For the early decades of its new-found city status Springdale trod a neutral passive line, avoiding conflict with its neighbour city states. Border battles against Thakrian legions to the west and northwest were inconclusive but Thakria's primary focus is against Mercinae to the south and an uneasy truce seems to have been struck up. To the east Springdale face a less menacing prospect in the battle to expand its sphere of influence. Parrius remains smaller than its neighbour city-states and Springdale have taken advantage of this to push their legions into what was previous Parrian territory. Though the Parrians have renewed their military efforts on their western and northwestern borders the Springdalians still hold the numerical advantage.
Skirmishes continue to crop up on a regular basis but as yet no full-scale conflict has ensued.
