The Asianna and the Pacific Campaign (15 March 1935 - 2 September 1945) was the theater of the Second Europan War that was fought in the Pacificanna Islands and in Central, East, and Southeast Asianna. It was geographically the largest theater of the war, including the vast Pacificanna Ocean theater, the Central Asianna theater, the Southeast Asianna theater, the Third Joyonghean-Quenminese War, and the Teulabian Campaign.
The prelude to the campaign was the rampant and increasing aggression of the Empire of Quenmin throughout the 1920s and 1930s. These increasing acts of aggression led to Quenmin being the most powerful nation in Asianna. The Second Quenminese-Lorican War erupted in 12 April 1929 with Quenmin invading Southern Lorica. The Annexation of Central Asianna led to the former Lucis Colony of Indiae being subjected under Quenminese rule. Quenmin continued to set its eyes on subjecting the entirety of the Lorican countryside within a matter of months. However, prevailing resistance continued to delay the Quenminese timetable. In 1933, the Lorican region of Montauluçon was subjected, allowing the Quenminese to open its eyes on subjecting Dae Joyong. In 1935, Quenmin invaded West Guinea with the intention of occupying the Territory of the Guinea Islands, which was under the jurisdiction of the Zanarkian Government, prompting the Lucis Commonwealth to declare war on Quenmin. In 7 December 1935, the Imperial Quenminese Navy and Imperial Quenminese Air Force attacked the Concordian Naval Base at Diamond Harbour, turning the Second Europan War into a full-blown total war. By 1936, Quenmin completes its conquest of Afghania, opening an opportunity for the Quenminese to invade the Middle East.
The Third Joyonghean-Quenminese War between the Empire of Quenmin and Dae Joyong began on 7 July 1937 with the IQA easily defeating the Royal Joyonghean Army. Despite the mounting tenacity of the Quenminese, the Joyongheans managed to slow the Quenminese invasion by many months until the Fall of Yeolcheon in April 1940. By that time, Joyonghea had sided with the Allies. Quenmin later set its eyes on invading Zanarkand and Nihhon-koku. The Guinea Campaign saw the first failure of the Quenminese Army to place itself in a dominant position in Pacificanna. The Imperial loss at the Battle of the Zanarkian Sea ended Quenmin's plan of invading Zanarkand. Later, the Battle of Nihhon-koku began on 10 June 1940. It marked the maximum extent of Quenmin's hold in the Pacificanna. Overstretched, the Imperial attempt to subject the country failed and marked the turning point in the theater. Thus, the Island Hopping Campaign began with the Invasion of Betio Island, marking the first Allied victory in Quenminese territory. In Joyonghea, Lucis Commonwealth forces landed on Samcheok, beginning the turning point of the war in the Joyonghean Peninsula. By 1942, Imperial Forces from the Middle East have begun to retreat eastward and into Afghania.
In 1943, the battles at Nepali and Bhutania in Central Asianna, Chuncheon in Joyonghea, Bergeteaux in Teulabia, and the Barclay Atoll sealed the Imperial forces fate. From that point, Imperial forces have begun to fight a losing war, culminated in 1945 with the Hyesong Gap in Joyonghea, the Central Highlands Campaign and the Fall of Cao Khoat in Quenmin. The insurmountable losses prompted Quenmin to declare its surrender on 15 August 1945. The formal surrender of Quenmin ceremony took place aboard the battleship HMS King Georgius III in the Sea of Quenmin on 2 September 1945.
After the war, Quenmin lost all rights and titles to its former possessions in Asianna and the Pacificanna, and its sovereignty was limited to the four main home islands and other minor islands as determined by the Allies. Quenmin's Emperor relinquished much of his authority and his divine status through the Directive in order to pave the way for extensive cultural and political reforms. Hiệp Mạng abdicated and Quenmin was administered by the United Kingdom under the Federation of Quen Minh, which served as a transitional government to the Royal Technocratic Realm of Quenmin.
