The West Alaxian War was a military conflict taking place within the West Alaxian region, between a coalition consisting of primarily Ceironia, Fazar, and Jimaria; and the West Alaxian United Front (WAUF) of Ginsukyo, Thraxia, and Atlantia.

Fighting began when Ginsukyo declared war on Fazar, initiating an invasion of the Fazarian exclave of Tuzal. This was followed shortly by a Ceironian declaration on Thrax and the WAUF on December the 22nd, which they allege was prompted by a Thraxian assault on their forces. The Thraxian government at the time maintained Ceironian forces attacked first. The Ceironian declaration was accompanied by a cyber warfare attack of unprecedented scale, knocking out telecommunications and damaging infrastructure across the WAUF.

The Jimarian declaration came a few days later in January, followed shortly by a Hvede missile strike against Ginsukyo. While initial Ceironian and Jimarian offensives were highly successful, Jimarian forces would become bogged down in a prolonged Siege of the Ginsukyoan city of Makise, the longest and deadliest engagement of the war.

The August 2522 Atlantian Air raids against Fazar, followed by the Thraxian bombing of the Ozge Stadium in Kessel, would draw Jimaria and Fazar into formal war with Thrax and Atlantia.

In July 2524, Atlantia, the last WAUF holdout, would surrender unconditionally, marking a formal end to the war. All former WAUF states were divided into occupation zones, between Ceironia, Fazar, Jimaria, and Sinkaja.

Thraxian Government Claim of Events

Before their occupation and dissolution, the Thraxian government maintained that Ceironian forces attacked theirs first, and that they had nothing to do with the Ozge Stadium Bombing. Obviously, these claims are disputed by the coalition nations, who maintain the Thraxian government launched the attacks in support of their Ginsukyoan and Atlantian allies.
