The Kingdom of Charlemagne Land had just arrived in New Scandinavia, when they found out that the land they had claimed was already claimed by another state, the United Socialist States of Linthopia.
The tow states negotiated, but it all ended when the Linthopian ambassador punched king Charlemagne himself in the face! The King ordered the ambassador to be put to prison, and that waqr was to be declared.

Linthopia brought its ally Lobardian Islands into the war, and started mobilizing along the Charlemagnian border.

At the moment, the following nuymber of forces are in the border area:
Charlemangia:
20 "odrinary" infantry divison
5 engineer brigades
2 tank divisons (The Charlemagnian native tank Ymnir Mk 2)
And 200 bombers and 150 fighter planes within range of Linthopian troops, and reinforcements pending.

Linthopia:
10 infrantry divisions
5 artillery brigades
4 engineer brigades
1 anti-air craft brigade
1 tank divison (a mix of the native Warlock Mk 1 and imported Lobardian Tiger Fish tanks).
As well as 50 bombers and 45 fighters within range of the border.
Reinforcements are on its way, and the Linthopian troops will double by tomorrow.

Lobardian Islands:
2 infantry divisons
1 anti-tank brigade
These troops are fighting under Linthopian flag, but 3 divisions of tanks (Tiger Fish mk 1) will arrive tomorrow, and fight for Lobardia.
