperor Henry Wert in his last public speech.
The Colonization Event (April 2004)
Many nations, not wanting to be left behind by the expanding Lethinia, also began setting up colonies all throughout Lacia. The first of these was Kelban Island, after their great Emperor announced the expansion of the Kelbanian Empire. As he has said in his last public speach, The Kelbanian Empire will expand south, taking many forest territories, as well as some of desert territories. The great Nation will also form a small border with the United States of Youthenheim. This new change will help Kelban Island in improving our relations with the USY and hopefully, make us close allies.
Kelban Island had Colonized a part of the Island north to the main land of Kelbanian Empire. The colony has been named Kelbania and will be ruled by Prime Minister Claus Renti. There are some reports that the Island is inhabited by primitive tribes, but for now they stay hidden. Emperor Henry Wert has decided to colonize the island, becouse of its high amount of Petroleum that we need for evolving our military, industry, etc. Besides that, the colony will be avaiable as a place to live for citizens when the first city will be built.
As Kelban Island was expanding, Lethinia also carried out expansions of it's own again, with Lethinia having colonized two peninsulas (named Fersé) as a Royal Colony in Lethinia. But shockingly natives lived there, but thankfully they weren't hostile and were willing to talk. Lethinia got all of its land while the Natives became a "Princely state" AKA a colony but not a colony and more autonomous. The Natives decided to become a "Princely state" because they dont really wanna fight a nation that has a 28-tuple army and it was better to be a "Princely state" instead of dying and being a territory.
As April 2004 was coming to a close, the Kelbanian Empire's emperor delivered a speech to the Kelbanian public, announcing the end of the Kelbanian Rapid Colonization.
Hello citizens of the Kelbanian Empire. This is a direct message from the Emperor Henry Wert: Today, our Empire has made Another Colony! It is our fifth and for now, final colony. With the new colony, comes a new chapter of our Empire. The Kelbanian Empire is no more. From now on, the will be the Kelbanian Colonial Empire You may ask, what is the first decision of the Kelbanian Colonial Empire? Well i come with an answer. We have been long enough threatened by the Terrorist organization know as GROT Kelban People. Thats why the Royal Kelbanian Armies have now crossed the border between Kelbanian Colonial Empire and GROT Kelban People. It is our only Military operation and we dont want any help from other nations."- DM from Emperor Henry Wert to the Kelbanian people.
During the rapid colonization event, the nation of Franexia also had its election on the new Franexian Prime Minister. The election featured three candidates for the position, Maksim Rewiń (Workers Party of Franexia (WPF)), Raxon Qort (Franexian Republican Party (FPP)), Jack Wert (Cousin of the Emperor of Kelban Island) (Democratic Party of Freedom (DPF)), and Franek Rebin (Elite Military Group of Franexia (EMGF)). The elections took place on the 10th of April with the WPF candidate Maksim Rewin winning the election.
Abarc's Transformation
In Abarc, in a historic event that stunned the nation and the world, King Charles announced his abdication from the throne after decades of reign. The official ceremony, held at the royal palace, was marked by moments of deep emotion and respect for the monarch's decision. King Charles, known for his commitment to philanthropy and international diplomacy, expressed his desire to spend more time with his family and dedicate himself to humanitarian causes. In his farewell speech, he thanked the people for their continued support and declared his full confidence in the heir to the throne. Prince Carlos, heir and eldest son of King Charles, was crowned in a splendid ceremony that followed the abdication. The new king, who received formal education in governance and served the country in various capacities, promised to continue his father's legacy and lead the nation with justice and integrity. The peaceful transition of power is seen as a testament to the stability and strength of the monarchy, and the day has been declared a national holiday. Citizens from across the country and leaders of foreign nations sent their congratulations to the new king, wishing him a prosperous and successful reign. King Carlos, now faces the challenge of modernizing the monarchy while maintaining the traditions that are dear to the hearts of the people. With the world watching, he takes his first steps as monarch, promising to honor the past and embrace the future.
