The Turkey-Russia War,is a war between the nations of Turkey and Russia. It is part of the Central European Theater of World War V, and is a concurrent war with the Second Baltic War.
Background
Before hostilities began between both primary belligerents of the Turkey-Russia War, the countries of Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia (also known as ABC) were already at war with Belarus, Russia, and Ukraine as part of the First and Second Baltic Wars.
The First Baltic War was a military action against non-allied Belarus, leading to the Second Baltic War, in which Russian and Ukraine attacked Latvia and Estonia, both of which were ABC signatories.
During the Second Baltic War the countries of the ABC alliance had been largely contained by joint Terra/EDEN forces, however, as things began to change during the course of battle the paradigm of the conflict would change. Some ABC countries had been conquered by Russia, and the remaining ABC countries had been removed from Belarus.
Turkish advancement towards Russian land. Russian regions not attacked by Turkey is attacked by either Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, or Poland
Though Estonia's role in the war waned, the countries of Lithuania and Latvia continued aggressive actions against Russia, largely as a result of geographical changes resulting from the war. This ultimately led to a joint Lithuanian and Turkish wipe of Belarus off of the map for the second time in 2 months. Estonia's peace treaty with Russia allowed them the opportunity to pursue a war with Finland, which itself had been liberated from Sweden by Russian and Chinese forces during the Second Baltic War.
At the same time, Ukraine, being unable to establish a front with ABC after Belarus had been liberated, attacked Turkey during the Ukraine-Turkey War. The attack would be a catastrophic failure, eventually leading to Ukraine being conquered by Turkish and Polish forces.
After conquering EDEN-allied Ukraine, Turkey gained increased economic strength and a number of large territories. Because Russian forces were spread across multiple regions, Turkey sensed the opportunity to expand its power and do favors for their strongly affiliated members of the ONE alliance. This ultimately culminated in a Turkish invasion of Russia.
Meanwhile, Lithuania continued actions against Russia. As a result of the changing territories, both Turkey and Lithuania would be in a position to attack Russia from multiple fronts. This changing geography would also force Latvia out of direct actions against Russia, leaving just Lithuania and Turkey to continue the war.
