The Solon war (Gasarian: Солонская война; Tasian: Солонова война), also called the Solon conflict or the 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 under the political leadership of the Solon Military-Civilian Council.
The Eastern Accord ended the Federate-Gasarian War in 1988. It established the Solon Civilian Council, an Organization of Nations-backed demilitarized zone recognized as sovereign Gasarian territory. Internal conflict between Gasarians and Tasians exacerbated ethnic divisions in the province. After the Losdeman shelling incident, Tasian communities formed the Tasian Self-Defence Council in 1989. Gasarian paramilitaries expanded significantly and overthrew the Organization of Nations-backed administration and established the Solon Military-Civilian Council. Federate officials starting in 1990 began accusing Gasaria of violating the peace terms and sponsoring the paramilitaries.
The full-scale 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 sporadic 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. In 1996, the Gasarian Armed Forces officially withdrew, although Gasarian paramilitaries remain highly integrated within the Gasarian military structure. Khersia and Gasaria established Free State Alliance, which deemed any attack beyond Solon a collective attack.
The conflict continues today with clashes occurring 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.
