    The Aurian Civil War is an ongoing conflict in Auria in Eastern Caxcana. The conflict includes over four factions, and has also involved a number of foreign nations including Eiria, Lauchenoiria and Milintica on the side of the Aurian Government-In-Exile. Coytōchte Security Services Corporation (CSSC), a mercenary company from Xiomera is also involved on the side of Sarah Berenstein, with many believing the Xiomeran government is behind their intervention.

    Background

    Timeline

    Beginning

    The conflict began on June 21, 2021 when groups of dark-clothed individuals attacked a number of buildings in the Aurian capital of Lumiere. Some of the groups wore badges with the slogans of the NewNation movement, a prominent group associated with conspiracy theories known for causing unrest. The group attacked the treasury, parliament building, and the residence of the Prime Minister. Prime Minister Jacques Lapointe and his wife Eve Lapointe were both captured and executed. The execution was filmed and uploaded to social media.

    Queen Regent Sophie Laurent fled Auria to Eiria alongside her family, a number of members of parliament, and a detachment of the Aurian Navy on the day of the coup. The governments of Eiria, Lauchenoiria and Huenya quickly announced their support of the remnants of the Lapointe government. Meanwhile in Lumiere, Representative Sarah Berenstein announced that Andrew Laurent-Ćordonnier would be crowned King.

    Lapointe Agreement and Blockade

    On July 24, the Eirian Senate voted to form an official alliance with the Aurian government-in-exile. The agreement was termed the Lapointe Agreement after the late Aurian Prime Minister and authorised Eirian forces to operate within Aurian jurisdiction when accompanied by an Aurian force. Two days later, Lauchenoiria signed a modified version of the Agreement, joining the alliance.

    On August 1, Andrew was crowned King; and the Aurian, Eirian, Lauchenoirian and Huenyan navies began a blockade of Auria in an attempt to prevent further shipments of weapons from Xiomera to those behind the coup.

    On August 8, a Huenyan naval vessel fired a warning shot over a convoy of Xiomeran merchant ships attempting to reach Auria. Two days later, on August 10, shots were fired at First Minister Sarah Berenstein outside the Aurian Parliament Complex, however she was uninjured.

    On November 17, a car bomb went off inside Desmarais Royal Logistical Base in Western Auria. In response, the Cordonnier government placed the country under martial law, and announced an 8pm curfew. CSSC also began openly moving forces into the cities to “assist in maintaining order”.