The Lusitâ Kingdom of Abarc soon announced its transformation into a colonial Empire on the third of May. The young and ambitious Carlos I of Abarc, just 22 years old, crowned himself Emperor, marking the beginning of a new era for the people of Abarc. With territorial expansion, the Empire now encompasses four distinct colonies: Terracaval, known for its majestic horses and mountainous landscapes; Terra Verde, a jewel of biodiversity and natural resources; Ouro Real, whose mines promise wealth and prosperity; and Terra de Paz, a sanctuary of harmony and diplomatic refuge. Emperor Carlos I, in his inaugural speech, promised an era of exploration, culture and scientific advancement. “Our colonies represent the strength and diversity of our Empire. Together, we will achieve feats that will be remembered for generations,” he declared, under the watchful eye of a hopeful nation. The world watches with anticipation as the Lusitâ Colonial Empire of Abarc steps onto the global stage, ready to weave its legacy into history.
War of Humanity and Freedom (May 2004)
May 1
Plajevó’s newly elected Prime Minister, Иулій Купавнікӣ (Yuliy Kupavniki) , states in a press conference that, “The use of Slave labor in Terispol, one of the Kelbanian Empire’s many holdings, is unacceptable to the principles on which Plajevo was founded. We have started an initiative to help escaped slaves find better homes and lives in our own nation.” She went on to say how when she talked to some slaves about what they had experienced, she was absolutely overwhelmed. The Plajevi Saṅulu has decided that they will be hosting airlifts from the colony to get them out of there. These escaped slaves will be provided with free therapy sessions and new jobs will be made accordingly.
May 2
Meanwhile on the Second of May, the Axis of Freedom (consisting of Kelban Island, Franexia and Bealtiamor) declared war on the International League of Humanity (ILH) (consisting of Braisenburg, Tyra Melin ,Querteria, Plajevo and Youthenheim). The Kelbanian Prime Minister Rick Saris had decided to declare war because of the fact that Youthenheim is protecting the government of GROTKP, Kelbania's enemy. The soldiers of Kelbanian Colonial Empire soon entered Youthenheim and were marching to the Baranski City (The capital of Youthenheim). The Prime Minister had also decided that the Kelbanian Colonial Empire is not good enough. Because of that, the PM had officially declared the formation of the new Kelbanian Military Empire.
Within only a few hours of the AOF's declaration of war on the ILH, the Kelbanian Military Empire had already occupied 10 kilometers of USY's mainland and 4 kilometers of Silecia (colony of USY). As the KCE pushed into Youthenheim, Bealtiamor had entered Querteria which had 0 soldiers present at the border.
Franexia meanwhile had sent 4,000,000 men to attack Tyra Melin from the south (territories that are closest to Franexia). The Franexian Army captured a military unit of 200,000 people and had captured a small piece of land. It was estimated that around 500,000 Franexian soldiers died in the attack, but Franexia soon sent another 2,000,000 people to the front for reinforcements. For now, Franexia was occupying 4 small cities and 3 small villages, but the nation has repeatedly expressed it's commitment to capturing all of Tyra Melin.
Bealtiamor meanwhile sent armies that had successfully landed in Youthenheim at the southern part of the country. The nation had deployed 1,000,000 troops in total and now was marching through unprotected territories. The nation still had a whole armada ready to bombard from the sea any coastal city. The armada also prevents any ship from entering and from leaving USY water's. Bealtiamor had also fully taken and occupied the nation of Querteria, with all the armies that have been fighting there will now be stationed there to prevent any unwanted atacks.
May 3
On the third of May , the Youthenheim Military with the help of Tyra Melin, had pushed back the front. They had recapture 2 small cities from Kelbanian Colonial Empire but their triumph was not long. Bealtiamor soon landed their troops in southern Youthenheim capturing a small bit of land, forcing the two armies to split in two parts and send the second part to the Bealtiamor's front. Due to this, there now was a smaller army at the Kelbanian front which led to recapturing one of the small cities by Kelbanian Empire. But even with the United States of Youthenheim very close to defeat, it expressed it's sentiment to never give up even in the face of horrible odds. Plajevo soon sent aid to Youthenheim, sending 20,000 soldiers, 500 Planes, and 10 Space Trains to Youthenheim in order for them to gain back their holdings in Querteria. Braisenburg also denounced the Axis of Freedom ,calling it Imperialism in Disguise.

The Lethinian King is Dead!
Even with the nation of Lethinia being neutral in the war, it still suffered national shock when on May 4th at 2 am, then ruler of Lethinia King Philipe died in his sleep with many suspecting that he had died either from a stroke or lung cancer due to his addictive smoking habits. Many people were surprised and sad, especially his wife where she mourned in his room. The new Queen, Alisa paid tribute to her Father in an address to the Nation and the Colonies the next day. Politicians throughout the Kingdom paid tribute to the King, praising his long public service. The People of the rest of the world also offered their condolences and tributes, as did members of royal families, religious leaders and other public figures.
