The Drometian War was a major armed conflict and civil war between the Kingdom of Drometia, West Drometia and East Drometia which was fought from 1968 until 1975. Prior to the start of the war multiple factors such as historical ethnic tensions between Afthonian-Drometians and Maroudian-Drometians, a period of economic recession alongside the 1964 Drometian earthquake and the humanitarian crisis that followed and the 1968 Maroudian revolution are considered as significant contributing factors to the conflict. Modern day historians consider 21 March 1968 as the official start of the conflict when anti-monarchist elements within both the civilian population and military of Drometia attempted to overthrow the Drometian monarchy and proclaimed the creation of <INSERT WEST DROMETIA FORMAL NAME> commonly referred to as West Drometia with major battles reported almost immediately in the region near Drometia's capital city. Two days later the Afthonian-Drometian community proclaimed the establishment of the Republic of Drometia, commonly referred to as East Drometia, on the island's eastern region as a separate entity from West Drometia. In response the revolutionary government of West Drometia proclaimed the territories controlled by East Drometia as a breakaway province. This resulted in a three-way conflict between the three major factions. West Drometia was supported by Maroudia whereas East Drometia was supported by Afthonia.
