Berinsky War

**Berinsky War** is an ongoing conflict between Konzask and allies, Quangsuh and allies, Svaboda and allies, and Entaria and allies. The war is mainly fought on the continent of Berinsky thus the name of the conflict. The conflict began with a heightening of tensions between Quangsuh and Konzask and war was declared by Quangsuh on Konzask on the 31 May 2021.

## Background

### Konzask-Quangsuh Rivalry

Since the founding of Quangsuh as a communist state in 1944, Konzask became its natural rival as both countries are communist but with different views on the political system. Konzask viewed Quangsuh as an unstable dictatorships riddled with poverty, while the Quangsui saw Konzask as an evil sibling, that banked all its successes on luck. Needless to say both states feared and hated each other, on several occasions close to drawing blood. Both countries rapidly tried to expand their military size causing an arms race. After Hao's death in 2019, a brief civil war took place between the Quangsuh People's Liberation Army (QPLA) and the Quangsuh People's Liberation Organisation (QPLO) which saw a QPLO victory with the support of Konzask hoping to install a pro-Konzask government. QPLO did not last and in 2021 Yi Sukegei, a staunch anti-QPLO was elected ending the brief warming of relations between the two nations.

### Collapse of QPLO

The Quangsuh People's Liberation Organisation (QPLO) was formed following the death of Hao in 2019 as the new government in place led by Yon Chogukto and promised elections and rights never seen before in the country. The Quangsui People's Republic was also renamed as Quangsui Federation. The QPLO immediately found support from the Konzask and keen to set up a pro-Konzask government in Quangsuh. Later, the UN discovered multiple crimes against humanity in Quangsuh and Konzask cut all ties to the government it installed. Economic collapse soon took hold of Quangsuh. Chogukto subsequently resigned and succeeded by Chen Wo and then Yi Sukegei who have opposed the QPLO and cut ties with the Konzaskis. The attempt made to influence Quangsuh caused much hatred by Quangsuis soon after especially the UN report and betrayal.

### Xichang Hostage Crisis (April - June 2021)

The Xichang Hostage Crisis took place between 23 April to 13 June 2021 in an attempt by Entaria to be involved in the conflict by sending peacekeeping forces in Nurasovask. The Quangsuh managed to hold 600 troops of the Entarian forces in Xichang as hostage and demanded ransom for their freedom. Treka mobilised it's forces in anticipation of a war. The crisis ended when King Azrael of Zion paid the ransom. It led to growing support for President Yi Sukegei among Quangsuis and a political crisis in Entaria.

## Participants

### Quangsuh and allies

Quangsuh formed the Conference of Independent States with Höllefjord, Corusconia, Trimainia and Vaadekoenië later in the war as an economic union. The first two also serve as a supporting rule with Quangsuh in the war.

### NDF

The NDF is structured by Executive Solutions, a PMC located in Zion and comprises of 100,000 men from Vaadekoenië, Zion, Storalia, Aesidia and others.

## Events

### Landing on Quangsuh

On the 4th of August, the Zhonghan Red Navy and Army attempted to land on the shores of Quangsuh but just before the landing took place, their navigation system malfuntioned and the Navy became a floating target for the Quangsuis due to the chaos on board. The landing attempt was a spectacular failure with the sinking of multiple destroyers, corvettes and frigates and badly damaged others more with Zhonghan's aircraft carrier also taking a massive hit.

### Battle for Nuraslovask City

The Battle for Nuraskavask City is one of the most atrocious battle in Berinsky War so far. The battle began a day before the war began with a major uprising in the city after the genocide Quangsuh was committing becomes more and more apparent and several proxies, namely Dolg and Spartak infiltrated the city against the Quangsuh forces of about 10,000 men. Dolg managed to take the central radio station and broadcast the world the birth of Novavostok. Svaboda and Prizrak soon surrounded the city and laid seige on them and had a combined force of 350,000 men and cut of any potential Quangsuh reinforcements. The NDF arrived soon after and began a two day bombardment of the city and anti-air battery attempting to shoot them down.

Konzask which is at war with Quangsuh now have made an agreement with the NDF with Konzask and Svaboda controlling the outercity while the proxies and NDF take the innercity inch by inch. The battle was extremely bloody and the Quangsuis were extremely outnumbered but they managed to hold out until 8 November when they retreated out of mainland Berinsky.

### Victory Proclaimed

Victory was proclaimed by Quangsuh on 13 November 2021 after Quangsuh troops were evacuated from mainland Berinsky a few days earlier on 8 November. Later on 29 November, Konzask proclaimed victory in the war as well citing the fact that Quangsuh have retreated from mainland Berinsky. Konzask troops in formerly Quangsui Nuraslavask have also uncovered horrific war crimes against innocent civiians in the region. With both sides proclaiming victory, it is clear that the war is not yet over.
