Operation Verdant Reach is a military operation initiated by the Forces de Sécurité Oportiennes with the aim to invade and seize a large swath of territory belonging to the unconquered Euran Green. The operation commenced on 15.IX.1729 AN, under the command of General Armand Desjardins.
Background
As the value and scarcity of Alexandrium became known in 1729 AN, the Oportian government, supported by Nouvelle Alexandrie and Natopia, initiated Operation Verdant Reach to secure rumored massive Alexandrium deposits in the Euran Green territories in southeastern Eura. The aim was to enrich the nation and safeguard these resources from potential exploitation by the Confederacy of the Dispossessed, Azad Eura, or other regional enemy factions or interests.
Timeline
- 5.XI.1729: Reports of Alexandrium's high value and scarcity reach the Confederacy of the Dispossessed, stirring interest among its ranks in Eura. The potential wealth from Alexandrium deposits in Zinjibar and in other parts of Suren Confederacy (the Euran Green) leads to a resurgence of efforts by Dispossessed veterans of the Norasht campaign to regain control of the strategic port, viewing it as a critical asset for funding their operations.
- 10.XI.1729: Intelligence briefings in Nouvelle Alexandrie and the Suren Confederacy reveal that underground criminal syndicates, associated with the Confederacy of the Dispossessed, begin scouting for Alexandrium deposits in the war-torn regions of Norasht Ostan, particularly around the capital, which had been heavily impacted during the Babkhan Holocaust. This movement indicates a growing interest in exploiting Alexandrium for illicit gains, highlighting the element's dual potential for both societal advancement and as a catalyst for conflict.
- 15.IX.1729: Oportia, encouraged by Nouvelle Alexandrie and Natopia, initiates Operation Verdant Reach.
