The conflict is named for Oduria, the last capital city of the rump [[Equatorial_Ostiecia#Kingdom_of_Oustec|Kingdom of Oustec]]. The primary fighting involving Levantine forces centered around the Burgoignesc campaign around the city, popularizing the name in the Levantine press. During the early 20th century, the conflict was referred to as the "''Vallosi Latin Salvation War''" in [[Caphiria]], a name which gradually lost public use in favor of the international name for the war.

==== Siege of Igko ====
As an initial stage of its offensive, Burgundine forces attacked and blockaded the island of [[Eileada|Igko]], at the northern end of the [[Vallos#Capelranco Archipelago|Capelranco Archipelago]]. The second largest military port in Oustec, Igko resisted initial attacks and as a result was besieged by Fanerian naval forces operating in support of Burgundie. Igko remained besieged until October of 1859, but not without a breakout attempt in July in conjunction with a relief force in what became the Battle of Corubia. The Battle of Corubia was the second naval engagement to include {{Wp|Ironclad|ironclads}} by less than a month, with the armored ''Seba'' and ''Gwaeron'' proving instrumental in the resulting Occidental victory.

After the fall of Oduria and collapse of the remaining Oustec holdouts, a period of uncertainty existed in northern [[Vallos]]. Low level skirmishing between all three Occidental sides had occurred at the periphery of each nation's area of interest, and in all three countries there was some political appetite for a more extensive war to determine the fate of the entire former Oustec Kingdom. In order to prevent a general Occidental conflict, [[Kiravia]] intervened and offered itself as an arbitrator on 1 December [[1859]], threatening to otherwise involve itself to protect stability in the [[St. Brendan's Strait]] area. Diplomats from Urcea, Caphiria, and Burgundie traveled to Kiravia that December to begin peace negotiations.
