By [[2160]], the conflicting beliefs of the Friedens and Koslovics had sparked a full-scale war between the two factions. The battles waged between the two factions were dubbed the [[Jovian Moons Campaign]]s, signifying the theater of operations they were fought in. At the outset of the war, the Friedens attacked the [[United Nations colonial advisers]] on [[Io]]. The [[United Nations]] could do little in response, since the [[United Nations Space Command]] was not yet formed at this point. The death toll of the Jovian Moons Campaigns was substantial, but by late [[2161]], the fighting subsided and there was peace for several months. Some dared to speculate that the worst had passed. The conflict had not vanished, however; it had only relocated. In [[2162#February|February of 2162]], however, a series of bombings in [[South America]], on [[Earth]], began a nineteen-month series of conflicts that would come to be known as the [[Rainforest Wars]]. Engagements spread across the continent and before long violence between the warring factions had been reignited throughout the [[Sol]] system. | By [[2160]], the conflicting beliefs of the Friedens and Koslovics had sparked a full-scale war between the two factions.

It was near the close of the [[Rainforest Wars]] in [[2163#September|2163]] that | It was near the close of the [[Rainforest Wars]] in [[2163#September|2163]] that the Friedens actually began to fight amongst themselves. Reformers within the movement wished to bring an end to the fighting by negotiating with the newly-formed [[United Nations Space Command]]. It is likely that they predicted their cause would not last much longer following the establishment of such a powerful [[United Nations]] military organization. These [[Neo-Friedenism|Neo-Friedenists]], hoped that a peaceful solution could be reached whereby their movement still retained some measure of autonomy over some territories in the [[Sol]] system. This splinter faction originally appeared to be just as opposed to the [[UN]] as the rest of the Friedens, but developments during the close of the Rainforest Wars finally pushed them to directly oppose not the UN, but the larger Frieden movement.<ref name="tcp">'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 113''</ref> | ||
In [[2163#November|November of 2163]], the Friedens suffered a critical loss, as their leader, [[Nadja Mielke]], was assassinated on her way to a command center in the Europan city of [[Pelagon]]. This enraged the Friedens, and in [[2163#December|December]] they retaliated against the [[Koslovics]] with nearly all military assets at their disposal. A large-scale [[Mars Campaign|campaign]] against [[Argyre Planitia]], the hub of Koslovic activity on [[Mars]], obliterated the city within hours.<ref>'''Halo Mythos''', ''page 50''</ref> The [[UNSC]] entered the fray in [[2164#January|January of 2164]], and it was then that the [[Interplanetary War]] officially began. When UNSC forces began to approach the Delambre crater on Luna, which the Friedens had established control over, Neo-Friedenists within the ranks took up arms against the rest of the group.<ref>'''Halo: The Cole Protocol''', ''page 113''</ref> The resulting bloodbath was dubbed the [[Battle of Delambre]]. [[Europa]], [[Io]], [[Ganymede]], and [[Callisto]] all saw massive invasions by [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] forces during the [[Interplanetary War]], resulting in the destruction of hundreds of Frieden bases and weapon caches. The last of the Friedens fought savagely under [[Oscar Bauer]], nephew of [[Nadja Mielke]], but by mid-[[2169]], little remained of the movement. At long last, the [[United Nations]] penned the [[Callisto Treaty]]: a ceasefire agreement that gave the UNSC complete military jurisdiction in all colonial territories. The treaty was signed in [[2170#March|March of 2170]] on the Jovian moon of Callisto.<ref name="timeline"/> | In [[2163#November|November of 2163]], the Friedens suffered a critical loss, as their leader, [[Nadja Mielke]], was assassinated on her way to a command center in the Europan city of [[Pelagon]].
