June 2011
Karestan, Dhechnia
Anti Government protests begin in the Karestan oblast of Dhechnia, initially peaceful, the organizers of the protests allegedly belonged to the communist group, Fale Revolutionary Internationale. They called for Karestani independence, and supported setting up a Communist government in power in the small oblast. The Protest was put down by government troops, who arrested protesters with light sentences in prison. Public backlash in the Karestani oblast was pronounced, and more government troops were deployed to help keep the situation under control.
Oskeva, Dhechnia
On the 11th of June, Islamic Terror group Al-Qaria bombed multiple targets in cities across Dhechnia. This caused mass panic as Al-Qaria began an armed insurgency against the government, while the Salafist leader, Mohammed al Baradi, declared Jihad against the Secular Dhechen government, and a desire to form a worldwide Jihadist Caliphate. They secured the city of Smerlva in days, which became the worldwide capital for Jihad, and Al-Qaria in particular.
September 2012
Karestan, Dhechnia
Communist Revolutionaries had been relatively united with the government against Al-Qaria, and was granted temporary independence while the Al-Qarian insurgency was brought to heel. The ceasefire broke down quickly as the industrial base of Karestan was a severe loss for the Dhechen Republic. The Government invasion began on the 15th of September, causing worldwide condemnation, from the Vastava Pact in particular, as well as left-leaning nations worldwide.
October 2016
Dhechnia
The war has devolved into a stalemate, neither side has gained the upper hand and all sides are exhausted from the slow and grinding conflict. Al-Qaria seems stronger than ever, initiating terror attacks across the globe, the Dhechen Government is on the back foot, with many of it's outdated military outnumbered and outgunned by Terrorist Militia on all sides. Karestan faces an existential crisis, as extremists close in on Novye-Grenskaya, the capital of the unrecognized nation.
But Al-Qaria may have shot themselves in the foot, as terror attacks in Takhshiyt and the Grozyar Republic threaten to draw those powers into the war, and their threatening of Karestan may draw the Vastava Pact against them too.
