Northern Syltörian Border War

The The Northern Syltörian Border War was a conflict that took place between the Principalities of Andorn and the Askonian Province of Ardena for regional influence in the northern Syltör region.

Rising Ardena-Andorn Tensions
Following the ascension of Otto von Savras to the Kaisership of Andorn, Ardenian and Andornian relations would increase over the Andorn claims on Ardenian territory ,which was lost in the Fourth Andorn Crisis, and the Ardenian call for the invasion of Andorn to protect its integrity due to fears of an inevitable Andorn invasion.

Naval Invasion of Andorn
The Ardenian Splinter group would initiate a naval invasion from the southern tip of Askonia onto the coastal Andorn state of Avondale triggering the start of the border war.

Battle of Hinomir

On February 12th, 2023, Ardenian forces would land troops at the Andorn naval port of Hinomir in the attempt to seize and steal an Andornian destroyer. this attack would result in a draw with Andorn forces being able to contest Ardenian forces in their naval invasion.

Andorn Reaction
With the Battle of Hinomir concluding, a wide spark in Andorn nationalism grew and calls for a retaliatory offensive into Ardena which later was done in the Fichtenwald Offensive a few weeks after the battle of Hinomir.

Ardena Reaction
With the Battle of Hinomir concluding, Ardenians largely moved into a defensive style of warfare given the mobilization of Andornian forces and a seemingly evident offensive on the Andorn-Ardenian Border which was later proved to be true in the Fichtenwald Offensive.

Fichtenwald Offensive
On February 26th, 2023, Andorn would begin a retaliatory offensive against Ardena as retribution for the Battle of Hinomir across the Andorn-Ardenian Border.

Second Siege of Fichtenwaldburg

As Andorn commenced the Fichtenwald Offensive, Andornian and Ardenian forces would meet at the Ardenian city of Fichtenwaldberg as the first Andorn offensive action in the war. The siege of the city would result in the Ardenian Military being overrun and forced withdraw with its rear guard being destroyed in its last stand at Fichtenwaldburg's keep.
