A protracted military action by
The King, which eventually formed
The United Kingdoms of Morrdovach.
The Fall of the Five Kingdoms
The Morrdovachian Wars resulted in the fall of five separate kingdoms, some via military action, some due to a lack of resistance.
Saardhoff: Home of the King
12028-12029 DE
Before
The King began his military conquest, he began first at home in
Saardhoff. A largely agrarian society, Saardhoff seemed eager to boulster its military might, and its citizenry took no issue with the conquering of their neighbours once the King's armies began to march.
Bahstwoud Forest
12029 DE
Bahstwoud Forest is a largely unpopulated region. The few, sparse settlements of the region offered no resistance to the marching Morrdovachian armies, and are left largely to their own devices, providing their lumber exports to the capital continue at the agreed-upon rates.
Koninkrijk
12029-12030 DE
Respite
After conquering Saardhoff, Bahstwoud, and Koninkrijk, the Morrdovachians spent several years shoring up their political support. During this time (12032 DE), the Morrdovachian King's betrothal to the Queen of Sarnja was negotiated. Her unexpected death caused war to resume.
Sarnja
12035 DE
Sarnja was originally destined to fall under Morrdovachian rule via marriage between the Morrdovachian King and
The Sarnjanian Queen. Unfortunately, the Queen died mere weeks before the wedding; many citizens accused the power-hungry Morrdovachians of having her assassinated, and a revolt soon followed.
While nobles fought amongst themselves to seize control of the region, the Morrdovachians marched across Sarnja, and quickly took the capital, Kress. The King then established Kress as his capital to ensure the continued obedience of Sarnja.
Stanislov: The Last Bastion of Civilization
12040 DE
Arguably the most difficult and certainly the longest battle in the Morrdovachian Wars was the conquering of @Stanislov, which took the Morrdovachians over five years of concentrated, active warfare.
