Aftermath

Geopolitical response

 Koré'hetanùa

Stateholder Nójana Hèùriqı met with advisors and stakeholders after the nuclear detonation in Zakan Rot as to how to best address the situation. The Hèùriqı administration had previously instituted a maritime exclusion zone for all commercial maritime traffic surrounding Varshan and had met with Varshani leaders in the capital of Anzo to discuss diplomatic relations between the two states. However, as soon as evidence was released of the Varshan army detonating the nuclear warhead and killing its own civilians Koré'hetanùa immediately cut all ties with Varshan and declared war. Though previously an outspoken advocate for reducing hostilities in Varshan, Koré'hetanùa is now a member state of the alliance against Varshan. Three naval task forces, Task Force Cartesia (operating out of Anta Carda), Task Force Orixtal (operating out of Seváronsa), and Task Force Coscivian Northwest (operating out of Porfiria) were joined into the Varshan Battle Fleet for the duration of the war. Task Forces Cartesia and Orixtal were tasked with aiding in the naval blockade of Varshan while Task Force Coscivian Northwest was tasked with engaging Varshani aerial and naval combatants in the Seneca Isles with Urcean units.
