Second Laraniemian War

The Koxoriek-Kaonashian War, or the Second Laraniemian War (began 17 November 2020), is an ongoing war of provocation between Koxor on one side and Kaonashia on the other.

Declaration and initial movements
In the days leading up to 17 November, various accusations were made by both Koxor and Kaonashia over both nations' corruption and economic failures. Both nations offered to help Down Unian during the Down Unian Civil War, and Kaonashia offered full military support in exchange for Down Unian joining The Guardians. Koxor then accused Kaonashia of corruption, and the argument came to a head with Kaonashia telling Koxor to "shut their inferior corrupted mouths". Koxor gave a final warning, but less than one hour later, war had broken out.

Koxor immediately mobilised its troops, with almost 662,000 men landing in Southern Hagston within hours. They were met with resistance by the local Kaonashian garrisons, but held their ground. By the time Kaonashian reinforcements arrived, the Koxoriez were already dug into trenches.
