The '''Warring Islands Conflict''' is an escalating counter-insurgency campaign spearheaded by the [[Nova English Armed Forces]] alongside support from the South Seas Island Defence Force against miscellaneous groups of bandits, anti-government militias and Sea Reavers entrenched in the countryside.

==Background==
Following the events of the [[Decade of The Langsaex]], the Warring Islands had been largely left to its own local governance under the direction of the [[Warring Islands Resettlement Administration]]. However with the influx of immigration to the region largely squashed by instability in the core regions, excessive security checks and the [[Operation Claensian-Fyr|closure of borders during the White Plague]]. The WIRA had a significantly lower population than expected to levy for staffing the [[Warring Islands Security Force]] and for much needed infrastructure projects.

Instead, what population had settled on the islands largely existed in isolated farmsteads. Which became increasingly more fortified as bandits and other privateers took advantage of the lack of security. The only bastion of population was the city of [[Hempton Bay]], where locals had redeveloped some sections of the town and utilised the demolished buildings left over from previous conflicts to create a barricade around the new perimeter of the city.

Following the ascension of [[King Aelfric I]] and his campaign of re-establishing authority within the core territories. Attention was turned to the embattled islands where the local government was requesting urgent assistance to combat a growing alliance of convenience between local gangs of bandits, anti-government groups and privateers in the region. With the core territories once again stable, King Aelfric I granted the request and mobilised an initial force of 400 from the [[Nova English Light Infantry]] to back the local security forces.

==Key Events==
*'''February 14th''': following a period of relative quiet in and around Hempton Bay, reports begin to reach the garrison of sporadic gunfire to the east of the city, with an unconfirmed number of police officers killed by armed men. Suggestions that the deaths occurred during a shootout with criminals are quickly dismissed and a stream of refugees from the city's eastern suburbs begun to arrive in the city centre, reporting the approach of a significant armed force. The bells of the Church of St Gabriel the Archangel are run to warm the city's population of the danger as the garrison, initially taken by surprise by the sudden assault, move from the barracks to take up defensive positions outside of the city's perimeter.
*'''February 15th''': with the initial attack from the east of the city repulsed, intermittent fighting occurs at various entryways into the city. Truck bombs are deployed by the militiamen in an attempt to dislodge Nova English Forces from their defensive positions. Airstrikes are called in from the mainland, the [[Nova English Royal Air Force]] make roads on the city's eastern approach impassible, cutting off a large group of militia forces in the process. Law and order is maintained in the city itself, artillery is deployed to the city's outskirts, with precise fire directed at militia positions with the aid of hand-launched unmanned aerial vehicles.
*'''February 16th''': despite news of fighting nearby, a planned goodwill visit by the South Sea Islands Defence Force goes ahead. When following the coast towards the harbour of Hempton Bay, the R.R.S. Madison is targeted by an unguided, shoulder-launched rocket based on the headlands east of the harbour. While the rocket fell well short of the ship and was not deemed to be a threat to the vessel, the Madison returned fire with 4.5 inch deck gun after hurried consultation with Nova English Forces. This marks the first time a ship of the South Sea Islands Defence Force has ever fired in anger. The visiting forces arrive and disembark, after which the Madison put to see again to ensure the safety of the ship.
*'''February 18th''': after high level discussions between the governments of Nova England and the South Sea Islands, the decision is reached to launch the joint Operation Repulse to secure Hempton Bay and the surrounding areas.
*'''February 21st''': beginning with a predawn artillery barrage on rebel positions on the headlands east of Hempton Bay, the assault on February 21st was launched with the objective of clearing the rebels from the headline and cutting them off from supplies arriving by ship. The infantry assault was led by the South Sea Islands Defence Force, owing to their extensive experience fighting in rugged coastal areas. By nightfall, the government forces had advanced approximately 12km eastward along the coast,halting for the night in the village of High Oakham. During the advance, 4 South Sea Island Defence Force personnel were injured and withdrawn back to Hempton Bay, while around 45 rebels were killed or captured. Captives were handed over to the Nova English government.
*'''February 22st''': [[Calbion]] deployed three destroyers: the IFS Reve, IFS Lampo and IFS Kafka to join the efforts of its allies. The intervention of the United Governorates on behalf of various pirate groups, and their attempts to extort and pressure local tribes in disrupting the anti-piracy effort caused great concern among the Calbain government, which perceived this as a threat to the trade routes of the [[Princely Exploration and Trading Company]] and Calbion's colonial ventures.

