"And I will make thee unto this people a fenced brasen wall: and they shall fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee: for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the Lord Cato."

—Ancient Catologian scripture

Operation Brasen Wall is a military defensive operation by the military forces of the Kasterburg Republic in responce to the expansion of the Republic of Inner Benacia. It was exercised in late 1660 AN to counter the percieved threat of the Laqi insurgency within the RIB. Laqi tribes, especially in Eastern Kasterburg, have been regarded as enemy of the Kasterburger people ever since the period of settlement and the birth of the Republic. The possibility of these tribes being supported by an official state worried the Consistory.

Although in dispute with the refractory clans of the region, the Republic of Inner Benacia considered the move on the part of the Kasterburger Republic to be a hostile incursion into their sphere of influence. Moreover, for the Yehudi and Laqi alike, the move was uncomfortably reminiscent of the incursions of the Baerdemans Column which paved the way for the loss of Nackholm to the Imperials.
