The '''Sequoyan Civil War''' was a civil conflict in [[Sequoyah]] between military forces loyal to President [[William Adama]] and dissident forces loyal to [[Edward Calhoun]], the President-elect of Sequoyah. The civil war erupted as a result of Adama's [[Executive Order 10455 (Sequoyah)|Executive Order 10455]] and the arrest of Calhoun.
+
The '''Sequoyan Civil War''' ([[Sequoyan language|Sequoyan]]: ᏍᏏᏉᏯ ᎭᏫᎾᏗᏢ ᏓᏄᏩ; transliterated: ''Ssiquoya Hawinaditlv Danuwa'') was an armed conflict in [[Sequoyah]] from November 2020 to February 2021. The civil war was fought between the Sequoyan military government led by interim President Admiral [[Diwali Wesa]] and rebel military factions supporting deposed President-Elect [[Unaduti Atagulkalu]]. Beginning in December 2020, the [[Cooperation and Development Coalition]] (CODECO) launched a [[CODECO military intervention in Sequoyah|military intervention]] on behalf of the military rebels.