Aelfric Aescby (c. 975AJ – ), was the first King of Nova England to take an active role in the nation’s governance since the Great Disaster and the Evacuations. Born in 975AJ, he was the first son of Josephus II. In 1025AJ he was crowned king of Nova England and quickly took a series of actions to quell the instability within the nation. He was renowned for pushing his own policies and ideology, often known as ‘Faedertellus First’.

==Storming of the Witan==
In mid-1025AJ militias loyal to either the Nova English People’s Party or the National Reclamation Force had begun engaging in constantly escalating skirmishes. These clashes resulted in a series of bloody shootouts leaving wounded and dead militia men and civilians caught in the crossfire. It was at this time that King Aelfric I had been crowned King of Nova England after the quiet passing of his father.
Unlike his father who had spent his reign within the Redoubt bunker and away from domestic politics. King Aelfric had decided that the disunity of the nation had reached such a level that a new Great Disaster loomed. As such in an unprecedented move he organised the full mobilisation of the National Redoubt Guard and marched on Newcastle-Upon-Eastmoor. During the journey there he made several radio speeches calling all loyal People’s Militias to converge on the city and assist with the arrest of the ruling collation and their warring militiamen.

When the King’s forces reached the city many of the warring militiamen surrendered without any resistance. Though some did try and resist but quickly found themselves lynched by crowds of locals and hung from the street lamps or torn apart but the well drilled National Redoubt Guard.

By the end of the day the King’s forces stormed the Witan and arrest the party members of the NEPP and the NERF. King Aelfric announced the formal dissolution of the Witan and for new elections to be held at the soonest moment possible.

Speaking on national television that night the new King set out his vision for the future of the Faedertellus.

Nova English Witan Election 1025AJ

2020-10-31T12:38:51Z

Kingjosephus: Created page with "The '''Nova English Witan election of 1025AJ''' ''(31/10/20)'' was the second Witan election of the Kingdom of Nova England since the Great Disaster. All 65 s..."

The '''Nova English Witan election of 1025AJ''' ''(31/10/20)'' was the second Witan election of the [[Nova England|Kingdom of Nova England]] since the Great Disaster. All 65 seats of the Witan were up for election.

No seats however were made available for territories still under Military governorship, these being the Warring Islands, Britannic Home Islands and Port Moorland.

The election was contested by the five registered political parties and independent candidates within the thirteen wards.

==Background==

The 1025AJ elections followed the turbulent period of the [[Decade of The Langsaex]]. Previous elections were delayed and cancelled by the then ruling coalition who sited that the focus of the people was to be on combating the [[CNUT]] insurgency. Eventually as the events of that period led to splits between the coalition government and their respective militias skirmishing on the streets of [[Newcastle-Upon-Eastmoor]]. The newly crowned [[King Aelfric I]], gathered the forces of the [[National Redoubt Garrison]] and loyalist [[People's Militia|People’s Militias]] and stormed the city. Most of the battling parties surrendered to the monarch’s army and those that resisted were slain either by local residents emboldened by the King’s actions or by the King’s solders. After the Provisional Leaders of the National Reclamation Force and the Nova English Nationalist Party were both arrested, King Aelfric I made the first national broadcast by a Nova English monarch since the Great Disaster. He promised a return to greatness for the Faedetellus that must first be served by the election of a new Witan.

==Results==

The election resulted in an overwhelming victory for the [[Nova English Royalist Party]] over the incumbent coalition of the [[National Reclamation Force]] and the [[Nova English Nationalist Party]]. Leader of the Nova English Royalist Party Randal Kilchester was announced as Witan Chief, with his fellow party members Ulfrid Carter and Winelac Sargent becoming Chiefs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Ministry of Defence.

The '''Decade of the Langsaex''' refers to a series of conflicts between the [[Nova England|Kingdom of Nova England]] and the [[CNUT|Terrorist group CNUT]] during the period between 1010AJ and 1020AJ. Which eventually led to the total extermination of CNUT’s members and supporters. During this period as the conflict worsened the Nova English government withdrew from the international stage and enforced a blackout of all media leaving the country. Some critics from outside the Faedertellus have accused Nova England of using this media suppression to enact a number of genocidal war crimes. While the Nova English Witan has stood by its justification that it was required to stop the spread of terrorist propaganda.

