The Nelborne Front was a theatre of war during the First World War. It began when the Nelbec Empire attacked Lormotia and invaded New Svealand in August 1914. Allied to the German Empire, the Nelbec Empire was at war with the Allied powers and sought to strengthen the Central powers' position in the Nelborne against the British Empire. By winter, Nelbec advances had largely stalled as both sides dug in and established elaborate trench networks, whose position would change little until 1918.

Between 1915 to 1917 the Nelbec Empire launched several additional. offensives. Lormot defences within the Yerjtan mountains bottlenecked Nelbec advances who were unprepared for mountain warfare, resulting in unprecedented casualties. Svealandic defences suffered under initial Nelbec attacks but held the line with Allied support, with the 1916 Battle of Langadalr being a major turning point.
