The Arzstotskia War (also known by various other names) was fought between Arzstoskia and the Vespuch Republic from February to October 1993. Starting with the invasion of the Vespuch Republic on 1 February, the tide of the war dramtically changed after an international military coalition led by the United States began military support of the V.R. in late August. Arzstostkia was mainly supported by Cuba, among a few other socialist states. The conflict ended with the Brasilia Peace Accords on 13 October, shortly after the Fall of Svronsty.
