Kirvograd War of Independence

War of Kivogradian Independence
The Kirvograd war of independence was a conflict between the state of Kryvonea and Kirvogradian rebels. The rebels declared an initially peaceful secession from Kryvonea, which the Kryvoneans strongly disputed.

Declarations and Preparations
The beginning of the war started with the declaration of independence of Kirvograd, led by Basco Parola. This was followed up by an announcement from the Kryvonean government demanding the rebel group stand down and rejoin Kryvonea peacefully. These terms were rejected by the Kirvogradians which kick started the initial developments of the war. The Kirvogradians began to fortify their lands in preperation for the upcoming Kryvonean siege. The Kryvoneans meanwhile began to gather their forces in a bid to retake the city.

Weeks before the 1st battle
The weeks before the first battle saw both sides gathering their forces and preparing for the upcoming siege. This was shown clearly by the establishment of Army camps on both sides and a number of small skirmishes between scouting partys, predominately Kryvonean scouts who strayed to close to Kirvograd. The upcoming battle was a major point in the war.

The First battle of Kenka
As kenka fortified the rebel forces chose to advance before the Kryvonean defenders could fortify themselves more thoroughly. The battle began slowly at first as both sides inched closer. The rebels travelled south and met the kryvonean vanguard at a crossroads and promptly pushed the kryvoneans out and towards kenka. The pitched battle outside of the city began shortly after in which the rebels crushed the kryvonean forces and pushed inwards. The city fell quickly with some kryvonean forces maintaining control of portions of the city, a major rebel victory.
