	After diplomatic options were exhausted, the Konsortium launched an attack in 22,006 CE, and after a series of intense fighting in the Tarantula Nebula region of the galaxy was repelled and held back for three years. However, the Konsortium enjoyed a significant superiority in industrial capability and hence was able to deploy more vessels, eventually overpowering the coalition after three years, annihilating the majority of their navy and triggering its collapse. Very little large-scale organized resistance took place after the offensive before the capitulation of most major coalition members. Few other nations intervened in the conflict as they saw little point in it.

	==Background==		==Background==
	Being the fourth largest galaxy in the area, the Ouranir Galaxy was a desirable place to control. It was very close to ~~the~~ Via Aylathiya as well as rich in many materials the Konsortium desired. The [[Piray]] of the Piray Empire and the [[Interstellar Systems of Ysau]] were the two major nations within the Ouranir Galaxy. The [[Confederacy of Borealis\|CoB]] federal government approved this expansion while disregarding both species' wishes. These two small civilizations were unable to stand up against the might of the Yohjan Confederacy, and soon both fell.

These two small civilizations were unable to stand up against the might of the Yohjan Confederacy, and soon both fell.

	Under Confederate control, the native races of the Ouranir Galaxy maintained significant political influence unlike what is seen in the rest of ~~the~~ Via Aylathiya where human migrations and political power generally sidelined them. The galaxy was administered by the Confederacy as a subdivision within ~~the~~ Via Aylathiya, and yet their control there were largely nominal. The Confederate leaders on Thalsiedeln were generally more concerned with affairs of the core regions of the galaxy (particularly regions near to Thalsiedeln), or matters concerning interstate tensions at the far frontier galaxies. Hence, the seat of the Confederate governance Ventemir, even when the Confederate only controlled a small proportion of Ventemir, and power was heavily delegated in the Ouranir Galaxy. The Ysau in particular controlled a significant portion of their old empire in all but name, further expanded with the more advanced colonization technologies originating from the humans.

	The [[Ysau]], under the Interstellar Systems, were by a large margin the most powerful non-human species in the Ouranir Galaxy, and were considered by both their allies and enemies to be the leader of the Konsortium's opposition. Several other major spacefaring interstellar species - such as the [[Piray]]ans - which had previously submitted to the Confederacy allied themselves with the Ysau. This alliance comprised perhaps four-fifths of the Ouranir Galaxy's non-human population and ninety percent of the Ouranir Galaxy's non-human military power. A number of polities that had bad blood with the Ysau instead joined the Confederacy. Additionally, a number of independent human polities or colonies preferred to remain independent from the Confederacy, and in many occasions fought alongside the Ysau against the Konsortium. Estimates suggest that around one-sixths of the Ouranir Galaxy's human population fell under this category.

	Around one-third of the Ouranir Galaxy's human population opted to remain neutral in the conflict, leaving the last fifty percent of humans immediately joining the Konsortium and agreeing to provide support to the potential war effort. The size of the Konsortium's expedition in the Ouranir Galaxy varied by time, from a full galactic fleet at the start of the invasion to barely enough personnel to garrison forward outposts during certain periods of the conflict. Regardless, aside from the aforementioned occasions when the Konsortium expedition had been redirected elsewhere and at the late stages of the conflict, the bulk of the Konsortium's force in the Ouranir Galaxy throughout the conflict were sent in from ~~the~~ Via Aylathiya. A number of comparatively minor non-human species, generally occupying enclaves within human space, also sided with the Konsortium.

	After the Piray incident, the Ysau considered holding a last stand in their home planet, but wrote it off as their fleet was severely outnumbered and outgunned without any potential allies (especially after the incident). Instead, they opted to conduct a guerilla war throughout the galaxy, hoping that they could cause the Konsortium to withdraw if harassed enough. The decision was also intended to minimize civilian casualties and damage to their home system. The Ysau hoped that, like in the past, the Konsortium would ignore administration of the cloud and leave an informal power vacuum for the Ysau to fill.

The Ysau hoped that, like in the past, the Konsortium would ignore administration of the cloud and leave an informal power vacuum for the Ysau to fill.

	Regardless, as the Ysau's military forces dispersed into isolated and remote sectors and systems of the galaxy, the Konsortium's advance reached the [[Ysau (Ouranir Galaxy)\|Ysau]] system, and the remaining civilian government there surrendered without any bloodshed. After a surrender ceremony, the Konsortium declared an end to the conflict, and withdrew most of its expeditionary forces back to ~~the~~ Via Aylathiya for redeployment in more distant galaxies where tensions were high.

