Republic of El Vierza
Republic of Ancharia
The major drugs war in El Vierza had been raging on since the 1980's and had claimed the lives of over 230,000 El Vierzan civilians, but it was soon coming to an end. The El Vierzan Air Force had launched airstrikes and destroyed most cartel plants, factories and strongholds across the nation, whilst the El Vierzan Police Force worked closely with the El Vierzan National Guard and elements of the El Vierzan Marine Corps to track down major Drug cartels, infiltrate them, capture key warlords, captains and lieutenants before launching large-scale assaults to deploy them, and this had been working. The government had almost completely eradicated drugs up and down the country, or at-least, that is what they thought. Drug cartel leaders and warlords fled with their remaining soldiers to the Republic of Ancharia, which was a self-declared independent republic but was internationally recognized as a part of El Vierza, and partially recognized as an autonomous region of El Vierza. The government had trouble getting access into the Republic of Ancharia, as it had its own policy, laws, and its own separatist military, so El Vierzan forces were not allowed in. The Republic of Ancharia benefited vastly from the drug cartels operating in El Vierza so their government let them in. Within a month the Republic of Ancharia was under control of the new, unified drug cartel, cartel de el Infierno, or the cartel of fire.
The Cartel de el Infierno served as the primary governing body of the Republic of Ancharia, effectivley placing the nation under some sort of drug cartel military junta, as Cartel de el Infierno merged with the separatist Ancharian military, forming the Ancharian Independence Military, consiting of the Ancharian Independence Army, Navy and Air Force. The Ancharian Independence Military heavy resolved around soviet-era technology and weapons, and was mainly funded by the Republic of Ancharia's vast drug market. The Ancharian Independence Air Force got its hands on 20 MiG-29's Via Cuba and began to build up its masses of T-72 recieved from Cuba and the black market. Eventually, Ancharia was ready to strike against El Vierza.
On the night of March 5, 2015, artillery guns of the Ancharian Independence Army opened fire and completely destroyed El Vierzan ethnic villages and towns situated close to the de facto border. It is estimated that 30,000 died in the attacks due to the grouped housings, large families and poverty within the villages. On the morning of March 6, 2015, the El Vierzan Army opened fire with 100 MLRS directly firing into the Republic of Ancharia, hitting key military bases and fortified towns and villages situated close to the border. The Ancharian government responded on the evening of March 7, when 3,000 random El Vierzan nationals, 700 of which were children, were rounded up and shot on national television, and then the Ancharian Independence Army opened up with artillery guns against key El Vierzan roads and railways situated close to the border. One high-speed train was struck in the middle of its journey, de-railed and all 752 passengers on-board died, as well as 4,100 dieng from the bombardment of the roads. On March 8, the El Vierzan President, Jose Nieto ordered for 50,000 El Vierzan Army infantry to move up to the border, supported by 200 M1A2 SEP TUSK Main Battle Tanks and 50 F-16C Falcon aircraft as well as a little suprise for the Republic of Ancharia. The Ancharian Independence Army responded with mortar fire, destroying 7 El Vierzan checkpoints along the de facto border, President Jose Nieto declared this the last straw.
Today, President Jose Nieto has declared war on the Republic of Ancharia and has unvailed his little suprise. 500 MLRS and 200 Artillery Guns have opened fire, deep into the Republic of Ancharia, absolutely bombarding Ancharian military positions and fortifications close to the border and have completely taken the Ancharian Independence Military by suprise. The 200 M1A2 SEP TUSK Main Battle Tanks have charged across the border and have opened up a front against the enemy, supported by the 50 F-16C Falcons which are flying sorties non-stop. The El Vierzan Army is now on the march and the nation has declared general mobilization as this war will not be easy, and the nation has been shifted down into DEFCON 3.
Presient Jose Nieto requests help crushing this rogue, anarchist nation.
