Berlintini I's Great War of Coalition
The massive war that the Berini Empire and it's vassals fought against the East Hu-Balai Defense Pact(EHBDP), The Unified Kindom and the Guntartar Khaganate.
The Conflict
Outcome
Millions dead and many towns and cities were destroyed. Some families were wiped out and had no relatives left to mourn them. Tens of thousands of people disappeared (in chaotic situations like this people can get lost and not be found again), some of whom were only found decades later.
The sheer amount of armies and their sizes also ravaged the contested land. Mercenaries and underpaid armies plundered, foraging armies and their pack animals and beasts of war stripped land of it's resources and millions of people starved or turned to banditry in their wake. Young men were levied as soldiers and women and children were in from raided or ra aged communities were sold into slavery.
Aftermath
The North Yamuhi Steppe descended into anarchy and the Berini Empire's eastern border was pulled back to Toma. Bashur eventually recovered and extended it's territories. Ushar, Pali, Chatal, Yunar, Huran and Saloo became independent.
