The Dellish Revolution or Delland Crisis was a series of conflicts and revolutions initially against the government of the Valduvian Empire and the autocratic rule of Emperor Kārlis III and Alof V which resulted in the independence of the Republic of Delland and the subsequent Neevan Crisis and joint Estmerish-Weranian intervention into Delland in July 1920. The initial revolutionary phase lasted from September 1919 to December 1919 with the second phase lasting from December 1919 until January 1921 during which there were several attempts at establishing a council republic in Alsland and an Estmerish-Weranian occupation which lasted until the 1920 Rahu agreement ensuring Dellish neutrality and the introduction of the 1920 Dellish Constitution.

The revolution was sparked as a result of the ongoing Airdale War between the Valduvian Empire and the Kingdom of Estmere which saw heavy casualties particularly amongst Dellish soldiers from the semi-autonomous federated state of Delland and Martiland. Prior to the war Delland was suffering from the consequences of the Great Collapse which severely effected Delland and the rest of the empire. In August 1919, Emperor Kārlis III dissolved the Dellish Folkssenaat after it symbolically condemned the war, new parliamentary elections were scheduled to be held after the conclusion of hostilities although there was widespread suspicion that the Senate would never be reconvened sparking protests beginning in September organised by the Dellish People's Party (DFP) and their allies. The protests worsened after the 1919 Jenadambja riots which began a crackdown by Valduvian military authorities who declared martial law in the region. In response to the declaration Nationalist parties formed makeshift paramilitaries and cooperated with the Socialist Worker's Party (SAP/SSP) to declare a simultaneous general strike which began in October. Fighting began between nationalists protecting the strikers and the Valduvian army which worsened as the month progressed. On 14 October, King Alof V of Delland abdicated and fled to try and quell the worsening violence. In response the Folkssenaat which had reconvened in Herne abolished the Dellish monarchy.

On 18 October the Folkssenaat passed a universal declaration of independence and former Valduvian general Siemen Hartmann was subsequently appointed as acting President of the newly established Republic of Delland.
