Line 35 ⟶ 46:
On January 4, 2023, about 6 months after the foundation of Imbolc, Cortesian Interior MInister [[CommradePotatoe]] discovered this official discrepancy between the Danzilonan version of the border and their own. After being told of this conflict, outraged Danzilonan Defence Minister [[Des23]] ordered troops to secure Imbolc the following day.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/103ny0g/after_6_months_of_illegal_cortesian_occupation/</ref>
===
Upon learning of Danzilona's invasion of Imbolc, CommradePotatoe also sent Cortesian troops to the border to attempt a counterattack against Danzilonan tanks with a tank of their own.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/103oc60/crisis_in_cortesias_southern_frontier/</ref> Luckily for the Danzilonans, they recieved a decisive shipment of tanks from [[Nara]], which consisted of tanks that were able to maneuver freely and protect the driver. The Cortesian tank, on the other hand, was much smaller, restricted to railroad tracks, and left the driver completely exposed. Because of this shortfall, Danzilonan troops disabled the Cortesian tank and decisively stopped their counterattack. Both sides then took up a defensive position and built a line of trenches that stretched the entire length of the forest valley, resulting in a stalement and turning most of Imbolc into a No Man's Land.
Local [[Ranubism|Ranubite]] zealots independently took up arms in support of their home nation and blocked off the FDR-CDM Northern Line, preventing the Cortesian troops from receiving supplies to the front via rail.<ref><nowiki>https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/952401079788793869/1060644467868184596/2023-01-05_14.29.20.png</nowiki></ref>
=== Danzilonan Advancement and Cortesian Reinforcements ===
During the second day of the battle, the Danzilonan tanks were able to bust through the first line of Cortesian defences, destroying an artillery gun and an anti-tank gun in the process. The Cortesian trenches were conquered, moving the line of contact northward.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/10545mu/day_2_of_the_battle_of_imbolc_has_seen_great/</ref> This day also marked the first time the Danzilonan Air Force was deployed on [[CivMC]]. In response, the Cortesians quickly fielded their own, brand new tanks to stop further Danzilonan advancement, creating a stalemate once again<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/CivMC/comments/105f8th/heroic_cortesian_liberators_counter_the_devilish/</ref>

=== Naval Supremacy and Danzilonan Victory ===
On January 10, the navy of [[Venne (CivMC)|Venne]] sent a warship to flank the Cortesian reinforcements, opening up a sea route between Imbolc and the Cortesian capital of Santiago. Des23 invaded and conquered the capital and called upon CDM to surrender.
