Aspayn Civil War

The Aspayn Civil War is an ongoing multi-sided civil war in Aspayn, fought between the federal government, the Khanate of Tsetseyglaan, the Khanate of Choyndingal, and several smaller armed factions.

The civil war's origins emerged in the low-level Insurgency in Tsetseyglaan, a conflict between a united front of Tsetseyglaan independence militias and organisations, the NSRA, and the Khanate itself. The conflict was declared over in 1978, with the signing of the Olurkan Armistice early that year. However, unrest was far from over, and in 1981, the Dak of Tsetseyglaan was couped by General Caachi Yekehiren. Yekehiren declared himself the Jhyinger, a title that had over time become reserved only for the Daksag. Military action directly began in March 1982, after the Bombing of Urakenz Palace in February. Yekeherin secured a deal with the NSRA that meant the two sides would fight alongside each other, as long as the organisation continued its uprising in other Khanates.

After military conflict began, the situation escalated, with Choyndingal eventually declaring its independence in October of that year. Dak Borukachyiig I stated, "the federation as an entity no longer held use to our people - it is time to seek our own path". While he publicly held an opinion of peace and desire for his own path, in reality he, and his closest generals, used the opportunity of the conflict in order to gain power. The YNPA was created by Ikhagzarinaran nationalists, who wanted to uphold Aspayn's unity against the opposing forces. At first, the organisation skirmished with the federal military, however they agreed on a ceasefire out of circumstance.

The Aspayn Civil War has become one of the bloodiest conflicts in recent history, with a large amount of casualties. All sides in the conflict have been found guilty of human rights abuse, most notably several massacres and mass killings, as well as torture of prisoners of war and rape. It has also caused a major refugee crisis, including thousands of Slovans migrating in exodus to Erdenja and Sentryzijâ. With the current situation being a stalemate all around, it is unknown if the war will end any time soon.
