The Great Fuscum War, also called the Six Years' War, was a global conflict fought primarily between the Anean Empire and the alliance of the Yuktobanian Tsardom and the Kingdom of Estovakia. The war began initially as an aristocratic strife for influence over Estovakia's affairs, but ended in a wave of independence and republican revolutionary movements across the Anean and Verusan continents.
Revolutions and aftermath[]
In late 1918 and 1919, the war between the Aneans and the Yuktobanians drew to a close. The conflict left the populace in both empires weary and disillusioned. Anti-monarchist and pro-republican resistance movements began to form: the radical Red faction in Yuktobania and the Sons of Aurelius in Anea.
In Yuktobania, the radical Red faction overthrew and massacred the aristocracy in Cinigrad. This upheaval ignited a fierce civil war between pro-republican forces and Tsarist loyalists. The Red faction came out victorious and established the Union of Yuktobanian Republics.
Simultaneously, Anea also fell into civil war. In Gracemeria, the skies erupted in chaos as biplanes and giant airships clashed between the Anean imperial loyalists and the Sons of Aurelis. Amidst the burning streets, the Sons of Aurelius rammed a landship through the Imperial Palace gates. The rebels faced no resistance, as the Anean emperor awaited them alone next to the golden statue of Aurelius II. Not wishing to see anymore spilled blood among Emmerians in front of the Golden King, the emperor abdicated, but he was subsequently executed on the spot by a young rebel. The Second Republic of Emmeria was established, while the surviving members of the Anean royal family exiled to the Dominion of Wellow.
The aftermath of the Great Fuscum War disrupted the balance of powers on the Verusan continent and began a new wave of republication revolutions across the strange, real world.
