Sordish Civil War

1min

Sordish Civil War was a period of violent battles that took place between three different armies of the Sordish Armed Forces and militant political organizations in Sordland. It started after General Luderinโ€™s military coup in 1927, when he executed hundreds of communists on the streets of Holsord in 1928. It provoked a huge reaction from both the public and General Rikard of the 7th Army, who ordered an attack on Luderinโ€™s forces, which started the Sordish Civil War. Both Young Sords and Red Youth were responsible for most of the urban warfare that took place in Holsord and Lachaven during the war. While heavy fighting took place between the armies, many left-wing revolutionaries took to the streets and joined the Red Youth in hopes to use the situation to bring the revolution to Sordland. This led to thousands of nationalists to join the Young Sords in their fight against the revolutionaries. Tens of thousands of people were killed in the fightings that started in Holsord and rapidly expanded to the corners of Sordland. Amidst the most bloody period of the war, Colonel Tarquin Soll and the 6th Army opened fire on the militant rebels of the Young Sords and the Red Youth, killing hundreds of them in Conriat. Consequently, he joined the war and attacked both General Rikard and General Luderinโ€™s forces. In 1929, Colonel Tarquin Soll destroyed the 3rd and 7th Armies and started pushing both sides to the east. After the Battle of Holsord, he won a victory over General Rikardโ€™s last remaining forces and brought an end to the Civil War. Following the war, he wrote a new Constitution and re-established the republic, becoming the 2nd President of Sordland shortly after.
