The South Ecros War (Eleutherian: Νότιος έκρος πόλεμος, Illyrian Iberic: Geuro Su Ecros, Pavulturilori: războiul sud-ecros, Hebrew: מלחמת דרום אקרוס) was a major armed conflict that occurred in southern Ecros from 1945 to 1948 fought mainly between the communist alliance of the Red Hand, Terranihil, and New Illyricum against Eleutherios, Jackson, and the Kingdom of Pavulturilor.
The Eleutherian Civil War began in 1945 when Eleutherian communists attempted to overthrow the Eleutherian government with material support from Terranihil, at the time governed by the Communist Party of Terranihil. The Terranilian Air Force attacked Eleutherian forces and factories, and then Terranihil launched a land invasion of Eleutherios in 1945. The communist forces made significant progress over the course of several months.
Jackson provided Eleutherios with weapons and material goods, which led to Terranihil beginning a blockade on the Jack River to limit this flow of supplies. Air battles over the Andaluzian Sea ensued between Jackson and the allied forces of Terranihil and New Illyricum. Pavulturilor invaded Alaia after the instatement of the blockade in December 1945, and soon conflict erupted across the New Illyrian - Pavulturilori border, leading to an eventual stalemate.
Though the communist forces in Eleutherios had captured much of the nation, Terranihil faced a four front war with few allies. The advancing Pavulturilor army and the threat of a Jackian land invasion pressured Terranihil to agree to an armistice despite its unfavorable provisions.
Background
Terranihil
In 1936 communist officers began to form plots against the liberal democrat government culminating in the Ashura Revolution in March 1937, led by communist Enkart Vaslast and republican Karam Šaıa. Several days later Terranilian president Amen Tǎzma fled the country to Quebecshire after the arrest of Prime Minister Deplerza by military forces in Minaltar.
Revolutionary forces formed the Revolutionary Command Committee which took command of the nation, and after Šaıa declared himself interim president tensions arose between the republican and communist delegates who formed the Command Committee. He was forced to resign just twenty-four days later, and Valast took power as interim president, and communist Amelius Fakraš was elected Prime Minister. Valast then purged republican influence and arrested Šaıa, before officially winning presidency during the 1938 Terranilian presidential election.
Eleutherios
Following the communist uprisings in neighboring Terranhil, communist forces in Eleutherios, centered around the city of Marathon and known as the Red Hand, felt empowered to rise up in 1944 against the federalist government. Led by Zaharias V the group took power in Marathon which led to large scale fighting near the city. Terranihilian aid helped propel communist victories, and an eventual capture of Erimos after several months of fighting in December 1944.
With new aid coming from Jackson, Eleutherian troops led a counter-offensive under the command of General Dimitrios II driving communist forces away from Corinth back to the outskirts of Erimos. With the line breaking, Zaharias V called on Terranihil and New Illyricum to officially join the war in order to aid the communist cause, and in February 1945 Terranihilian troops advanced across the border into Eleutherios.
Course of War
Terranilian invasion of Eleutherios
Capturing of Oikos
Jack River blockade
On December 5th, 1945, the Terranihillian navy blocked a supplies ship heading towards Eleutherios coming from the Jack River. Because of this, Jackson officially declared war on Terranihil the next day. Very soon after this, the Jackian Navy successfully unblocked the Jack River and started their attacks on Terranihil's port cities. With the mounting pressure of 2 front-lines, and the Jackian Navy at their doorstep, Terranihil started losing territory and gains.
Pavulturilori intervention
In reaction to the blockade of the Jack River that was enacted on 5 of December 1945 by the Terranihilian navy, on 7 of December, 1945, Pavulturilor launched an invasion of the Alaia region after a decleration of war, while at first little to no Terranihilian resistence was met, eventually the Alaia front turned into a bloody stalemate until the end of the war.
Călăneasan Offensive
In late January, 1945, New Illyrian commander Adrianus Dophus met with Terranihillian generals to discuss an offensive into Pavulturilor in order to take pressure off of Alaia. The commanders agreed to a large offensive into Călăneasa, the offensive would utilize pincer attacks from Nyapthus and (----) with the main assault force coming from Italus. On February 5th the Călăneasan Offensive opened with the New Illyrian Airforce]] launching a foray northeastward from Janusovič and bombing large swaths of Călăneasa, along with Terranihillian forces quickly advancing southeastward towards (---). The Pavulturilori military was quick to respond, and by February 10th the offensive began to become bogged down by stiff resistance and supply problems.
Ceasefire
Armistice provisions
- Eleutherios will return to pre-war borders.
- Jackson will receive full control and authority over the Jack River and Lake Manal indefinitely.
- Pavulturilor will receive a portion of land equal to 100,000 km² in the south of Alaia.
Aftermath
Alaia Wars
Though Terranihil recognized its new border with Pavulturilor when it accepted the armistice, the border has been a source of multiple conflicts since the war. Terranihil and Pavulturilor never formed a peace treaty. Following the Progressive Revolution, the National Progressive Party has sought to recapture southern Alaia.
Foreign reactions
At the start of the war the Kingdom of Kwazulu announced that it will diplomatically support Pavulturilor, as a response the Leftist International Ciskei announced their support for the Commintern. The decades long tension, followed by border clashes reached it's highest point and Ciskei declared war on Kwazulu on 31 December 1945, starting the Kei River War, a seperate war. Ciskeian leaders discussed the option of sending troops abroad to help the Commintern, however the capabilities of its armed forces were limited and due to distance the option was dismissed.
