The Second War in Vulkaria was an armed conflict in the nation of Vulkaria that started in the late summer of 1999 and lasted until early 2005. The war involved Coalition of Crown Albatross forces led by Zamastan and consisting of Cadairian, Emmirian, Rio Palitan, Austrolisian and Quetanan forces battling numerous terror and insurgent networks, including the revitalized Malvarian Liberation Front, all backed by Malvare, along with mercenaries supplied by Ossinia and Martin Saint-Yves' regime. Following the events of the First War in Vulkaria and the sporadic protests and violence that persisted throughout the next decade, a government policy regarding capitalist and global economics installed in 1999 led to a revitalization of the M.L.F. and many other embattled groups wanting to take over power from the federal government in order to install a socialist regime. A civil war erupted in 2000 once again, and the nation was embroiled with global interests once again being threatened in the form of trade along the Vulkarian Pass canal route, as well as the threat of terror attacks being experienced by many of the nations involved in the coalition efforts.

After attempts at a diplomatic solution failed, the Coalition of Crown Albatross intervened, justifying the campaign in Kosovo as a "humanitarian war". President Cassious Castovia sent an international coalition into Vulkaria in 1999. By 2005, investigations had recovered the remains of tens of thousands of victims of all ethnicities, as well as that there had been "a systematic campaign of terror, including murders, rapes, arsons and severe maltreatments by terrorist and insurgent organizations". The war ended in 2005 with the surrender of rebel forces and a signed treaty by the Federal forces and Coalition observers to allow small territorial governance by M.L.F. and V.N.A. forces.

The war was staggering in terms of the death toll, with over 2.3 million people killed, over half of them citizens. Vulkaria lost over 103,000 soldiers. The Coalition forces lost a total of 7,153 troops, including 3,246 from Zamastan, 972 from Cadair, 2,502 from Emmiria, 394 from Austrolis, 30 from Rio Palito, and 9 from Quetana.
