  • The South Ecros War was a major armed conflict that occurred in southern Ecros from 1945 to 1948 fought mainly between Terranihil and Eleutherian communist revolutionaries against the Eleutherian republic, Jackson Empire, the Kingdom of Pavultorilor, and Bladium.

    The Eleutherian Civil War began on 194- 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 Empire provided Eleutherios with weapons. Terranihil began a blockade of the Jack River to prevent Jacksonian supplies from reaching Eleutherios. This led to naval and air battles in the Andaluzian Sea, and the Jacksonian declaration of war against Terranihil. Then Pavultorilor and Bladium both invaded Terranihil Pavultorilor was able to capture several hundred kilometers of land to its north, while the Bladian-Terranilian front became a stalemate.

    Though the communist forces in Eleutherios had captured much of the nation, Terranihil faced a four front war with few allies. The advancing Pavultorilori army and the threat of a Jacksonian land invasion pressured Terranihil to agree to an armistice despite its unfavorable provisions.

    Background

    Terranilian invasion of Eleutherios

    Capturing of Oikos

    Pavultorilori and Bladian invasions

    Jack River blockade

    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.
    •  Bladium will gain international recognition among all participating parties, with the current border being made official.

    Consequences

    Though Terranihil recognized its new border with Pavultorilor when it accepted the armistice, the border has been a source of multiple conflicts since the war. Terranihil and Pavultorilor never formed a peace treaty. Following the Progressive Coup, the National Progressive Party has sought to recapture southern Alaia.
