The Seven-Day War (Platacian: Kystkrig, "Kysten War"; Seabersian: Södra kriget, "Southern War"), also known as the Seabersian War, Kysten War or Kyrsten War, was fought between March 2 and 9, 2027, by Seabersia, Platacia, Ironcastle and several other nations.
Relations between Seabersia and Platacia had not recovered since the Seabersian Civil War. In 2026, Platacia invaded the Kysten region of Seabersia, its stated goal as being the reclamation of territory lost in the collapse of the Second Empire. In response, Ironcastle held negotiations between Platacia and the victors of the Seabersian Civil War, led by Verard Duttler. The treaty removed both Platacian and Seabersian troops from the territory and created an autonomous government under Ironcastle, protected by Ironian peacekeepers.
Tensions had been rising between Seabersia and Platacia for several months prior to the war. On the 29th of February, 2027, three Seabersian nationals killed two dozen Platacians in the city of Gravida. Platacia blamed the Seabersian government, calling it "an act of war", and moved troops into Kysten. In response, Seabersia declared war on Platacia and attacked the Kysten region. During this, several Ironian outposts came under attack as well. As such, Ironcastle declared war on Seabersia.
The initial Seabersian advance was swift, pushing Platacian troops out of Kysten entirely. On the Ironian border, Seabersia launched the largest airborne assault since the Second Great War in Operation Archangel. However, entrenched Ironian defenders and a lack of Seabersian air supremacy quickly turned the assault into one of the largest disasters in military history. Over ninety percent of the attacking force was killed or captured, over thirty thousand men in total.
Following Operation Archangel, Ironian and Platacian forces began pressing into Seabersia. Operation Steel Dawn saw Ironian troops move twenty kilometres into Seabersia in twenty-four hours. Following significant gains by Ironian forces, Ironcastle called for a ceasefire.
The Treaty of Aelcrest saw Kysten officially transferred to Platacia in perpetuity, with Seabersia renouncing all claims on the territory. In addition, Seabersia was forced to pay hundreds of billions of dollars in reparations to both Ironcastle and Platacia.
Background
The war was part of the Eastern Conflicts, a series of wars, interventions and skirmishes between Platacia and Seabersia which ended in late 2028. During the Seabersian Civil War of 2024-2026, Platacia had invaded the region of Seabersia known as Kysten (Kyrsten in Seabersia), fighting both the government and rebels. However, after the defeat of the Vazir government in Seabersia, the new government led by Verard Duttler agreed to sit down with Platacia in Aelcrest to negotiate over the status of Kysten. After several days of negotiations mediated by Ironcastle, it was agreed that Kysten would become an autonomous demilitarised zone administered by Ironcastle. While neither side was pleased with the outcome, both Platacia and Seabersia accepted it nonetheless.
Soon after the end of the Seabersian Civil War, Platacia became involved in the War of Honour against the Youthsville Pact. Its navy lost several ships in the fighting, but the nation was unscathed. Platacia's performance in the war had emboldened its military, and increased its favour with the Emperor.
