The Srbozemskan Civil War was a civil war fought between 4 March 2019 and 13 April 2019. It was triggered by a successful coup d'état plotted by Florian elements in government institutions, most importantly the police and military. Government forces, supported by Krasnocorian Armed Forces and two paramilitaries, Nídobhá's Wolves and 5th of October Army, clashed with United National Party of the Republic of Srbozemska led by Jack Lane, it's leader.

Background

The territory of Srbozemska and Krasnocorian province of Srbozemlje are described by many as the most politically unstable region on Micras (with exception of the Florian Republic itself). The region have faced two crises (Srbozemlje and Nohavland) and a war. In all occasions it was fought between Florians, who as a minority ruled over the majority of Serbs, who wanted bigger autonomy from Florian Republic. Florians, with the fact of accepting such conditions would result in eventual independence of so-called 'Floroserbian lands', installed a more authoritarian, oppresive government, which led to ethnic conflicts.