Offensives and Operations
One hour after the death of the King of Lethinia, at around 3:00am, Kelbanian Colonial Empire had sent four F-117 Nighthawk's in the intention of bombarding major cities in Youthenheim. The bombardments lasted around 4 hours (until 7:25am). The biggest bombardment was on the capital, Baranski City which had been destroyed around 40%. Estimates say around 100,000 civilians were killed and another 300,000 were injured in the cruel bombing of Baranski City. Besides the capital, the bombardments were also done to the cities of New Heim, Irucia and Salvendra, in which around 400,000 citizens were killed and 500,000 were injured in total.
Meanwhile on Bealtiamors front led by General Dave Pol, they had finally captured the main base of the Youthenheim's Army along 10,000 soldiers and 30 high ranking officers. Bealtiamor is now trying to get information from them about the plans of the ILH and where the government of GROTKP is hiding. Bealtiamor also had stopped it's attack for now and we will wait for the reinforcement to arrive, having already blocked the water trade routes. Bealtiamor have lost 1,000,000 soldiers in total, but is still winning in Youthenheim. It had also sent one naval fleet of 500 warships to Plajevo as planned.
Later that day, in a surprising move that has shaken the global geopolitical landscape, the nation of Abarc has announced its effective entry into the war alongside the Axis of Freedom, launching a large-scale offensive against the International League of Humanity. The target of the operation is the strategically important Brasienburg, a location of critical importance to the ongoing conflict. Abarc has mobilized a colossal army of 4 million soldiers, equally divided between the forces of Abarc and those of its ally, The Kelban Island (Kelbanian Colonial Empire). The landing strategy has been meticulously planned: 2 million Abarc soldiers will split in half, with one part landing on the southernmost island, where Brasienburg’s capital is located, and the other half attacking the most western point of the territory. Simultaneously, the forces of the Kelban Empire will follow an identical action plan. The landing operation will be launched from the colony of Terracaval, a territory under Abarc’s dominion, which will serve as a transition point for the troops before the assault. After a successful landing, a rigorous naval blockade is planned along the entire coast of Brasienburg, from both the south and the north, aiming to cut off any possibility of reinforcements or supplies for the enemy forces. This bold maneuver by Abarc is seen by many analysts as a potential turning point in the war, possibly altering the balance of power and defining the course of future events. The world watches closely as the situation unfolds.
Alisa shocks the World
On the same day as King Philippe's death, the new Queen Alisa had shocked the world by sending the First Man into Space and Crowning herself as Empress. Aboard the spacecraft Villa 1, Lethini cosmonaut Vlasta Sherd becomes the first human being to travel into space. During the flight, the 27-year-old test pilot and industrial technician also became the first man to orbit the planet, a feat accomplished by his space capsule in 89 minutes.

Braisenburg Prepares for War
Brasienburg, with a population of 77,540,687, is preparing for an unprecedented war effort. Of its population, 25,731,800 men and women, ages 19 to 45, were selected for the essential war effort. Of these, 17,744,583 were immediately directed to the battlefield. Those who underwent mandatory conscription more than 15 years ago will receive training to adapt to new weapons. The remainder of this population, made up of 7,987,217 inhabitants, was redirected to essential industries, such as agriculture, manufacturing, weapons and ammunition production, among others. Minors and the elderly were relocated by families to live together in shelters provided by the government. Most of these shelters are the homes of families whose heads were sent to war. The Brasienburgian government has been praised for its rapid mobilization for war. However, the need for accelerated production of weapons and ammunition is creating external debt. To solve this problem, the government created an emergency measure in which private properties uninhabited and unused during the war will be taken over by the government. The president, fearing a drop in public opinion, promised a high reward for conscripts who survived the war, with a pay of Đ98,638 per battle or per week of war. If soldiers die, the State guarantees that the pay will be passed on to their non-combatant family members. If both parents of a minor die in the line of duty, a benefit of Đ32,879 will be passed on monthly to the young Brasienburgian's new guardian. School spaces are being used as bomb shelters and in the future will be used as orphanages for young people who no longer have any legally responsible relatives alive. The organization is being carried out digitally, where each citizen is receiving their own code in an extremely rigid system of organization, which is being promulgated through a hidden hyperserver within Brasilenburgian territory.
