The Yurtstead War (also known as the '''Riverford War''' among [[New Danzilona|Danzilonans]]) took place on the days of September 6 and 7, 2014 over a territorial dispute between the [[Grundeswald]]-aligned [[Gensokyo|Kingdom of Gensokyo]] and the [[New Danzilona#The Danzilonan Federation|Danzilonan Federation]] city-state of [[Riverford]] in [[Civcraft 2.0]]. It pitted the forces of the [[Holy Krautchan Empire]] and allied [[Carson (Civcraft)|Carsonites]] against the semi-state sponsored but ultimately autonomous [[Danzilonan Security Force]], which made it their duty to defend Riverford's land claims. The actual federal government of the DZF, however, did not want the conflict in the first place, seeking to denounce the DSF and bring a swift end to the fighting.
In an attempt to seize currently unused Riverford land for its own development, leaders from Gensokyo and the HKE built an empty neighbourhood within the borders of Riverford, which they called Yurtstead for the many yurts that they had built to occupy the area, prompting the military response from the DSF and sparking the conflict.
Though the DSF succeeded in defending Riverford's claims and securing Yurtstead, the conflict ended on September 7th with the DZF federal government ceding the land to Gensokyo and subsequently collapsing a week later.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/2frafg/peace_declared_the_federal_government_negotiates/ckc0b9s/</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2ge3t7/a_farewell/</ref><ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/2fqu8o/denouncing_the_actions_of_the_dsf/</ref>The war was largely the culmination of [[Grundeswald–New Danzilona relations|tensions between Grundeswald and New Danzilona]] that began forming several months prior.
