Now Regional Allies, are actually Historic Enemies?
Eryconian Historians believe that they have uncovered new evidence suggesting a series of wars between 1234-1429 that occurred between the Prplia and Erynia and Draconia, were believed to be mythological, might have happened.
During the era of 1234-1423, the Queendoms of Eo, and Vusq had not unified into Prplia. Neither had the Kingdoms of Draconia, or Erynia unified. This created for a lot of tension between the two sides.
As the Historians describe it, the first war lasted 8 years (1234-1242), and was between Eo and Erynia. Eo was the aggressor, as they were on a religious conquest of Erynia, and sent an inquisition that later spiraled into a war. Not much is known about how many battles took place, or how many fatalities occurred.
The Second war, Vusq vs Draconia, lasted 6 years (1423-1439). Draconia had intercepted a vital Vusqish trading line, to create their own. As intense naval battles became more and more catastrophic, with Vusq taking around 4k fatalities and Draconia taking around 2k, Draconia decided to cease, as the Vusqish forces furiously defended their lines.
Today, the now unified nations of Prplia, and Erynia and Draconia, are major regional allies with several trade routes, and tonnes of foreign relations. As they learn more about their history, it bring them closer together knowing that the difference between the nations have changed into similarities.
