Second Unification of Helmia

"This Conflict is considered to have been resolved, which resulted in a Halgean victory against the Daelyria invasion due to the decision made by the Stoneworks administration" 
=== The Start ===
The Helmian Unification Strugle started on January 2nd, 2023, instigated by a High Ranking Military Officer from Credia known as Pancakedemon, after a raid on The Daelyrian capital city of Illerya during a Daelyrian celebration. The Raid lasted around 15 Minutes, and it was a decisive loss for the Credian forces who were routed by the unprepared Daelyrians. The raid was later not recognized by the Credian government as being ordered by them, though there was confusion around this at the time. It was also later found out that the actual person behind the raid on Illerya was a Daelyrian government official, Alev Synderys. Pancakedemon was in fact a spy placed by Alev Synderys to infiltrate the Credian military. He took benefit from the chaotic state of the Credian military following the Orodum crises to climb the ranks. Pancakedemon got banished from Credia after the raid and he would be left unpunished in the Daelyrian Vassal of Synderia. 
=== Aftermath ===
On January 3rd 2023, Daelyrian, Credians, Ostians, And Halgeans met up in the Town of Florentina where Daelyria presented an Ultimatum to The Government of the United Kingdoms of Yulara, stipulating the full and complete annexation of their lands into Daelyria.
The Yularan People outraged and furious, rejected this Ultimatum. A four Hour Conference proceeded which brought about no end to Conflict, and matters continued to escalate. With the Yularan minister of Diplomacy Conrade stating that a defeat which saw the entirety of Yulara destroyed would be preferable to seeing their territories fall in the hands of foreign occupation
January 4th, 2023: By this time Tensions had escalated so much, that both sides had created war council and initiated full military mobilization. A raid was launched on the Credian city of Alsilia, resulting in the Daelyrian raiders killing every online citizen of the town. Later this day Prime Minister Alexander Avondale of the UKY would resign from his post, and be replaced with former Minister of Diplomacy Conrade Havatarmut'yun who was told to find a deal with Lunaris.
=== Cooling Off ===
January 5th, 2023. A Royal Messenger sent by Daelyria had arrived at seraphalos where another conference was held with the Leaders of Halge, this, however, would prove to be another failed attempt at peace, but it did eventually cool down tensions to a point where the Daelyrian war Discord was deleted and partial military mobilization was reestablished.
January 6th, 2023. The Daelyrian High Regent Dusk Synderys brokered a deal with the empire of Lunaris, transferring the vassalization of the UKY to Daelyria in exchange for 500k. 
=== Helmia Unified & Daelyria Victory ===
On January 7th 2023, at exactly 12:58PM GMT/BST, Daelyrian High Regent, Dusk Synderys with the Help of Eric Brewtaker-Synderys announced the Integration of The United Kingdoms of Yulara into the 2nd High Kingdom of Daelyria, now The Helmian Empire of Daelyria. Lacking the support of the Lunari, the UKY surrendered to the superior Daelyrian forces. the UKY was partioned between Daelyria, the Three Thrones and Bardonia.
=== Halgean Rebellion ===
After refusing to unclaim some chunks in the now Lennox annexed region called Aragon, the Dealyrian Government declared Halge's actions as an act rebellion against Daelyria itself. In the next few days, Hälge would release a long series of announcements aimed to paint Daelyria in a bad light. The voracity of the claims given in the announcements has been disputed. 
The battle was fought on the 4th of February. Though the Halgeans relied heavily on professional mercenary companies and spent an estimated 6 million in mercs on the battle, the Daelyrian side barely managed to triumph against the mercenary force, winning only by one point. After an investigation by the Stoneworks War Department, it was determined that at least 2 or more of the points Daelyria won were illegitimate due to them having been obtained using illegal military tactics banned under the Book of War guidelines. After careful consideration, the war department decided to declare the battle a tie since not all of the points optained by Daelyria were able to be accurately verified. While Daelyria claims it was a victory on their side, the Halgean side to this day recognizes the battle to have been fairly and honorably won by their side, arguing that all of their points were obtained legitimately. Which side is the true victor of this battle? I leave that up to you, the reader. 
While all of this was happening, the Halgean government lead an effort in a Stoneworks discord ticket spearheaded by popularguygaming to revoke the vassalization transfer of the UKY from Lunaris over to Daelyria, arguing it was illegal since it breached the contract signed by both parties, they also claimed to have been scammed of $1,000,000, which was the total amount paid to the then Queen of Lunaris for the deal to go through. After careful arguing and deliberating, the Stoneworks administration agreed that the deal between Daelyria and Lunaris was in fact illegal, and immediately nullifying the agreement and restored everything back to the way it was before the deal took place. The staff team also enforced an armistice between the UKY and anyone who might want to re-declare war on them, which heavily implied Daleyria and their allies. The Daelyrian government were in an absolute frenzy after the ruling got released, claiming that the decision was unfair, and that it ruined all of the plans the then King of Daelyria had for Helmia at the time. The implications of this decision by the admins would lead to a clarification in the rules regarding land scamming and transfer of countries, preventing a deal like the one between Lunaris and Daelyria from ever happening again.
