The Battle of Sejpedek was a battle of the Great War that took place in the area around the key Granzerian port of Sejpedek, the largest port in the nation, it began with an Allied naval invasion of Sejpedek and ended with the destruction of the 3rd Guards Tank Army and the capture of most of Southwest Granzery. The operation began as an Allied attempt to outflank Granzerian forces around the towns of Csepreg and Vép and secure the vital port of Sejpedek.

At the conclusion of the Battle in December of 1946, Granzerian forces in the West had been largely exhausted and Vierz forces in the East of Granzery had begun Operation TBA, allowing Allied forces to push through Granzery rapidly, by early February of 1947, Vierz forces had begun the Siege of Husegesvar and Allied forces had captured the city of Karpath, less than 90 kilometres from the besieged capital. By mid February the Granzerian government had surrendered unconditionally.
