Easter War (22nd Century and On)

The Easter War, also known as the April War, Spring War and codenamed by the Indonesian military as Operation Swift Justice (Indonesian: Operasi Keadilan Cepat) was fought between a coalition of Southeast Asian countries led by Indonesia and Vietnam, against New Guinea from April 13, 2036 to April 30, 2036.
Of the other Southeast Asian countries involved, Cambodia entered as a belligerent. While the Malaysian government did not choose to participate this time, volunteers from Malaysia, as well as the usual southern Thailand and the Philippines joined the Indonesian effort.
Most of the fighting took place in the Maluku Archipelago and West Timor respectively, and began when Indonesian forces launched a devastating surprise attack on New Guinean-held territory in the Maluku Archipelago and Sulawesi during Easter Sunday, one of the holiest days in Christianity.
Indonesian, Cambodian and Thai-Filipino volunteer forces began with a massive successful crossing of the East Kalimantan-North Sulawesi Transoceanic Highway, and then advanced virtually unopposed through the rest of Sulawesi and then through the Sulawesi-Maluku Transoceanic Highway. 
Further south, Indonesian and Vietnamese forces overran the join the New Guinean forces stationed in West Timor.
However, New Guinean forces mobilized within four days, halted the Indonesian and Vietnamese offensives, and performed successful counteroffensives deep into Indonesia. They returned to Timor to help secure East Timor from any Indonesian invasion from the west, and drove Indonesian and Vietnamese forces out of West Timor.
The war led to tensions between the Egyptian-Persian coalition and Australia, as both political entities had made efforts to resupply their allies. In addition, Uyghurstan supplied the Indonesian military with rockets, with the Uyghurstani government declaring a "Global Zakat" for Indonesia.
China and Russia both declared their neutrality from the conflict.
In the end, the United Nations brokered a ceasefire. In the end, Indonesians were vindicated by the early successes of the Indonesian and Vietnamese forces, as they had been humiliated during World War III, the Maluku Crisis and the 2032 War of Attrition. The 2036 Manila Accords that followed afterwards returned the Maluku Archipelago, Sulawesi and West Timor to Indonesia. However, the islands near West Papua and those south of the Maluku Archipelago were given to New Guinea.