==Background==

Nova England had been engaged in an on-off conflict with the supporters and operatives of CNUT since its inception as a Xeno rights group in the 930sAJ. After the Great Disaster, it was thought that the group had largely disbanded as its members left the former Nova English territories and migrated to other regions. Many of them found their way into places of learning or established their own institutes where they continued to preach their Anarcho-Communist ideology. However when the Faedertellus was reformed under the Leadership of King Josephus III, these aged ideologues recommitted to their ideological war against Nova England. The interactions between the re-established Nova English government & CNUT were marked by a number of small-scale skirmishes ranging from bombings to the stirring up of penal battalions. During the [[Operation Claensian-Fyr|War against the White Plague]] these skirmishes began to escalate as the [[Nova English Armed Forces]] pushed out of the sovereign territories in their effort to create bufferzones in the Green. This culminated with the Dewsbury Incident and the beginning of the Decade of the Langsaex.

==Opening of Hostilities==
===Dewsbury Incident===
On the 6th Feormmonaþ (13) 1010AJ the Deputy Chairwoman of the [[National Health Institute]] Asulf Sawyer made a speech to local NHI Sanitation teams, border units of the [[National Police Force]] and representatives of the Dewsbury [[People's Militia]] to thank them for their services during the National Quarantine. At 1730 at rented 7.5t lorry broke through the security barricades and detonated a large quantity of ANFO based explosives. The resulting explosion caused much of the venue to collapse and led to the deaths of 75 men and women including the Deputy Chief of the NHI and Captain Marcus Rock the son of the then Witan Chief Alhhere Rock who had been in attendance as a representative of the [[Nova English Armed Forces]].
Shortly after the bombing, CNUT released a statement to the internet claiming responsibility in revenge for the actions of the NHI during [[Operation Claensian-Fyr]]. Witan Chief Alhhere Rock responded in a nationwide address promising to avenge his son and all those who died in the bombings with righteous fury and God’s divine judgement.

===Burning of The Streatham-Park Autonomous Zone===
[[File:SPAZ_01.png|300px|thumb|right|[[Port Neil News]] Coverage of the Event]]
Following the Dewsbury Incident the Witan authorised an immediate retaliation strike on CNUT as a show of strength. The target in question was the town of Steatham-Park, a long abandoned town from the former Provincia of Southern Burwood which for several decades had been abandoned to the lawless Green. The town in question had been occupied by a number of CNUT cells who had taken to naming their newly founded anarcho-commune the Streatham-Park Autonomous Zone or SPAZ for brevity.

At 0430 four days following the Dewsbury Incident elements of the NHI Sanitation Squads backed up by elements of the [[Nova English Light Infantry|Light Infantry]] surrounded the settlement. Once these units reached their positions the attack commenced with an initial mortar bombardment of White Phosphorus. Shortly afterwards NHI Sanitation Teams entered the kill zone mounted in [[LandFara Grendel|Grendels]] modified with large fuel reservoirs and flamethrowers. These units proceeded to incinerate and execute all those within SPAZ, with the exception of some of the CNUT local leadership who were taken into the custody of the [[Special Operations Executive|SOE]] for interrogation before later execution.

The attack for the most part was broadcast live across state run broadcasters, with rolling coverage following featuring pundits, devils advocates and judges from the [[National Police Force|Office of Court Proceedings]] confirming the legality of the attack under Section 9 of the Terrorism Act. This act of publically broadcast retaliation lifted public moral within Nova England, with the additional benefit of eliminating an estimated 345 terrorists close to the sovereign borders.

==Escalation of Hostilities==

===Battle of Hwitesands===
With the destruction of SPAZ, hostilities between the government and CNUT cooled down for the rest of 1010AJ. However in mid-1011AJ this relative period of calm was shattered by the colloquially named Battle of Hwitesands.

On the 11th Saexmonaþ (7) 1011AJ the picturesque coastal village of Hwitesands was hosting its bi-annual Fréo-Fight. Separate to the ale-drinking and casual fighting a battalion of Penal Labourers were at work strengthening coastal flood defences. At around 16:14 during the height of a particularly boisterous bout, a cell of CNUT operatives ambushed the Penal Battalion’s escort and began arming the prison labourers with an assortment of improvised weapons amid calls to overthrow their oppressors.

