The 2007 Belkan War was a conflict in Northern Lorecia waged by coaltion forces seven different nations in defense of the nations of Arstoska and Plätteisen Adler.

Background

Following the end of the Great Astyrian War, both Caledonia and Arstotska expanded their territories at the expense of Belka. In 1972, Caledonia released Platteisen Adler from direct control, allowing it self-rule - albeit heavily influenced by Caledonia.

In 2006, massive protests against the Adlerite government's ties to Caledonia broke out throughout Platteissen Adler, with Adlerites calling for greater independence and autonomy from Caledonian affairs. Many in the majority-Belkan southeastern part of the nation became especially engaged in protests, and a growing movement in that area began clamoring for reunification with Belka.

Hostilities Commence

Invasion of Platteissen Adler

Taking advantage of the growing instability in Platteissen Adler, the Belkan Armed Forces launched a massive surprise attack against the small nation, rapidly overwhelming the Adlerite army. The Belkan military was assisted heavily in this drive by Belkan nationalist 5th columnists within Platteissen Adler, who launched attacks against military checkpoints and provided information to the advancing Belkan Army.
