The '''Elkjop War''' was an armed conflict between [[Zamastan]] and the [[Gladysynthia|Empire of Gladysynthia]] from July 6th, 1911 to May 20th, 1912 (318 days), named for [[Elkjop Bay]] - the body of water where much of the primary naval fighting took place. Hostilities began in the aftermath of the sinking of the Zamastanian passenger liner, the [[Sinking of the ZCLV Marian Annat|ZCLV Marian Annat]] as it sailed through the [[Strait of Vulkaria]], leading to Zamastanian intervention in the Vulkarian War of Independence. The war led to emergence of Zamastanian predominance in the North-[[Catica]]/South [[Hespia]] region, and resulted in Zamastan's acquisition of Gladysynthia's possessions in the [[Holish Islands]].

The war, despite the Zamastanian victory and boost in national pride, turned into negative opinion following [[President of Zamastan|President]] [[Jean Levasseur]]'s attempt to annex the nation.


The main issue of the conflict was [[Vulkaria]]n independence. Revolts had been occurring for some years in Vulkaria against Gladysynthian rule. Zamastan later backed these revolts upon entering the Elkjop War. Following the conflict, Zamastan occupied Vulkaria from 1912-1921 to oversee reconstruction, modernization, and a stable peace process. Many experts see the war as a stepping stone for the long history of Zamastanian involvement in Vulkaria.
