2nd L'Doufean War of Independence

The 2nd L'Doufean War of Independence is an ongoing war in Sheaman which started in 2009 after the Lord of Greater Lady Duffs declared independence from Sheaman and the current President Lethabo Doema declared war on Greater Lady Duffs. The Independence war was sparked due to an enormous cultural and religious difference between Sheamans and L'Doufeans with 92% L'Doufeans being Christians since the great Immigration of Lady Duffs from the late 1700s to the early 1800s. The immigration crisis was caused by the British fearing a rise in Maxifolianism made an attempt to send a massive Protestant population over to many parts of the island but mostly Greater Lady Duffs.

The war is currently in a stalemate position but has a slight favour on the side of the l'dame National Army that has generally survived for many reasons including Japanese weapons being supplied and great tactics and strategy.

2009-2012
On the 3rd of March 2009 current Lord of Greater Lady Duffs Caddam Abdul Abraham proclaimed that Greater Lady Duffs was an Independent state from Sheaman and that from now on laws will be governed by the Greater Lady Duffs government. After the declaration of Independence a constitution was wrote on the 8th of March 2009 tha proclaimed independence and a few principles of an Independent government including changing the name of the self-proclaimed country to the "Republic of l'dame" after Lord Caddam believed that the country needed to embrace its culture.

On the 19th of March 2009 Lethabo Doema announced to the nation of Sheaman and l'dame by saying "After much consideration i have decided that this country is going to war with the separatist state of Greater Lady Duffs, we are going to war with the south, thank you and please remember that it's one island, one nation."

After the declaration of war the l'dame National Army prepared for war by increasing military funding and placing their first, second and third division up to the border. The Sheaman National Army deployed 5 divisions to the southern border with the advice of the President who is in charge of defence and military. Lethabo Doema assigned older Military officers and generals with much experience in mountainous regions to combat the mountains in the south.

In April the Japanese who had always had a grudge against Sheaman sent equipment to l'dame and even helped in training programs in the l'dame National Army which was greatly accepted by Lord Caddam. Elias Fooscheberg

the first offensive was in May 2009 when the 1st and 2nd Sheaman Divisions attacked the trekniam Region in the north-west (which is displayed below) and the Sheaman Army was pretty successful against the unprepared l'dame Nation Army which only had one division to protect themselves and after the battle ended in December 2009 the division was wounded and retreated further south. Throughout 2010 small skirmishes were made by both sides and eventually the Sheaman Army started to push into the mid north region but came to a halt around November 2010.

In February 2011 Lord Caddam made his 2nd constitutional amendment by forcing all MPs to resign and that MPs from now on would be appointed by the Lord (Lord Caddam). His constitution came into effect in May 2011 and all MPs were officially deposed. few people spoke out against Lord Caddam's new constitution but few brave individuals including Elias Fooscheberg who was a Christian Liberal politician who worked hand in hand with his American counterpart Jonathan K. Cooper who was also a Christian Liberal politician. Elias Foscheberg had protested the decision to declare independence and was an advocate of Unionism and Liberal politics. He was briefly arrested in 2010 for debating border security when they refused to let a visitor from Lower Andrulasias return to their state.

In August 2011 the Sheaman government stated that they would protect both Elias Foscheberg and Jonathon K. Cooper from being arrested or killed and that he was a friend of the state.

In September 2011 the L'dame National Army sent its 1st and 2nd division to the north-west region and both of the divisions were ordered to attack the Sheaman Army and after a few months of fighting the L'dame National Army made their first push in the war and led to the 1st and 2nd Division of the Sheaman Army to retreat up to the Schlatizvowner region. The offensive would end in June 2012 with a victory for the LNA (L'dame National Army) and soon a further offensive would continue the push north.
