The War So Far
From 1979 to 1991, General Secretary Ivan Cvetkovic led the Soviet Federal Republic of Savonia with an iron fist, suppressing ethnic separatist movements under his regime. His death in 1991 sparked a brutal war within the country. In 1995, the UN and NATO intervened, ending the conflict and separating the warring nation-states:
Trakovia, now a monarchy under King Petar Trakovich, a former freedom fighter
Vostria, a Communist country, home of the former Savonian government
The worst of the fighting centered on a region called Kalkov Pass - a series of passes through the mountains that once divided Savonia. Trakovia was given the region by NATO as the Kalkov Pass Administrative Area. Since 1995 they have policed the area, fighting partisans and militias in hopes of stabilizing the region.
April 20, 2025: After years of resistance to the Trakovian state within the Kalkov Pass Administrative Area, the Kalkov Liberation Front seizes control of the Trakovian village Kadan and declares it, and Kalkov Pass, to be Vostrian territory.