A large majority of the penal workers immediately scattered into the countryside much to the bewilderment of the CNUT commissars. While those remaining marched towards the village green where the Fréo-Fight was taking place. The locals first became aware of the threat as scuffles began to breakout amongst the outskirts of the crowd. As they were roused from their drunken revelries they began immediately fighting back with whatever was to hand. Pint glasses, chairs, cudgels and fists were used by the locals in brutal hand to hand combat with the penal labourers. As the tide began to turn against the would be revolutionaries the CNUT operatives fired into the masses with sub-machine guns killing and injuring both penal labourers and locals with no regard before fleeing.

{{Quote|text='' ‘Yeah we thought it was just a few lads that couldn’t handle their ale but when we noticed that all those bastards were in their prison grays [Gray Overalls – Standard Issue to all Penal Labourers], everyone got involved in keeping the filthy fuckers away from the kids. It was chaos! Bottles of ale sailed across the air, I managed to smack one of them across the face with the ringside bell and I kid you not! I saw Father Aelfhun throw the ceremonial spear straight into one of them!’ ''|sign=Mr Turec Carrin|source=Excerpt from the Hwitesands Observer.}}

During their attempted escape they were gunned down by a local People’s Militia responding to the outbreak of violence. By the end of the day around 92 civilians had died with 247 wounded. Of the penal labourers 230 died during the battle, with a further 140 executed and another 359 recaptured from the countryside and transferred to other Penal battalions.

The attack on a sleepy village’s local festivities marked the beginning of CNUT’s new offensive campaign.

===1011AJ Saboteur Campaign===

After the failure at the Battle of Hwitesands, CNUT changed tact and began a campaign of sabotage against the national infrastructure of Nova England. These acts ranged from small nuisances such as spreading tire poppers on major roads to larger threats like the bombings of power stations.

Notable acts of sabotage in the period include;
*''Bombing of Hempholme Hydroelectric Power Station''
*''Arson of Port Neil Transmitting Station''
*''Destruction of Rail Track on the Valleys Mainline''
*''Attempted sinking of barge in Port Neil’s commercial harbour''

These acts of sabotage were carried out by small cells and lone wolfs often using minimal tools and planning to evade detection. As the campaign intensified, security was increased across the board with local People’s Militia units increasingly filling the gap left by conventional forces.

===Assassination of Ceolfrid Key===

Ceolfrid Key was a university lecturer at the University of St John in West Grinstead, New Sussex. On the 19th of Bordweall (2) 1012AJ Nova English Military intelligence were tipped off that he had been helping to recruit foreign students to CNUT thanks to their less stringent border restrictions between New Sussex and Nova England.

Following a period of surveillance these suspicions were proven to be true. The Ministry of Defence immediately authorised the SOE to undertake a capture or kill operation. On the 4th of Heorþmonaþ (6) 1012AJ as Ceolfrid was collecting his morning coffee, a motorcycle pulled up beside him and according to witnesses the passenger on the bike pulled out a pistol and shot the lecturer several times before the bike sped off into the labyrinth of ancient streets.

Whilst the event was attributed to the Nova English government at the time be local media. It later turned out to have been the result of internal divisions between different factions of CNUT one of which had been led by the deceased lecturer.

Once these units reached their positions the attack commenced with an initial mortar bombardment of White Phosphorus. Shortly afterwards NHI Sanitation Teams entered the kill zone mounted in [[LandFara Grendel|Grendels]] modified with large fuel reservoirs and flamethrowers. These units proceeded to incinerate and execute all those within SPAZ, with the exception of some of the CNUT local leadership who were taken into the custody of the [[Special Operations Executive|SOE]] for interrogation before later execution.

The attack for the most part was broadcast live across state run broadcasters, with rolling coverage following featuring pundits, devils advocates and judges from the [[National Police Force|Office of Court Proceedings]] confirming the legality of the attack under Section 9 of the Terrorism Act. This act of publically broadcast retaliation lifted public moral within Nova England, with the additional benefit of eliminating an estimated 345 terrorists close to the sovereign borders.

==Escalation of Hostilities==

===Battle of Hwitesands===
With the destruction of SPAZ, hostilities between the government and CNUT cooled down for the rest of 1010AJ. However in mid-1011AJ this relative period of calm was shattered by the colloquially named Battle of Hwitesands.

On the 11th Saexmonaþ (7) 1011AJ the picturesque coastal village of Hwitesands was hosting its bi-annual Fréo-Fight. Separate to the ale-drinking and casual fighting a battalion of Penal Labourers were at work strengthening coastal flood defences. At around 16:14 during the height of a particularly boisterous bout, a cell of CNUT operatives ambushed the Penal Battalion’s escort and began arming the prison labourers with an assortment of improvised weapons amid calls to overthrow their oppressors.

