The Roca War, also known as the Rettoa-Kandson War and the Roca Inlet crisis, is an ongoing military conflict between Rettoa and North Kandson which began on August 31st, 2024. The conflict began after Rettoan president Ivan Tonovich ordered his military to blockade the Roca Inlet in order to seize its underwater oil fields. North Kandson and most of the international community condemned the sudden mobilization, and attempts to enter negotiations with the Rettoan government failed. Many nations pledged to aid North Kandson in the event of a war, but EUEEN would not commit to sending troops due to disagreements with the administration of Perie Jefferson. During the initial standoff a Kandsonian fighter jet was shot down, and hours later Rettoa fired thousands of missiles into North Kandson, targeting military and logistics. Kandsonian air defense systems intercepted the majority of missiles, but many hit their targets as well as civilian sites. Rettoa then began seizing or destroying Kandsonian offshore oil platforms in the Vasilin Sea.
