The Luepolan War (Vierz: Lüpolenkrieg), known in Luepola and Vorochia as the Liberation War (Luepolan: Oslobodnočni rát; Vorochian: Визвольна війна; Romanized: Vyzvol'na vijna), was a war from 1979 to 1985 in Luepola. The conflict was fought between the Vierz Empire and Luepolan revolutionaries who had deposed the government of the State of Luepola and sought to expel Vierz forces from the country. The pro-Vierz Vorochian government was also overthrown in the July 5 Coup d'Etat, prompting Vorochia to also be targeted by the Vierz invasion initially planned for solely Luepola.

The war was preceded by the March Uprising, in which mass protests and riots led to the ousting of the pro-Vierz Luepolan leadership by sympathetic military officers and members of the Luepolan legislature. The decision to separate from the Vierz Empire's sphere of influence prompted the beginning of the war itself.

Though the war encompassed Vorochia in addition to Luepola, international coverage focused primarily on the fighting in Luepola, lending to the conflict's most commonly used name outside of Luepola and Vorochia. The Luepolan War remains the deadliest and most destructive war fought in Patyria since the Great War.
