The Farminan-Messian War is in fact the second war between Democratic Republic of Farmina and the Snyder Directorate of the Militia Enforced State. The factors leading up to the war were complex, but fighting finally broke out after an engagement between mercenaries in Farmina and the Messian navy. Although the war was not long, it ended with millions of dead, mainly Messian civilians. The war ended when the Militia Enforced State signed the Treaty of Trinity and the balance of power between the two nations was radically rewritten.

Background
Second Arandior War
Forty five years prior to the Farminan-Messian War, Farminan and Messian forces met in the Second Arandior War. The First Arandior War had seen Farmina annex north Arandior five years earlier, breaking the confidence of the Arandiorian people. In desperation, they turned to the Militia Enforced State for protection, strengthening ties to ensure that Farmina was not in a position to attack what remained of the People’s Republic of Arandior.
The Second Arandior War broke out when Farmina accused Arandior of smuggling weapons to separatists in northern Arandior. The Militia Enforced State quickly mobilized to fulfill its obligations. The war was widely marked by incompetence on both sides and for a long time remained a bloody draw (the Second Arandior war saw more military casualties than the Farminan-Messian war). Slowly a string of Farminan offensives gained momentum at great cost to both sides. The People’s Republic of Arandior surrendered to Farmina unconditionally and then the Militia Enforced State made a more respectable withdrawal from the war. Farmina combined the Territory of Northern Arandior, with the People’s Republic of Arandior to form the Province of Arandior.
