World War Wales

World War Wales, the Hispaniolan War or King Arthur's War was a conflict in the Caribbean between Teedlessia and the Kingdom of Brittany over control of the island of Hispaniola.

## Background

In the 30th of May, the Welsh Commonwealth established a colonial town in the island of Hispaniola, which was soon named Trefartor, "Arthur's Town". The founding of Trefartor caused an international incident with the Pan-American League over their anti-colonial doctrine, which eventually ended in compromise. Wales was allowed to keep Hispaniola, whose counties would then also become a part of the Pan-American League. Peace in Artoryedd was kept until the second of June, when Wales was disbanded and most of Artoryedd was given to Brittany, with the only exception being Jarawynn, which was granted to Iceland.

## War in Hispaniola

Following the transfer, the Teedlessian Empress moved to a forceful annexation of the isle, establishing the Imperial Protectorate of Vartan in an act of war against the Bretons. Brittany enjoyed the support of the Holy European Empire, specifically the states of Soxony, Cosonia, Hatti and Yugoslavia, while Teedlessia entered in an alliance with Iceland.

#### Battle of Paris and Hatti

One of the earliest moves of the war was an Icelandic attack on Paris, which resulted in the deaths of both Ahrimän of Hatti and Benniboy of Soxony, giving Iceland a strong early advantage. After this event, Hatti's war effort would be permanently crippled, though Soxony would still participate in battles in the west.

#### Battle for New Sailavela

Il Coso of Cosonia and Amelie of Brittany went on an assault of New Sailavela in an attempt to force a Teedlessian surrender. While the Europeans initially had the upper hand, Teedlessia would be assisted by Icelandic reinforcements and the incredibly poor ping experienced by il Coso due to his location in the island of Sardinia, leading to a Cosonian-Brittany defeat.

#### Conclusion

Thanks to the might of the Icelandic military, the Pan-American League successfully annexed the islands of New Wales and Jarawynn as a region under military occupation.

## Aftermath

When the war concluded, Undersnow was chosen as an intermediary between the two sides during the peace conferences. The Treaty of Hispaniola, as it was dubbed by Undersnow and many observers, stipulated that all sides would cease hostility, with the region of Hispaniola being turned into a international demilitarized zone. In addition, Iceland and Teedlessia, who confiscated weapons of war from the Europeans, would give back this equipment.

Shortly after, Yugoslavia attacked Iceland, which would eventually kickstart the Icelandic War of Yugoslav Containment and the destruction of Yugoslavia. Hatti would briefly continue the construction of its capital Hattusa-a-Nesha, before migrating to the island of Marajó in Brazil, where it would deliberately not join the PAL as protest over their aggressive expansion. Brittany would continue their colonial ambitions, eventually wishing to expand into the Indian subcontinent and even making another attempt to assert control over Hispaniola during the founding of Kiskeya.

### Legacy in Hispaniola

The events leading up to and during the war would leave their marks on the peoples of Hispaniola, who would remember the period as the Days of Turmoil. During the successive occupations by Wales and Brittany, the natives of the island suffered greatly under colonial oppression, the effects of which were most pronounced during the joint occupation by Brittany and Iceland. After the establishment of the DMZ in Hispaniola, the Kiskeyan Liberation Front (KLF), an independence movement which had begun under the joint occupation by Brittany and Iceland, gradually picked up steam before finally catching the attention of the international community on SD101. As the KLF butted heads with Brittany in its bid for Kiskeyan independence, it found support from Teedlessia and PAL, and on SD102, the Republic of Kiskeya was founded, ending the 54-day long interregnum.
