The Continuation War (Ravkan: Продовження війни, tr. Prodovzhennya vijny); Drazhinskiyan: Працяг вайны, tr. Pratsyag vajny) was an armed conflict fought between Ravka and Drazhinskiya between March 2021 and September 2022. The war's immediate cause lays in the aftermath of the the Treaty of Nice imposed on Drazhinskiya following the 2015 Midsummer War, during which Ravkan and Acrean forces occupied the majority of the border region of Tsernova; as part of the terms of the treaty, Drazhinskiya ceded most of Tsernova to Ravka. Though both Drazhinskiya and Ravka maintain longstanding claims Tsernova, largely on ethnopolitical grounds in spite of the historical ethnolinguistic diversity of the region, contention over Tsernova is widely regarded as an extension of the wider political and ideological enmity between the two. After its defeat in 2015, Drazhinskiya entered a period of political upheaval which saw the ruling Free Assembly coalition replaced by the popular National Union Conference. Although the NUC rose to power on a wave of support for its revanchist ideology, the possibility of another conflict in the near future was not seriously raised until tensions in the region sharply rose following the passage of the 2020 Zastavna Conventions. The Conventions, signed in the northern Tsernovan town of Zastavna outside of Makhovka, presented the formal terms, means, and timeline for officially incorporating various regions of Tsernova into Ravka.
Prior to the outbreak of the conflict, aggressive rhetoric and posturing led to a gradual rise in tensions between Drazhinskiya and its eastern neighbours.
