The **Namibian Liberation War** not to be confused with the **Namibian War of Independence** was a widespread civil revolutionary conflict which took place within the Magadan Pact administrated Mandate of Namibia from March 17th 2085 until September 4th 2094. The war started when various radical political organisations and parties which advocated for the renewal of Namibian independence and sovereignty formed a big tent coalition organisation named the All-National Popular Action Movement for Namibian Independence (ANPAMNI) sought to dissolve the control and political legislation held by the Mandate of Namibia and to remove all ties with the Magadan Pact in an effort to reform a second Republic of Namibia. These ambitions eventually led to the ANPAMNI declaring national resistance which influenced the politics of the Mandate to be fractured and furthermore causing the multinational Mandate of Namibia to further become aggressive towards enemies of the state, specifically those of rebel sympathisers for the ANPAMNI which further grew the popularity and strength of the party, this resorted to the Magadan Pact forces supposedly committing atrocities against the Namibian people.

As the conflict expanded across Namibia, the conflict divulged from being an open rebellion to becoming an asymmetrical conflict which heavily focused on attrition warfare to delay both sides from obtaining further territory across the nation which dreadlocked the situation, the member states of the Magadan Pact declared military intervention against the Namibian rebels in order to maintain authority and peacekeeping over the Mandate, in turn the Mandate of Namibia's military was heavily demoralised and disorganised, consisting of volunteers which lacked the experience or training to effectively fight against the rebel forces, this caused nations such as Chemgota to begin supporting the Mandate of Namibia's governmental forces in order to protect important settlements, such as the capital Windhoek from rebel takeover. Although the efficiency of the support from Chemgotan and Magadan Pact advisors are mixed, as the Namibian Security Forces continued to suffer heavy casualties against the ANPAMNI insurgent forces, prompting nations of the Magadan Pact to take direct intervention rather than peacekeeping and defending settlements, in 2089, the coalition forces consisting of Magadan Pact and Namibian Security Force units launched a series of campaigns and operations against the Namibian rebels located within the southeast and northeast of the nation. The coalition forces had advantages such as aerospace, technological, firepower and numerical superiority which the use of tactics employed by the coalition forces, such as orbital bombardment, air interdiction and largely relying on cruise missiles to barrage rebel strongholds to great effect. The ground forces of the coalition also accumulated to the surrounding terrain and commenced various raids and assaults against the rebels at a rapid pace with overwhelming support from different contributing factors, causing many rebel leaders to surrender or being killed with their followers surrendering in large swaths.

Ultimately, by early 2092 the military forces of the ANPAMNI were crushed and major insurrections were quelled proficiently by the joint coalition forces, although these efforts weren't commemorated by many nations of the international community, with accusations of massacres and the unfair treatment of the Namibian people by the Mandate of Namibia, close allies of the Mandate along with affiliates with the Magadan Pact condemned the intervention from the Magadan Pact forces, members and sympathisers of the ANPAMNI also managed to successfully be elected to positions of power and infiltrated the Mandate of Namibia's governmental institutions such as the legislature and began a series of convert sabotage operations in effort to weaken the political power and stability held by the Mandate, eventually this caused many politicians and political parties having seats within the governmental legislature to switch allegiances towards supporting the efforts of the ANPAMNI and brokering a peace deal with the rebel forces, by 2094 the Mandate of Namibia and the ANPAMNI agreed to hold talks in regards of the recognition of the ANPAMNI along with opening free and fair elections for the people of Namibia to decide the future of their country, the majority of voters agreed to Namibian independence and separation from being a trust territory mandate from the Magadan Pact, thus ending the liberation war, shortly afterwards, members of the Magadan Pact recognised the independence and formation of the Second Republic of Namibia and the previous Mandate of Namibia was peacefully dissolved following the electoral victory.
