Estovakian Civil War

- Conflict of a Country in Shambles -

Ulysses Destruction
The Federal Republic of Estovakia was a stable nation before the events of July 3rd, 1999 transpiered. Estovakia attempted to create their own interception weapon to destroy the Ulysses XF041994 Asteroid. This weapon, known as "Chandelier" was to be completed before the Asteroid entered the earth's atmosphere on July 3rd of 1999, however, construction of the Chandelier did not meet it's dead line for one reason or another.

The Federal Republic of Estovakia was pummeled by many of the Ulysses Asteroid Fragments. The internal infrastructure of Estovakia was heavily damaged.

Civil War
Along with vast damage across the nation and damage to the government of the nation, Estovakia's economy also plummeted after the Ulysses impacts. Sometime between 2000 and as late as 2003, the Federal Republic of Estovakia fell into a catastrophic state of unrest, which quickly evolved into a Civil War.

During this war, multiple factions were formed and combated for the control of the nation. These factions included the Eastern Faction, the Northern Highlands Faction, The Lyes United Front, the Island Coalition and the Independent Trade Tariff Federation.

Of all the factions, the Eastern Faction and the Lyes United Front wielded the most power and commonly combated one another in orban warfare. At one point in time the Eastern Faction launched a multi-city bombing campaign against the Lyes United Front; this was the peak of hostilities between the two major powers.

The Independent Trade Tariff Federation (ITTF) were known as "Naval Insurgents" throughout Estovakia. During the Civil War, the ITTF had the Rousalka Team, the deadliest naval squadron in all of Estovakian at the time; as a part of their ranks. However, like the Island Coalition and the Northern Highlands Faction, the Independent Trade Tariff Federation was defeated by the Eastern Faction. More specifically, the Eastern Faction's top Fighter Squadrons, Strigon and the (later formed) Vampire Team, were responsible for winning key battles against each of those factions. These Teams were quite important, but military technologies which were smuggled from the Principality of Belka after the end of the Belkan War, by Belkan defectors, were seen as the deciding factor in the Eastern Faction's overall success.

Even the Lyes United Front fell to the power of the Eastern Faction, making the Eastern Faction the most powerful faction in the Federal Republic of Estovakia. The exact date of the end of the Civil War is unconfirmed, but definately sometime before the year 2015.

"The Generals"
With the Eastern Faction's victory, "The Generals" came into power over the nation of Estovakia. A military regime was put in place and united the nation under the rule of the military. The citizens of Estovakia found hope within their mighty military and their "Generals". The country became stable once again. However, these "Generals" would later lead Estovakia into war against the neighboring Republic of Emmeria.
