Audonian ComIntern

Operation Kipling was a series of wars fought by a coalition of nations led by Burgundie, Urcea and Alstin against the Audonian ComIntern and various communist militias in Daria from 1966-1983. It diminished Burgundie's roles as a major player in global politics for the remainder of the 20th century, resulting in a societal shift that led to the end of a royal dynasty, but reinvested Burgundie in the destiny of western Audonia. It also, through war industry, launched some Middle seas region nations, firmly into the 20th century.

Background

Communism in Audonia goes back as far as in 1906 when Battganuuri philosopher Kass Gazisishir.
