Modrovian-Seratofian Affair

The Modrovian-Seratofian Affair (Seratofian: Modrovijas-Sératofas Zjinggje, Seraheltian: Problema A Modrovia-Seratof) is an ethno-nationalist conflict in the Island of Sobreza that is still going on to this day. The conflict has been described as a, as many of the activities associated with war have subsided since the original invasion by Modrovian armed forces in the 1970s. The conflict also played a large role in the political developments back in mainland Seratof as the nationalist party took control of the setting in 1976. Although primarily located in the island, there have been many attacks, mostly on ethnic Seratofians and Seraheltians back on the mainland as targets by either side of the conflict. Currently, approximately 60% of the island is administered by Seratof, and 40% by Modrovia.

The conflict is mainly a politically and ethnically fueled. Outspoken critics of the then rule of the Seratofian People's Party was met with strong resistance from the party, and many of such critics were exiled into the island of Sobreza. Most that were exiled were ethnically Seraheltian, which demanded the removal of the country's dictator, Marijón Matlássa, from power. The island of Sobreza, which had lower population densities than mainland Seratof prior to the exiles, boasted a strong anti-Seratof Seraheltian population. Alleged human rights violations and the mistreatment of the exiled was met with a full-scale military invasion by Modrovia, under the premise of protecting Heltians abroad and maintaining human rights.

Many Seraheltians back in mainland Seratof, who lived under the right wing Seratofian People's Party, now had leveraging power against the central government with a foreign nation at the doorstep. Massive protests in the capital Azxara, as well as in some other major cities, gave birth to the 1984 Laplá's Bill, which dictated the limited powers of the president, and created the position of a prime minister, effectively shifting Seratof from a into a. However, in practice, Marijón Matlássa was still the main power in Seratof as the prime minister was selected by the parliament and nominated by Marijón Matlássa himself, which brought biased and unfair results.

After the fall of the Seratofian People's Party in 2006, the purpose of Modrovia in Sobreza was put into question, as the newly elected government sought to reconnect ties with the long marginalized Seraheltian group with the ethnic Seratofians, and pursued a policy of free speech, even against the government.

More than 5,000 people were killed as a result of the invasion and subsequent terror attacks back in mainland Seratof and even some in Modrovia. The number of terror attacks in mainland Seratof has significantly decreased since 2006, yet are still sporadic as to one may expect to see an attack once every year.
