Mosquito War
The Mosquito War (Tierradorian: Gerráq le Mosqítan) was a conflict which lasted from November 13, 1965, to the Dalton Accords in Alstin on August 7, 1970. The conflict mostly took place in Instrenya, however spillovers in Malentina and parts of northern Tierrador occurred. It is considered to be the second of the four G.W.S. Wars and a pivotal point in Tierrador's participation in the Occidental Cold War. The war was fought between Tierrador, led by Pedro Gomez, and Istrenya, led by newly-implemented leader Woko'eli Koko. The war is widely considered as a Proxy war, and lasted four years and three months, officially ending in 1970, by ruling of the Dalton Accords. This war was one of the costliest and most negatively-influential wars in Tierradorian history, spawning several domestic movements by Tierradorian civilians.

The Mosquito War was believed to have been caused by the various conflicts of interests between the Gomez-led Tierrador and Koko-led Istrenya. Several attacks on farmers and small communities in midwestern Tierrador added on to the anti-Istrenyan sentiment that was rampant across Tierrador. More will be added later.
