Renesia in the Second World War

The initial history of Renesia during the Second World War was one of a stance until 9 January 1941 when it officially joined the Alliance powers, which lasted until the end of Renesian civil war on 8 March 1942, wherein Renesia officially joined the Concert powers until the end of the war. Renesia's contribution to the Alliance during its civil war was minimalist at best, although after the civil war and with Galvian support they managed to advance until Casvelt before reaching a deadlock.

Neutrality (1940-1941)
Prince Fredrick III had every intention to join the war early to annex lands from Ecoraland. However, as Prince Fredrick III proposed his plan to the Royal Chamber, he was met with heavy opposition from his ministers, which caused a significant delay in the procession. Furthermore, the Noble's Chamber barely managed to avoid ratifying the decision leading to a result of 235 to 230; this led to animosity between Prince Fredrick III and the Lord-Protector Emeric Altmark.

The Prince ignored the Noble's Chamber decision and ordered Marshal Mathis Gormon and Chancellor Hraban Schulte to begin national mobilization and prepare for the war; this caused a general uproar among the population, especially people near the Renesian-Ecoralander border. Meanwhile, Prince Fredrick III was in contact with Salia to inform Renesian's intention and seek naval support for Operation Kees Fall.

Lord-Protector Emeric did not sit idle and sought support from fellow nobles and governors. Moreover, he was able to delay manufacturing ammunition, weapons, and supply from companies owned by Raithaslach province until they were requisitioned by Prince Fredrick III's orders.

Operation Kees Fall
Operation Kees Fall is a joint operation that was supposed to capture the capital of Ecoraland in a coordinated with the Salian navy. The main aim of the operation is to force Ecoraland to as early as possible and threaten the East Alutra's Concert nations flanks through land, which also has the added benefit of being able to support Tretu and Fend nationalists more effectively. However, the operation fell through when the Renesian Civil War of 1941 started. Some of the Salian navy that was assigned to the joint operation instead were redirected to help Renesia in their civil war.

Operation Kees Fall was divided into three phases. The first phase began on 9th January at 4 am, which consisted of the 1st Royal army leading the invasion from Festungsstadt supported by three alongside 1st United Ulmun corp and 2nd Loriace mechanized infantry division invading from Erberg and keeping close to the coast and the Renesian navy, while the 3rd Ragner Corp followed behind the 1st Royal army maintaining a safe distance to protect the supply lines and garrison occupied territories.

The second phase began on the 11th at 6 am which consisted of the 2nd Royal army advancing from Festungsstadt to join up with the 1st Royal army alongside {2 Armored Brigade and 1 Motorized Division} and see the deployment of the majority of Renesian Air force. Although the second was interrupted by the {Altmark Mountain Brigade}'s attack at 5 am, which signified the start of the civil war.

The third and final phase would have started on the 13th at 6 am but was halted due to the civil war. Not much is known about the third phase except that Renesia were expecting the arrival of the Salian navy near Monstad.

Renesian civil war
The civil war started on the 11th when {Altmark Mountain Brigade} attacked {Motorized Division} on the Battle of Landten fields, it was a decisive Altmarkian victory which enabled Altmark to threaten the Renesian armies' rear and supply lines jeopardising the entirety of operation Kees fall. The Altmarkian victory in Landten fields encouraged other pro-Ecoralander nobles and governors to join Altmark's side in the civil war, this lead the 1st Royal army to be recalled back into Renesia.

The Rabe Treaty
In desperation, Prince Fredrick III decided to request help from Galvia in exchange for a permanent military port in Renesia and on the 3rd of April 1941 The Rabe Treaty was signed. With fresh Galvian troops arriving the Loyalist forces gained the upper hand and prepared a counter-attack to defeat the Eastern and Ecoralander forces.

A coordinated strike from Loyalist-Galvian forces against Altmark province managed to overwhelm Lord-Protector Emeric and capture him, leaving the Eastern forces leaderless and fragmented.

Renesian civil war aftermath
Rebel provinces were weakened while loyalist provinces were strengthened, with no punishment to individuals until after the war with the chance to be forgiven based on contribution in the war.

Alliance side (8 March 1942 - 1945)
After the civil war Salia sent [Name] to act as a to coordinate with the rest of the alliance and to advise the Galvian-Renesian army. Although, after [Name]'s arrival Renesia hastily provided temporary guards to protect him. On (Date) 1942, GEFR.Gottlieb a guard that was assigned to protect [Name] killed him in hopes to worsen Renesian-Salian relationship and force Renesia out of the war, he was promptly and unceremoniously executed the next day by the Renesian military. Although, the relationship between the two nations were worsened both continued to be on the same side of the war.

The Galvian-Renesian army managed to break through the Ecoralander army and occupied Westenkil and some of Tweestromen, but as the Galvian-Renesian army moved towards Casvelt a fierce Concert counter-attack managed to push the Galvian-Renesian army back and forcing both forces to be at a deadlock.

Results and aftermath
Renesia did not acquire any territories from Ecoraland
