Invasion of Solitude

The Invasion of Solitude was a prolonged engagement when the Lirrachan Republic invaded Solitude in order to annex them from the Empire of Tyris and set up an independent Republic. The Empire was not fond of this idea naturally, and what was thought to be a quick win turned into a dragging war leading to heavy military and civilian casualties.
After constant back and forth over the Capital, Solitude, the Tyretians eventually recaptured what was left of the burning, shelled city, leading to a huge refugee crisis. Lirrach suffered heavy losses after a reinforcement fleet was waylaid and sunk by the Empress Epalina.
