During the [[Second Great War]], Talionia was a primary battleground between the [[Levantia and Odoneru Treaty Association]] (LOTA) and [[Caphiria]] and its acquisition was the primary war goal of [[Caphiria]]. The early war period was largely inconclusive, but following the allied naval victory at the [[Battle of the Adonáire Strait]] Caphiria's ability to resupply [[Urlazio]] became significantly limited.

The early war period was largely inconclusive, but following the allied naval victory at the [[Battle of the Adonáire Strait]] Caphiria's ability to resupply [[Urlazio]] became significantly limited. The [[Royal and Imperial Army (Urcea)|Royal and Imperial Army]] made significant gains against Caphiria, occupying most of the island along with [[Cartadania]]n offensives from the west. Talionia was the site of the first {{wp|nuclear weapon}} detonation in history, as [[Caphiria]] dropped a weapon at the end of the [[Second Great War]] on major military depot and transportation hub - the city of Malavia - that was occupied by Urcean forces but still within Caphirian nominal territory. The nuclear detonation precipiated peace talks which ended the war. Large parts of Urlazio were returned, but a major piece of territory was ceded to [[Talionia]] at the end of the war, including the destroyed city of Malavia and its environs. These ad-hoc military bases dotting Talioinia were later rebuilt for permanent LOTA use during the Occidental Cold War, as the military and military families from Levantia and Cartadania became an important part of life in Talionia, and a cornerstone of the economy. As bases began to dot the countryside, agricultural developments gave way to a service-based economy aimed at accommodating the millions of soldiers stationed in Talionia throughout the Cold War. | ||
Upon the signing of the [[Assumption Accords]] in 2014, cession of the Ecinis peninsula and demilitarization of the southern half of Talionia and eastern portions of Caphirian Urlazio meant an end to the more than eighty years of military presence in Talionia, leading to dramatic changes in the economy. Despite this, many investors have expressed interest in the potential of the rapidly changing economy. Caphirian investors and visitors have become commonplace in Talionia since the time the Accords were signed, and analysts have speculated that Talionia may once again become a primary port of entry into Sarpedon and crossroads of the Occident. As part of the Accords, a free-trade area was created between Talionia and the Caphirian provinces of Urlazio. | Upon the signing of the [[Assumption Accords]] in 2014, cession of the Ecinis peninsula and demilitarization of the southern half of Talionia and eastern portions of Caphirian Urlazio meant an end to the more than eighty years of military presence in Talionia, leading to dramatic changes in the economy.
