The Decade of the Langsaex refers to a series of conflicts between the Kingdom of Nova England and the 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 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.
