Five Year Peace

"For five years, my mother had to rebuild after the succession crisis that led my family to where I stand today. Five years before people started to leave our Commonwealth out of jealousy." -Empress Elian CzongorThe Five Year Peace was a stretch of time between the Third and Fourth Cironean Civil Wars that was a time to temporarily rebuild and calm down after the Czongor Dynasty came to power. During this time, the Cironean Commonwealth seemed to grow quiet. The rebuilding process, short and easy due to the low civilian casualties, seemed to reinforce the status at the time for the Cironeans.
How wrong they were.
In the other reaches of Cironea where planets had pledged allegiance to one family that lost, secession began to brew. Eventually, the plans of each group were put into action.Surviving family members of the families that lost the Third Civil War announced their rule over lands they originally had, as separate monarchies. Those who were of other families that died out or such quickly overthrew their planetary capital governments and installed their own states.
Cironea was engulfed in war once again.
