First Ra'Shain War

The First Ra'Shain War was a massive military conflict between the Ra'Shain Federation and the B'ra'Sha and human allies that led directly to the birth of the Alliance.
The Ra'Shain, egged on by the quasi-monarch of the time, a descendant of Grand Marshall Drelleth, attacked the B'ra'Sha intent on reclaiming their ancient home world of Paplin.
The B'ra'Sha were aided by their long standing allies the humans.
The result was the utter defeat of the Ra'Shain, and the ties built by the humans and B'ra'Sha working and fighting alongside led directly to the formal declaration of the Alliance less than ten years after the end of the war.
