Within the Coalition, an anti-Zokesian alliance is formed between Vocavium, Atlas, North Grestin, and the HKA. Anti-Zokesian sentiment had been growing around the world as a result of the extreme policies of the Grail regime; the alliance now intervened to end the ongoing Zokesian genocide and topple that regime, commencing an air and naval campaign which became known as the Zokesian blockade, with the eventual goal of launching a ground invasion of Zokesia. Zokesia's NEOCON partners do not intervene, but maintain a stance of benevolent neutrality towards the embattled nation.
December - The Zokesian Phosphor fleet is interned by the neutral Imperium at the port of the island of Korfu. In retaliation for the Zokesian bombardment of Moho, North Grestin's Battlefleet Kerbol conducts a missile bombardment of the small island from orbit, destroying the fleet and inflicting heavy damage on the island.

February - Tensions mount between the nations of NEOCON and the non - NEOCON nations of the CSD in the aftermath of the Korfu strikes, as the anti-Zokesian coalition refuses to repudiate Grestin's actions. Tekkia's redirection of an asteroid strike originally intended for and militarily neutral Tekkia towards Zokesia proved to be the final straw which convinced the nations of NEOCON to intervene on Zokesia's behalf, beginning the Second Great Kerbin War, otherwise known as the Kolus War, or the Great Crusade.
2092
The Second Great Kerbin War ends indecisively. The last active front of the conflict, the Imperium landing in Westray, ends with a Kroman-Imperial ceasefire. However, the consequences of the war are far - reaching, as in its wake, the three most important super-national organisations on Kerbin - the CSD, World Assembly, and NEOCON - are all dissolved.
In the course of the Great Crusade, the government of New Grestin re-establishes control over most of its Kafrican territory in a countercoup against the North Grestin Confederacy. The remnants of the North Grestin Confederacy flee off-world, establishing the Valorian Confederation.
