The Attackers

World War One also known as the Astoran war or the Varangian war as well as the Cornelian invasion of Astora was one of the bloodiest wars in the history of Iris. The war was sparked in 1939 AVF when Astora despite being a ally to Sveal ordered the genocide of all Svealliot Varangians within Auril. Immediately after this the nearby USA navy was ordered to sail to Astora and retrieve fleeing Varangians. Astoran Coastal Batteries opened fire on the Nimbusian navy. The Astoran militia along with Astoran marines entered a heavily Svealliot populated area and massacred all who lived there and proceeded to burn down the Shrine of the Spirit at the Edge of the world. On Celestius 29th 1939 AVF at 3:00 PM NST ( Nimbusian Standard time ) the United States of Auril declared war on the Republic of Astora. On Celestius 29th 1939 AVF at 11:30 PM NST the Republic of Nova Selenoia declared war on the Republic of Astora. On Celestius 30th 1939 AVF at 3:00 AM NST nearly 12 hours after the USA declared war the Continental Republic of Sveal declared war on the Republic of Astora. The Empire of Cornelia and Pavellion came to the aid of the USA, Selenai, and Sveal. Astora's allies Nifelgard and Galicia both declare war on Cornelia. Head of the Cornelia forces Alexander Rilof takes the 3rd and 4th Cornelian Army the Royal Cornelian Marines and 5 tank divisions and rushes north meeting the Nifelgard and Galician armies at Myncarroat farm after 5 weeks of fighting the Cornelians come out victorious. Without waiting for more supplies or troops Rilof marches his men across Cornelia and joins the battle of Modder and for the next 5 years the Astorans fight the Cornelians, and Selenioans in the trenches. Meanwhile the USA and Sveal are fighting a naval battle and failing to get a significant number of troops into Astoran territory. On the other side of the country of Astora, Pavellion is also fighting trench warfare. The Astoran ally Solu takes the opportunity of the large war in Auril to invade the nation of Bellanova. The country of Gojis declares war on Solu after their invasion leading to more long entrenched warfare. Another 2 years go by and no progress has been made by any side. But then Rilof breaks through the Astoran line and within 2 weeks the Astoran capital is captured. Soon after the Kingdom of Moca declares war on Astora leading to the complete collapse of the Eastern Astoran front one Moca's hordes arrive. The USA and Sveal are able to land troops and in Crystallion 1947 AVF Astora surrenders. The western islands of Astora are given to Pavellion the island of Edwardland is given to the USA and all of the Astoran mainland is given to Cornelia. Even though the war in Auril is over it takes another 13 years for the war to officially end in 1960 after Solu surrenders to Gojis.
