==Background==
The House of Apolônia-Vila in Anamara had been struggling for several years and had a genetic infertility problem. In December 1817, Afonso V became ill without an heir and named his relative the Altéan heir apparent Prince Félipé (later to be Félipé II of Altéa) as his successor. The potential unification of the Altéan and Anamaran empires was an alarming prospect to the Tripartite Alliance of the Sturian, Vosteibian and Ierigian Empires. 
Upon the death of Afonso V and in order to prevent a situation of Altéan global hegemony, the Alliance declared war demanding the recognition of Robert III of Vierbéliard. The decision by Robert to ally himself with the Tripartite Alliance, combined with existing tensions between the constituent countries, led Lourenne and Angoussons to withdraw from the United Kingdoms. Vinarelis continued to support the existence of the UK and declared their support for Vierbéliard and the Alliance.
