The Shiro-Benacian Cold War was a period of significant geopolitical tension between the Imperial Republic of Shireroth and the Benacian Union, two major powers within the Raspur Pact. This period of strained relations lasted for several years and was characterized by a series of political, economic, and military confrontations between the two nations.

One of the key factors contributing to the escalation of tensions was the election of anti-Pact politicians during the 1717 Shirerithian general elections, after which relations between the two nations kept detoriating as Shireroth began more openly criticizing Benacian dominance in the Pact and parts of its own nation. It eventually ended in the eruption of a massive, total war: the Shiro-Benacian War.
