Fourth Andorn Crisis

Not to be confused with the Andorn Crisis, which took place in April 2021, with the Second Andorn Crisis, which took place in August 2021, with the Third Andorn Crisis, which took place in February 2022, and with the Fifth Andorn Crisis, which took place in February 2023.

The 4th Andorn Crisis, also known as the Fourth Andorn Crisis, was a conflict that took place between the Fourth Empire of Andorn, the Goblin Empire of Askonia, and the Federation of Eskus for the control of the state of remaining Andorn states in Syltör after the Third Andorn Crisis.

Imperium-Andorn Deal Failure
Following the weeks since the Third Andorn Crisis, Andorn was negotiating with Imperium to join its nation. While it was almost a success, a couple of weeks of delays largely collapsed the deal as Askonia joined the New Dorasterrock Accords aligning themselves with Imperium. If Andorn joined Imperium, Askonia would have been given Savras and taken from the Andorn state.

CharlieS401 Coup
On April 22nd, 2022, CharlieS401 enacted coup against Kaiser Oranje Von Savras. However, this coup lacked substantial backing and support from the population or the government officials. This coup was swiftly ended by CharlieS401 and all things returned to normal.

Askonian Demands Savras
Since the months following the Third Andorn Crisis, Askonians have kept demanding the city of Savras in the Fourth Empire of Andorn's control. This continuing pressure was backed by the growing Askonian military power as a formidable fighting force.

Northern Dragon Plan
Salos Kanik, knowing about the potential of war and the potential damages that Andorn could face and informed about plans of Askonia to join Imperium, (If Andorn joined Imperium, Andorn would have been backstabbed and possibly lose autonomy) decided to form the Northern Dragon Plan. The plan was designed for the northern provinces in Andorn to declare independence and eventually reform into a new Andorn state if Andorn was led by CharlieS401.

Oranje Resignation
On April 29th, 2022, Oranje Von Savras abdicated from the position of Kaiser in Andorn handing over power to CharlieS401.

Askonian Declaration of War for Savras
Following the abdication, Askonia declared war for Savras against Andorn. While this was not publicly official, a war ticket was made to show the willingness of the Askonian government to go to war with Andorn. Knowing Andorn was in an unsuitable position to hold onto Savras without bloodshed, CharlieS401 looked into alternative solutions for the Askonian demands.

Eskus Formation
With Salos being informed about CharlieS401 being the new Kaiser and the war being highly threatened, he gathered the Northern Andorn leaders and declared the Federation of Eskus from the Fourth Empire of Andorn. This was complicated however by the Ardena leader of David selling Ardena to Hearthstone. (which forced Eskus to rebuy the land lost) While the Fourth Empire of Andorn opposed this declaration of independence, there was no substantial backing or force in Andorn to contest this movement and it was allowed to successfully go through.

Savras-Areska Sale
With the Askonians declaring war, CharlieS401 decided to sell the provinces of Savras and Areska to the nation of Norfthorn to prevent the territories from going into Askonian hands. While Norfthorn accepted the deal, they made a side deal with Askonia in which Askonia buys Savras from Norfthorn allowing Savras to be under Askonian control.

Collapse of Fourth Empire of Andorn
As Eskus declared independence, CharlieS401 dissolved the Fourth Empire splitting up its provinces into independent states.

Orilin Independence
Orilin would remain independent and neutral until it reformed with Pillars of Sun and Nothrook into the Imperial Remnants of Andorn. Wivamovia would attempt to form a diarchy with Orilin which failed. A few months later after its independence, the Nationalist Party of Orilin would form to rebel and attempt to coup Lagg the Engineer in the Wivamovia Insurrection.

Pillars of Sun Independence
The Pillars of Sun would remain independent and neutral until it reformed with Orilin and Nothrook into the Imperial Remnants of Andorn.

Nothrook Independence
Nothrook would join the Tsardom of Ryzan for protection against the ongoing Nothrook dispute by Wivamovia and remain under Ryzan until it was granted independence and reformed with Orilin and Pillars of Sun into the Imperial Remnants of Andorn.

Debatable Endings
It is debated if the crisis ended on the day Andorn collapsed or when Andorn reformed in August 2022 under the Imperial Remnants of Andorn.

Aftermath
The collapse of Andorn would be the end of the era of Andorn control of the region in any regard until August of 2022.
