The '''Anglian War''' is an ongoing conflict on [[Eurth]]. In April 2021 the Kingdom of [[Great Anglia]] initiated the conflict with the Battle of Broerland by moving its armed forces across the bridges spanning the gap between Great Anglia and [[Lysia]].<ref>[https://www.europans.com/topic/6118-europan-news-network/ Tarentum, Social Democratic Federation] (10 April 2021)</ref> The conflict is motivated by Anglian imperialism.{{citation needed}} The international community has condemned the Anglian aggression.<ref>[https://www.europans.com/topic/6118-europan-news-network/?do=findComment&comment=40017023 Foreign and Imperial Office, Godstone, Anglia] (12 May 2021)</ref>
 
__TOC__
 
== Background ==
 
The reasons that led to this conflict were many years in the making. In [[Great Anglia]], the ruling monarch King Creighton I was a proponent of expansionist annexation of the rich [[Occident|Occidental]] neighbouring states. Evenly inspired and intimidated by the country of [[Adaptus]], another militaristic neighbours, the Creighton directed the military to target other countries which would be less likely to retaliate. This included [[Lysia]] and [[Suverina]]. Another factor in this decision was the pacifist political stance of these countries, viewed by the Anglians as weak and negligent.
 
Across the [[Raga Sea]], over in [[Amutia]], a long-running dispute of the exact border location between [[Suverina]] and [[Qubdi]] had festered for many years. The lands in question had been in dispute ever since 1961, when Suverina annexed the non-declared area without official negotiation between the two states. Tensions increased in early 2021 when Qubdi unilaterally pressed on with its own version of the border claim.<ref>[https://www.europans.com/topic/6118-europan-news-network/?do=findComment&comment=40016856 Anglian Military Officials Invited to Suverina] (22 April 2021)</ref>
