Ecoral Toll War

Ecoral Toll War
The Ecoral Toll War, also known as the First Ecoral-Eduran War, was a war between the Eduran-Renesian alliance (also known as the Grand Alliance) against Ecoralia that started on May 18th 1871 with an official declaration of war after Ecoralia declined Eduran-Renesian demand until November 11th 1873 with the signing of Treaty of Roodham. The war was mainly caused by years of accumulated grievances that Edury and Renesia had against Ecoralia, with the final straw being the sudden increase of the Ecoral toll.

The Grand Alliance war plan was a three-way simultaneous attack from sea and land, one coming from Renesia, another coming from Edury, and a combined to occupy the canal and threaten Ecoralia's capital. At the start of the war, the Grand Alliance had a series of quick and swift battles overwhelming Ecoral forces, although the overconfidence of the Grand Alliance officers and generals gave Ecoralia forces a chance to recuperate and gather their armies which dragged the war until 1873. The war ended after a failed Ecoral counter-attack in Roodham as a final effort to break the Grand Alliance's hold on the canal but met with a devastating defeat after a series of ambushes and the arrival of Eduran reinforcement from the south, effectively cutting their supply lines and retreat routes.

The Treaty of Roodham gave Eduran and Renesian ships a toll-free passage through the canal and being paid to both Edury and Renesia, which is worth Ꝟ50 billion. Moreover, all are released from both sides, and a temporary Kanalinspektionskommission (abbreviated to KIK) is created with Ecoral, Eduran and Renesian representatives to oversee the canal and uphold the Treaty of Roodham.
