The Scandinavian Campaign or the Zemurian Theatre was a military theatre of operations during the Second Europan War encompassing the majority of Scandinavian countries of the Erebonian Empire, Calvard Republic, Ruzhite Empire, Jutland-Gimli, Remiferia, Liberl Kingdom, Alteria, Aurucolia, Autocratic East Europan Imperial Alliance, Lorican Federation, and the Crossbell State.
The war erupted in the continent when the Calvard Republic assaulted and spearheaded the Crossbell State, which had been under Erebonian occupation for 127 years. The Liberlian Armies on the other hand invaded Erebonia and Calvard from the south, intent on retrieving South Erebonia and the Montargis Region of Calvard. This attack caught the Erebonians by surprise and were driven to retreat further to Central Erebonia. North Ambria was then invaded by the Calvardians from Crossbell and initiated an invasion of Alteria. Aurucolia on the other hand attacked Calvard from the Petain Region, which was further east of Calvard. The Russite forces on the other hand invaded the small Lucis Crown Colony of Jutland-Gimli but the Lucian-Jutlandish Forces in Zemuria were prepared for the impending invasion by the Russites and that the Russites could not advance past the small colony and causing the Russite attacks to spill to Aurucolia, prompting the Aurucolians to declare war on Rus.
The Erebonian Empire was supported by the Lucis Commonwealth. Troops from the United Kingdom, along with troops from Gallia-Bruhl, Rubrum, Zanarkand, New Akiba, and Concordia intervened in the conflict in order to support Erebonia, Alteria and the Lucian crown colony of Jutland-Gimli. The Erebonians and Alterians could not survive long enough without Commonwealth support and that the negotiation between the three governments were agreed. The Commonwealth gave its support to the Erebonian Empire and Alteria, owing to the fact that Alteria had been a former Lucian Colony and Parts of Erebonia belonged to the Lucis Empire. These nations formed the Allied Nations in Zemuria.
Supplied by the UK and Gallia, the Allies managed to retake North Ambria as well as taking back South Erebonia from the Liberlians and the Crossbell region from the Calvardians. This stalemate would last throughout the war. The fighting in the continent ended upon the Treaty of Crossbell, which declared the independence of the Crossbell region of Erebonia, forming the Crossbell State and declared it as a cease-fire zone.
