War in the East

First of all, I think it would be an appropriate time to split this topic away from the general GAW discussion as it is getting more focused on the Western War. This topic would cover the Cilician portion of the War, from its beginnings in Imperial Okaiken to the occupation of Okashi and the Quiet Revolution.

What we have so far:
- Jack's map
- Okaiken against Euphemian Nations
- Occupation of Kwangju
- Okaiken attacking islands of the Cilician in 1949

Feel free to discuss it here

Wooo a Front that I have more of a part of!

Kuykan Expanse, Okaiken coming for us, Shayden preparing for you with scared Folland right behind him. Go.

I'm not very involved in this, so if you need anything, just ask!

Cut relations with Okaiken while secretly letting your spies in. <- Normal Oxacmelan behavior

LOL This ain't the present this was back in 1947, a time where Okaiken is imperialist and power hungry.

Occupation of Kwangju and the Sukoy-Sanese Conflict
You might heard of this before, probably written in the USNW wiki article (BTW, the Wiki is now operational and has a good speed) of Okaiken. I just did not write the history due to GAW discrepancies. Ima write a quick draft about this so you would understand how Okaiken became a bad apple.

First of all, Okaiken, having just come out of the shogunate hold in the 1870, had just begun military, thanks to the [x | insert western althenian country here! not Bergenstein!]. By 1880, Okaiken had acquired several ships from [x]. Okaiken then occupied Kwangju, finally accomplishing the failed invasions during the Honda Period. Sukoyria, however, sees this as a threat to their territory, and invaded the Southern Part of Yagi in 1902. There was a big war and Sukoyria lost the war and most of their ships. After the war, Okaiken deeply went to militarization and built more ships. Southern Peilan (now PRP) was invaded by Okaiken and was occupied in the late 1920s. Okaiken invaded the rest on the late 1930s.

By the outset of war, Okaiken wanted to control a group of islands in the Cilician (Kuykan Extension) so it allied itself with Trentannia hoping that the nation, which holds islands in the Kuykan, can help Okaiken with occupying some islands. Okaiken built 5 carriers and used it to launch a surprise at one of the Kuykan Islands. The invasion was an amphibious assault with aerial bombing sweeps. In the end an island in the Kuykan was occupied. GAW in the East has begun.

What do you think?

I like it.  Trentannia or Brüllen would be a good candidate for that west Althenian placeholder.

The invasion was an amphibious assault with aerial bombing sweeps.

You're assuming the Kuykan Expanse is inhabited and defended? I would just think those islands way out there are desolate. It would have been incredibly easy for Okaiken to occupy them, however they'd run into resistance the closer they got to mainland Kuyrut.

Well I know some of those are less inhabited or uninhabited but there are some small towns to show propaganda or something

What there needs to be, is a MAP! (waits for Jack to come out of the woodwork)

A map showing which islands in the Kuykan Expanse are desolate, and those which have habitation. Villages, small towns, ports. Then we can have a better idea of how far Okaiken was able to go, and also give Carl more information to decide exactly how far Okaiken had gone. Then we can plan out the surrounding naval engagements, possible retaking of Lomni Island, and the invasion of Okaiken.

The Cilician Theatre!

Maybe make a map with the cilician in the centre

Honestly, I don't see a point for him basically attacking like 3000 miles away for a small, desolate area. I think we need islands in the Cilician, for a Cilician empire... You feel me?Like what the Japanese did in the '30s.

I can do that, but RLS is killing me.  I'm not sure when I'll have time. Also *theater *center. (Sorry I'm too American to see it any other way)

Theatre is how it's used in the military and military history. Also, I'm glad I can be part of this now - even if it's just naval.

It's not American enough for me.  And the dictionary says theater is correct for war.

Mitron would probably be allied with Folland, right?

Well, yeah. Besides the common enemy, we shared a border and I suppose have fairly close relations.

All of Euphemia, minus Oxacmela were Allied nations, so Mitron would be either Allied or at least Neutral.

Shayden would be fighting against Okaiken too.

Shayden would be the only one to actually be giving Okaiken any trouble.

Oxacmela was neutral, though they can be considered Allied as they supplied the Allied nations with military equipment and 4 Air Force Divisions; but we also "secretly" allowed Brullan spies into our territory, as well as lent military bases to them.

Fraesia, Ivouixkaw, Esdikkom, and Cadonia were neutral.

Oxacmela was such a slut then.  Whoring out to both sides.

Language, please.

Also, since Mitron was considered one of the next nations to possibly be attacked, we deployed a fair amount of armed forces to the area, mostly naval forces patrolling south of Kuyrut. But we kept the necessary force to defend the homeland.

Thing is Chris, this is the early 1950s. What kind of military force did Mitron have at all? I know Folland had a piddly national militia with an outdated Navy.

Well, I didn't say the numbers, I'm just saying what we did.

Did we have a WWI?

No. This is the only world war Adonia ever had.