A large majority of the penal workers immediately scattered into the countryside much to the bewilderment of the CNUT commissars. While those remaining marched towards the village green where the Fréo-Fight was taking place. The locals first became aware of the threat as scuffles began to breakout amongst the outskirts of the crowd. As they were roused from their drunken revelries they began immediately fighting back with whatever was to hand. Pint glasses, chairs, cudgels and fists were used by the locals in brutal hand to hand combat with the penal labourers. As the tide began to turn against the would be revolutionaries the CNUT operatives fired into the masses with sub-machine guns killing and injuring both penal labourers and locals with no regard before fleeing.

{{Quote|text='' ‘Yeah we thought it was just a few lads that couldn’t handle their ale but when we noticed that all those bastards were in their prison grays [Gray Overalls – Standard Issue to all Penal Labourers], everyone got involved in keeping the filthy fuckers away from the kids. It was chaos! Bottles of ale sailed across the air, I managed to smack one of them across the face with the ringside bell and I kid you not! I saw Father Aelfhun throw the ceremonial spear straight into one of them!’ ''|sign=Mr Turec Carrin|source=Excerpt from the Hwitesands Observer.}}

During their attempted escape they were gunned down by a local People’s Militia responding to the outbreak of violence. By the end of the day around 92 civilians had died with 247 wounded. Of the penal labourers 230 died during the battle, with a further 140 executed and another 359 recaptured from the countryside and transferred to other Penal battalions.

The attack on a sleepy village’s local festivities marked the beginning of CNUT’s new offensive campaign.

===1011AJ Saboteur Campaign===

After the failure at the Battle of Hwitesands, CNUT changed tact and began a campaign of sabotage against the national infrastructure of Nova England. These acts ranged from small nuisances such as spreading tire poppers on major roads to larger threats like the bombings of power stations.

Notable acts of sabotage in the period include;
*''Bombing of Hempholme Hydroelectric Power Station''
*''Arson of Port Neil Transmitting Station''
*''Destruction of Rail Track on the Valleys Mainline''
*''Attempted sinking of barge in Port Neil’s commercial harbour''

These acts of sabotage were carried out by small cells and lone wolfs often using minimal tools and planning to evade detection. As the campaign intensified, security was increased across the board with local People’s Militia units increasingly filling the gap left by conventional forces.

[[File:CNUT Logo.png|200px|thumb|left|Logo of CNUT]]

'''CNUT (Comrade Nicola’s Ultimate Truth)''' is a terrorist organisation composed of left-wing militants and other reprobates within North Eastern [[Keltia]]. The group first rose to prominence as a Xeno-Rights group in the Britannic Sandwich Islands during the ‘Blue Scare’ of the 930s(AJ). Following the execution of their leader Nicola Griffin after a botched attack against a member of the Witan, the group dispersed and continued their campaign against the government and the civilian population. It is widely believed that the group was behind the assassination of King Josephus II in 932AJ bringing forth the Great Disaster.

==Ideology==

CNUT generally follows left-wing anarchist ideals with a view to protecting and enshrining the rights and liberties of all non-human species who they believe to be superior to humanity. However it has been known for their core-beliefs to change and shift to suit the global political climate in attempts to garner funding and support from foreign partners. In 24/05/995AJ an amendment was passed to the Anti-Terror Act which included the addition of CNUT to the list of Prescribed Terror Groups.

==Activities==

CNUT have been involved in a number of activities since their inception in 930AJ. These have included numerous small scale attacks including post bombs, arson, incitement of penal labour riots and spreading false propaganda. However some notable actions are listed below;

* Attempted assassination of anti-Xeno [[Nova English People’s Party|NENP]] Party Member in 931AJ. This botched attack resulted in three of the five CNUT members being killed in a firefight with responding officers from the National Police Force. The two surviving members, one of whom being the group’s leader Nicola Griffin were executed for Terrorist Activities following a short trial.

* In 1007AJ the group claimed responsibility for the car bomb that killed the then leader of the Nova English People’s Party.

* During the period of the National Quarantine the group was behind numerous attempts to smuggle White Plague stricken victims from the green into Nova England. In addition to attacking patrols of National Health Institute Sanitation Teams operating in the ‘Buffer Zone’.