	In the initial few decades after the capitulation, the remaining fleets of the Konsortium received assorted surrenders from the many smaller allies of the Ysau and mopped up some remaining fleets of those who did not yet surrender. The exiled Ysau government and fleet, on the other hand, evaded detection and did not conduct many operations, choosing to hold onto the previously undersettled and underdeveloped furthermost corner of its territory as they slowly rebuilt part of their fleet. Many Ysau also moved there, as new colonies were established with caution to avoid detection. In occasion, Konsortium patrols which passed through the area would have their sensors jammed in order to ensure that the new colonies and industrial installations would not be detected. Due to the extreme secrecy in which the Ysau attempted to rebuild their fleet, the Konsortium did not realize that the Ysau remnants were getting stronger gradually for decades and then centuries, until around the 22,600s.

	By around 22,500, however, as the Ysau had rebuilt a considerable fraction of its fleets, it was getting bolder as it gradually began to launch more frequent and daring raids against key Konsortium locations, taking advantage of many hyperlanes that the Konsortium was not familiar with. By this time, a number of previously uninhabited systems scattered around the Ysau core regions had been colonized by humans, and these became targets for these raids, which often aimed at damaging key space infrastructure or even targeting colony-ships in transit. With civilian casualties beginning to mount, the new colonists began demanding that the Konsortium take action against the "Ysau terrorists". A number of small expeditions launched by local authorities did manage to destroy a number of Ysau stations and moon-bases, but the Ysau had intentionally launched assaults from old well-known bases and used ships which survived the initial conflict in the nebula in order to minimize the chances that the Konsortium would discover their new colonies. Their newly established bases and colonies, alongside newly launched ships, would remain largely in reserve during this period.

	In this period, a small number of Ysau ships also launched intergalactic expeditions to ~~the~~ Via Aylathiya, going semi-dormant and hiding on small moons, sustaining the crew with local resources as they planned to launch limited surgical strikes on wormholes or hyperlanes towards the Ouranir Galaxy.

	Despite the Ysau's efforts to avoid detection, as they continued to build up it became inevitable that their plan would be discovered, and hence they opted to launch their attack in 22,645, during a period when a large fraction of the Konsortium fleet had been withdrawn from the Ouranir Galaxy. Taken by surprise, a large proportion of the Konsortium's systems in former Ysau core regions were overrun and recaptured by the Ysau, however, the Konsortium fleets had largely opted to abandon their positions in order to retreat in good order. They retreated towards old Ysau last-resort defensive lines, which had not seen much fighting during the initial conflict and hence was still in good condition. The Ysau leadership recognized the difficulty of breaking through their own defensive positions and opted to instead consolidate their position first.

	The Ysau expeditions in ~~the~~ Via Aylathiya encountered mixed results. While some of the fleets managed to achieve some or all of its objectives, a significant proportion was destroyed by the Konsortium home defense units before they could do much damage, and the hyperlanes and wormholes to the Ouranir Galaxy remained operational, though with a severely reduced capacity. This did help the main Ysau force as the Konsortium reinforcements were heavily delayed and could only trickle in. However, the Ysau leadership received incorrect intelligence that the Konsortium's supply line to the Ouranir Galaxy had been crippled and hence thought that they had more time to prepare to destroy the Konsortium's local forces before reinforcements arrived. In fact, it would not be until 22,648, when the Konsortium had managed to increase the number of forces in the Ouranir Galaxy by 50 percent when the Ysau decided to continue their attack.

	The Ysau attack inflicted heavy damage on the undersupplied Konsortium fleet, but due to the large area of contact did not manage to achieve a significant breakthrough past the fortified systems which bought the Konsortium enough time to conduct an organized withdrawal towards the old defensive positions along the Tarantula Nebula. The fighting took a heavy toll on the Ysau fleets, which recognized that they could no longer defeat the Konsortium in offensive warfare. Instead, they recaptured their old systems, focusing on old Ysau territory and some limited acquisition of former allied space, and began to dig in. The Ysau hoped that their show of force would result in sufficient political pressure in Aegyn to force the Konsortium into the negotiating table.

	The political scene of the Konsortium at that time, however, did not enable such actions. Other developments beyond ~~the~~ Via Aylathiya's immediate neighborhood had tilted the political and popular climate in the galaxy to a much more jingoistic mindset, and Konsortium's leadership calculated that resorting to negotiations, an action which could be seen as capitulation to an inferior force, amounted to political suicide. Therefore, Ysau overtures were rejected, and as the wormholes were reconnected and hyperlanes repaired, the Konsortium fleets began once more massing in the human space of the Ouranir Galaxy.

	Even with such odds, the Ysau did not wish to surrender and mobilized their economy and population for a final, total defensive war. A much larger number of systems in their home territory were fortified with various anti-space defenses, and most of the civilian manufactories were converted to producing military materiel, particularly spacefaring vessels. Conscription was implemented, however, this caused a significant degree of political controversy as many Ysau civilians had enjoyed relative peace and formed economic links with the rest of the Konsortium, and did not see full independence as being worth another destructive conflict. Several internal rebellions broke out due to this, though the Ysau managed to largely stamp them down. Between 22,650 and 22,750, hundreds of such revolts on many important population centers were subdued.
