The Albion affair was an international incident that occurred on 15 October 2021 during the Final War of the Deluge. Early on the morning of 15 October, detachments of the militaries of both Urcea and Kiravia arrived on the shores of Titechaxha and subsequently secured key government and economic sites in that country. As a result, Titechaxha announced that they would be ending trade with Varshan immediately. It also retroactively gave approval and invitation to the forces from both countries. The event was met with outrage across Crona and elsewhere who referred to it as "brazen gunboat diplomacy", though efforts to investigate the affair in the League of Nations failed.
Background
The Final War of the Deluge began in late 2020 and by 2021 involved most major global powers, including Varshan. In the summer of 2021, the allied powers of Urcea, Kiravia, and Alstin announced a total economic embargo and physical naval blockade of Varshan. While the embargo received compliance from most major countries and Varshan neighbors, Titechaxha relied on trade with Varshan and subsequently refused to participate. Their refusal created what Urcean Procurator Bridget Farrell later called a "gaping back door" in the embargo and blockade. Leaders in Varshan soon designated the Titechaxha as their new primary port of import and export.
Throughout late summer 2021, Urcea and Kiravia made numerous diplomatic attempts to get the two countries to close trade with Varshan. Titechaxha refused and negotiations concluded on 2 October.

In the immediate aftermath of the closure of trade with Varshan, Titechaxha entered into a major economic crisis. The sudden end of all trade with their largest trading partners lead to a major wave of unemployment, exacerbated by the ongoing refugee crisis.
