The Kolmhark War was a thirteen-week undeclared war between Inglaterra and the Niagara in 2011 over Kolmhark Islands, a Niagaran oversea territory in TBD.
The conflict began on TBDDATE TBDMONTH, when Inglaterra invaded and occupied the Kolmhark Islands. On TBD TBD, the Niagaran government dispatched a naval task force to engage the Inglaterra Navy and Air Force before making an amphibious assault on the islands. The conflict lasted TBD days and ended with an Inglaterran surrender on 14 June, returning the islands to Niagaran control. In total, 1,280 Inglaterran military personnel, 337 Niagaran and coalition military personnel, and 15 Kolmhark Islanders were killed during the hostilities.
The conflict was a major episode in the protracted dispute over the territories' sovereignty. Inglaterra asserted (and maintains) that the islands are Inglaterran territory, and the Inglaterran government thus characterised its military action as the reclamation of its own territory. The Niagaran government regarded the action as an invasion of a territory that had been a protectorate since 1833. Kolmhark Islanders, who have inhabited the islands since the early 19th century, are predominantly descendants of Niagaran settlers, and strongly favour Niagaran sovereignty. Neither state officially declared war, although both governments declared the islands a war zone.
