The Solon war or war in Solon is an ongoing protracted armed conflict between Gasaria and paramilitaries against the Federate Union in Solon, internationally recognized as demilitarized sovereign Gasarian territory. Federate Union forces control a significant portion of Solon's northern territory, while Gasarian-backed paramilitaries occupy the rest.
The Eastern Accord ended the Federate-Gasarian War in 1988. Although its terms specified the demilitarization of the Solon province, Federate officials starting in 1991 began accusing Gasaria of violating the peace terms and sponsoring paramilitaries in the area. The war started when the Federal Military Force began a lightning offensive into Solon in 1994, occupying two-thirds of the province from the north and beseiging the provincial capital Ostov, as well as clashing with Gasarian border forces along the entire border. The Gasarian Armed Forces responded by counter-attacking towards the occupied territories and creating swift preparations against a full-scale invasion. The Organization of Nations in an emergency meeting demanded full Federate and Gasarian withdrawal from Solon. The conflict continued into the winter, with spordadic clashes across the border. Khersia and Novdon pursued a diplomatic solution, eventually negotiating the Federate Union and Gasaria to agree to the Solon Terms, which limited the zone of conflict to Solon. Khersia, Novdon, and Gasaria established Free State Alliance, which deemed any attack beyond Solon a collective attack.
The conflict continues today with clashses occuring consistently. The Federate Union and Gasaria have maintained formal diplomatic ties but continue to dispute the status of Solon and condemn each others actions in the conflict. The two countries held peace summits in 2002, 2019, and 2023, although no permanent ceasefire or peace treaty has been signed.
