The Mevanian-Florian War Military Conflict in Orienta | World Anvil

The Mevanian-Florian War

The Mevanian-Florian War is a military conflict between The Velvet Coast city states of Mevania and Floria.

The Conflict

Prelude

Since the collapse of The Imperial League, the city states of Mevania and Floria have been rivals, both claiming to be the rightful successor states of the Imperial Mandate.

Deployment

In the leadup to the conflict, Mevania began conducting military exercises as well as mustering bands of foreign mercenaries, notably Dwarves of Clan Waraxe, goliaths from Novaya and even an outfit of Tabaxi scouts from Alamani.   In response, Floria issued raising notices to its levies roster to supplement its standing army. There was some resistance to the call up, with roughly half of the Florian levy force yet to report for duty.

Battlefield

The Engagement

As of mid Rising Sun 201IE, engagements have been limited to skirmishes in the farmland stretching between the two cities. Mevania's army is on the move, seeking to decisively engage and destroy the Florian Forces. Meanwhile, Floria seems content to keep their forces behind the city walls, sallying out only in small bands to harass the advancing Mevanian Force.
