The Elwynnese Civil War was a conflict arising out of the collapse of the political unity in the Shirerithian nobility which had hitherto enabled the Benacian Reconquest and reached its highest expression in the Auspicious Occasion of 1651.
Timeline
- 01.VII.1660–10.IX.1661 & 06.XII.1661–11.XIV.1661
- Armin Jamal-Arminzadeh, suffering from a surfeit of liberal virtue, attempts to expel the Imperial Mother from the Elwynnese Senate;
- 02.VII.1660: Air strike on Eliria by ISAF elements loyal to Imperial Mother combined with cyber attack organised by government sponsored hacker collectives exploiting the Elwnet back door onto the Benacian Data Network knocks out the Elwynnese Senate and Principate;
- Imperial Mother removed from office by the Steward who subsequently takes personal command of the Ministry of Military Affairs;
- Daniyal Simrani-Kalirion, Isabella's first born son, defects from the Palatini Corps and raises the banner of revolt in Araxion on behalf of the Army of the Southern League;
- Icebear fanatics expel the XXIII Corps of the Republican Guard from Vijayanagara. Survivors defect to the Southern League, forming the nucleus of the 8th Army in Agnesia;
- 19.XIII.1660: Letters of safe conduct granted by the Army of the Southern League to candidates from parties not actively supporting the "Eliria Clique" for the Folksraad elections of 1660. Agnesia remained too disordered to host elections;
- 13.XIV.1660: Army of the Southern League completes process of organisation and armament;
- 25.XV.1660: Southern League forces from Vattnaland, raid the city of Frieden in Iserdia - targeting Republican Guard and Cudgeller barracks and prominent local collaborators with the AIP;
- Imperial Government attempts sanctions upon corporations suspected of affiliation with or sponsorship of parties in the conflict. Lady Dragonmoor perishes immediately afterwards under mysterious circumstances. ESB Group continues operations in defiance of the order;
- 10.IX.1661: Unilateral ceasefire by the Army of the Southern League as a gesture of goodwill for the Kaiser's coronation. Tentative peace talks follow;
- Landsraad revokes arrest orders issued by the Steward, effectively constituting an amnesty. Imperial Inquisitors attempt to claim that Imperial Law offers no scope for the Landsraad or any other public body to offer amnesty - some junior members amongst their number are consequently lynched in Shirekeep for their temerity by mobs well remunerated by unspecified corporate sponsors;
- 06.XII.1661: Army of the Southern League withdraws from its unilateral ceasefire after delegates are ordered to attend an illegal session of the Senate invoked by the Kaiser in Raynor's Keep without guarantees of safe conduct or exchange of hostages;
- Negotiations in Raynor's Keep continue, albeit the Southern League refuses to recognise the deliberations as a formal session of the Senate. Sticking point remains question of an Imperial Occupation, seen as an opportunistic power-grab by neighbouring Goldshire, question of Wintergleam resurfaces;
- 11.XIV.1661: Accord of the Leagues of the Elwynnese Republic on the Restoration of Peace signed on a barge at the midpoint between the Elwynnese and Goldshirian banks of the White Elwynn just north of Shirekeep. The Accord appoints three Commissioners of the Peace with responsibility for disbanding the Republican Guard, paying off veterans, and enforcing the peace between factions in a repartitioned Elwynn.