Due to the history of peaceful conflict resolution, Brasienburg was only able to send around 3 million units to the war front, due to the lack of equipment. Two million were sent to the south to respond to the enemy attack, where all the forces of the Brasienburgian Army will be focused to force a break in the maritime blockade created by Abarc. For this, 4 Nimitz Class aircraft carriers are being used, carrying AS365K Pantera helicopters, to identify submarines, and 12 Arleigh Burke Class destroyers, being protected by more than 144 Inhaúma Class corvettes. To the east, Brasienburg has sent 1 million units to S. A. (Silva Areas), where he hopes to delay the enemy using guerrilla tactics within the jungle.
Youthenheim Situation
Meanwhile, the worst happened for Youthenheim. It's colonies had decided to surender to the Axis of Freedom. The reason of this is the fact of Youthenheim losing the war and that they don't want to lose any more of their population. Youthenheim is left with only 500,000 soldiers, but it is still fighting. The Prime Minister of the Kelbanian Empire, who is the mastermind behind the AOF, has been apprehended by forces from the ILH, currently keeping him in an undisclosed location. Plajevó and it’s colonies officially declared war on the AF and any nation who fights against humanity and the common good. The AOF further took a hit when Franexia's President decided to change sides, making an agreement with the ILH. Franexia will pay reparations to Tyra Melin and return them the land occupied. Franexia will join the war to defeat the Prime Minister's regime. This decision was made because of the execution of the president's brother, made by The Prime Minister because of an disagreement.
Bealtian Bombardment
Later that day, the Admiral of the Bealtian Fleet had ordered the bombardment of the coastal cities of Plajevo. The reason of this attack was to force the Plajevis to hand over the Prime Minister Rick Saris back to Kelbanian Empire. In the first hour, the bombardment had already killed around 100,000 people and had destroyed 40% of the affected cities.
Plajevo has only one chance to hand over the Prime Minister Rick Saris or else we will destroy the cities and we will begun the atack of the Armies. For now You are cut from international waters."- Said Emperor Fredric Runthston the 3rd in a TV broadcast.
Abarc's Offensive
In a series of tactical moves, Abarc's forces launched their first offensives against Brasienburg, marking a turning point in the prolonged conflict. The operations, although limited in scale, demonstrated the effectiveness and determination of Abarc's jungle warfare troops.
First Offensive: Peninsula Conquest
On the westernmost front of Brasienburg, Abarc advanced southeast, capturing a strategic peninsula and securing strategic control over the southern coast of the continent. This victory allows a significant foothold for future operations in the region.
Second Offensive: Advance on the Capital Island
To the south of the island that houses the capital of Brasienburg, Abarc's forces carried out an offensive directed northwest, conquering several kilometers of coast. This strategic advance puts Abarc's troops in an advantageous position to pressure the capital.
Third Offensive: Towards the Capital
The last offensive, also originating in the south of the island, aimed to approach the capital following the coast. The maneuver aims to encircle the city and cut its supply lines, preparing the ground for a possible siege.
Casualties and Resistance
Abarc's battalions, facing the guerrilla tactics employed by Brasienburg, suffered approximately a thousand casualties. On the other hand, Brasienburg's forces suffered significant losses, with about 12,000 soldiers lost in the offensives. The operations highlight Abarc's ability to conduct complex operations in challenging terrains, despite the fierce resistance and guerrilla tactics of Brasienburg. The world watches closely as the situation continues to develop.
Battle of Czovitsa Ridge
Meanwhile, the battle of Czovitsa Ridge was taking place. The battle started at 2:00 PM between Franexia(ILH), GROTKP(ILH), Plajevó(ILH), Tyra Melin(ILH), Abarc(AF), and Kelban Island(AF). With the death toll from each side being 9,476 on the ILH side and 13,767 on the AF side. This resulted in an ILH victory, as we forced AF troops back by nearly 52 kilometers and created an opening. We have now taken the interior of the country, and have pushed back AF forces from the country and the surrounding regions. Around 31,730 soldiers from the AF have mutinied due to poor conditions, and are now siding with the ILH. Most have been given positions in Youthenheim’s Independence Militia. Those who have not have been taken in by Tyra Melin and Myself. This marks a major turning point in the war.
