Santa Magdalena Civil War

The Peacekeeping Mission in Santa Magdalena is a joint League of Free Nations and ECOSEAS peacekeeping force in the Constitutionalist Union of Santa Magdalena which was established on 18 May 2008. The operation was organized to protect vulnerable native populations in Santa Magdalena who had been victim to government-sponsored extrajudicial killings, enslavement and internal displacement. The mandate initially included the southwest region of Santa Magdalena, but was expanded in 2018 to include the bulk of eastern Santa Magdalena after an ECOSEAS monitor uncovered two death camps concealed in the Floresta de Deus rainforest.

The mission consists of separate ECOSEAS and League contingents. Initially, the ECOSEAS contingent consisted of Zahava. Meanwhile, the League contingent consisted of Airgialla and Akiteiwa. The Jinhang and Hosuman force represented both ECOSEAS and the League.
