The Piper War, or the Piper Border Conflict. Was a military conflict between the Izen Republic and the Nachten Federation. (2018-2023)

After the collapse of the Noviac Scotic Union ‘NSU’ in 1996, Nacthen and Izen were released as states. And ever since have been competing for the large territory by the name of “Piper”.

From 2004 and 2008 there was many border issues, that were normally resolved, however on

August 14th, 2018, 150 Izenian Marines (Kommandos) were patrolling “Nicholson Hill” when they started receiving heavy fire from the hill.

The attack was an act of Miscommunication, and lasted nearly 2 hours before Izenian troops were able to retreat. This attack left 32 Izenian Kommandos dead, and another 23 injured. With 7 Nachtens injured.

After this attack,  President Yoseff of Izen, ordered the occupation of Nicholson Hill, and other areas around the border. On August 24th 5,000 Izenian Kommandos invaded Nacht

Which resulted in the Second Battle of Nicholson Hill. In the end, Izen was victorious. However with nearly 650 deaths, and another 850 injured. Nacthen Casualties are estimated to be around 1,500.

For the next year the main fighting would be around South-Eastern Piper, around the city of Dortyetsky. With mobilization, and no official declaration of war. Many militias formed in and around the Piper area. One such militia group was the “Confederacy of Piper People” or C.P.P

Which amounted to nearly 2,000 people who fought alongside the Izen Republic.

In 2019, the area of Nicholson was officially taken by Izen, and so the push began. At this point both sides had roughly deployed 80,000 troops.

Both sides are fairly weak in troop status. Many wear home clothes, and both sides have no aircraft or tanks.

After fighting over Nicholson for nearly 3 years, in 2021 both sides issued a cease fire.

For around 2 months things were peaceful, until the C.P.P ordered an attack on local Nacht facilities, including Churches, Political Buildings, and Schools.

After this Nacht officially declared war, Nachten deployed nearly 75,000 troops to retake Nicholson. However Izen was entrenched and from October 28th 2021 - December 2nd 2022, Izen held, causing thousands of casualties to both sides.

With war stretching, Izen issued one final attack, On May 22nd, 2023. Izen ordered 100,000 troops to march into the city of Dortyetsky. On June 15th, 2023. Nacht officially decided to come to an agreement.

Agreements were made, the land of Nicholson would be returned to Izen. And Nachten military personnel would be limited around the border areas.
