The 2019–2020 Morovan crisis was a state of heightened military tensions and conflict between Morova and a coalition of various nations which was primarily concentrated in the Glaceis Ocean, but also spread to all three continents. Beginning in August 2021 with the overthrow of Supreme Leader Dmitri Rameus by Marshal Fyodor Ivanovich, a civil war eventually occurred in Morova in September and October 2021 and caused the Terraconserva Council of Nations to pass TCN Resolutions 001 and 003 against Morova.

Following a seizure of power by Admiral Alyosha Karamazov, Morova began to antagonize several nations, including members of the International Coalition for Morova (INTCOMOR) and Creeperopolis.

Commemoration

On 1 February 2020, the Creeperian Armed Forces established the Morovan Campaign Medal (Medalla de la'Campaña Morobeño, MCM), a military medal awarded to soldiers and officers who participated in the Armas Blockade. Following the occurrence of the Battle of the Glaceis Ocean in late-March 2020, the award was split into three grades: A Grade which was awarded for service in the Armas Blockade, G Grade which was awarded for service in the Battle of the Glaceis Ocean, and A–G grade which was awarded for participation in both engagements. A total of 20,593 soldiers were awarded the medal and its motto was Triunfar contra'l Comunismo ("Triumph over Communism").

On 31 March 2021, the one year anniversary of the Battle of the Glaceis Ocean, the Creeperian Navy commissioned the BIC DA 109 (Pontífice) submarine into service. The submarine was one of the six Typhoon-class submarines captured during the battle and the only one captured by the Creeperian Navy. Originally named the MAS Patriarch, the submarine was repaired by the Creeperian Navy and paraded as a war trophy during a naval "show of force" in Sonsonate.
