Zabzimek is a Gorgas province that broke away after the Gorgas/Donovian War 19 years ago. Gorgas tried to take the province back, but Donovia sent in forces to back Zabzimek and sunk one quarter of the Gorgas fleet. They have defended the breakaway province ever since. The province is home to many pro-Gorgas and pro-Zabzimek militias and other irregular forces that operate freely inside Zabzimek and neighboring Gorgas territory. This culminated in a six-day war between Zabzimek and Gorgas after pro-Gorgas forces took over parts of Zabzimek three years ago. Zabzimek won. There is also a history of massacres and ethnic cleansing aimed at the Gorgas citizens. To put it simply, Zabzimek is a perfect fictional place for American troops to train in all kinds of interesting, and sometimes gruesome, scenarios.
