The Kelelemi Civil War is an ongoing violent conflict in the Collective Kelelemi Republic. Following the Seireimeiko, and the death of President Robete Guresone, Sorewa Liberation Uprising forces attacked cities and took control of many major parts of the Kelelemi islands.
Background
The Sorewa Liberation Uprising (SLU) was formed on 5-1 9 PC to oppose the government of the Collective Kelelemi Republic (CKR) to end the oppression of the Sorewa people that the government had supported since the establishment of the CKR and to establish their own state separate from the CKR. The CKR became aware of the SLU on 1-2 9 PC. President of the Collective Kelelemi Republic, Robete Guresone ordered a crackdown on people advocating for Sorewa rights, inadvertently strengthening the SLU's numbers.
On 28-3 10 PC, the SLU bombed and sunk the ATFS Arakar of the Akarian Trade Fleet. The ship was one of several responsible for shipping zaahr from Kelelemi to Tietero. The majority of the companies supplying zaahr to the ATF were either state-owned or owned by Robete Guresone and his political allies, providing the government revenue. The bombing triggered riots and political instability across Kelelemi known as the Seireimeiko.
On 6-4 10 PC, Guresone promised to give the Halma Commissariat an undisclosed amount of Kelelemi's territory in exchange for intervention.
On 7-4 10 PC, rioters stormed the Bluerock House and killed Robete Guresone. Turen Weresame succeeded him as president. Shortly after Guresone's death, rioters affiliated with the SLU began forming platoons.
Course of conflict
Initial conflict
Upon his ascension to the presidency, Turen Weresame declared the Kelelemi was now in a state of war and vowed to avenge Guresone's death.
The day after the war's start, Nodakh, a city in northern Koraliti Island was largely destroyed by SLU fighters.
The Sorewa Liberation Uprising began the Siege of Yenakapol on 9-4 10 PC.
Foreign intervention
On 10-4 10 PC, the Akarian-Utlian Alliance, with approval from Weresame, established Neerakta Military Base on Kerala Island to facilitate their intervention against the SLU. On the same day the Council of Directors of the Confederated Nations of Niueyjar (CODCNN) ordered the 2nd Fleet to Kelelemi to support the CKR, which landed at Voyvonami the next day.
On 14-4 10 PC, the Confederated Nations of Niueyjar (CNN), the Akarian-Utlian Alliance and the Joint-Clan Navy established the Kelelemi War Coalition to better manage their campaign against the SLU.
The Kelelemi War Coalition (KWC) was founded on 14-4 10 PC to better coordinate the actions of the interventionist parties against the SLU.
The SLU attempted to take Izumisawa 13-7 10 PC.
CNN resort
On 22-11 11 PC, it became publicly known that the CNN forces in Kelelemi which were supposed to be trying to capture Koraliti Island were instead building a resort on the island's west coast. The leadership of the CNN was not amused by Geilir's conduct and dismissed him from service on 19-6 12 PC and placed a warrant on him for high treason.
On 29-6 12 PC the Confederated Nations of Niueyjar Navy evacuated 94% of the Confederated Nations of Niueyjar Army's forces in Kelelemi. Seer Admiral Geilir and the remaining 6% remained in the resort built by the Seer-Admiral. The CODCNN proved unable to come to an agreement on how to move forward and all CNN vessels and personal were barred from landing on Kelelemi until a new commander for the 2nd Fleet was selected.
Peace treaty
A peace treaty, drafted by the KWC and the warring parties was signed on 14-1 14 PC. The treaty established the Provisional Republic of Kelelemi, administration of this new entity was divided on Koraliti Island and Ananela Island roughly along where the front lines were. Several new coalition monitoring posts were set up throughout the two islands in addition to existing ones to ensure that fighting had ended. The island of Kerala is left under coalition control with the last vestiges of CKR administration being removed.
"War crimes"
On 5-7 10 PC The Government of CKR declared that the SLU was committing a genocide against the Kawakians and Sawaji.
During the war multiple journalists disappeared in the Halma Commissariat occupied portion of Kelelemi.
SLU attacks outside of Kelelemi
Several members of the SLU were arrested by Tieteran Royal Navy on 10-11 10 PC, after attempting to hijack a warship.
On 15-12 10 PC, the SLU bombed a munitions factory in Siô eee that had been producing munitions for the Akarian-Utlian Alliance. The bombing killed 96 people and triggered safety concerns across eee. On 20-12 10 PC an agreement was made between Siô eee and Haute eee in which the two countries merged back together and established closed borders and a proper military.
Reactions
On 18-4 10 PC both the Unity Territories and the Farloe District of the Serene Union of Spyron barred their citizens from fighting in the war. The Serene Union itself began accepting Kelelemite refugees on 24-4 10 PC.
On 16-10 11 PC, the Yotumic Divisionary Federation proposed a law that would make those on Nongba that support the Sorewa Liberation Uprising official dissidents and proponents of sedition. It was predicted that the law would take 3 years to come into effect despite 93% of the YDF Congress supporting it.
