Saudi Civil War (Chequers)

The Saudi Civil War was a conflict that began on December 16, 2033 and ended on September 21, 2039, with the death of el-Salah. It was mainly fought between three factions, the Greater Arabian government led by Safwaan el-Salah (known as the Nationalists), the Salman administration of Saudi Arabia (known as the Loyalists), who supported and was supported by many revolutionary groups, and the Majana Front, a Shia group based the Saudi Arabia's eastern province.
On December 14, 2033, after taking control of Saudi Arabia's government in a successful coup widely supported by the populace, militant groups began attacks on the new and weak Nationalist government. By December 16, Iran began arm shipments to Shia groups in the Eastern Province, and Arabia descended into civil war soon after.
A UN peacekeeping force spearheaded by the United States secured some vital ports in Hejaz by 2036 and helped many war refugees escape. The Saudi Civil War was the first major conflict where the United States Army used robotic soldiers, as well as the advanced computer system ELI.

In 2039, with the defeat of the last el-Salah strongholds, the war ended de-facto with a Salman victory. Peace was made in Baghdad, Iraq, as multiple independence groups that supported Salman got their independence, at the reluctance of Saudi Arabia.Category:Wars
